RPGs are great

by J • 15 Feb 2010, 08:45 • Journals

Mornings,

So yesterday was the day that I finally completed The Witcher. Have to say it was top5 RPGs I've ever played, interesting plot, great combat system, great atmosphere and lot's of stuff init if you try to complete everything like I did.

Overall the last 12months in front of the pc have been great since got myself back to SP games again with oblivion after a long absence (since 2003-4). After the army I had a pleasure of adventure in the worlds of dragon age and the witcher. Both that I have finished now. (Not the oblivion main quest since it sucks but all the factions in it too)

All of the above have been great experiences. What RPG are you waiting for from the upcoming titles and what are you currently playing? Thoughts about it?

And to the end, my top5, not in any specific order:
Baldurs Gate 2, Morrowind, Dragon Age: Origins, The Witcher, Fallout 2

ps. IF you know that there would be another Role Playing Game coming to PC that is based on Forgotten Realms world, please share your info!

morrowind :))))
great game

Torment, Baldur's Gate 1 & 2, Knights of the Old Republic > all

light or dark side? ;>

Parent

dark :d

Parent

always ;]

7-8 years ago I bought a pc magazine that had walkthroughs for 5 rpgs. Can recall deus ex, bg2, icewind dale and planetscape from it. Tornment got very good grades, especially the plot. Never got into it though and I think now it's a bit too late :( Can remember some floating eye though !

Parent

It was a skull actually :P Torment is older than 7-8 years, still manages to be one of the greatest games ever for me, so if you're really into good crpgs you should give it a try..

Parent

If you like old games, you should give Might & Magic a try! (Turn based, PoV RPG game if I remember it right)

Parent

There is coming an expension for Dragon Age soon! =)
And RPG's,

Diablo LoD? =)
Dungeon siege II (Takes some time to finish aswell)
Sacred 2 : Fallen Angel (Long game aswell, but quite awesome graphics once you understand how to play it)

You named hack'n'slash games more than rpg.:(

Parent

Mhh, those are the best RPG's (for me though ;D)

Parent

That's cool :D if I can suggest you something, try playing Planescape: Torment, it's pure epicness ;d

Parent

Read some about it on wikipedia now, will try to find a nice download link and try to play it in my vacation (If my GF allows me :D)

Parent

hehe, ye, you would have to tell her you're going on vacations for 2 weeks :D

Parent

Well.. the problem is she is going to "live" in my house for 1 week :P So telling her that I am going on a vacation for 2 weeks wont be a good idea ;D

Parent

finally someone who knows the difference :D

PS: fallout > * :)
(And maybe septerra core - but that one is a bit tricky with all those combinations at quests you have to try before you manage to advance :P)

Parent

how soon :p

Parent

Lemme check my e-mail :D

March the 18th.
You should check it out on the EA website ;)

Parent

looking good :P

Parent

Ye, nice! Can use my character from Origins, god insta pwn-age with my gear :D

Parent

whats hard about sacred? :D

1. dont take the portals
2. rape with your main char
3. ????
4. profit

Parent

The way how you aim with things etc, didn't get that at first :P but it was quite easy when i understood that yes.

Parent

Baldur's Gate 2- oh yes
i love books with drizzt, forgotten realm rocks

if u liked fallout2 try arcanum, not as good as f2 but nice to play
check divine divinity also, such a great game

LIONHEART FUCKIN THE WORST GAME EVER :CCCCCCCCCCCCC

I've read all the forgotten realms books which have been translated to Finnish. I have completed Arcanum, sold the game to my friend after, was good though! Also I've played Lionheart, the first chapter gave an idea that it would be a great game but after that so stupid dungeon grinding that didn't actually finish it.. I am quite sure that I was almost at the end.

Parent

tell me about it

ive stoped play lio after 1st chapter too ;p mo money!

Parent

Lionheart was simply designed bad. Nox is a way better game out of the same style of games.

