Because I got bored to shit one day and got addicted.
Storylines draw me in. And think about it a little. They have the largest fanbases, they are the biggest sellers, and a lot of games have RPG elements in them, so they must be doing something right.

I prefer Avernum over Exile. :P

Bah! Tiles all the way. You can take your fancy isometric graphics and stick them... um, I think you get the drift.

Anyway. My answer is: These days, I don't play RPGs. They bore me. Exile 3 was my first RPG, and I got about halfway through it before getting bored and quitting. That was basically it for me and RPGs.

Morrowind sucked me in for a while with promises of a huge, compelling world to explore, but eventually I realised it was just a thin sheen over the surface, got bored, and quit.
