Trigger the codex with a statement.

[Daemongar]

In fact, I honestly think Baldur's Gate is the worst of the IE games.

No way man. BG1 had some incredible innovation at the time and a really tight narrative that most games (whether they know it or not) owe a lot to. Also, Real Time with Pause (RTwP) will probably go down in history as the innovation the *saved* RPGs.

The people that don't like RTwP are probably the same folks who are going back and playing Fallout 2 and saying to themselves "Wow, this game is great, but it would be AMAZING if I could run around like in Diablo and shoot things." I'm not saying RTwP is best everywhere, but it sure as hell works everywhere its used: BG1, Ultima VII, Arcanum. You name it!

Doom Eternal is the best FPS in existence and low IQ morons are the only ones who dislike the game and should go back to playing CoD.

"Interesting"
I don't even know what you're talking about.

Now go and check if you can trigger "The Watchers" with that shit ...

Doom Eternal is at the forefront of CRPGs at this point in time. It makes Planescape Torment look like a game that is meant for the mentally challenged.

1996-2003 is the golden era of not only CRPGs, but PC games in general.

False, the best era was when Skyrim and Mass Effect were created.

The developers of Doom Eternal actually managed to provide more substance and history to the continuing protagonist than Larian have for a game claiming the BG3 title. At some point in the games' future iteration, it will develop RPG elements and actually (unironically) surpass the IE games, and become the dreaded self-fulfilling prophecy of an FPS dominating a RPG genre.

You would think that but the Beamdog apologism in that picture is much worse.

But this is unironically true.

I'd say 93 or so until 2004 or so. For me, Lands of Lore through Bloodlines. Though I think we all know our ages are what determines this.

Here is a triggering opinion to everyone in the rpgcodex. Beamdog is far less evil than THQ Barcelona, Blizzard and etc with remake/remaster

TB games is not always good.

There are as many shit TB games if not more than the good one.

The thing is, you can't stop retards from developing what they think is a TB cRPG.

Look at all these Japanese Wizardry clones, for instance ...

Seriously, fuck Kingmaker's rust monster encounters. If I had a nickel for every item Iost to those...

And is also a communist. Every time I run into an inn or house and ransack the place, all I can hear in my head is 'each according to his need'. Apparently in the Witcher's world all property is divided among the masses equally and without greed.

Yeah, they completely ruined my last playthrough. The game is so full of rust monsters it's literally unplayable. Yesterday I entered an unexplored area in the map and there were so many fucking rust monsters that the game crashed and my GPU exploded.

Morrowind is the Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 of its time.

Anachronox is the only good "JRPG" ever made, and it's still not that good.

Witcher is hot garbage and Sea Pee 2077 will be an immense disappointment.

Guild Wars 2 is so much better than Guild Wars 1.

On a post about BG, BG2 and IWD:

As someone who knew about D&D for a long time but only got to play in 4th edition (PC games included), I find the old games quite irritating game-play wise. I've tried playing them on multiple occasions and I always left in the first couple of hours.

Pillars of Eternity offers a similar but, in my opinion, more entertaining gameplay. Divinity 2: Original Sin, on the other hand, brings enjoyment on a whole new level. Larian Studios have created a masterpiece and I can't wait to get my hands on Baldur's Gate 3

Thanks, Facebook.
