@maboilaurence8227 3 месяца назад

Kudos to Wasteland 2 for being so good at introducing the lore and plot of Wasteland 1 to new players. You can ask survivors of the first game (both allies and enemies) what happened in the first game and their thoughts about it, getting multiple points of view. Few RPGs nailed that aspect without bloating the game with unnecessary walls of text, WL2 did it so well with few lines of dialogues. Most RPGs will have this info break the pace of the story, but Wasteland 2 has some quests that are directly related to conflicts that were caused by the actions of the first game's protagonists, so you both get a general idea of what happened AND new content that stands on its own.

Love the list, Mortym. Happy to have seen many of these come out over the years. While I agree that WoTR is probably my favorite, there's simply so many games and worlds that deserve all the praise in the world for what they do. I'm very excited to see the list grow as we go forward!

@zan1639 3 месяца назад

And here I thought I have played most of the crpgs. More than half of those i haven't played. Wish I had a bit more time. I love that you gave Tyranny a high ranking above some of the heavy weights in the genre. Probably my favorite crpg.

@hanssen71 3 месяца назад

Personally many of these I don’t consider crpgs. Gothic, elex, risen, greedfall are closer to Skyrim and Witcher than to bg3 and pathfinder imo. Kotor and dragon age are kinda in between while inquisition leaves most of the crpg elements of origin behind. For the same reason I wouldn’t put fallout 3/NV on this list.

@flow221 3 месяца назад

@n71 Everyone has a different idea of what "CRPG" means, which is why I don't even bother using the term anymore. Back in the day it just meant any RPG on a computer. Now it means, what... a computer based isometric RPG? A computer RPG that uses some vague definition of a "classic" rule set? A computer RPG that is party based? Who knows.

I respect and value your reviews a ton and you keep talking about these Pathfinder games that I've actually cracked the seal on Kingmaker and am really enjoying it so far! I don't want to spoil myself by playing Wrath of the Righteous first, so after my KM run I do plan on jumping into WotR. You speak highly of Rogue Trader as well, so maybe a big Owlcat push is in my future.

Update: Stag Lord down. :) I'm curious next to see if the Kingdom Management gripes warranted or not. I think that's coming soon.

@Childofbhaal 3 месяца назад

I’m playing through Kingmaker right now and I’m so overwhelmed lol I just got to level 6 and I already want to restart because my characters are a janky mess. I’m a min max type player so it’s triggering me. The character customization is so deep and important that I want to just start over and make my party the right way without investing so much to make new guys or respec

@elwinkline6387 3 месяца назад

@Childofbhaal I feel you 100%. I no lie restarted this game more than any other CRPG. First attempt - I started with the default human Warrior with a shield and flail/Mace (forget his name). 2nd - Tried to custom a Druid. Hard fail trying to min-max and most likely in the boat you are in now. 3rd - Tried to min-max a Ranger. Another hard fail. 4th - Just went back to an Origin/Default character, this time Melaku (Paladin dude) and he has been a perfect fit. Paladin's are literally God tier and it just makes the game fun to play and less stressful. The game is hard enough without self-inflicted pain your first play through. For reference, just hit level 5 and doing my thing managing my Kingdom. Which by the way! Is not as bad as people make it out to be. So far I am actually enjoying it. The game is called KINGMAKER after all folks. Not Dungeon Crawler :).

It's incredible you find a RU-vidr who has very similar taste to you. I played so many games thanks to you, and they were awesome. Apart from Pathfinder.

I've soldered thought the 2nd half and still had some fun there and here. I still can wonder how people reacted to VtM Bloodlines announcement when they said it will be in modern times.... when in Redemption modern times were the weakest. That on top of bugs and release around HL2 surely helped dig the game deeper into obscurity.

@CaptainShiny5000 3 месяца назад

It's nice to see Tyranny getting some love - that is one of my favorite modern cRPGs. This together with Divinity Original Sin 1 (not 2, at least not yet), Rogue Trader and Baldur's Gate 3. Although, Rogue Trader deserves a special spot - I'm not good with complicated mechanics whatsoever and failed repeatedly at Pathfinder: Kingmaker, yet Rogue Trader clicked for me like nothing else. Also the 40k lore in this was such an immense treat, the writing was outstanding and the combat was absolutely fantastic in providing me with an appropriate 40k power trip. Baldur's Gate 3 is obviously superior in many things - however Rogue Trader clicked a little more with me and I finished it in almost one go while I'm still struggling a little bit with getting fully immersed into BG3.

Great overview as usual. I myself have played 34 of the games on the list (not all to completion and certainly not 100%). I bounced off of UnderRail early because of the unexpected difficulty, but I need to give it a shot again as that was a while ago (2016 or so). and I am a more persistent player these days. My earliest games in the genre were BG, Fallout, Divine Divinity and Plane Scape Torment. It has been a while but it feels like these game came out all at once and I loved them all and the genre ever since.

