An rpg to hold me over? : Othor Games

» Tue Dec 06, 2011 11:36 am

Hey everyone, i was just wondering if you all had any good rpg games you play. I've tried The Witcher 2, and i can't believe people say it's better than the TES games. (It's good, it's just a different kind of game)

I just need a game to hold me over 'til skyrim.

If you all know a good sandbox game feel free to post it.

Ahhh good suggestion but i've already play it lol. I can't believe GTA IV wasn't better (Gameplay wise)..

If san andreas had GTA IV's graphics, that would be sweet!

Oh. Sorry. You said you wanted a good RPG. :wink_smile:

I'm playing Oblivion and Fallout a lot right now but when Gears of War 3 comes out then I'll probably be playing that until Skyrim comes out.

Avadon: the Black Fortress, Deus Ex, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Oblivion, Morrowind, Fallout 3, New Vegas, and even though its not an rpg, Magicka. That game is soooo freakin fun. :bonk:

I don't have any RPGs to suggest, but I've been playing Hitman: Blood Money for a few days and I'm loving it. It's half-sandbox. Or Assassin's Creed 2, which is story driven open world but not an RPG.

I'll look into these games, great suggestions, more are welcome! Thanks everyone.

Mass Effect. Undoubtedly one of the best rpg series ever. Pick up the 2nd one as well after you finish the first. Cant wait until the 3rd one comes out, not until March though.

Alundra

FF12

Two worlds (first, not the crappy sequal)

Daggerfall

Gothic 1
Gothic 2
Risen

Only other good open-world RPGs I can think of.

» Tue Dec 06, 2011 11:30 pm

Star Wars Knights of the old republic 1 and the second one, the sith lords, are both really fun games.

» Tue Dec 06, 2011 2:44 pm

It's not sandbox, but Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines is one of my favourite games. It does have very large explorable areas.

» Tue Dec 06, 2011 12:45 pm

Plenty of... Good old Games.

BG, BGII SoA/ToB, Arcanum, Icewind Dale, NWN, etc

STALKER. also the new Deus Ex is amaaaaazing go hit that [censored].

also go play Daggerfall if you haven't. get Ultima Underworld too it's like $5 on GoG and it's the best thing since bread (not even sliced bread, just bread in general).

» Tue Dec 06, 2011 3:56 pm

Arcanum

Ultima Underworld

Seconding these as well.

Ahhh good suggestion but i've already play it lol. I can't believe GTA IV wasn't better (Gameplay wise)..

If san andreas had GTA IV's graphics, that would be sweet!

Vice city's not half bad either, you should try it, I had to much fun with that game.

So many video games, 0.0

Edit: (I literally have like 12 tabs up right now)

This. DQ8 is one of the best RPGs I've ever played. I love that game.

Speaking of classics, did anyone suggest "Planescape:Torment" yet? It's not a sandbox RPG but it's a classic.

I'm currently replaying VTM:Bloodlines, as a Malkavian this time, and it's great (though it's lost some of its immersion for me after playing it several times). I'd second the suggestion by Princess Stomper to buy this one someday.
