What are the best RPGs you've ever played?

[Heath]

What are the best RPGs you've ever played? You can make a list of three games, four, five. etc. You can list up any game you've had a good experience with, as long as it is an RPG.

I have played loads of RPGs, and im currently searching for some new RPGs to play. So if you would help me, I would really appriciate it.

My list of my favourite RPGs would be this:
1. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
This is the best rpg I've ever played. No doubt. It has an amazing atmosphere and a storyline which is just... magic. I got sunk into the game and I have probably played it for many hours. (I played this game without adding it to my steam account, I have the cd version)

2. Dragon Age 1
I normally dont like the concept of having a party of heros instead of just one hero. One hero is my type of game play mostly. But this game kind of just dragged me into it. It has fantastic gameplay and the combat is "bloody" fun. Yes, its a lot of blood. My favourit part about this game is probably the characters. I fell in love with Morrigan, almost, for real. And some of the other characters I just.. I felt like I really knew them. I felt like we had a real relationship. It is kind of hard to explain, but im sure anyone that has played Dragon Age can relate. Haha

3. The Witcher: Enhanced Edition
A dark and magic game. The combat isn't the very best, but its classy, so, I like it. But this game really nails the story. One of the best storylines I've ever played. Sunk into it, and just played it for days. I love it.

4. The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
Old and classic. I would play this game any day over Skyrim or Oblivion. The graphics isn't the best. Has been ages since I played it though.

5. Gothic 3
Open rpg. I never got to much hold of the storyline, lol. I just really enjoyed running around and either helping towns or attacking them. It was great fun. Of course, there was a lot more of the game that I enjoyed, it just takes so long to write it all down.


TL;DR: I want new rpgs. What should I try?

Dungeons and Dragons. The pan and paper version with all it's die rolling glory.

No idea which new you should play, pretty much the type of RPGs that I like is in extinction.

[IronVoid]

Battle Toads

[Vegetable Artist]

I have to say Dragon Nest...

[Traya Tyto]

KOTOR2: The Sith Lords (Incoming hate.)

[Mivo]

On the PC, I would say Planescape: Torment, with nothing else coming even remotely close. But that's for story and atmosphere.

Other noteworthy candidates are Neverwinter Nights (first one, with the expansions), Morrowind, Gothic 1, Baldur's Gate and Borderlands 2. :p (I really don't know if BL2 qualifies, but it has some of the best characters and the most inappropriate humor.

There are so many RPGs that I enjoyed, though, all for their own reasons. Stuff like Ultima Underworld, Ultima 8: Pagan, the Wizardry series, Bard's Tale, Diablo 2, Divine Divinity, the old DSA games like Sternenschweif (Drakensang would be a more modern version of it, though different story), Icewind Dale, and I'm sure the Witcher 1 and 2 are great based on the books I read. On handhelds, I like the early Final Fantasies, four through six especially (just bought FF5 for iOS), DragonQuest, some of the Tales games, the PSP Wild Arms was superb, and so on.

But yes, the RPG that rules them all is Planescape: Torment. :)

[second coming of jesus]

fallout 3 for sure!

[banzaigtv]

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Final Fantasy X
Final Fantasy VI
Gauntlet Dark Legacy

[76561198018099063]

Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger (and also Legend of Zelda a Link to the past, even it is more a adventure game). I am very much into old 2d games like SNES.

[intok]

Lunar 1 and 2
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy Legend series for the original gameboy
Morrowind will be worth a replay once the OpenMW mod project finishes
Fallout 1/2
