Ok, I have a request to recommend me something to play, but I find it hard to say what I mean.
I'm looking for a cRPG (or semi-cRPG, or even an action-adventure game) with 3D graphics (not an isometric view) where I can travel around nice outdoor locations. By saying "nice" I do not mean that the graphics should be advanced - on the contrary, I mean older titles. I use a fairly old laptop, and the "old" (or stylized to look old) games have a special charm for me. My point is that art style should be atmospheric, stimulating the imagination and the desire to travel. Games I know that meet these criteria are, for example: Might and Magic 3-5 and 10, Gothic 1-3, Two Worlds 1, The Quest, Fate: Gates of Dawn (the game has its good sides, but in a long run is unplayable), Wizards and Warriors (to a lesser extent), the TES series (in theory, because I don't like any of those titles, except maybe Morrowind), Dark Souls, Grimoir, also some parts of Ravenloft/Menzoberranzan games. So anything from open-world blobbers to hiking simulators.
This (https://rpgcodex.net/forums/threads/the-darkness-below-a-retro-crpg-in-the-making.118437/) has a chance to be a great game of this type in the future.
The game doesn't have to be brilliant, it's just a jump from my "serious" list of titles. If only it wasn't completely shit. I am asking for not very obvious titles, I’m open to any obscure game. They may not even be a role-playing games, as long as they are set in a fantasy world and allow for (more or less) free traversal of landscapes.
For now, I am considering such titles as: Fable- The Lost Chapter (is it better to test the original or Anniversary edition?), Jade Empire, Kingdoms of Amalur. I'm also interested in Dragon's Dogma, but that's too much for my machine.
BTW: Are there any action or platform games with open world? Something like Rayman 2 or Severance: Blade of Darkness, but with a more open structure and some non-arcade elements? I only think of Dark Souls.
