^ haha, I dunno why that made me laugh.

Whats wrong with FF? Don't you like tunr based strategy, if not... try Morrowind(xbox,pc), Kingdom Hearts(ps2) or Dungeon Siege(pc). Those games dont have turn based fighting, so they're a bit more fast paced. None of them have guns though.

Morrowind is a non-linear RPG meaning the story goes the way you want (although there is a slight story line to it). It is a medievel style game, pretty fun and really big.

Kingdom Hearts, I love this game, lots of sword combat, but the game is disney, so no guns or gore! But yet, pretty decent fun (You still have major bad-asses in this game,. like Cloud and.... dum dum dummm.. Sephiroth)

Dungeon Siege... Cant say anything about it, as my friend has it and he's been loving it lately. Seems a little like Morrowind.

Hope that helps!

Try CastleVania: Symphony of the Night. It's not a turn-based RPG, but it's full of non-stop gameplay and easily one of my favorite games ever.

Looks like you're looking for somthing that isn't truely an RPG then... But i'll point you in the direction of Deus Ex and System Shock II because they have role-playing elements and First Person Shooter action... they are fast only if you choose to play them as fast (as opposed to being a stealthy ninja/hacker), though all out action is possible, it's not always the best alternative in these games, especially in the later which is:

- deeper
- scary
- slightly older and PC only
- a complete biatch to find for sale.
