I'm looking for as generic an rpg as possible.

You know, with elves using bows, dwarves hammers, paladins, rogues ,raners and all that shit.
Good kingdom (set in an unidentified psuedo-medieval fantasy) invaded by evil, yadda yadda.

Buy potions, slay monsters that are always chaotic evil. Get magic shit.
No complicated story. No moral grays and tragic villains.


Think majesty, but you're playing the heores.

Try Ishar (the first one). It's set in the least memorable fantasy world ever and has a plot about as developed as the one in Super Mario Bros.

Oblivion, Kingdoms of Amalur, NWN OC, there’s another one like Kingdoms with the horrible wow-aesthetics, big shoulder pads and over saturated color palette, rtwp combat and a camera that can’t make up its mind if it’s TPP or isometric. I think that, to top it all off, it used skill trees and level locked gear.

Game was pure shit.

Yeah, we have sooooo many original fantasy settings that it's reeeeeeally hard to find a generic one.

C'mon nigga you kidding me? Generic is the name of the game.

"Oh no they made elves be spear specialists instead of longsword, why oh why must I be denied my generic copy-pasted setting goodness?"
