Planescape Torment is probably the most immersive RPG i have ever played, absolutely underrated and brillant storytelling.
I played it a few years ago and it was an experience i will never forget.
the game is the game

The Fallout series is pretty baller, specially the first 2 games and the ones made by Bethesda (FO 3 and New Vegas). Fallout 1 and 2 are really hardcore turn-based RPGs.

If you own a PSX (or, erm, a PSX emulator..) I'd suggest Final Fantasy Tactics, Vagrant Story, Suikoden or Xenogears.

The recent EA RPGs are pretty meh if compared to the standards of yore (such as Baldur's Gate or Neverwinter Nights) - Dragon Age: Origins, for instance, felt so... bland.

Dark Souls! I know it's probably the opposite of relaxing, but it is a really fun rpg and shouldn't be boring to play.
Downside is, if you don't have a 360 or a ps3, you can't play it :/

Lost Odyssey was pretty fun. It's a JRPG pretty similar to FF games.
I get it.

If you don't mind outdated graphics and midi music, just get a SNES/DS emulator and rock FF4, FF6, Chrono Trigger, Tale of Phantasia...etc. Probably the cheapest way to run through a bunch of RPG classics.

The problem with RPGs these days is that they are too action-heavy. They are all becoming like Diablo 2 and I fear 3 where it's all about how fast you can click. And very repetitive dungeons etc...

The greatest experience I ever had with RPGs was when I played ULTIMA VII, VIII and IX a long long time ago when they were cutting edge. Main reason I believe was that I played these games at an age when video games still impressed me.

played gothic 1 pretty far. decent game.

in general i think im not going to start bothering with console emulators, its too much hassle. i also really hate the control of console games, one time when i visited a friend and played with him on his xbox, the controller tilted me super hard. i guess it might be a bit better with the keyboard, but still >_<.

Try out Dragon Age: Origins, I didn't really enjoy the 2nd one, but the first kept me solidly entertained for 40+ hours .

Here's the trailer if you don't know it already:

Yeah check out Dragon Age: Origins. Don't even think about the second one, it wasn't worth the money at all. Also check out Mass Effect 1, 2 and 3 is coming out soon, they are amazing games with a compelling story, good characters, and fun game play.

Also check out Fallout 3. It was kinda like Skyrim but apocalyptic and with guns. It was a lot of fun and I put a lot of time into it. I didn't like New Vegas much, it just lacked the atmosphere and feel of 3 in my opinion.

Get a PS3, buy Demon's Souls then Dark Souls, if your PS3 and/or controller isn't broken before you complete the game, you are man.

For good reference, http://www.reddit.com/r/gaming/comments/acz2t/let_me_tell_you_about_demons_souls/


sorry, but i disagree. I found the game extremely easy on both a knight and a royalty play through, the difficulty comes from not farming (and stupid things like falling in holes). After I beat the first two stages (which too forever,and were the actual game i might add) the game got really boring and i beat it without dying soon after.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

I dont even have a TV, and i have no space for a TV in my flat, so im definitely not going to buy any consoles. As said in my previous post, i really dislike consoles.

unfortunately your choices are then limited to emulators and bad western rpgs

I don't get it, you can connect a console to a computer monitor these days pretty easily as long as you have HDMI. Connect your speakers to the AUX connection on the monitor an viola!


I play NWN2 and it's a pretty fun game to play that's not too difficult. I loved my dual wielding 2H weapon ranger with some great cleave action.

DA:O mageplay is fairly boring because you have to make the decision (on non easy difficulties) between usefulness and fun.

yeah your buff/disable mage is the best possible party member, but sitting there autoattacking isn't what i want my mage to be doing the whole game.

all the good damage spells deal immense friendly fire, it's like you can pick between having a defiler/sentry combo or a siege tank that casts BW storms, but all your allies are SC2 zerglings.

That being said there is some fun to be had playing a very bad character in DA:O since it takes alot of skill, but honestly auto-attacking as a mage.

NWN2 Warlock you'd love, especially once you get hellfire $_$

Dragon Age: Origins is pretty good but its combat system leaves a lot to be desired.

It's unfortunate you don't like scifi. Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas are really good games.
