Better thread:
Which game on this list the WORST?
In the top20, I think New Vegas and Morrowind are shit and dont even belong.

KotOR 2 more like KotOR Poo. Doesn't even belong in the top 101.

Witcher 3.
I kept playing because I thought it must get better, but it kept getting worse. :/
A game for retards.
And D:OS.
Complete garbage as well.

Am I getting deja vu?! I believe so.
I hate these fucking blocky shapes the "environment" is made of. A game doesn't have to look good, but the early 3D look is disgusting. It's like KOTOR 2 except there's no comparable storyfag aspect to it. Then there's the lighting and shadows, with things like light cutting sharply to pitch black when occluded by an object. Street lamps with highly cliche lens flares looking like Baby's First Photoshop Effect. Then, the gray and gray-blue ground and wall textures in Hell's Kitchen.
Rather than making pointless HD mods they should make anti-tastelessness level mods. DXIW sucks (also in art direction department), but at least it's ugly, not disgusting. The bluish aesthetic and "I swear we're not last gen" graphics are annoying, not jarring. But then DXIW has more of a storyfag game vibe.
Some levels look good, but they're the exception. Like UNATCO, and Honk Honk outdoors market.

There is no "later on" if I do not start to like the game within the first few hours (or less).
As to stuff I tried based on Codex recommendations and didn't like what I saw in the beginning, it's a long list (trigger warning!):
- Bloodlines
- Deus Ex
- Morrowind
- Anachronox
- Betrayal at Krondor
- Might & Magic 7 & 8
- Ultima 7
- Dark Sun
- Alpha Protocol
- Daggerfall
- Elminage Gothic
- Expeditions: Conquistador
- Pathfinder: Kingmaker
- Arcanum
I'm sure that a few of those I could start liking if I give them another chance. Most probable retries: Arcanum, PF:K, maybe Deus Ex.

DOS 6.2 - no graphics and just a bland text interface. You have to memorize all commands and there is virtually no progression.

dark souls is shameful cashgrab port and shouldnt even be mentioned
dragon dogma port got so terrible ui that everyone advertising it as crpg should be ashamed
twitcher1 is just a rythm clicking simulator, one should play crypt of necro dancer instead

New Vegas. The engine is too much. And the quest design... Not enough.
I've played maybe 10 hours. It might get better. For now it's meh.

It's one of the very few good games ever made.
Wait, what is this Enderal and how does it relate to the best GOAT Gothic?
