Lol'd
I go with Thief/Rogue almost all the time, though. Especially if the game has good stealth/sneak mechanics.
Also, you left out Archer/General Ranged.

lol'd because it's true. Mages are always rigodamndiculously overpowered. OH LOL BUT THEY HAVE GLASS HEALTH! Yes that's such a weakness when nothing can hit them since they have ridiculous range, almost always have the best AoE attacks, and can easily stun/hold you off and make you fucking useless.
With the exception of maybe Mabinogi, but Mabinogi doesn't have classes, just skills.

Traditionally, there's supposed to be a rock-paper-scissors relationship between the three archetypes (Fighter/Rogue/Mage). Mage blows up/disables/stuns/whatever fighters, rogues can sneak/out-burstdamage mages, fighters can out-tank/win in the long run against rogues. The problem comes with most RPGs not developing the sneaking/burst damage aspect of rogues enough, so mages have free reign to dominate things..

Yeah, I don't mind an extended rock-paper-scissors effect with more classes, but most fail to do this. At the very least then, make it so every class has strengths and weaknesses to certain aspects of any other class- so it'd come down to who's more skillful. Which means, MMORPG's in general need to be a shitton more skill-based, and regular RPG's need somewhat intelligent AI.

Yeah, I've always seen them as similar, really. Kind of an unnecessary separation IMO.

Hammerdins are for pussies. Real men play chargers, or orb/lightning sorcs, or WW barbs. Anything else is wearing your vagina on your sleeve. >:[

Dover got his butt kicked by Hammerdins with their harlequinn caps and SoJ's etc.. all through Diablo and is now mad because his Druid sucked.
Also, Vagina Sleeves are awesome.

Nah, I have a Hammerdin, but they're EZ-mode. Hammerdins make Diablo EZPZ. I try not to use him.

They're different enough for D&D (The basis for all traditional Western RPGs, whether they care to admit it or not) to make the distinction.

True, though their general playstyle is similar enough to the usual Fighter/Warrior class to be grouped together. I mean, if you were to take those choices off, you'd instantly got for Fighter/Warrior as the closest possible (and obviously, you can't list EVERY single class from every RPG...).
