Gi - From it’s release in November 2011 to today, millions have conquered countless quests and slain many a dragon in Skyrim. Nearly perfect scores across the board made it one of the most successful releases of that year, with 7 million copies sold in its first week of release. With the addition of three DLC packs, fans around the world were thrilled to see their gameplay expanded.
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.
Most Likely will hopfully with all of the patches on the disc
There is one but not officially announced called Skyrim: Legendary Edition.
I sold off my Skyrim but it this is released on the PS4 I might consider it.
I've spent way too much time with skyrim and have gone back to finishing up some oblivion quests. But if there is more content, I will happily jump back to skyrim.
Oblivion did, as did Fallout
Skyrim: Legendary Edition rumor was flying around, which would include all the DLC. Bethesda always releases a version of a game with all the DLC included. Both Fallouts and Oblivion had versions with all DLC included.
PS. All the versions that had all the DLC, The DLC was on the disc with the game, No code or access pass
