The last RPGs you're going to play

[Bloodeyes]

Our world is ending and most of us are going to die this decade. A decade is optimistic, to be frank. There's not a shitload any of us can do about that.

That leaves us only so much gaming time, and we'll need to spend it as well as we can. So pick the next 5 cRPGs you're going to play now. Drop any shit you're only sort of interested in. Pick things that you know you want to play, but for whatever reason haven't yet or pick things you absolutely must have one more go at in this lifetime.

My next 5:

Planescape Torment. I actually never finished it. Started it around 15 years ago and I remember liking it. But life gets in the way of things. Never got back to it.

Divinity: Original Sin II.

Underrail

Arcanum, but I'll drop it if I don't like it. I remember having a hard time getting into it.

I've owned Kenshi for ages and not played it. Gotta play that one.

If I get through all that and I'm still sucking air, still free and in possession of a working computer and a safe place to use it, NWN Enhanced edition has enough modules to keep me going for the rest of my life. That game has never really grabbed me though so we'll see.

 

[KateMicucci]

I'm not going to waste the rest of my life playing RPGs.

I'm going to be here, shitposting about RPGs.

Wizardry 7 x5.

Funnily enough, D:OS II was pretty much the only RPG I played last year (and for the first time). And I really liked it, including the armor system.

Tried getting into Arcanum again last year too and again I dropped it after a few hours.

Underrail is one of the Top 3 RPG's of the last decade. It has a pretty boring beginning, but then it becomes great. And the very end is again subpar.

My personal choice for last RPG would probably be Wizardry 7 and Grimoire, but I am planning to survive this shitshow.

Playing RPGs is certainly not the worst way to spend the last few months of your life... but pretty high up in the list.

Why stop playing then and not now though?

It would be a shame to blow my life's savings on drugs and hookers only to discover I somehow need to survive for another 3 decades.

 

[Werdnicus]

The last RPG I'm going to play is probably NWN2 because an eternity in hell wont be so bad in comparison.

MOTB was good though

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

I'm gonna play..

MOSSMAN BIGFOOT ADVENTURE LAND!! LARP!

 

[Theodora]

Good idea with Kenshi, learn some skills to survive in the post-apocalypse!

I am not sure getting constantly beaten, losing your legs and ending up a slave is going to help you in the post-apocalypse. Unless mental preparation counts.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

That BG3 barbarian is setting up to be a man-whore. Might want to avoid that game and values it teaches.

 

[Theodora]

Unless mental preparation counts.

Exactly, mental fortitude is a powerful trait!

hell of a way to introduce your thread

 

[DY050503]

The game with a lot of '?' mark on the map.

I'm going to live forever.

A decade? If you're not in your 60s or up, man, that's pessimistic unless there are some health issues going on (which you are of course not obliged to discuss). The Ukraine thing is worrying but I doubt either Putin or Biden is dumb enough to start WW3.

But I think it's not a bad end-of-life hobby. Doesn't require much hand-eye and certainly little muscle strength, though loss of executive function in the later stages of dementia could be a problem. I'm probably going to run Pool of Radiance to Pools of Darkness with the same party one last time.

Helps not to be a drama queen

 

[Nano]

GTA, except in real life. Let's see how many police helicopters I can blow up before going down.

 

[wishbonetail]

Damn, that's my line. This game is Art, it should not be approached lightly. Waiting for the right mood for about 20 years.

Can't die without tasting the incline one more time.
