Best advertizement for Beamdog is on the codex. Most folks don'T even know they exist.
Hopefully more indie developers decide to concentrate on the mobile platform. Games like PUBG, Fortnite, etc are vastly more tactical than your typical pc fag RPG

IE games weren't storyfag games though... Well, only Planescape Torment was, but that game was shit and didn't sell anyway. Bioware storyfaggotry really began with KOTOR.

Pillars of Eternity : Deadfire works like a filter.
It only retains the retards.
The turn-based mode for Deadfire was accidentally released to PC. It's actually only for the mobile version.

Baldur's Gate 2 sucks and should not be considered a top 10 CRPG. I probably already posted this which also triggers you. Double whammy.

The combat system of Gothic II/III, Risen, and Elex is garbage and completely ruins some otherwise good games with good faction systems. Oblivions combat system has more realism and depth than these games, and is a lot more intuitve. You run up to an enemy and start whacking. Elex? Well, let's run from every enemy and that's a feature! People bitch about the Gamebryo classics, but at least some games have the wisdom to make the challenge scale.
If I wanted to play a game with twitch mechanics and a crappy combat system, I'd play Ultima 8. Also, the endings of the above games never feel like anything was accomplished. Here is how you should finish a game
Gothic/Elex/Risen? You just kind of finish the game and then wait for a sequel. May as well be playing Grand Theft Auto. Those Germans may make a fine car, but they should leave the worldbuilding, lore, and story to the professionals.

In an inspired twist, Fallout 3 takes you through the circle of life over the course of the game. It felt awesome to know that you were born in the game, you took your first steps, you spent time with your dad, you became a real person, you grow and learn, and in the end you have an awesome shootout with your nemesis - a guy who killed your dad I think - then YOU sacrifice everything to enter a code in a chamber to finish an important experiment. I know I'm not the only person who stood up and clapped at the end but just couldn't wait to start the game over and play the game differently as a different type of player!

There will never be another AAA game as good as Witcher 3.

Witcher 3 sucks anyway, so no one cares.

No. Gunship 2000. You get to choose who to promote, who to give medals to, how many people in your party, what helicopters they flew, weapons they used, etc.
And in something sure to trigger the elitist fucks we have here: "The game received 5 out of 5 stars in Dragon.[17]"
That's right. DnD Dragon Mag gave it a 5/5.
Dragon gave all games 5/5.

It sounds as if you're looking for men in your game, what with sos and x32, you might prefer Shape Atlus For Men.

Most games with RPG mechanics (whatever they are) would be improved if you took out those mechanics.

I like how the Orc has such a huge bulge that it is distorting the texture a little
