RPG Clichés That Need To Die
Okay, so we're getting to the point now where ripping on RPG cliché is in itself cliché. What does that become? RPG Cliché deconstructionism or something? Everybody's done it (including me), but hey... that won't stop us from doing it ONE MORE TIME, right?

IGN goes once more into the RPG Cliché breach, dear friends:

RPG Clichés That Need To Die

Basically, it comes down to the good ol' fashioned formula plot, plus standard RPG conventions that have defied logic for so very long it doesn't really matter anymore.
