Edit: lol jk, if Dragons Age was too slow then I doubt you'll enjoy the series. Try the Kingdom Hearts series. Don't let the Disney logo turn you away, it's actually got a fairly deep and mature storyline to it. The combat is also very fast and furious in a way. | ||

Baldur's Gate I, II and expansions Fallout I and II Planescape: Torment Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic I and II Might and Magic series (although everything below VII or VIII will have a bit too dated graphics for todays computers). Play these and you're good in the "Best RPG ever made" department. | ||

If you don't mind old school graphics you should play Planescape Torment, cause the story is amazing. And last but not least I recommend Vampire - The Masquerade : Bloodlines, with the latest fan patch! | ||

I also found the Overlord series enjoyable. Not really RPGs exactly, more like adventure games with slight customization options but the crude and dark humor involved made it worth it for me. | ||

Games like The Witcher and Mass Effect are decent action heavy games with fast combat. | ||

Torchlight Prettymuch an affordable, enjoyable Diablo II clone. Extremely fun and a good time killer. Titan Quest A good, non-life dominating multiplayer RPG, similar to Torchlight except you can bring friends. Older game but still good graphics. PC Turn-based RPGs: Sad story. Not many good ones any more. I have none to recommend. Most of the recent Final Fantasies have been very disappointing. Definitely steer clear of those. Latest one has a story that is painfully, painfully childish. | ||

Play these and you're good in the "Best RPG ever made" department. These are some excellent suggestions. I'd like to ad that you can pick up BG1(and 2?) and FO1 and 2 from Good Ol Games. Planescape too I think. In addition I'd recommend TES II as well, it's available for free from Bethesda and for a newer game The Witcher.

I'd disagree, I love all those games and found DA:O to have boring combat as well. Most people would agree with that statement. It lacks the strategic depth that a slower turn based game should provide. | ||

PS:T was shallower than DAO, KotOR is about as shallow as they get before turning into an action game, Morrowind is different, I've never played Might and Magic. BGII had a lot more depth than DAO, though I don't know about the original I remember having difficulty with BGI but I was young at the time and it was my first RPG ever, so I don't know how I'd classify it. I don't remember FO I and II clearly enough to decide. | ||

Play these and you're good in the "Best RPG ever made" department. A strong list. I'd add Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura if you want a true RPG experience. These are pretty hardcore RPG games though and not for everyone. The fact that you didn't like Dragon Age is a good sign though as it's such a shallow crap game  | ||
