I played it for a few minutes and thought the writing, character system, and combat were all banal.
Plus I can't stand step-based-first-person exploration anymore.

You should start a thread in Site Feedback. Worked well for that guy who desperately wanted his custom avatar.

It will be interesting to see which RPG series will rank best as a whole. Obviously, Fallout will be first, but then we have Wizardry, Might & Magic, Ultima, Goldbox, Baldur's Gate, IWD, and so on.

Fallout Original is the 'perfect' cRPG.
Not Princess Maker 2? I should disregard as trolling...

Wizadry 3rd, Ultima 4th and Might & Magic in the Top 10. That definitely does make a difference. Especially Might & Magic will have the votes split among too many games in the main list: 3, 4. 6 and 7. The same for Goldbox.
That's another strike against this poll then.

Surprised to see KOTOR 2 not making the list. That was a pretty Avellonian game if there ever was one. It basically Deconstructed Star Wars. It takes a sick mind like MCA's to do that
The list is franchises; Kotor 2 would be included under the Kotor umbrella and probably has the vast majority of the votes. Not many here would say Kotor was better than Kotor II.
Fenris 2.0
Augur
It's not about the horrible mediocre OC, it's about the Party-System of SOZ, the Dungeons of Mods like Legacy of White Plume Mountain or Wulverheim, the grimdark Story of Tales from the Lake of Sorrows or the Question if I should use a Rogue/Barbarian/Fighter or a Paladin/NWN9, a Wizard/RWoT or a Sorcerer/ASoCK. The Game is more then the sum of it's Parts, and certainly more then the bland OC.

People really come down harder on the OC than it deserves. The Acts got steadily better.

... I'm pretty sure Khelgar lives in all scenarios.
Eh, do you like that? Khelgar?
Look, for people who already had enough of the horrible early chapters, the orc caves, the bugbears, or what-have-yous, and suffering through the equivalent of unnecessary re-enactment of Aeris' death in PC RPG what is there left for them to cheer aside from a shitty ending and unsatisfactory finale?

Why are fags giving Baldur's Gate such high scores?
