Forbes: " The Phantom Pain is very much an RPG in a similar vein as The Witcher 3, even though it isn’t labeled as such.
And here is where we come to the flaw."
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
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.

No just No.
I get where he's coming from but the open world in MGS 5 is very different from that of Witcher, Skyrim and RPG's. It's more like a lot of different levels seemlessly integrated within an open space.
And the graphics are better than any other open world game. Kojima should get more praise for the technical aspect of MGS 5, and the FOX engine. It's a graphical masterpiece. From textures to lighting and particle effects it floors the opposition. And to boot it all runs at 60 fps.
Why are Forbes articles still being posted? Quality, not quantity!
It's simply paragraphs and paragraphs of nitpicking without actually making a point.
Is the flaw that Forbes needs more hits?
