"There have been some fantastic RPGs over the years, from Pillars of Eternity to The Witcher 3. That’s for sure. There’s something quite special about the RPG genre. For me, the genre itself is almost enough to tempt me into buying a game."
Virtuos is currently working on a multiplatform Unreal Engine 5 remake, which is rumored to be The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.
I thought they’d go for Morrowind first to be honest but this is a welcoming surprise to tide us over before ES6
Unreal Engine isn't efficient for open world games, so I question the reliability of this story.
Hopefully modders can fix the aged combart in this game if this is true. Enemies leveling up with you broke and defeated the whole purpose of leveling up.
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
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
Bloodborne.
Super Mario RPG....
For WRPG, I say Witcher 3 Wild Hunt, easily.
For Strategy/Tactical RPG:
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together
Final Fantasy Tactics
For Action RPG/Hack N Slash:
Diablo 2
But for JRPG, that's much harder...
Final Fantasy 6-10
Brave Fencer Musashi
Grandia 2
Skies of Arcadia
Legend of Dragoon
Breath of Fire 3, 4
Dragon Quest 8
Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
Ni no Kuni
JRPGs are definitely my favorite, much harder to choose
There is a lot of awesome RPGs
but I don't think there is something called "the best RPG of all time"
or maybe there is but it's subjective
Planescape torment
