    Indie Quasimorph - dark turn-based extraction RPG - now available on Early Access

    Disclaimer: the game is a procedurally generated turn-based roguelike (with Escape From Tarkov and Stoneshard elements) with RPG elements. It identifies itself as an RPG ("the extraction turn-based RPG"), so I am putting it in this section. What you have above is the game. It isn't out yet...

    Indie Betrayal At Club Low - indie CYOA RPG on acid

    Found this game out this week and really recommend any RPG fan to give it a try: Cosmo D is an indie dev who did a few walking sims / adventure games, for some reason his latest game is a surreal kind of CYOA / Disco Elysium-esque RPG. Basically, you must infiltrate a dance club dressed as a...

    What RPG's had the best companions? Not only in terms of stats and abilities, but also story, voice acting(if applicable) and character development?

    Best stories in an RPG

    Greetings. Now, I know what you might be thinking: "Stories in an RPG? Combat is king! This nigga is surely mad!" Perhaps that might be so, but let's talk a bit about what are possibly the best stories in any RPG. Planescape Torment, all memes and storyfaggotry aside, is arguably one of the...

    Retarded mechanics/features that never works out

    Recently I've been thinking about all the bad designs and features that I've encountered in my short journey with RPGs and games in general that somehow are repeated over and over again and they are always hot mess and pretty much never work out. I would like to dedicate this thread to gather as...

    Worst examples of nonsensical railroading.

    Remember Khrorinis in Gothic 2? There are 7 ways to get into the city. During the trial of fire, there are also N ways to do the quests in G2, but some games insist in doing the opposite and forcing the player into a corridor. Some examples. NWN2 OC During the OC(original campaign), you must...

    Wraith: The Oblivion

    Did anyone of you ever play Wraith: The Oblivion? If so,what were your experiences? Is it worth it? The setting seems pretty great,very dark and hopeless in tone.

    Fallout 2 was always incline

    No, Fallout 1 isnt better than 2 Fallout 1's better pacing and sense of urgency werent enough to justify it being better than its sequel and you should accept it. Not only density of content but quality itself is consistently higher on the sequel and i will discuss some of those points here...

  19. Incline Best Turn Based RPG With 5-8+ Units/Characters That Has A Strong Affliction/DoT Build Option

    So I've played GW1 which while not TBS has lots of characters + a half decent set of stacking/synergizing Afflictions and DoTs. I'd like something 5-10x more expansive. Ideally singple player, and obvious TBRPG not ARPG. I've gotten a recommendation for Etrian Odyssey but that seems to be...

    Why so few games with permadeath/ironman/hardcore modes?

    I was re playing M&M VI/VII/VIII and was planning to complete the trilogy till 10 January, where I will have to go back to work. You can see M&M VI screenshots and M&M VII screenshots in the screenshot thread. But M&M 8 - Day of the destroyer is my least favorite M&M game. So I changed my mind...

  24. RPGs with the Best Tumor

    I love how good tumor grounds an RPG, and I'd say that it's this factor which attaches me to a game more than anything. In fact some pretty ropey or average games can be very enjoyable if they contain good tumor. So which games fall into that category for you? Off the top of my head, those...

    So how often do you Homebrew?

    How frequent is your homebrew to non-homebrew ratio's when you do RPG games? I find myself always messing with things every time I do a game, doing alternate settings, or changing Metaplot and history often heavily ect. My games change things a lot from the corebooks often. This is more...
