10 Role Playing Games To Look Forward To In 2013

"There's a small group of people who claim that the role playing game as we know it is dying out. It's a difficult concept to swallow, but there are plenty who support such a notion. Even if you think the RPG still has plenty more to give, there's no doubt that its significance as a genre has decreased rapidly since the 32-bit generation. Though it may be a form that is currently in decline, that doesn't mean next year will be lacking in the role playing department."

Lol Final Fantasy Versus XIII is in the list, We know it's never coming out! It's been over 6 years now (in development for 7).

fermcr4205d ago

Final Fantasy Versus 13 in 2013? ... LOL.
With Final Fantasy 13: Lightning Returns already announced for 2013, who expects Final Fantasy Versus 13 for 2013?

As for the list... it's a OK list. There are still to many RPG's to be announced for 2013. Maybe Fallout 4 ?

Thanks Thorstein! I'm glad to see more and more commenter saving us the bother of clicking on these miserable websites.

Personally 2013 looks kind of meh - especially compared to 2012 or 2011. The only RPG I'm actually excited about in 2013 is Grim Dawn, which isn't even on this list.

upallnightgamer4205d ago

Duke Nukem Forever was in development hell for over a decade and still came out. Granted, it was complete shit, but still, it was finally released.

Godmars2904205d ago

I'm done giving multiple hits to sites w/top ten lists.

blue_cheese4205d ago

yeah i dont even bother anymore, if its not all on one page ill pass, not because im lazy. but just because all the info could have easily fit on one page.

Godmars2904205d ago

I could see/forgive using four: breaking it up into 3 selections per page with #1 getting its own special place, how such could be used to to generate suspense, but this 1-1 is clearly and only exploitative.

knifefight4205d ago

That's exactly why I reported this stupid crap, but it got punched through anyway. -_-

If you click the little gear and select "Info," you can see the reports on the story. Didn't matter, though. People lap up these top 10's, and Gamingbolt knows how to capitalize on half-assed speculation.

ab5olut10n4204d ago

Whatculture is the worst about this. Every article.

knifefight4204d ago

Yeah, I've made it a point to never click whatculture. That place should be called whatclass.

Yui_Suzumiya4205d ago

Dragon Age III and Final Fantasy Versus XIII are the only two I'm looking ahead to on this list.

upallnightgamer4205d ago

And Tales of Xillia. I love the Tales franchise and am still pissed that we didn't get the PS3 Vesperia.

amaguli4205d ago

I hate it when it's one game per page. Screw it, here is their list so you don't have to suffer:
1. Divinity: Original Sin
2. Ni No Kuni
3. The Elder Scrolls Online
4. Dota 2
5. Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn
6. Tales of Xillia
7. Final Fantasy Versus XIII
8. Young Justice: Legacy
9. The Dark Eye: Demonicon
10. Dragon Age 3: Inquisition

M_Prime4205d ago (Edited 4205d ago )

thanks, too bad i already went through the list lol..

only one i really really want to play is Dragon Age 3

I played 2 and now am about to start 1+Origins (i know i did it backwards)

KaBaW4205d ago

You should hit me up with which one you like better; DA1 or DA2.
I much preferred Dragon Age 1, in fact I didn't even finish DA2.
I just much preferred the play style and mechanics of DA1.

TheLyonKing4205d ago

Everyone on different page, will pass on giving this site hits.

Biggest pet hate on the Internet, well one of them.

I am looking forward to Ni No Kuni and if we are very lucky FF VS 13

Ranking the Devil May Cry Series

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Upon finally finishing Devil May Cry 5 recently - after it spent several years on my “I’ll play that soon” list - I considered giving it a fittingly-named Late Look article. However, considering that this was indeed the final piece I was missing in the DMC puzzle, I decided to instead take this opportunity to take a look back at the entirety of this genre-defining series and rank the entries. What also made this a particularly tempting notion was that while most high-profile series have developed fairly evenly over time, with a few bumps on the road, the history of Devil May Cry has, at least in my eyes, been an absolute roller coaster, with everything from total disasters to action game gold."

First to last for me...3,4,5,1,2.

VersusDMC4h ago

Me leaving it out should be telling of my thoughts on it. Better than 2 as a DMC game.

Still a good game though.

Friendlygamer5h ago

3,1,4,5 to me, never played 2. 5 gameplay is amazing but level design was really disappointing to me, just a bunch of plain arenas, the story felt like a worse written rehash of the 3rd and the charater models looked weird ( specially the ladies ). Another problem with 5 was that there was not enough content for 3 charaters so I could never really familiarize with any of them

monkey6024h ago(Edited 4h ago)

2.
Dmc.
4.
5.
1.
3.

God DMC2 was an awful game.
And in case this isn't obvious it goes worst to best

Yui_Suzumiya2h ago

1 and DmC. The rest are unimportant.

DarXyde2h ago

Order changes depending on your focus. I tend to focus on gameplay/fun factor, so...

5, 3, 1, 4, 2.

I really didn't like 4 but commend Dante's weapon diversity. The retreading of old ground was pretty unacceptable to me.

But even then... Still more enjoyable than 2 for me
