What Is Your All Time Fav RPG?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Only one person mentioned my favourite RPG of all time. I would say thankyou, but I really wanted to be the first to say it. So, screw you foxhound_fox:P.
Definitely the coolest RPG to ever hit the scene in the last couple of years, was:
Following in the footsteps of the Fallout series (Troika Games was composed of previous Interplay/Black Isle Studios developers. They have subseqently moved on into Obsidian Entertainment), "Bloodlines" had the edginess of story/setting like Fallout, the true choice/consequence of Fallout, and also the complete bugginess of Fallout. But man was it (and still is) a game.
Choose one of the vastly different species of Vampire, and the game must be played different each time. If you're an ugly Nosferatu, you're only going to get around through the sewer system, where no human can see you. If you're a Toreador, you're going to sweet talk your way through the game.
It has a much better conversation system than what Bioware has been recently putting out. All the conversation branches are not clear cut good or bad options, and most, if not all choices you make in the conversation have bearings on what you can and can't do in the future.
This is a sentence to catch out the people who just post in forums but neglect to read what other people say. If you're not selfish, you're gonna quote or mention this in your post.
A lot of characters just stand out. The Voerman sisters who own the asylum are pretty darn cool, and even the minor players like Knox are a joy to see. Some levels are truly magnificent, and "Bloodlines" may just have had one of the scariest sequences in recent years, let alone 2004. That level, is the infamous Ocean View Hotel.
The only problems is that this game is (was) buggy, and the combat was kinda crap. Those problems have mostly been solved. I mean, even when "Bloodlines" is heavily underappreciated, there's still a hardcore community releasing patches that continue to improve the smoothness of the game. If you have an itchy trigger finger, even GameSpot hosts some patches that make the game more like a FPS just to make the combat a little more fun and easier.
But yeah, amazing game. In the top 5 of my most favourite games ever, and definitely my most favourite RPG of all time.
