Elder Scrolls fans' take on what the box art of Skyrim could look like
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.
but if the game came in a treasure chest filled with magical wonders and a level 18 battle axe of destruction - 2 to undead after 11am , i'd be alot more excited about possible box covers.
. . . Just sayin :) .
Defo GOTY contender though ! :)
they take a look at how Bioware made Dragon Age Origins 2 and make Skyrim have combat like that.
I HATED Oblivion (on 360, so no mods) because the combat and animations were so bad and the the facial animations and dialogue felt unnatural. I'm not saying that the game was bad as a whole though. The amount of magic available to create is great, the huge world was immersive, and the amount of sidequests was never ending.
Just fix the animations to make everything more lifelike and I'll be back onboard.
