"We know Skyrim is a vast and complex game. But there are some little things that defy all logic. Could the developers have done things differently? How could they miss a small thing like this?!"
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.
I read them all and laughed zero times. I understood them.. they just aren't funny.
I chuckled at the title pic, but that was it. Come on fellow Dovahkiin, we can do better than that.
only liked the jarl one and the 30 apples one
First one was true. I went looking for the old blades guy, ended up doing most of the theives guild missions. XD

How about:
"A giant bashed me into the ground with a club, and I flew a mile into the sky. You can't explain that!"
or
"I don't always drink blood, but when I do they have to be sleeping."
Best I can come up with on the spot. Man, comedy is hard.
