Good games for beginners/your first RPG?
Parkour Lewis:
Unless you count raiders of the Lost Ark on the atari 2600, then probably Dragon Warrior was my first RPG.
For the beginner, I'd recommend one of the Fable games. They're easy enough for sonmeone who's never played and RPG before, and action-based so it won't throw you into the deep end of RPG games without a few lessons first, and there's no way you can accidentally screw yourself ona character build like with Skyrim or Oblivion. Also the Fable games are basically on all plarforms since you weren't specific to console or PC.
Nikolai:
Mass Effect was my first RPG, largely due to the fact that I have been a late bloomer to the gaming scene. My latest was Fable III, which I found to have an somewhat dissatisfying ending considering the amount of trouble I went through to have a "Good" playthrough. It was also incredibly short. That being said, I wouldn't mind a couple more playthroughs to see how the different choices effect the outcome.

Thanks everyone! Lots of good info here :-)
I've got other options but none that my computer will actually run. I'm just starting to work on building another one....it's about time, really. I've upgraded bits and pieces here and there so almost nothing is original, but I've had this computer since '03. :-o
As far as what I'm looking for- I'm really intrigued by character development and want to be able to explore that. I think I'm gonna give Diablo II a try. Nick played it for years while he was waiting for III to come out so I've definitely got someone to help me out if I need it. I think playing offline might be a better bet for me initially because I don't want to deal with people being asshats while I'm learning something new. They can be asshats after I (kinda) know what I'm doing.

If you want something straight forward that's easy to play, go with barbarian. Don't do necromancer on your first run (because getting your skeleton army stuck in narrow hallways is the worst). Otherwise, have fun!

Oh god
I loved being a Priest of Rathma, but...the catacombs of Lut Gholein....
