After reading Infinitron's recent RPG Codex Retrospective Review: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006), I could not help but wonder what were the best RPG's released since TES IV: Oblivion in 2006, which officially kickstarted what is known on the Codex as "The Decline."
Over the past 10 years, many aspects of the CRPG industry have changed, mainly the revival of oldschool gameplay mechanics, including choice & consequence and plain good storytelling. It's interesting to note to that, instead of revamping the play style of old games like BGII, PST, or FO2, everything that these games had to offer was copied in its exact form with the only real change being updated graphics.
What I would like to see is a "Best RPG List of the Past 10 Years." We already have the all-time greatest RPG's in the thread, RPG Codex Top 70 PC RPGs (Now with User Reviews!), but the inclusion of newer games (2006+) is sparse if not entirely absent.
Who's with me?
