Morrowind is of course an option but it feels dumb to play it after I've played Oblivion. Also I'm not too fond of 3d graphics in RPG's.

I've played Dungeon Siege and boy do those games get repetetive

Gothic might be interesting I guess...

give planescape torment a try! just look over the graphics and enjoy the best rpg ever made

if u want to play sth new i would go with dragon age, storyline not that impressing but it has its other climaxes


if u got a widescreen than there is a patch to make the game look less _old_, http://www.gibberlings3.net/widescreen/ (havent tried mit myself)


I've tried playing Torment at least 10 times due to feedback such as yours. Unfortunately I just cannot deal with reading all that dialogue. A few days after reinstalling I will just not play any more. I guess I've been spoiled by the 100% voice acted dialogue of newer RPGs =(


Hmm funny, I can't stand listening to voice acted dialogue in the long run and prefer reading for myself since it's quicker. I love a good story as much as anyone else, but there has to be alot of fighting too. IMO Baldur's gate comes close to perfection with this in mind.


I know, man. It sucks knowing I'm missing out on a masterpiece. Curse my laziness.

Oh and, if you don't feel like going down the Vampire route (which I always recommend) I will second KOTOR. It's brilliant.

Everyone's KOTOR'ing it up it seems! I've tried it but for some reason grew bored and uninstalled it. Should I give it more time?

The 3d graphics make it not as good for me. Now, if it would've been in topographic view I would probably love it

I don't think I got very far in it either. I stopped playing after I became a Jedi... Which is most likely when the game gets good. I just get distracted easily. I'd like to give it another try though.

Yeah me too, I quit before that though. I would also like to try it again and I pray that my patience is on my side.

Btw, is your nickname from the finnish word for hero, "sankari"? Just curious.

play ANACHRONOX if you havent yet !!!!

its by far the best RPG ever made IMO and provides kickass storylines, epic plot, very nice battle system (think of an improved final fantasy 7/8/etc. battle system) nice UI (it uses 3rd person view with the quake 2 engine IIRC), and HILARIOUS party characters including - just to name a few- your mouse cursor, a robot-toy struggling for adulthood, a superhero in his most recent slump and an entire planet (LOL much?)

plsplsplsplspls give it a try (btw it was created by the same ppl who did Deus Ex -> ION STORM)

There are only two downsides to playing Morrowind after Oblivion. The graphics and how fleshed out the guild quests are in Oblivion. Nearly everything else about Morrowind is superior to Oblivion. Game is more fleshed out, the story is better, they don't hold your hand as much, and it's just so much more enjoyable as a whole.

If you really liked Oblivion, and can't find a 2D game to play, definitely try Morrowind. Shame you didn't pick it up on Steam a few months back, it was only $5 for it and both expansions.

It was on Steam for $5? wtf that's an awesome deal

I might try Morrowind, if I find it cheap at the store.

Yeah, I loved the game so much that I've purchased it three times.

Once on Xbox, which was an incredibly buggy version, but I still logged 200+ hours into it. Then the GOTY edition on Xbox again, which was still considerably buggy, but I still logged in another 200 hours or so. Then when the GOTY edition was on Steam for $5, I couldn't pass it up. I've only played it about 20 hours this go, but I know it's a game I can go back to whenever I have nothing else to do, and I'll enjoy it.

If your looking for some combat give TOEE a try. The first village is ass boring but after that it picks up and turns into a great game. Some of the best D&D combat around.

In fact i'd recommend all three of troika's games. They're all pretty stong for different reasons and all have the 'proper' crpg feel to them.

Yes, you must give it more time! Let yourself get immersed in the awesomeness that is KOTOR

I'd recommend The Witcher, quite a nice action-rpg with some unique elements of play. Maybe the only bigger game I played through in the last 3 years or so.

Here's the intro video, in case you're interested. A bit deceptive about the fight system :-p, but maybe you like the setting.

If you decide to try it, make sure you patch your version, otherwise it has some crazy load times.
BW fighting!

Yeah, KOTOR is the only game I ever had dreams about.

Oh yeah and I second The Witcher, though I doubt the OP's computer can handle it. It's the best RPG of the last 5 years IMO.

Hm, I suspect that D&D Temple of elemental evil would make me all giddy and warm inside

I feel an almost OCD-like urge to play KOTOR soon after all the praise


SO, The main ones I could play so far are:

KOTOR, Morrowind, D&D ToEE, Icewind dale (I kind of want to play through this series), Titan Quest, Gothic, Planescape:Torment

Hmm, and some other ones mentioned like Witcher, Dragon Age (hmm....) etc.

Yeah I think I was randomly looking up words in a translator to find a nice sounding nickname.

I really loved BG1 and BG2 and the the 2 KOTR games, but I have to say I hate Icewind Dale
this game is so bad, the only thing you do is fighting
and I don't mean like fighting cool fights against 1 dragon, but against like 30 lesser creeps who are just annyoing and tend to kill you after you hacked on them for 10 mins, just because there are so many of them
I really recommand you, that if you aren't really into hack and slash in BG format not to play IWD

Really? Is that true for both IWD 1 and 2?

After all the games got quite decent reviews at 85-90% according to wiki.
