Which CRPG has the most stupid name?

[Kem0sabe]

That crpg that was posted a time ago on the codex, called 'icy' probably has the most retarded name I have seen in a computer game.

 

[Jaesun]

They are changing the name IIRC....

 

[Hegel]

Pillars of eternity.

 

[Morality Games]

why isn't Witcher in the list

I have to admit, I almost didn't play the first Witcher game because I thought the name sounded stupid. I've acclimated to it now though.

For the most part though I don't notice bad names. Divine Divinity was the first one that made me go .

Until it was topped by:

 

[Neanderthal]

Sacred devs still making that "Unbended" thing, that's pretty odd.

 

[DaveO]

I seriously doubt "development" is still going on. The big elephant in the room is why you would trust the people that made the experience of Sacred/Sacred 2?

 

[Bigg Boss]

Wait a minute...The Legend of Legacy? Hahahaha! Silly Japanese.

 

[Nyast]

Wait until you see "Legend of Legendary Heroes"..

Thanks for the segway into non-rpg games, because take a fucking look at this shit:

Your point?

 

[deuxhero]

Divine Divinity gets my vote because the developers said it was retarded but the publisher insisted on it.

I don't think it's coincidence all the top results are from non-native English speakers.

While Bravely Default: Flying Fairy is a shit name, there is a surprise to the title.
If you ever intend to play it, don't read the following spoiler:

Spoiler

The title screen changes to Bravely Default: Laying Airy after you reach a certain point in the story.

 

[Fargus]

Why not Lords of Xulima? It's one of the most idiotic names i've ever heard.

 

[pippin]

They all look like they have narcolepsy or something like that.

Somebody has to make the same thread in GG, so people could mention gems of other genres.

Like Dudebro: My Shit is Fucked Up So I Got to Shoot/Slice You II: It's Straight-Up Dawg Time

It's kind of the point of that game.

 

[Daemongar]

I just had to vote for Dragons of the Rip. I can't hear the name without seeing this in my head...

 

[Jack Of Owls]

Is it too late to change my vote from Bravely Default: Flying Fairy to Black Geyser as the worst cRPG name? Black Geyser really does sound like interracial gay porn. Might as well be called The Paladin & The Cleric's 50 Load Weekend.

This is actually kind of foxy rather than dumb, but there is a faux-JRPG on Steam called "Vagrant Hearts" which is designed to garner revenue from people like me that always got the names of Vandal Hearts and Vagrant Story confused.

 

[JarlFrank]

ELEX, definitely. Hey, let's make a title by acronyming four buzzwords! BEST IDEA EVER!

 

[Bruma Hobo]

And then, there is:

 

[Eirikur]

In regards to ELEX, those adjectives (Eclectic, Lavish, Exhilerating, Xenial) aren't the reason for the name. Elex is the name of a special substance within the game, likely comparable to Tiberium in Dune. One of the team members say the word is a modification of the word Elixir, so it seems likely that Elex will be used in alchemy. The adjectives were probably chosen in hindsight.
