      still better than any pokemon game to this date

      amazing for the time, but there have been better rpgs since.

    Good list.

    >Disco Elysium
    I personally didnt enjoy it as much as others, but i cant deny its a well written game with good worldbuilding and interesting artistic merit.
    >Bloodborne
    I like this game but its barely a RPG, so to me it doesnt deserve a spot on the top RPG lists, it deserves a list of the top games list though.
    >Mother 3
    I need to replay this, cause i found it overrated, its good but i prefer Earthbound.
    >Baldur's Gate 3
    Agreed, great rpg with some of the best gameplay ever put to the genre.
    >Dark Souls
    Agreed, one of the best action rpgs of all time, if not the best.
    >Deus Ex
    Hell yeah, this game is a masterpiece, but is it truly RPG? or its an immersive sim? open question. top tier game either way.
    >Elden Ring
    Same as Dark Souls
    >EarthBound
    Yes, unique quirky Jrpg, good game.
    >Chrono Trigger
    Essential jrpg, great overall package.
    >Planescape
    Ofcourse! some of the best writing and dialogue in rpgs. great setting
    >Fallout New Vegas
    i mean is there even a question here, its the gold standard ffs.
    >Paper Mario
    Not a fan of this one, decent game, but it wouldn't be on my list.
    >Castlevania
    Not really a RPG but one of my favorites.
    >Persona 5
    I disagree, i found it to be mediocre.
    >Fallout 2
    Ofcourse
    >Final Fantasy 6
    Good game, best FF for sure, not in my top games but i understand people who pick it.
    >System Shock 2
    Immersive sim, not really RPG. but one of my favorites.
    >BG2
    Sure! one of the greatest
    >VTMB
    Ofcourse! very flawed but has incredible qualities.
    >Fear and Hunger 2
    Not sure about this one, i dont think it will be on my top lists, but its not a bad game.
    >FF7
    Same as FF6 but i think its the 4th best in the franchise and for that it wouldnt be on my list, highly iconic though.
    >Persona 4
    Not really
    >Pokemon
    This is the best version along with SoulsSilver but not sure i would put it in the top list
    >Dark Souls 3
    Nope, you already listed 3 souls games, this is bloated
    >LISA
    didnt play this

        Why? what games you want to be on the list?

        Good list. Not bloated. I would say that NWN as a whole is better than NWN2: MotB given the modding scene & smoothness of the updated engine. Something doesn't feel 100% right about having 3 Fallout titles but no BG1.

        Yes, i agree but i dont know why i went for NW2 instead then i remembered the main game was bad so i put the dlc.
        I considered taking out one of the Fallout games but didnt know what to put in its place, and if i put BG1 it will be the same but for Baldur's Gate.
        What Fallout game you want to take out? I suggest one of the first two because they are very similar.

        Try again.

        Instead of removing games you dont like we can add games you like. What do you suggest adding?

        Any list that doesn't have Shattered Lands is incomplete.

        Never played this one, i cant be dishonest and put it on my list without playing it first.

          Here's the post that convinced me to buy it for $5, and I fell in love with it:

          [...]

          Probably the game that most conveys the atmosphere of old school D&D.
          Explore goblin caves, collect treasures and sell them in town. Buy new weapons or gather monster parts to upgrade your equipment.
          Enter catacombs and face zombies and skeletons in dungeons that look like places actually created by an architect and not meaningless video game places.
          Constant commentary from your partymates reinforcing their curiosity and knowledge of the world's lore, just as if they were other real players with skills in Nature, Magic or History.
          One of the few RPG combats that applies the Grab mechanic and even climbs on creatures to reach vulnerable parts.
          Multiclass system that rewards experimentation and various enhancements acquired with leveling up that are very similar to D&D 3rd Edition Feats.
          Diagetic explanation for Fast Travel.
          Bestiary of creatures containing several classic monsters such as the aforementioned goblins, zombies, skeletons and dragons.
          Plus griffins, chimeras and more.
          Even the Beholder appears. And all in their interpretations closest to the original version.

          Overall, an excellent game.
          My only reservations are the excess of fetch quests and the lack of puzzle variety in the dungeons. Most consist of "look for the lever to open the door/gate"

    Whatever medical condition causes you to perpetually seethe about DS2 ten years after it released is not my concern.
    I recently replayed KOTOR1&2 and 2 was significantly worse than in my memories.
    Goldbox games are perpetually stuck in my backlog.
    There's no blobber on here because the only one I've played is Mazes of Fate.

        I theorize this is because the people praising the old games are ironically newbies that came here in 2016 or something and are ignorant of the stuff old Ganker liked, and are just permanently trapped in the minds of their 10 year old selves running off nostalgia.
