Quote: "So you get a set opening, and a set conclusion. Perhaps the end-state might vary slightly but ultimately the narrative reaches some overall conclusion. “The good guys won” for example. That’s perfectly fine. The strength then comes not in the choice or worded differently, the cause, because we already know that’s an illusion in a closed system. Instead, the strength comes in the result of the choice; the effect. The repercussions of your actions.
And that, friends, is what The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has nailed down to an absolute tee."
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!

5 - UnderRail
6 - Tyranny
7 - Torment: Tides of Numenera

8 - Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
Wealth of Geeks explores some of the best gaming romances that have stolen our hearts over the years.
I f@#kin' nailed it... first try Mutha$@#ka!
MASSIVE SPOILER ALERT!
Ithlinne's prophecy?
Ithlinne's prophecy can suck it... the Sword of Destiny has swung!
No empire to cover the world, no White Queen and no White Frost... and no White Flame either - that incestuous warmonger got his come-uppance, Caesar-style!
No one touches my girl... except for other girls.
All she ever wanted was to be a Witcher... now she can go on adventures with Uncle Letho!
I feel bad for Triss, but that little date-rapist spent two games lying through her 'teeth'... Yennefer and Geralt 4eva!
I do wish I could've saved Sile... still, her final moments were filled with the screams of burning Witch-Hunters (fire seemed appropriately ironic) - something I'm sure she appreciated.
speaking of fire, I was hoping I could feed Phillipa to Radovid (gave him her megascope crystal and everything!), but the witch still got the jump on him... at least I screwed her out of a place in Nilfgaard.
Can't win 'em all... but I guess that's a part of what makes the game so great!
My season-pass is ready for more... c'mon October!
