The most complex RPG to date?

[Barbader]

the most complex rpg, options and strategy wise is...
(who have the guts to mention a title of the last five years?)

 

[Section8]

Arcanum?

 

[Chefe]

American Hare

 

[Hümmelgümpf]

Darklands.

 

[Fat Dragon]

Fuck, I don't know. For me, probably Wizard's Crown in terms of combat. It took me a while to get the hang of the combat system.

 

[Black_Willow]

Oblivion?

 

[Barbader]

mine is Jagged Alliance 2. Rpg for me.

¿Oblivion? is that good... has options and strategy complexity, boring but is there.

 

[deuxhero]

Nethack (or at least some other roguelike) hands down.

 

[JarlFrank]

Temple of Elemental Evil, in the combat department.

EDIT:
Then again, I'd have to say Dwarf Fortress is even more complex. And yes, it's RPG [adventure mode].

 

[barker_s]

What Jarl said. I've never seen more complex game than DF. It also has great combat system - bleeding, vomiting, chopping-off limbs... Too bad I don't have time for it atm.

 

[NiM82]

Out of the ones I've tried: Arcanum - as far as character stats/development goes. For combat & strategy it's got to be ToEE.

 

[Caveman]

Dwarf Fortress

the upcomig version (with army module, new world generator) will be best rpg game ever:

Another island map with good/evil turned off and high rainfall/savagery. The only civilized creatures left alive after 1000 years were three demons and a nine hundred year old elf born in a goblin tower. In order to stay alive, one of the demons had killed 3 hydras, 4 titans and various cyclopes and minotaurs. The elf was a guard and had killed a cyclops and two minotaurs. He had a wife, 6 daughters and 2 sons, but they were all killed by marauding beasts early on. The high savagery didn't impact play other than killing a few hunters -- the beast problem was caused by all of the caves crammed on the islands (it's possible to compensate for this by changing the cave parameters, but I didn't do that). Also, you can see a rain shadow very clearly on the right side of the upper island

Dungeon Siege. It's just too much to manage.

 

[Korgan]

JA2 with the 1.13 mod has tons of shit to play around with. That mod also adds decent AI, great realism and still remains kinda balanced - sinpers one-shot everything from half a map away, but both you and the AI can send ninjas to flank them. I love it.
Yeah, and DF obviously. I must confess I haven't played it for half a year though, and I gonna wait till armies during regular gameplay are in. The battles are going to be OMFG UBER MEGA EPIC, and this is an understatement.

And here's another: RoA2, overall, although I agree with TOEE for combat.
