    Yeah i'm quite interested in this one. Wishlisted.

    Yeah it's honestly really tame... compared to even TW3.

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    I would honestly rank every "high-profile" and recent (PoE 1 and later), non-Larian CRPG above BG3. There's definitely things BG3 does better than each of those titles, but as a whole package, it's just mediocre to me.

    KickStarter Monomyth - A first person action RPG/dungeon crawler - now in Open Backer Beta

    I'm a big fan of what you're doing but i think it's time to stop with these teases and demos and just announce the release date and then actually release the game. I know some or even many people will disagree with me, but here is my rationale: I want to discover the game on my own, and for me...

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Man this game is so fucking mid. I would give it a 7/10 tops and i feel even that's generous. Sure it's got really good character models and art design, but it's basically just D:OS3 in a different-not-different skin. The UI is fucking awful and unresponsive. The RPG character builds are...

    Game News Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 Extended Gameplay Reveal

    This looks so fucking awful. It just gets worse and worse the further they move along with the game's development.

    What is the grimdark-est grimdark rpg?

    This tbh. It's extremely dark. People say Tyranny is evil, but I honestly believe Aeora as portrayed in PoE 1 to be the darkest setting I have ever seen in an RPG (not agreeing on what an RPG *is* notwithstanding). Fuck knows what happened to the tone in PoE 2 and now Avowed though.

    Pathfinder What Would You Think If Owlcat Switch to Turn-Based Only for All Future Pathfinder Games?

    I would personally like to see them keep both TB and RtwP. I have nothing against RTwP when implemented well. I mostly play that way in Pathfinder.

    Archmage Rises - the play-how-you-want mage simulator - now available on Early Access

    i am interested in this game, even picked it up a while ago, but think it needs a long time in the oven. ping when necromancy or vampirism is a thing.

    Why do RPGs, even indie ones, not make use of more immersive sim elements?

    Admittedly, i haven't played Skyrim without mods since 2011, and my go-to magic mod has unlock spells and i assumed they were part of the base game.

    TES games started as life-sims and are more immersive simmy these days

    KickStarter King Arthur: Knight's Tale + Legion IX standalone expansion - dark fantasy turn-based tactical RPG from NeocoreGames

    Yeah I dunno about this one. I really like the tone and art direction of this game and the writing and story seems solid, but even after just 3 hours the gameplay is already getting boring. I'm playing on hard and i think it's not difficult at all.

    Archmage Rises - the play-how-you-want mage simulator - now available on Early Access

    "New x system" I really wish they stopped advertising each iteration of their alpha systems as the next big thing.

    Oblivion is an underrated gem

    Wow it reminds me of this really obscure title called Morrowind. Really wish more people on this website would give a chance.

    The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition - Obsidian's first-person sci-fi RPG set in a corporate space colony

    The Outer Worlds is the little game who couldn't. "We don't know how to make minigames fun, so there is no interactive lockpicking or hacking." "We don't know how to write player romance, so there is no player romance." "We don't know how to do stealth, so you just turn invisible." "We don't...
