Pretty Much Black Isle's Entire catalog(except for BG Dark Alliance, never played, don't care).

Though, the only one where it Really gives you complete Freedom is PS:T.

You can beat Fallout without killing anyone too, But It's HARD.

and i mean, HARD.

EDIT: oh, i don't know about Icewind Dale, Never played it.

[QUOTE="Johnny_Rock"]

RPG without combat is called an adventure game.

Why? I can't find that definition? To me RPG is the opportunity to customize a character to make it unique in the gameworld and then have the possibility to make different choices in the game that changes the storyline. And I don't mean just skill customization, but also character look and personality customization. Can't get that in an adventure game.

I mean, it's great and all that you believe an RPG game is as you described "for you". However, the fact that you can find hardly any RPG games at all that actually follow your definition sort of negates your definition does it not? It matters what developers think RPGs are...as they are the ones that actually make the games and most of them seem to disagree with you on the definition.
