As people who love RPGs, one of the most important aspects of the genre is to get us immersed in the world we play, its lore and characters. Gamers often like to relate to the characters they play, make them something else or just get lost in the world and the story that surrounds a particular franchise.

What RPGs did you guys lost yourself in the most and enjoyed the experience?


For me, they are the following:

Kotor 2: The Sith Lords

As a SW fan, this was the game that I was most proud of. The story surrounding the Exile wasn't heroic or about saving the galaxy. It was about searching for the truth in a galaxy recovering from a war, not knowing that another one was happening in the background. It had a lot of problems with such as a large amount of content cut from the final product (which can be put back in with a patch, for those interested), some bugs, Kreia etc... but I played it loads of times back in the day to a point where I knew every dialogue by heart.

Planescape Torment

The D&D style RPGs back then were really something. Since the announcement of BG EE, I went in and replayed PST and I remembered just how strong this game actually was.
The location and lore is what sets this story apart from the others. Its originality, characters and music make every conversation and important moment memorable.
Seriously, in what game do you have a floating skull, a succubus, a mage on fire and a half-demon follow you around?
It's also living proof that a sad ending can work if you do it correctly.

Morrowind, followed by (in no particular order) Witcher 2, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, Eschalon: Book 1, Deus Ex and STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl (I know that one's a stretch),

If Dark Age of Camelot can be included into any category it'll always win for me. Just saying its name puts a smile on my face.

Best pvp ever made.

I'll throw in Witcher 2 I was so immersed while playing the hours would just fly by. The world, music and graphics all do a great job at sucking you in.

Fallout 2. I can still play this game today and find myself wasting the whole day.

Ditto. Though it's too much of a mainstream answer really. :happy:

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura
Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines

Both Troika games and both immersive and chock full of replay value. You'll want to replay them multiple times just to take highly different characters through and seeing how it changes. VtM features the best 'second playthrough' of all time: The Malkavian.

Stop sign: "Stop."
You: "No you stop."

You're both probably loyal to the camarilla. Cammy scum! Brujah is the only way to go, just like Smilin Jack.

Makes a great third playthrough. The other clan that forces you to play the game entirely different. Mine was a former fashion model.

My first was a Toreador. Who charmed everyone and played both sides without committing for the most part. (not unlike Bo in Lost Girl) Though most just assumed he was Cammy.

My Malkavian was too busy spouting nonsense and jumping Romero and Jennette for her to even realize there were sides. But no one cared what she said because she knew how to rock a cheerleader outfit.
