    What determines the immersion of a RPG?

    I can't just write a definition, however, IMO there are a couple of things which increases the immersion. Mechanics and lore being in line and making sense in the context First person perspective Music fitting the ambiance. More realistic or gothic artstyle. High lethality(except in few...

    We need more RPGs like Baba Is You

    The title is a clickbait, but I think there is something in Baba Is You [BIY] that game designers could use to make RPGs more interesting than they usually are. Here is a very short video on BIY (yes, I consider 15 minutes video to be a short one): Why do I think there is something that can...

    Imprisoned Hyperion - first-person RPG inspired by Arx Fatalis

    Also the kick from Dark Messiah. Developer made another (seemingly more simpler) first-person action RPG and a first-person puzzle game, seemingly taking evolutionary steps toward making this kind of first-person RPG. The video doesn't show much and it seem they have a long way to go, but I...

However, this floating...

  10. Incline Actively participate in the creation of an RPG? How willing would you be?

    I've started work on a small(ish) rpg, as a side-passion project. I'm fleshing out the docs for now, stats and so forth. Probably soon will start working on a prototype in Godot. Not going to spoil the surprise (cause It's the second day I've worked on it so I have little idea) but ... it's...

    Decline RPGs that you regret finishing

    Mine has to be Dragon Age 2. I really enjoyed Origins, so much so that I managed 6 full playthroughs, and it's story left me wanting more. DA:2 arrived and it was a torturous, painful slog from start to finish, but I kept pushing through it with the hope that some of that "9/10" quality may...

    Question about stat checks in dialogues

    Hey guys. So i have a simple question - what type of skill checks do you prefer in an RPG? More relevant to dialogues. Classic dice rolling like DnD and Disco Elysium or a more certain outcome approach like in Cyberpunk or New Vegas where you have a numeric skill or stat barrier and if you pass...

    Lethality in RPG's, which one do you prefer?

    Basically, Time to Kill/Time to die on average. On Tabletop games, GURPS has the highest lethality IMO. A .338 lapua magnum rifle has enough damage to kill the average player a couple of times and has a range consistent to IRL ie - extremely far alway. D&D 4e is probably the lowest lethality...

    What RPG(s) do you really like but are too ashamed to admit on the Codex?

    I for one really like this obscure gem which came back in 1996 I believe.

  20. Recommend me a fantasy RPG like this please?

    I'm looking for an RPG that's open world, or partially open-world like the old blobber games, where you go on adventures and have fun quests to complete, and quality writing like in old RPGs (Infinity Engine, Krondor, Might and Magic etc.), at least dialogue-wise - I don't mind what the plot is...

    No game brought more decline than WoW. Change my mind!!

    Some people blame consoles, and is undeniable that consoles brought decline to SP RPG's, however, WoW brought decline to RPG'S IN GENERAL. Tabletop, SP and MP. Thanks to wow, people see RPG's as gear farming, cooldown managing games. What WoW brought to the RPG market? Normalization of...

    Solo dev interested in your your opinion about a turn-based isometric RPG inspired by Fallout 1/2

    Hi guys, Long story short: I'm a solo dev who's developed a heavily Fallout-inspired branching narrative isometric CRPG with turn-based combat over 15 years ago. A lot of the choices back then were based on my personal preferences (never liked fantasy and cannot stand real-time combat) and...