Great job Mortismal!

@phtefanphtefan3873 3 месяца назад

I think it's great how positive you approach the matter. There are so many good games. Among other things, I'm finally on my first run of Pathfinder:wotr and Bloodlines. Wotr had to wait until I finished a few other games so I could take a lot of time with it :D I would also like to see a sequel to Tyranny, but I have a hard time imagining where a direct sequel could start, as that would require a "definitive" ending to the first part. hmm BG1 has a very unique voice acting in the German edition, full of dialects and a presentation that stands between irony, seriousness and laughable. but it's so great and I can't imagine it any other way ❤️ It doesn't exactly fit the topic, but I would still like to recommend "The Inquisitor" to you. It only takes 8 to 9 hours maybe you can take a look, even if only for yourself. It has a great story, atmosphere,... I had to play through it 4 times :D

@MortismalGaming 3 месяца назад

No, Rogue Trader had plenty of bugs sure but so do plenty of other crpgs on this list (DOS2's last act was awful pre definitive edition, and even BG3's last act was pretty rough on launch). Bugs are not the same as the back half of the game being literally devoid of content because the studio shut down and did not develop it.

@zyfryth 3 месяца назад

The main reason Planescape Torment would be higher in my personal list, is because of the unique impact of companions. Every single one of them can teach you new things, that do not exist elsewhere. For example Ignus can teach you spells that are outside of the spellbook of the ruleset. That is to say both of you are the only entities in the game's universe that know these spells... I have never seen cRPG doing that besides Torment. Not only that, but he has a unique way of teaching them to you, by sacrificing att points... Not just the story, but also companion's story is just top notch. Also, once you realize that the nameless one was Ignus's teacher in his previous incarnations, before Ignus gets banished to the plane of fire, makes this come full-circle in a very unique way IMHO.

@Swizz12 3 месяца назад

Skyrim allows you to sculpt your own versions of spells, which is cool. BG3 also has some unique spells to be found late in the game.

@@Swizz12 None of those things are what I talk about. But just for the record, can you remind me which are the unique spells in bg3? I can't remember any

I’ve always felt that the game doesn’t feel like a game. I’d rather just read a far more complex book. Planescape: Torment seems like a favorite for people that should read more novels.

@Swizz12 Skyrim...Doesn't do that in fact it's the first Elder Scrolls game since Arena that doesn't have spellcrafting

Although I have many difference in taste and thoughts about your rating of games, there is nothing that will stop me from giving you a like.

Bg3 took 95 hours over 3 months to finish my first playthrough and it was exhausting Ive spent 95 hours in WotR these past two week and I cannot get enough (just liberated Drezen)

Dragon Age Origins, when it released, was incredible. It may not have aged as gracefully but in and for its time, it was amazing. Thats where the nostalgic love for it lies.

@elkston 2 месяца назад

Indeed. Origins should be rated much hlgher. It is a seminal work and along with badlurs gate 2, it is biowares best work.

The mod scene has reinvigorated a lot of these older games and that is especially true for DAO.

Cool list, I would have ranked Greedfall pretty high on my own list as I loved that game and pretty much all of Spiders games. Although truth be told I haven't played very many CRPG's these days.

im really curious what you think of the old elder scrolls games! love your stuff bruv

@yabryzgalov 3 месяца назад

Great list! Thank you! A bit sad, that you didn't mentiontoned/reviewed a couple of my favorites RPGs: a) Divinity II from Larian. An action RPG, where you can turn into a dragon and fly/burn castles. A decent gameplay and good story. But the most prominent thing is humor. Without a doubt the most funny of Larian's games. b) Bound By Flame from Spiders. Good character arc, when you can gradually become a demon or restrain and save yourself. Decent game play and memorable characters. Really worth a review in my opinion.

@jimralston4789 Месяц назад

Are they party based? If not, that's probably why they didn't get mentioned.

Divine Divinity is so underrated I think, very fun game.

@mateyiac 3 месяца назад

Cool list Mortismal! Nostalgia for me has Fallouts up higher and AoD too! That said, I did notice a few strange absences from the list that I wonder if you have gone back to try? I would love to see your take on Deus Ex (1st one) and maybe Human Revolution as well. Not sure you would count them as crpgs but you do have VTM on there which isnt too far off from Deus Ex. Also would highly recommend Expeditions: Conquistador and to a lesser extent, Expeditions: Viking.

@jimralston4789 Месяц назад

The rankings were for CRPGs - party based tactical RPGS, both of those Deus Exs are better categorized as immersive sims with rpg elements.

I am really surprised how high you put Phiranna bytes games, especially Gothic and Elex. I have seen your reviews for these games, and I know you enjoyed them, but I didin't know you liked them that much. As a simple Eastern European, it does warm my heart :D
