This is the groundwork of something truly amazing. A mix of Morrowind and Kings Field that scratches an itch I've missed for a long time. I hope this game is seen through to it's conclusion and the dev deserves and earned every cent I spent on this.

The lore, the setting, the gameplay loop are all at their fundamental level here and there's not much yet, but I would buy this game again if it meant getting one of the best open rpg/adventure games we've seen in a decade from the direction it's headed.

Like pretty much everyone here I came to this game way before the Steam release, and I'll play it some more here, too!

You ever work as an engineer or a data analyst of some kind then come home and play a game about work? This is one of those.

STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl is the best accidental RPG shooter I've ever played and is my personal favorite shooter tied with the likes of Halo Combat Evolved and Quake.

I actually vividly remember seeing this game in an old GameInformer issue(I still have it as a collector's item) and fantasizing about playing it for years and then in 2014 I got to play it for the first time and was told that it was an open world shooter with extreme difficulty and an atmosphere that could never be topped.

You'll notice that most negative reviews of this game have hours recorded such as .5 hours or 1-2 hours. But then if you look at reviews that are 30 hours, 50 hours or even more you'll notice glowing praise of this game. The reason is that it's a difficult slow burn. The Zone's madness network does have coherency to it and once you pick up on it, you'll find yourself as one of the many who come to the zone seeking riches.

At first you will die to anomalies, feral mutants, and other looters and have hardly any warning. But as time goes on, you learn who to talk to, where to find the best artifacts, where to tread the easiest so that the anomalies don't cook you alive, or you may try to ambush others and lead them directly into traps. The game is alive and unscripted and you'll feel ever intense moment that brings with the dynamic factions and AI that puts Elder Scrolls to shame.

This game is a pure labor of love made by people who live in the area. The game is brutal but it is sincere and will give you all you could need out of a game once you put in the time for it. Highly recommend.

There's a defined list of RPG games that I believe everyone should play at least once to get a well-rounded look at what the genre is truly capable of doing and are games developers should look to either mechanically or story-wise.

Those games are TES 3 Morrowind, Planescape Torment, Fallout 1, Anachronox, and of course KOTOR II.

KOTOR was my first RPG, before even Morrowind, and I figured it out far faster than Morrowind. I specifically remember in 2004 getting the second game via Gamefly when that was a thing, and playing it for months and months on Xbox and thinking it was nowhere near as interesting as the first, nor was it anywhere near like the movies were.

Lets skip forward twelve years to 2016 I decided to visit this game again and was absolutely shocked at how great the characters and writing were. I loved games like Fallout and Vampire the Masquerade and this game followed on some similar beats but the philosophy...sweet lord the philosophy and dynamic influences of choice this game has is astounding and even though it's obviously scripted based on the choice, it does convey the message of having rippling effects with all of your actions. It also featured much more customizable builds for characters so your main character didn't have to metagame too hard to do a viable blasters-only build(my favorite build is a blaster rifle commando with force powers as base utility) and the first game it was a lot harder to accomplish this. Compound that with the multiclassing being tied into the story about the reparation period of the Mandalorian Wars and there's a reason this game is my favorite RPG and video game of all time to this day.

With the Restored content mod it jumps up even more.

My time on here is irrelevant as using Fallout Fixt I wasn't able to properly load the game into Steam's overlay.

I've played through Fallout maybe 5 times so far and explored every little route I could find and of course used my imagination when I was in over my head. As someone who loves New Vegas and Fallout 3 (Yes, I liked it, too), I can say without a doubt that the original is by far my favorite of them. The atmosphere, the story, the characters, the entire sense of desolation isn't present in any of the other games. I guess that's why I loved the hell out of Dead Money and Lonesome Road; those were trying to encapsulate that same feeling.

Fallout is a little hard to get into, and if you're used to more modern titles and cant stand 2D late-90s sprites then you'll have a rough time adjusting but the payoff is so worth it.

I rank Fallout along with Morrowind, Planescape and Gothic (the first one) as the RPGs everyone should play.

*laughs in percentage chances*

King's Bounty is one of those games I always saw but never played. And in the time I've played I can safely say it's easily crawling up the ranks of some of the best strategy games I've played.

I have a background in strategy games like Civilization, X-COM, Fire Emblem etc and this game definitely scratches that itch with it's own whimsical charms of being a decently done strategy-rpg set in a fairy tale style setting. Like many reviews on here, it's an excellent alternative to Heroes of Might and Magic, and I'm looking forward to playing The Legend since I've been told it's the second best in the series.

This is one of the few MMO games I can actually deal with.

I may not have a lot of hours(I'm a casual, sorry not sorry) but I can say that the game nails the grind down without being a herculean task of soulcrushing proportions. The grind is fun, and playing with friends is even better. It's much more of a lobby-to-mission based game and the RPG elements are light but still there to let an RPG fan such as myself have fun. The game has amazing optimization as well, as I can run the game on high and get 60-70 fps and I don't have that great of a graphics card. It's also a sci-fi game, and I love that in a sea of mostly generic high fantasy online games that often come out. Give the game a shot, you may like it, you may not. But it's free and worth a shot for anyone considering.

Well met.

Decided to revise my review several years later. This game is a gem of the indie scene and remains as such. It may not be my favorite game of all time but on Steam it definitely has the most hours of any game i have on here.
