I admit nothing but armor +1 is always good.

I think you can buy an external floppy drive. If that fails, then find another way to get the game since you already own the original disk.

or +4 str +4 stam leather belt

NEVER! You are grasbing some older shit. =P

Lack of a job means no discretionary funds to purchase an external drive :/ [or anything else not necessary to live].

Haven't seen it on any abandonware sites, but I haven't looked too hard either [considering how "gray" those sites are in legality]

I wouldn't say I'd go to extreme lengths to find 1% drop rate type of things but will I will do in games where the engine permits is pile all my phat lewt in a room -- Ultima 7 being a good example. You can stack all of your gold bricks and gems and piles of coins!

I spent 200 hours on suikoden 2.. on a single game and I have finished it multiple times with different character setups.

I'm still wishing Suikoden 2 comes out on the PSN store. Only played part one and that game rocked so much. Finding that new rune or recruiting that new character which is a couple of levels higher then your party, an ugly but perfect game! Going to start with part 2 soon. :-)

the best loot rpg is neverwinter nights series, diablo2, morrowing, oblivion, arcanum, homm3( its turn based strategy, but its treasures are more than welcome anytime :) )
sacred and titan quest would be in the middle.. :)

Sadly, rpg with worst loot system would be definately:
witcher and witcher 2
mass effect and mass effect 2
torchlight
witcher and witcher2 should give you some loot, but its almost identical to mass effect games where loot is not existant, and boring, not worth anything...

Come on! No one to cite Two Worlds, here?? The two main interested of the game are wandering in the open world and looting and looting and looting! ^_^

Fuck yeah, I'm a loot whore. I looted the absolute hell out of Morrowind. The ground near the creeper and mudcrab merchants was covered in loot, and that's before you take into account the fact that each instance of an item on the floor actually represented dozens of that item.

As for Fallout 3 I was lucky the game didn't break after shoving a certain number of items into one storage place as my locker was kind of full, to put it mildly.

In Stalker I predictably got the greedy ending if I went to the monolith (instead of the more virtuous alternative).

Looting is sinful....you must repent!!!!
Do so now, by handing over everything you got...to me....for safe keeping ;P

EDIT: as for the best... man, I'd have to go with Morrowind, the world is just so huge, the game is just soo fun, there is just so many things to have donated to me....for safe keeping you see...It gets my vote...though technically games like Diablo and Torchlight and Titan's Quest and Sacred have a bunch more loot...They don't immerse me into the game world so much and thus my lust for the loot is not as high
*Wipes drool from face
sorry.

Between farming rep and rare mounts, I don't think any game does it "better".

Does this mean you're a huge fan of Diablo II?
