HappyMojo Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I decided to give myself a Christmas present and bought "The Witcher" from Atari. And after I've been playing it almost non-stop (by my standards) since I got it, I must conclude that this game rocks. Sure the feel is a bit dodgy and the long loading times sometimes drive you insane, but... First of all it have mature story line, which means that it's not a game for minors *sho* *shoo*. But for an old geezer like me, it contains some of the things I've missed, like drinking contests, morale issues, a lot of twisting and turning the storyline, and other things... Secondly, the storyline isn't linear. Like in good old KOTOR you can choose to be a punk or a hero, but it isn't just the endings that changes from the choices you make. No, the entire game reacts to your decisions: The characters, the storyline and so on (a bit KOTOR2ish). This means when you've have finished the game after about 80 hours of gameplay, you can start all over and experience something quite different from what you just played. That is so cool in my book. Well, apart from playing KOTOR 1 and 2 without sound in vista (Stupid ATI card) what RPG's can you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Mass Effect. Although, you need to have an Xbox 360 to play it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mur'phon Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Vampire the masquerade: bloodlines. If you like a good story, shades of grey and a game that manages to do something good with its M rating, this is for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 The Witcher... long loading times sometimes drive you insane, but... You know the 1.2 patch came out today right? Main goal of that was to make loading times quick... Also, you might peruse the Outlander Club forum for other game discussions/recommendations.

SilentScope001 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 For the Xbox, at least, I recommend Fable and Bard's Tale. Both seem to have a humorous streak in it, altough Bard's Tale is a bit more funnier. I'd recommend Bard's Tale over Fable though. Both are Action RPGs, however, so twitch-based combat might be something you dislike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMojo Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 You know the 1.2 patch came out today right? Main goal of that was to make loading times quick... DOWNLOADING !!! Haven't noticed the outlander forum before... typical me (Well mods, sorry, and feel free to move it ) I've hear good things about Fable as well though I haven't tried it. Actually the guy at the store tried to make me buy it. hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 Please continue discussion in this thread in Outlander. I'm locking this one only because the Outlander thread is exactly the same topic, and that one started up first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
