Oblivion kept all of the flaws that Morrowind had, removed much of its greatness, added some stupid shit like leveled gear and random bandits with daedric equipment and then had ~three voice actors voice every npc in the game. | ||

But if you were really hardcore you'd play roguelike games such as Angband.  | ||

Defintely second his recommendation. On May 12 2010 06:57 beef42 wrote: i second this poster. this game is extremely difficult without extensive D&D twinking knowledge. And boils down to a Bugbear murder simulator with it. | ||

For something that is just hard, there is final fantasy. | ||

For example, upgrade sniper rifle and just kill everything before they even notice you are there. You need to play Deus Ex with handicaps like crow bars only or no upgrades. | ||

Not really a full fledged RPG, but it has some RPG elements in there. Just make sure to crank the damage sliders to "Normal" which is the hardest. | ||

The beginning when you have shitty weapons, no ammo and poor skills isn't that easy. | ||

You should consider trying out roguelikes, like dungeon crawl. | ||

Most of my experiences come from consoles, PC's rpgs appear to be more difficult, like Baldur's Gate, Morrowind, Ultima series, etc. I heard the Might & Magic series can be quite difficult if you can stay away from the exploits. A game you haven't played but that's quite easy is Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Just AMAZING. And, finally, in the turn-based strategy games (you played X-Com, the best there is) you can try Jagged Alliance and Mission Force: Cyberstorm (a personal favorite of mine, buy mechs, customize them, clone a pilot and drug him! Ah, the joys of gaming before the political correctness squad ever existed) . I also heard nice things about Master of Magic.

I.e. no Magic, no inns, etc etc. There's several "challeneges" out there that make them much more fun/challenging. GL HF ^^ I do this all the time, Phantasy Star IV without using inns, Skies of Arcadia without buying equipment, etc. If you look at Realms Beyond Diablo that are tons of these "challenges", some silly and some are really interesting, like the Amazon and Gothic for Diablo 1. Final Fantasy Tactics fit in this too. On May 12 2010 07:07 Reno(TE) wrote: Try psp game FFVII: Crisis core on hard mode. Some points are a joke! I tried that, it wasn't really difficult but boring. Enemies had tons of HP but that's that. | ||

So difficult Someone said oblivion before... with the difficulty slider all the way up and a few difficulty increasing mods it can be really hard. | ||