Arcanum was very interesting but a bit too easy. Problem might have been that I farmed myself to max level too early and the rest of the game couldn't offer any tough situations :<

Parent

Nox, hehe :D Thats a while almost forgot that game =o

Parent

KotOR 1 & 2, Falout 1 & 2

Though when it comes to SP games I'm like coming back to it. Was doing MP for years now with small breaks for KotOR or something and now I'm totally in love with Half Life 2 (did main and Episode One, currently dlling Episode Two just can't fucking wait this game is so 1337)

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't KotOR some star wars based game or am I confusing it with an other game now?

Parent

Yep you're right, it's full name is Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. If you don't dislike the star wars universe it's a kickass game.

Parent

Haven't really checked it out yet, but when I still played WoW one of the guild members couldn't stop talking about KotOR aswell :P

Parent

Heh every few months I have this unstoppable urge to finish KotOR II twice, once dark side and once light, I just can't resist! It's just the plot is really well built there(though if you didn't play any of these before it'd be better to start with the first KotOR obviously, it's more kinda straightforward with the plot - I mean when you do someything that you think is good and righteouss it is most likely gonna be like this, in the sequel it's not that obvious and black&white, can you dig it? ;) )

Parent

Ye I see, think ill have to watch some youtube trailers or so when I am home (Youtube blocked @ school >.>) And see if the game is something for me ;D

Parent

My mate hates star wars and anything that came with it, and totally loved this game.

Also >mass effect< is somewhat similar, and also pretty awesome.

Parent

The game is called "also" or??

Parent

there was suppose to be mass effect, somehow i didn't type it.

just woke up :D

Parent

Ah okei, Also didnt check out that game aswell, but somewhere I read that it contained Amors etc so I assumed it was some sort of RPG game :P

Parent

mass effect one has more rpg elements than 2 does i guess, but both are great

Parent

Downloading KotOR 2 now ;D

Parent

HF then :)

Parent

they should make more games like morrowind, morrowind>*

I am quite sure that if oblivion would have come out a year or two after morrowind, it would have been a HUGE hit. Now it simply wasn't that special anymore when it came out, an updated version of morrowind but doesn't have that nostalgic feeling init..

The oblivion world could have needed a small adjustment to saturation, a bit darker colors :|

Parent

morrowind is just bigger and better. still looking forward for tes5 tough, hope it will be abit darker idd and made for pc.

Parent

But morrowinds main problem was that it lacked content. I didn't like the fact that all the caves and dungeons looked exactly the same. That is where Oblivion beats it.

Nevertheless, it was still an amazing game and spent hundreds of hours to collect treasures to my apartment :D

Parent

but it had alot more guild n factions n stuff to discover + main story line was 1000x better.

Parent

Same here, my house was a huge alchemy lab:D

Parent

That isn't even an opinion

It's a fact

Parent

check books about the wticher

RPG'S? THERES A FUCKING ROCKET IN HIM SIR(!).

I was sure that I had seen RPG in another context as well :D

Parent

kotor is the best rpg ive ever played on pc.

I CONCUR!

Parent

loyal fan of Diablo-series, waiting for III to come out :x

Been waiting for it for 2 years now or so...

Parent

ye same, they're not making any progress, every 3 months they upload a new
screenshot and that's it. Played D2 LoD for 3 years or so :)

Parent

Ye... They are slow... guess WoW is more important to them! I and Monte played Diablo 2 LoD for a couple of years aswell. Its getting really boring now :x so I cba to play it :P

Parent

NEEEEEEEEEERD

Parent

WHINER, GA VERDER MET JE PATIENCE TOURNAMENT.

Parent

al gewonnen

Parent

Fu nerd.

Parent

Ben je er vanavond ?

Parent

ja ben er @ 8

Parent

Knights of the old republic 1 and 2 (1 more than 2, but its still good)
mass effect 1 and 2 (just finnished the 2nd part and its just as awesome)

these games are seriously way better than the witcher...

try torchlight

pretty good game

KotOR and Fallout 3 without any doubts
