It is so much fun to play the game and immerse yourself in the world Blizzard has created. nah , it's a boring grindfest the only fun part about it is the PvP , even then blizzard ruined it by destroying the twink community | ||

It looks like all the companies care about now is sell-factor and how much more graphically advanced their game is compared to the competition or how realistic does shit look there. No one ever gives notice to details like story, coherency, atmosphere and overall experience any more. I don't know about you, but I can't recall any recent game where I would actually feel immersed in and compelled to play despite literally falling asleep at the keyboard. When I first got Morrowind on my hands I would play it 16hrs/day for 2 months straight and wouldn't get bored with it. Even now I like to launch it from time to time to re-live some of the fond memories I have about this game. I find myself feeling the same way, Manitou. However, I've also found myself wondering if it's not just because I'm getting older, because my interests/priorities are changing, and because as a 26 year old who has gamed since he was 4, I've just about seen it all before... rather than it being a matter of game companies producing absolute trash. These days I play games that are a 'quick fix' because I dont have 16 hours a day to play games like I did when I was in university. I dont have the interest in staying up until 4am playing Starcraft anymore because I value my sleep much more now... These days I jump on SC2, or COD, or SF4, or something similar, play for 20mins to an hour, and then I'm done. That said, I think there are new games being made that I probably would play the absolute shit out of if I were younger... that I would find myself immersed in if I had not seen so much of it before... that I would be inclined to waste hours in if I actually had them to spare. Games like Demons Souls, Dragon Age, Uncharted 2. I mean, yeah I agree that lots of the brilliant games of the past still outshine those made today, but I don't know if I agree with you that the games these days are all that bad because they are poorly made, as opposed to us older gamers looking back with rose coloured glasses. | ||

Just finished playing it and definitely a recommended game. I can't seem to unlock the 4th dungeon though, I've met that Demon guy and changed my store to goth/dark, still nothing =( But good fun, got it off steam with some indie pack for $5. | ||

I'd recommend the Avernum and Geneforge series, theyre by an independent developer: Spiderweb software. They have a great story with multiple endings and ways to play, the combat and character progression is also great. The graphics are pretty dated but the most recent games look decent. | ||

Also, if you want a more MMORPG type game, you can try D&D Online, it's free now, and it's not bad. The best part of that game has got to be the Dungeon Master Voice. | ||

Chrono Trigger! Final Fantasy VI Secret of Mana Breath of Fire II Illusion of Gaia/Time Super Mario RPG Zelda: A Link to the Past (not really RPG, but reeeally good) If you don't want to buy a SNES, download an emulator! | ||

There's a number of games you could try - Divine Divinity, Sacred, Dungeon Siege - but I found most of those lacking. Once you're spoiled by Diablo 2, there's no going back. If you already own Torchlight, you won't find a better single player action-RPG before Diablo 3 is released. *edit: Yeah, I totally forgot Titan's Quest. It's pretty cool actually. | ||
