So following the discussion in the Valkyrie profile thread I've decided to make a poll to see what's everyone's favorite rpg for the PC.
*Note: I didn't add hack and slash rpgs ala Diablo, Dungeon Siege etc. Had no space for Kotor series .
Poll: Favorite PC RPG (Vote): Fallout 1 (Vote): Fallout 2 (Vote): Icewind Dale 1 (Vote): Icewind Dale 2 (Vote): Neverwinter Nights 1 (Vote): Neverwinter Nights 2 (Vote): Baldur's Gate 1 (Vote): Baldur's Gate 2 (Vote): Planescape Torment (Vote): The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (Vote): The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (Vote): Other

Baldurs gate 2. Must have played it through 10+ times and i still enjoy it everytime.
Edit: Funny that you said you didn't add hack n slash, but added oblivion, which is nothing more than a pretty hack n slash :p

Why is there no Diablo or Diablo II when its going to be one of the most popular votes?

I mentioned why in the post.

Baldurs 2 for sure, i've done it more than 20 times, used a shitload of adds/mappacks/custom char/whatever for it.
Most of the other choice are really good though.
Arcanum was quite good too.
Anyway, all these games are great but a bit old, does anyone got some more recent name to add (other than mass effect )?

Your definition of RPG must be a bit off, also Valkyrie P is a PS game not PC 
I vote for Monkey Island!

Baldur's Gate 2, played it through only once or twice though, not like rest of you guys

Who said it's a pc game?

NWN Part 1 was one of the best games I've ever played. The only thing I didn't like about it is how when you completed each "Area" you'd instantly be warped to the next one. There was no traveling around the world so to speak.

I also loved NWN, but not so for the single player. I loved playing on the "role playing" servers online. Sure you had to stay in character the whole time, but god damn, some of my best RPG memories are from that. There's just no other RPG around with the amount of customisation that nwn offers. Trying to come up with insane builds (fighter/bard/pm with epic warding/ma <3)

The Gothic series. I don't know if the Gothic games are known in English-speaking countries, but they really rock.
|
BG 2 for sure although fallout 1 and 2 are really awesome.
|
i think KOTOR deserves a mention. didn't it win game of the year or something, and is considered the best star wars game? maybe combine the games and their sequels so you can fit more games in the poll.
|
where the hell is gothic ? ;o i love that series !!! the best !
|
Why is morrowind considered an RPG if its just a hack n slash then..? Diablo 1 and 2 are both RPG's, you're trying to refine a genre for no reason .
|
probably BG2 because of it's sheer volume, NWN1 was cool though, 2 kinda sucked
