Replaying Skyrim after 13 years is a reminder of the progress made in western RPGs over the last decade, but also what's been lost.
RPGs are often huge, sprawling endeavours. With limited playtime, we have to choose wisely, so here's the best western RPGs available today.
"I started playing games yesterday" the List... Meh!
How about a few RPGs that deserve some love instead?
1 - Alpha Protocol - Now on GOG
2 - else Heart.Break()
3 - Shadowrun Trilogy
4 - Wasteland 2
5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera
And for a bonus game that flew under the radar:
8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.
Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.
Pity.
A new Partner Spotlight Sale is now live on the Switch eShop, including Skyrim, lowest price ever for Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, and more.
Hmmn the ones stat come to mind, Assault on the Control Room from Halo:CE, there was quite a clever level on MW2 and the Hoth level from Star wars Battlefront.
I approve of the Battle of Hoth from Shadows of the Empire being number 1. Classic.
I'm noticing a lack of Freezeezy Peak from Banjo Kazooie.
I say Metroid Prime's Phendrana Drifts, Shadow Moses Island from both MGS1 and MGS4, mithril from Golden Sun, the snow levels from the Donkey Kong Country series and a lot more should've made it into the list! But hey, I guess I should make my own!

Yeah, Click Clock Woods during winter was also one of my all time favorite!
Ugh these websites and their stupid video articles. Not watching
