"Like its predecessors, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim offers an almost endless amount of content, containing everything from main quests and secondary missions to miscellaneous objectives and favours. There’s so much to do that one could easily spend hundreds of hours questing, learning and improving, providing an experience that is long-serving, incredibly addictive and very well-made. In fact, those are some of the key reasons as to why the game launched to such a large amount of buzz, as well as why its core experience hasn’t disappointed fans of the long-running role-playing franchise."
Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
A new Partner Spotlight Sale is now live on the Switch eShop, including Skyrim, lowest price ever for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, and more.
Is this a must have piece of DLC ? or a big sissy addition to a great game?
anyway, imgoing back to my doll house LoL : P
