Best RPGs of all time Page 2. Neverwinter Nights 2. Release date 2. 00. Developer Obsidian Entertainment GOGWe loved Bio. Wares original Neverwinter Nights from 2. Neverwinter Nights 2 was in a class all of its own. Whereas the original had a fairly weak main campaign that mainly seemed aimed at showing what the DM kit was capable of, Obsidian Entertainment managed to equal and arguably outdo Bio. Wares storytelling prowess in the sequel when it took over the helm. The whole affair brimmed with humor, and companions such as the raucous dwarf Khelgar Ironfist still have few rivals in personality nine years later. And the quality just kept coming. Shades of The Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past reveal themselves in the masterful Shadow of the Betrayer expansions focus on two halves of the same world, but Obsidian skillfully uses that familiar framework to deliver an unforgettable commentary on religion. Gothic 2. Release date 2. Developer Piranha Bytes Humble Store, Steam. RkAPv8pzf8k.jpg' alt='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' title='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' />Includes downloads, cheats, reviews, and articles. Rolo01/20053402310_Kotor2_1.jpg' alt='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' title='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' />Few games are as staunchly open worldand unforgivingas Gothic 2. The first time we played it, we left town in the wrong direction and immediately met monsters many levels higher than us, and died horribly. Lesson learned. It sounds like Gothic 2 is too punishing, but we love the way it forces us to learn our way through its world. Enemies dont scale with your level, as they do in the Elder Scrolls series, and youll have to pay close attention to quest text and NPCs to find your path. Once you doand overcome the awkward controlstheres a huge, sprawling RPG at your fingertips, and while you may have felt weak and powerless at the beginning, youll be a true badass by the end. Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' title='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' />Release date 2. Developer Bethesda Softworks Humble Store, Steam Special EditionPick a direction and run. Youre almost guaranteed to discover some small adventure, some small chunk of world that will engage you. Its that content density that makes Skyrim constantly rewarding. A visit to the Mages Guild will turn into an area spanning search for knowledge. A random chat with an NPC will lead you to a far off dungeon, searching for a legendary relic. You could be picking berries on the side of a mountain and discover a dragon. Oops, accidental dragon fight. And if you somehow exhaust all of Bethesdas content, rest assured that modders have more waiting for you in Steam Workshopthat lively community has kept Skyrim in the Steam top 1. Some on the PC Gamer team keep a modded up Skyrim install handy, just in case they feel like adventure. Thats some high praise. Pillars of Eternity. Release date 2. 01. DARTHSION5.jpg' alt='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' title='Obsidian Kotor 2 Patch' />Developer Obsidian Entertainment Humble Store, Steam. Theres very little about Pillars of Eternity thats actually innovative in fact, its whole Kickstarter funded existence is based on appealing to the nostalgia for aging Infinity Engine CRPGs like Baldurs Gate II. That usually matters little, though, since Pillars of Eternity pulls it off so damned well. The graphics lean a little too heavily on the 1. Obsidian Entertainment uses it to weave a wonderful if bleak and usually humorless narrative that brilliantly touches on everything from religious conflicts to social struggles. It doesnt hurt that Obsidian infused almost every step of the world with its own story and smidge of lore, and a new patch introduced hours of additional voice work that make the experience even more enjoyable. Its also brutally difficult in parts, and even its easier modes demand a dance of pausing and barking out orders to multiple party members that many contemporary RPGs shy from. Thats not such a bad thing, though, as Pillars of Eternity is a stark testament that such unforgiving designs still have widespread appeal in this age of accessibility.

Developer Blue Sky Productions aka Looking Glass Studios GOGDesigner Paul Neurath originally conceived of a dungeon simulator that would turn traditional role playing conventions on their head. Called Underworld, he and his team, the future Looking Glass Studios, built a game that rewarded real world thinking to solve puzzles and please NPCs. Ultima developer Origin Systems was so impressed by the three dimensional engine you could look up and down and first person combat that it bought the rights to the game, and suddenly the Avatar was trapped in the Stygian Abyss instead of some faceless schmuck. Characters that are normally enemies are friends in Underworld, and we love that you may not be able to tell. Attacking a goblin might be a bad move, because hes just as likely to be your friend. The first time we popped popcorn with a campfire and an ear of corn, we knew we werent in any old dungeon crawler. Underworld was a technological marvel in 1. Stygian Abyss is just as exciting today. Divinity Original Sin. Release date 2. 01. Developer Larian Studios Humble Store, Steam. Divinity was a Kickstarter success story that still somehow took us by surprise. Unlike most RPGs, its designed with co op in mindyou even control two protagonists in the single player version, roleplaying different motivations through conversations. Larian designed encounters thinking that someone could always disagree, or ruin things for you, or even kill the NPC you need to talk tomeaning that quests have to be solvable in unorthodox ways. The writing in Divinity is consistently top notch. Sure, sometimes youll have to destroy a goblin riding a giant mechanical robot, or talk to a dog to solve a quest. But that dog may have a heartbreaking story for you, and maybe youll cry just a little bit like we did. Larian commits to Divinitys world, and that commitment pays off. This is the kind of freeform, epic, party based RPG we havent had since the days of Ultima, and its exactly what we love from an RPG. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2. Rolf Zuckowski Lieder. Release date 2. 00. Developer Obsidian Humble Store, Steam. While Bio. Wares first KOTOR is a Star Wars classic, KOTOR 2 takes the franchise in a bolder direction. Instead of focusing on the Light or Dark sides of the Force, the Jedi Exile of Obsidians sequel deals in shades of gray. Alliances are made, then broken, then remade in the aftermath. Choices you think are good just turn out to betray other characters. The end result is possibly the most nuanced take on The Force in the entire Star Wars Expanded Universe, and definitely its most complex villains. Like many Obsidian early games, KOTOR 2s truncated development meant that whole areas had to be cut out. A fan made mod restores much of that content, including a droid planet, and fixes lots of outstanding bugs, showing yet again that PC gamers will work hard to maintain their favorite games. Vampire The Masquerade Bloodlines. Release date 2. 00. Developer Troika Humble Store, Steam. Its all about atmospherefrom the goth clubs where you meet contacts, to the back alleys where you scavenge for rat blood, to the haunted Ocean House Hotel one of the best quests in the game. Bloodlines ambitious use of White Wolfs Vampire universe means it looks and feels different from the other sword and sorcery games on this list. Unfortunately, that signature Troika ambition also means lots of bugs and some mechanics that just dont mesh well. The endgame includes some particularly sloggy dungeons, but no other game truly drops you into a Vampire world. This is truly a cult classic of an RPG, and the fanbase has been patching and improving the game ever since release.
