Best of all time

Nothing here!


Night in the Woods
Night in the Woods
A somber and fulfilling narrative told with consistently clever subversion of adventure game tropes that work to remove any friction between the player and this specific main character, all wrapped in a beautiful art style and a fantastic soundtrack.

Disco Elysium
Disco Elysium
Pure story take on RPG's with simply fantastic dialogue and exploration. You could put this shit up there with any Steinbeck or Orwell novel as a simply unparalleled work of political fiction.

Baldur's Gate 3
Baldur's Gate 3
While I'm gonna have to give the "best narrative game with stats" title to Disco just because it absolutely trounces the thematic depth of this game, Baldur's Gate 3 is still the best swords and words RPG ever

Planescape: Torment
Planescape: Torment
Unparalleled and simply epic story in a fantasy RPG with compelling enough game mechanics to carry it out

Pizza Tower
Pizza Tower
This shit rocks so hard, unbelievable and consistent creativity with an ideal difficulty curve and also probably the funniest thing ever made

PHYSICAL PAIN I'VE NEVER FELT FROM A GAME

Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077
The closest thing we'll get to that "playable movie" ideal for video games, absolutely fucking incredible action game front-to-back with an insane amount of emotional highs. Plus Night City is probably the best setting in fictional history.

Elden Ring
Elden Ring
As a simple man who wants to dungeon-delve in a cool setting more than most RPG fans, this provides more content in that vain than anything else and it's consistently cool

MY FALLOUT 4. Unbelievably refined combat with excellent style and quest design, pretty much a longer, more fulfilling, Fallout.

Fallout 2
Fallout 2
More, longer, Fallout.

on fallout:

Granddaddy of CRPGs, Fallout accomplishes the unthinkable task of providing the compelling combat and progression of high-production console RPGs but one-ups them by providing a narrative where player agency actually matters and a freely explorable world that lives up to scope only implied in other titles.
