RPG System Wars Poll: Who are the best of RPG developers?(Explain)

yeah your right about the oc , but it does pick up the pace. Mask of the betrayer was great!! The thing about NWN2 though, for me at least was all the cool modules people made. There were some that had complete voice acting and did things so out of the norm with custom scrpiting. I loved that aspect of it. So much so that I started making my own. never published though:( Midnightshade29

True, the modules for it are excelent, unfortunantly it took the game two years until we finally started getting some good ones

[QUOTE="ohthemanatee"]

[QUOTE="Midnightshade29"] ME2 is a stripped down rpg lite - shooter type game made specifically for the console crowd. There was no reason they need to take away skill trees and loot. Sorry I like getting loot and building up my characters. As well as an epic story, wasn't me2 also just a bunch of side stories on how they all get together for part3? (haven't' played the game yet, and am still hesitant to do so for the reasons i mentioned)

Kotor 1 and 2 had loot, so did dragons age, there was no reason to abandon that, and take away the stat based combat. Without that you are playing a shooter with dialog...hence why so many rpg haters loved the game on this forum.

Midnightshade29

didn't you create a thread criticizing Mass effect 2 only to discover you hadn't even played the game?

Ugh Bioware doesnt make good handheld games though so I thought Square would win

Bioware for me, so far this generation. Dragon Age: Origins is excellent.

I'll just list my thoughts on them all:

Square Enix: Arent as good as they used to be, so they are no longer the best imo.

Bioware: I thought ME1 was massively overated and i thought KOTOR wouldnt have been considered so great if it wasnt Star Wars, ME2 was great and fixed so many problems with the first game, Dragon Age: Origins is the best Bioware game i have played so far it was excellent so they are very highly regarded by me for it.

Atlus: Make lots of unique games and i really like what they are doing with JRPGs, them publishing Demon's Souls means nothing to me because i imported the game from Asia ages before the US release.

Bethesda: There games are quite good but there latest games i have played have been horribly buggy which really ruins the experiance.

Since there is no Black Isle or Troika on the poll and I don´t like to vote "other",I´ll cast my vote on Bioware.

and for Atlus they made GOY

I see you haven't looked into how publishers and developers are two different things.

Also I have no favorite, different (good) RPG developers are good for different reasons.

bioware blows each of these completely out of the water.

bioware's spread sheet speaks volumes.

He was talking about last years GOTY, and last years GOTY was Demon's Souls.

Bioware for CONSISTENCY

They may not have the best resume, but right now Bioware has been consistently releasing hits for the past decade.

Handhelds sell better here and I know that they hyped their Sonic Chronicles or whatever and it turned out not so good.

They are amazing console and PC devs but Square Obliterates them in handhelds

Jade Empire has an 89 at Metacritic. Really, if 89 is their worst effort, they are practically gods.

I enjoyed Jade Empire quite a lot. It was better than some of their more acclaimed titles.

IMO, they are the best dev out there right now, regardless of genre.

Bioware is currently the best.

I use to love Squaresoft but they are getting awful at making RPGs. Some of their new games are ok but, when they drop buckets of money to make a game you would think it be at least be a great game. How can you mess up when you have a gigantic budget? Seriously, they made incredible games in the past and are swimming in money. They should be making better games now then they ever did. Instead it's the other way around.

Well Bioware will win this for sure but I'm going to say Bethesda because of Fallout.

Have to go with Bioware. Only they would release two uber-games within 60 days of each other (DA:O and ME2) and have both do so well in sales.
