TL;DR Everybody likes different games. What a surprise!
That sounds pretty gay. If I wanted to LARP like that, I'd hire a prostitute to dress like nazi while I roleplay a humble merchant. It'd probably have a much better time that pbta.That sounds incredibly gay. Bruh FriendlyMerchant can you imagine if our dnd sessions was some gay LARRP like pbta?!
Pulse grenade = calm robot
Do you even know what a fucking "calm" spell is? Killing something is not calming it lmao.
Fucking New Vegas tards, everytime.
I have a history of trashtalking one game and defending the other, switching positions over time.
Problem with blobbers is that they are inherently jank, especially the realtime ones. I liked doing the puzzles in Grimrock but the combat-dance was retarded.Blobbers subgenre as a whole is overrated af. There is a reason why isometric RPGs are making a comeback, but blobbers are still dead. People played them as kids, and 10yo's will enjoy any garbage you'll serve them, so now they defend them because of nostalgia, but even those "fans" don't actually want to play this shit again.
If some western developer put a little more effort into the visual side of things when doing their new blobbers, more than the nothing at all Might and Magic X and The Bard's Tale 4 do, they'd probably do better than new western RPGs with a isometric view...that is if by isometric RPGs you're talking RPGs with some kind of turn based tactical system or ones with real-time with pause and not simply the view.
If a new "blobber" had first-person exploring with 3rd-person tactical turn-based combat I'd like that.
Üntermensch bitte.Gothic is a piece of shit and shouldn't be on the list at all.
Nu-trash like Fallout 4 and the likes aside, when it comes to classics I'd say Wizardry. I dunno, I grew up on M&M and have always found it to be far more charming in every aspect overall. Played Wizardry much later in life though so maybe I've simply grown out of that specific category.
Fallout 4 is underrated (besides the weak main quest and start of the game)Nu-trash like Fallout 4 and the likes aside, when it comes to classics I'd say Wizardry.

Fallout 4? Overrared? On the Codex?
Uhh... Point in case?Fallout 4 is underrated (besides the weak main quest and start of the game)
Isn't the general codex consensus that Fallout 4 sucks? I'm one of the only ones who like it probably.Fallout 4? Overrared? On the Codex?Uhh... Point in case?Fallout 4 is underrated (besides the weak main quest and start of the game)
At least it's an average shooter, something New Vegas cannot even pretend.Fallout 4 isn't even a CRPG and doesn't merit a mention in this discussion.
Similarly, Diablo 2 gets too much cred while Diablo 1 gets too little.

Not on the Codex.
Also Viva New Vegas is not a guide one should follow or base their own guide upon
Diablo only barely qualifies in the ARPG subgenre? As in the subgenre it spawned? LMAOSimilarly, Diablo 2 gets too much cred while Diablo 1 gets too little.
Not on the Codex.
They both get too much credit and they barely qualify as RPG, in fact, they only barely qualify in the ARPG subgenre.

Diablo series was excluded from the Codex Best RPGs of 2019 list, meanwhile action games like Deus Ex and Dark Souls were included.
Objectively speaking, Diablo is a lot like a traditional RPG, aside from the (imho unpleasant) real time combat. It has a lot in common with old roguelikes.
Yet the Codex ignores the Hack and Slash genre and seems to consider it "not RPG".
On the other hand, the Codex will count any console action game as an RPG if it has certain characteristics like story and atmosphere.
I blame storyfags.
