    Any single-player RPG where I can build my char around DoT (damage over time) spells/skills?

    I'm just curious, because I played lots and lots of RPGs but can only remember DoT builds being viable in MMOs, notably WoW: Affliction Warlock and EverQuest Necromancer. I can only remember DoT being "viable" in a single player game, in Diablo 2's "poisonmancer," in Two Worlds 1...

    Worldbuilding>Characters>Plot

    Or, A Simple Primer to RPG Writing. People often bring up romances and cinematic voiced dialogue as elements of decline, but I think the biggest one in RPGs is a focus on characters or plot over worldbuilding.
