I have played: Mass effect 1 and 2, Elder scrolls 3 and 4, Fable 1 (Lost Chapters) and 3, The Witcher 1, Dragon age origins, DA Awakening, Dragon age 2, Diablo 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas and i guess thats it... so any good RPGs out now?
all of the above and then if your willing to take its blandness get alien/zobie shooter its a decent dungeon crawler that its basically where alien swarm stole many of its concepts and gameplay elements
Dungeon Siege (1-2), Sacred. Both are hack'n'slash RPGs, DS is in 3D, but I think Sacred is much better since it implements more of good ideas. You mentioned only Diablo 2, I think the first episode is also an enjoyable one. System Shock and Deus Ex would better fit another genre, but they also build heavily on RPG elements. Sims Medieval is one fresh title, and altough it's far from normal RPGs, I liked that you can choose casts like Blacksmith and Troubadour. Of course the game is only interesting until the time you explore everything, but I liked this new wrapping of the traditional RPG context-elements. Some episodes of Final Fantasy (I know about 7 and 8) have been ported to PC, in case JRPGs don't give you the creeps. Older titles like Elder's Scrolls 1-2, Might&Magic, Wizardy, Ultima etc... require this retro-geek attitude to cause some fun, and they also need require DOS environment (they're good games, it's just their graphics won't make your chin fall).
