we have rpgs covering all kinds of differnt stuff, fantasy worlds, post apocalyptic times, space travel etc. i am sure everyone knows what games i am talking about. we still dont have a really good rpg on the old west. i think everyone would agree that one of the reasons that red dead redemption was so good was the open world and the freedom to do whatever you want. still it was no rpg. we can dig up a lot of different character classes if we go through movies or older games, could even have different beginings like DA, you know, maybe a bandit, a sheriff, or an iroquis or something. what do you guys think?

Ask Rockstar Games for another Red Dead Redemption for PC this time.

Not a fan of westerns. I'd love a modern day rpg, though.

A non combat RPG would be great. But I doubt it would sell enough for anyone to bother making.

There could still be violence, maybe downplayed, and the focus of the game could be more about exploration, story, character progression through solving mysteries. Maybe a detective style rpg would be cool. Or something like the X files.

What ever happened to mystery games? I remember an old Scooby Doo for Genesis that was really fun.

Whenever I peruse GoG, I'm reminded of the lack of innovation in todays gaming market. There were so many games back then that straddled genres or defied classification. Publishers and devs took more risks and the variety of games today pales in comparison. Makes me sound like an old fuddy duddy but its true. I want to see devs branch out more.

I may not like a Western rpg, but I guess I'd still love to see someone take a stab at it.

Not sure if RPG is the best format for a western game. But there has been a lack of quality western games over the years and personally I would love to see more of them.

The lack off innovation in todays gaming market is simply down to money.

An RPG can fit into anything. If you can assume a role you can role play it.

Ah every now and then I play some pen and paper Western RPGs. If well done it could be pretty good.

I suppose most games that would fit this bill fall into the 'puzzle' category, like the Longest journey, Dreamfall, Grim Fandango, Jazz & Faust, Myst etc. I've never liked this genre much, and now you point it out they are all staggeringly linear, so not much chance of RP. Still, the Longest journey & Dreamfall are worth a try, and even Grim Fandango if you fancy something really retro.

Honestly I think Fallout New Vegas feels more Wild West than post-apocalyptic with it's setting.

If you really want an explicitly Wild West RPG then play one of the Wild Arms games...except Wild Arms 4, that one sucked.  Wild Arms 2 was my favorite.

Those fall under adventure games, not RPGs.

The Fallout games all have a western feel to them especially New Vegas. Post apocalyptic though.
