Do i need to be good at math to play rpgs?

Answer 1

No ... math-skills can help in RPGs that involve a lot of number crunching, but most RPGs have options in place, like auto-leveling and things that help you have fun without having to compute numbers.

I would stay away from hardcore Dungeons and Dragons games, like the Neverwinter Nights series. Those games have a steep learning curve, especially if you aren't familiar with D&D game mechanics.

But there many kinds of RPGs out there, it's a very versatile genre. You want to look at hack & slash action RPGs, or Japanese-style RPGs (like the Dragon Quest or Final Fantasy series), or even puzzle RPGs like Puzzle Quest.
