Need a game (again)
« on: May 02, 2012, 04:49:59 pm »

A story driven, party based rpg. No futuristic stuff i want swords, axes, bows, magic - the usual suspects please. Not hack&slash, idealy something not turn based, but not exaclty fluid if you know what i mean (kinda like d&d rolls with pauses, tactics etc.). Excelent story is the most important factor.

Cant find any games that seem interesting, either i have played them already or i just dont like the things i see. 

Need help with choosing

Neverwinter Nights is not party based, but would fit all the other requirements.

Legend of Grimrock came out very recently, it is a party based dungeon crawler, which, supposedly, is very good, haven't tried it myself yet.

WTF? That is just a list of random games, most of which are not even RPG games in the slightest...

NWN is party based! Besides, stay away from NWN 2... the first part of NWN and its Add-Ons is way better storywise and gameplay-wise too. If you havent played NWN yet, do it, it's a awesome classic which is fun even by todays standards.

Dungeon Siege 1 and Dungeon Siege: Legends of Aranna. DS II is OK-ish too, but don't even glance at DS III for it will consume your soul and make you want to feed yourself to couple of flesh-eating cows.

Dungeon Siege series sucked imo.

I would try as suggest Neverwinter Nights 1, 2 is ok but 1 is better but a lot older.

Sins of a Solar Empire is also a good RTS but it doesn't really fit into anything you're looking for.

Well "Risen 2 Dark Waters" came out. And I must say, I tought it sux as bad as Risen 1.

You know what....it does, combat is akward and even complete bullshit at times...but eventually u get used to it and I tell u why you get used to it.

Risen 2 is the most coolest Pirate adventure game ever. The story is pretty awesome and the adventures u get into rule. Not to mention u can use monkies, parrots, throw sand in your opponents face and cut his face off when his blinded, make voodoo dolls to control people.  U get a ship at the middle of a game and than u can decide where u go, so its not very liniar as the first one. And the game has a good sence of humor in it.

If its story u want than Risen 2 is definately your game, it has pretty much everything from all pirate tales put together.

Well than, if you keep at it you will be done in 5-6 days.

Witcher 2 is a shitloads long game and in Risen 2  u will want to comb every little part of the world u can possibly find for moar loot, cause the loot in this game rules. :wink:

It's not bullshit, it's pretty much the same as in Gothic 3. You need good timing. And AI on hardest performs better than 80% of cRPG players.
