CVG- "Todd Howard, Skyrim's executive producer, says he wants to create DLC that 'makes the game better'. An ambitious claim, but Bethesda has a track record of releasing (horse armour aside) quality, substantial DLC - including Oblivion's Shivering Isles, and Fallout 3's Point Lookout. So, what will Skyrim's actually be like? Here's our wishlist."
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.
Sure they can.
Let the player go to war against or with the Thalmor.
I wouldn't mind going into another daedric prince realm.
Actually I thought it would be cool if they had a cyrodil dlc. With Oblivion gates and stuff. Of course not the whole thing, but maybe half.
I actually liked Knights of The Nine better than Shivering Isles. Guess I just preferred being the leader of something over being an errand boy (at least I remember basically being an errand boy) for Sheogorath.
This game needs some guns like ak47 and online multiplayer
more werewolf quest like the histroy an back stories of some kickass werewolf leaders kings anytihng works. also we now know Bethseda can make a character change into beasts, so why not bring in some werebears or werebores into the game. they would be fun for daedra quest an perfect to see some other daedra relams.
power to the werebeasts!!
