This. There's several factions with very high degree of focus on necromancy (like Ashen Empire of Ermor, Rome after undead apocalypse, capable of fielding thousands or even tends of thousands of undead) and beyond that, you have a vast repertoire of various death magic spells available for all (cause everyone in the world to age at an accelerated rate, transform fellow death mages into immortal liches, rip the souls from enemy soldiers to transform them into zombies, break dead Titans free from Tartarus, raise neverending waves of skeletons in battle)

Morrowind

With spellcrafting you can summon armies of skeletons
Or ghosts/zombies/whatever else if you prefer
>>
>>254412821

skeletons, zombies, spectres, spirits and then some.
>>
>>254410920
Diablo 2 will let you walk through the game as a well built necro. No super rare items needed, just following the level up guide and you'll be walking through hell.
>>
>>254410920
Tales of Maj'Eyal. You can even turn into a Lich.
>>
>>254413857
>implying I would want anything that isn't a based skeleton
>>
>>254413857
I second this. Becoming a necromancer is fun as hell in Elder scroll games. Though more so in morrowind than oblivion or skyrim.

With so many skellies who needs a good framerate?

Divinity: Original Sin.

That game lets you be a badass anything though, really.
>>

>maximum 1 summon per character
That's a total of 4 skeletons you can have

That isn't being a necromancer

I wish they made games with deep mechanics like in dominions and dorf fortress but like, a bit more presentable
Is that really too much to ask?
>>
I never played Morrowind. Is conjuration really that good? It was a shitty gimmick in Oblivion.
>>
>>254417802
Magic is amazing in Morrowind
Pain in the ass to get started with, especially unmodded, but at high levels you're unstoppable

Oblivion and oddly enough, Skyrim if you'd like. Throw Two Worlds 2 in there if you're desperate.

It didn't, but it killed a LOT of my infinite skeletons.

GW1 had an amazing necromancer class
>>
Any of the modded Elder Scrolls games, recently made an illusion and conjuration mage and am having a blast.
Also some M&B mods let you control an army of the undead, but it makes everyone else dislike you and skelingtons are among the weakest units.
>>
>>254419224
Please repeat in proper English, but if you said what I think you did, eh. I kinda agree now that I think about it.
>>
>>254419224
You've got to have at least fifteen or something.
Then people start to think you're a threat.
>>
>>254419928

That is proper English.
>>
>>254417802
Yeah but oblivion has one of the best fucking necromancy experiences ever with one of the necro mods, can't remember its name but its by the same guy who made that 'spirit animal' mod. its fucking amazing mane.
>>
The Undeath mod for Skyrim is pretty good, I know the creator. Skyrim is a shitty game, but it's at least fun running around as a lich fucking everyone over.

>>254416784
Its the tradeoff man, niche audiences get niche, underwhelming grafix but complex shit
>>
>>254420138
>A pair of skellies does not a necromancer make.

You were saying?
>>
>>254420639
But are you a norcoromoncor.
And I THINK skyre adds necromancy, but i've not tried out that part yet myself because conjouration is fucking awful in skyim ;-;
>>
>>254420818
It is proper. It's a saying. l2English.
>>
>>254419342
Shame minionmancers in GW2 are less usefull than a shit in a water bottle.
>>
>>254419224
I looked it up, and it's a quote from Aristotle.

"For one swallow does not a summer make.".

It's not standard syntax, but it's grammatically correct. Apparently.
>>
>>254411051
Is there any difference at all between Dominions 3 and 4?
>>
>>254421275

shit in a water bottle can be boiled and destilled, then gently sprayed all over the doorway of someone you truly hate.
>>
Dwarf Fortress
With the new update you may as well be playing a fist of the north star vidya gaem in a fantasy setting
>>
>>254412259
Came in to say this, Minion Mastering in GW 1 was the shit

too bad about GW 2
>>
>>254421452
Dominions has always been an evolutionary rather than revolutionary series (for example, all 14 factions of the original are still there, now there's just 70 of them). There's few slightly controversial changes but they aren't something a newcomer would miss and aside from that Dom4 is a direct upgrade (and the one all MP games are being made for now).
>>
>>254421472
Which puts it head and shoulders above being a useless flashy bastard in GW2
>>
Are there any console games that let me play as a necromancer
>>
>>254422263
no

Overlord with the zombie minion mod.

I don't know if there really is a zombie minion mod, though.
>>
>>254410920
In DCSS you can become a pretty cool necromancer, but for some reason the undead can't use stairs. You can become a lich too I think.
>>
>>254424687
Is that dungeon crawl stone soup? that's what came up googlin the acronym
>>
>>254424687
>undead can't use stairs
Truly asinine, isn't it.

But to get around that you simply collect every single corpse on a level and then dump them on the one below. You raise the mass on the next level, kill everything and gather the corpses then dump the corpses on the next level. Rinse and repeat until an orc priests smites you.
>>
>mfw there is no game with a necromancer like D2 where you can command an army of skeletons

Fuck, the only thing that comes close is modded Skyrim.
>>
>>254424971
Yeah,
>>254425409
Or a past ghost manages to kill all your undead, and you have to try melee him with your shitty mage body.
>>
>No rts game where i can be a nercomancer

path of exile. u can have an army of zombies,army of skeletons, and spectres while summoning flaming skulls and they all go out and attack ur enemy
>>
Spell force lets you summon tons of minions and some are skellies.
>>
>>254422263
In case you aren't paying attention, elder scrolls.
>>
>>254420818
It's proper English, you AIDS spawn. Pass middle school before being a smartass.
