Depends on the Halo game for me, I seem to be the only one who likes ODST, Wars, and Reach

I mean, you can just look at their reception at large and realize your opinion is more a part of the "everyone else" instead of the minority. But if you're talking about this place then yeah, you might be in the minority.

Yup.

What is an RPG?

[SmilesJA]

Sorry.

This game is forgotten, so I revive it thanks to this thread.

Off the top of My head.

Deus Ex 2: Invisible War(Yes, it not as good as the first, but it's...o'kay)
Wasteland 2 apparently(I swear, I will smack the next person to ****** about the graphics!)
Fallout: New Vegas(F:NV>>>>>F3)
Two Human

 

[AventuroLegendary]

Persona 1. It had some fun battles (even with the horrible strategic placement) and a memorable story line in its own right.

 

I also prefer Fable 2 over 1 but that might step into the realm of nostalgia.

 

Because nobody wants to remember Daggerfall xD but that game is beautiful in its own special way.

 

I do...

 

I think you mean Arena.

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. It wasn't what I was expecting as a fan, but I still liked it.

MGS2.

ME3. It's my least favorite of the 3, but I still found it to be a satisfying game. The combat is enhanced and a bit more varied, biggest budget of the 3, and the effects of the previous game are greater in size than the last(though focused mainly on character death and less on some of the more important decisions).

I Wanna Be The Guy: The Game: The Movie. People who complain about unfair deaths should try this game. It's a level of unfair to the point that I laugh more at the deaths than get annoyed.

Too Human

Yeah. I played through the game several times. The story is laughably bad, but I was able to dig into the combat. Commandos in particular had it pretty good. Liked the looting system, fed into the same addictive nature that Diablo and Borderlands employ.

L.A. Noire(NSFW)

Dark Souls, but a game with NES-level difficulty is going to be a barrier for a gaming audience one way or another. Why I like it, Ripped from the Annals of another thread.

Spoiler

In 2010-ish, I played the game Demon Souls. I returned the game to the rental store a few hours after. Liked the look of it, but couldn't really get into the game at all. It felt unnecessarily hard and the combat didn't mesh well with me at the time. Moving a couple years after, I rented Dark Souls, and it was a more enjoyable version of the same formula. Eventually I bought the damned thing, and it turned into my favorite JRPG of all time. Dark Souls is weird in that, at least for me, it requires a very specific mindset to enjoy it. Gameinformer's review put it best: Every death should be a learning lesson. Sort of like solving a combat-based puzzle. Remove the fear of death, and focus on how to improve onesself. If played in the "wrong" way, it's more like a nipple-twisting ache-a-thon. Still has those moments, but not nearly to the same extent.

Dark Souls improves on the original in virtually every way. Instead of Demon's Souls Mario-64-esque system of a Hub World, it's a fully explorable world with more secrets than you can shake a stick at. the Art Style borrows a lot from Shadow of the Colossus, where it's sort of a forbidden land with both verdant grassy areas, and more of the decaying castle-ish environments. The health system doesn't screw you over like in the original. Easily some of the best(and mostly difficult) bosses to date. O&S borrows a bit from Devil May Cry 3's Agnu/Rudra fight, though the differences in Ornstein and Smough's fighting style makes it far more unpredictable.

It also takes many things I absolutely loathe in RPGs, and chucks em' out the window. Having to be so-and-so level to continue the game has always bugged me... and many have been able to beat it without even leveling. It's a game that rewards skill more than any that comes to mind.

So, Lore. Storywise, it can be as big or as little as you want, really. XD You can just hack away at everything and enjoy that, but there's also a lot buried in this world, waiting to be discovered. VaatiVidya and EpicNameBro are renowed for building hours upon hours of Headcanon Analysis on what exactly is going on in the game.

Dark Souls is not for everyone. And I'd never call it "perfect". But for those who are willing to break past the curve of difficulty and see what's revealed, they'll be rewarded with one of the most satisfying RPGs games ever made.

ME1 is the best written of the three by far, especially where main plot was concerned.

[Il Divo]

I agree that ME1 is definitely overrated on this site. Much like KOTOR before it (which I feel is similarly given more praise than I think it deserves) it has rather tedious gameplay and writing that, while competent, is ultimately rather unremarkable.

 

I don't agree with ME3 being far better, though; it had its own rather large set of issues.

 

I'd agree with this in regard to Mass Effect 1. What Mass Effect has in a main plot, it fails to follow through with in terms of gameplay, exploration, and characters, all of which I found to be lackluster. 

 

And even in regard to its main storyline, I only really thought Noveria (excluding Benezia), Virmire, and the finale really stood out. It still had a few face-palm moments.

Devil May Cry 2    

 

mmm Luciaaa *drools*

 

 

 

Wanted Weapons Of Fate

 

Hitting bullets with bullets? How is that not awesome?

[The Valiant Misanthropist]

Wait they are people that hate wasteland 2?

Sadly, yes. It seems like every comment I've seen on videos of it is people bitching about the graphics or how it's too hard and dumbshit like that. A lot of Fallout 3 fanboys seem to hate it too. Or at least, that's what I've seen.   

[A Crusty Knight Of Colour]

Haha, too hard. Man, people are crazy.

[Voragoras]

Dragon Age II.

 

Other than that;

- Kingdom Under Fire: Circle of Doom. (I didn't like what it changed in the series, and I wouldn't say it was a good game, but I liked its simplicity.)

- Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (The environment wasn't the most varied, but the cities felt unique and charming, and the questlines were interesting. A step down from Morrowind, but a step above Skyrim.)

 

 

"An RPG"

My face when the proceeding word doesn't start with a vowel

 

This is a misconception. "An RPG" is grammatically correct - you use "an" when the following word begins with a vowel sound, not an actual vowel.

To tie in to what Kefka said:

I just got back into WoW this year (after not playing since Burning Crusade's release, so it was a big adjustment to what I was used to), so both Cata and MoP have had their time to be tuned and such since release. That being said, I really enjoyed both as far as levelling areas are mostly concerned:

Cata especially once you hit the actual 80-85 levelling zones. A lot of people really dislike Vash'jir for example, but I personally loved it. The expac has some of what I currently consider my favorite dungeons (Vortex Pinnacle, Well of Eternity and Hour of Twilight all included). That being said, the Dragon Aspects and Old Gods are pretty much my favorite parts of Warcraft lore, so maybe I'm biased.

MoP is a bit more of a mixed bag for me. Once again with levelling content, the last stretch to 90 was a bit blargh (mostly cause it deals with the mantids and uggggggh, no like) but the story content dealing with the Sha and Shado-Pan were the parts I rather enjoyed.

I suppose this is the perfect time to state this kind of stuff too, with Warlords of Draenor just around the corner.
