Time is relative, so you can make more of it if you really want to 
BTW, forgot to mention, JA 2 Deidranna lives & Urban Chaos (once it's done) are free to dl - just in case someone didn't know that allready.

I think I classify myself as an RPer only because Fallouts are in my top 3 of all times. Elite would be there as well, for sentimental reasons.
I don't think there is a game that I played more than Fallout 2 (perhaps one of those MMORPGs but that doesn't count).
If we allow MMORPGs in this category, I'd like to nominate AO as well. I always had a love-hate relationship with that game, but I have to admit, no game before or after took my breath away as much as it did. I used to have photo albums from AO. Everywhere I went I'd take loads and loads of screenshots. And would actually peruse them later... I know it's twisted and perverted, but damn that game was beautiful. Nothing else going on for it, but damn it was beautiful. I think one of the most memorable moments from any game was in AO, when I... ahem, my character... went swimming with someone he met. Under a large waterfall, during a beautiful sunset. That was so amazing...

Best in its time, would clearly be every Ultima, especially 4 thru 7b (Serpents Isle) They set the standard with each new game. Underworld 1&2 would likely come a close second, with a passing reference to both Bards Tale and Wizardry.
Best all time for my money, is Planescape Torment. A close second would probably be Fallout.
I'm surprised no-one suggested one of my all time favourite games, though I don't classify it as a pure RPG. System Shock. That is still one incredible game.

Best RPG of its time: Wow, that's a catchy question... Every "time" has its best RPG, right? But for argument's sake, I would say Ultima IV. U4 was probably the most daring game in RPG history, very innovative as well, even by today's standards. A game that is not based on saving the world, OR defeating an arch nemesis? Wow!
Best RPG of ALL time: eeep! That's hard... But I guess I would have to say Planescape: Torment. The concept, the gameplay, the characters, the story... I could go on, but almost everything in that game was perfect, which makes you wonder how come it didn't have more of a comercial success than it did. But if you like RPGs, do yourself a favour and pick this one up!
Runner ups: Ultima series in its entirety (except for U9...), and Darklands.

best RPG of its time - older: Realms of Arkania 2
best RPG of its time - newer: Wizardry 8
best RPG of all time I won't choose yet 'cause I have "only" 9 years of RPG-experience...in my opinion one should consider 20years or so for that |

You might look in the Gothic 2 forum here on RPGDot for news - or check GothicDot from time to time (the RPGDot hosted site dedicated to Gothic).
So far, release is planned for October.
