    Hi. Just started playing Black and White and I've completely forgotten how to make people into builders, although I've got breeders and foresters etc. Anyone help?

    No no no. You need to throw rocks AT people next to building sites... or was it drop buildings on people... no, wait, drop creature poop ON people while they're outside of buildings. That'll get them building pretty darn quick. Might keep them indoors though...

    It's not exactly an RPG. It's more of an, uh, God sim/strategy game/electra-pet thingie.

    But the idea of a role playing game is that you're playing as a character. In B&W you're playing as God. So it's an RPG :lol:

    Yeah... and in Doom you're playing a space marine on a quest to rid Mars of demons. So it's an RPG :p

    OK now stick to the topic please. As Abomination indicated B&W is not considered part of the CRPG genre.
