That's not an RPG. You don't like JRPGs?


It has serious, serious flaws as an RPG, thus why it's that far down on the list -- as do all the last five, save NWN2, which is there because the camera was so bad I barely managed to finish the game with it -- but to me, it's still more an RPG than any JRPG I know of (although Jade Empire barely is more of one). Despite the many ways in which the game hinders you in doing so, you are at least playing a character you created.

So, no, I don't like JRPGs. They're simply not my cup of tea.

SWTOR was made by Bioware Austin which has little to do with the original Bioware studio if I recall.

Hm... only Bioware makes it quite limited, still have to play BG and Neverwinter Night.

 

But okay I think it'll  be

 

DAO

DAI (might change position with DAO, not sure yet)

ME2
ME3
DA2

ME1

 

if you take others into the focus, the first three to four perhaps wouldn't change. After that, there would be Witcher 1+2 and Sims 3 mingle in :P O and Drakensang II. That's been a pretty good one actually.

From first to last 

 

Dragon Age Origins

Baldurs Gate 2

Mass Effect 2

Kotor

Dragon Age Inquisition

Neverwinter Nights

Mass Effect

Jade Empire

Baldurs Gate

Mass Effect 3

Swtor

 

And i'd just like to add that i love all these games, so ranking them is difficult. I still play all on a regular basis. Its just that DA:O and BG2 got that something special.

I won't count TOR because it's an MMO and Jade Empire because I don't remember zip about it, so between Dragon Age and Mass Effect, here goes:

 

1. ME1

2. DA:I

3. DA:O/DA:A

4. ME2

5. ME3

6. DA2

 

Tentative ranking, but I'd say that's generally how I feel.

1. Baldur's Gate 1 + TotSC

2. Mass Effect 2

3. Baldur's Gate 2 +ToB/Dragon Age Inquisition

5. Mass Effect 1

6. Dragon Age Origins + Awakening

7. Mass Effect 3

8. Knights of the Old Republic

9. Jade Empire

10. Dragon Age 2

11. Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark

12. Star Wars: The Old Republic

13. Nwn OC + Shadows of Undrentide.

 

I have enjoyed all the games on my list, the top ten are all very close. Also, NWN is only ranked last because I didn't enjoy the single-player campaign as much as I did the other games. In terms of value for my time and money, NWN was incredible. I played thousands of hours of amazing user-made content, one of my best gaming purchases ever :)

-Dragon Age Origins (the real evolution of the Baldur's Gate style with modern technology)

-Baldur's Gate series (the reference for al RPG genera)

-Neverwinter Nights (a revolutionary online RPG system)

-Nevwerwinter Nights 2 (great campaign)

-Mass Effect saga (as a new fresh ARPG franchise)

 

The biggest disappointment in my gaming life was DA2 (followed closely by Diablo 3).

 

Inquisition is a game that I would expect from another studio, but from Bioware, with such huge RPG legacy over their shoulders, (and in the DA franchise itself!), I expected a return to the canonic RPG system but they made another generic A-RPG without mod support, so: Why should I like DAI having Skyrim full of mods? I don't get what is the "distinctive signature" in this game.

I can't stress this enough: Dragon Age Inquisition is a great RPG. It's just a poor BioWare game.

No, not really. Dragon Age: Inquisition is an action RPG.

 

Dragon Age: Origins is an RPG.

Inquisition is Golden Axe with a dialogue wheel if you really want to get down to it. :P

Among the DA games I would rank it like that:
1) DA2
2) DA:O:A
3) DA:O
4) DA:I

Sadly, Inquisition had nothing in it that attracted me to its predecessors. The villain was poor, the story was poor, companions were okay, and everything was wrapped into a shiny candy paper of many colorful areas full of elfroot, but that's not what I seek for when I play a BioWare game... I hate to say it ranks that bad in my list, since I really tried to love it, but it was just flat out disappointing in my book.

I'm curious, do you think other Dragon Age games have done any better than Inquisition in that regard?

1. Knights of the Old Republic

2. Baldur's Gate 1

3. Mass Effect 1

4. SWTOR (the way it was released, all the post launch stuff goes at the end of the list with ME2)

5. Baldur's Gate 2

6. Dragon Age Origins

7. Dragon Age Inquisition (provisional place, it's too recent to truly know where it stands on the list, and so far I've only played the xbox360 version a friend gave me, I've yet to see how it plays on PC)

8. Mass Effect 3

9. Jade Empire

10. Dragon Age 2

11. Mass Effect 2

 

12. Neverwinter Nights

 

Up until the 11th they are all more all less enjoyable.

You offended Golden Axe, you hurt it badly, but since it is the best description of Inquisition I have ever seen until now, I'm actually thanking you.

(Edit: Since Inquisition is an action game I'd like to perform jumping attack, we have been doing it since Golden Axe you know...)

Oh man, talk about a tough call, here's my take on it (all with all story DLC's and most with mods):

 

1. DAO with all DLC and Awakening (by a tiny margin)

2. DAI and BG2.  Too tough to pick between those two.

3. ME3 (even with the god child making little sense) the game was powerful and dealt with the end of life as we know it scenario very successfully.  I expected Shep to die so no disappointment for me there.

4. ME2

5. NWN (particularly HoU)

6. DA2 (recycled dungeons really knocked this one down)

7. KOTOR1

8. ME1

9. BG1/ToSC  - although I adored this game and I may have more playtime on it than any of the others it was a product of its time and simply doesn't have the amount of companion interaction I have come to love from Bioware.  The open exploration was awesome though - and the game was really hard (wyverns - need I say more).

10. Jade Empire - game was okay but just didn't speak to me the way other Bioware games have.

 

If I had to include games by other companies I would probably put NWN2:MOB in my third slot - it was a great game and far exceeded the original NWN2 which would sit at #6 for me. Witcher would sit at #10, Witcher 2 would be #8.  I'm not including Bethesda games on the list, because, although I enjoy them they really are too different from Bioware games to really compare.  Stories and other characters are so much weaker but the open world/ do your own thing is so much stronger.  Depends on whether I want to save the world with a group of complex companions (Bioware) or go on an endless dungeon crawl for cool stuff while creating my own story (Bethesda).

 

My one observation across the board is that games have become much easier over the years.  I remember struggling on normal difficulty in BG1 and BG2 until I figured out the best way to optimize my party and abilities for each enemy type.  Even with Bethesda I died a lot more in Morrowind than I ever did in Skyrim.  I don't know if the change is meant to appeal to a broader audience but it is interesting.   I normally play most games on hard (after a first run on normal to learn the controls).  I've never really found a nightmare/insanity difficulty interesting until recently.  Maybe I have improved as a gamer, but I suspect it is more that overall difficulty levels are lower.

I've played SWOTOR, but I never finished it.  It wasn't that appealing to me, though I hear a lot of people love it.  Baldur's Gate I never tried.  Mass Effect is the reason I started to play games on PC.  Fell in love with it instantly.  DA and ME are both equal in quality to me.  The list provided means nothing.  As Bioware grows, so does the quality of their content.  I'm amazed with each installment how things progress.  I don't play many games these days, but as long as Bioware and a couple other companies continue their work, I'll be on board with all the other fans.  I love these guys.  God bless them.
