Destiny, if it had lived up to the concept. The final product is more or less just another sci-fi shooter with some magic shit thrown in.

>>340478065

Skyforge is a fantastic game, just do not under any circumstances spend any money on it. It's a paytowin paytogrind piece of shit with some of the most garbage systems design in the history of MMOs.

I was on the cusp of progression for about 8 months, and it's so fucking expensive to keep up with holy shit.

MM6 and 7 have some in the story quests and blasters you can use instead of bows, but not much else.

Endless Legend has pretty amazing story for a strategy game.

Other than the fact that Kojima said that it is, why would they go through the trouble to design such a detailed character without intent to use?

>>340478139
That's pretty tight.

Actually, I kinda want a game where someone from "our time" or with "modern" technology goes into a past fantasy world. From our perspective, they are using magic (cause they are) but from their perspective, we are using magic.

The idea of carefully deploying your modern military weapons as ace in the holes or powerups. I'd love to see something like that.

I always thought shadowrun was a really cool mesh of fantasy and sci fi. Several games now too, so there's that. It's a turn based RPG if you're into that kind of thing.
>>
Heroes of Might and Magic kinda is.

>>340480672
Shadowrun is a great setting, although I think all of the Returns games so far have fairly shit gameplay.
Dragonfall is written well enough to forget about the poor gameplay though.

It's a shame its a shitty 240p 3ds game, it was the most cyberpunk out of all the SMT games
>>
>>340475859
Might and Magic series, a good numberof Final Fantasies, Ultima series, Phantasy Star series, EYE and Skyforge are the ones I can think of offhand. You could also argue Shadowrun, Star Wars, SMT, DCUO, Omega Quintet. Atelier Dusk series also has some sci fi elements in it like a nuclear power plant and a floating island being a couple of zones.
>>
>>340484313
Holy fuck don't remind me that exists.
The concept can be taken so many interesting ways.

When they wrote that piece of filth it's like they came up against two ways the story could branch, and they chose the inferior option every single time.
Every time something starts happening, you think: "Oh this could lead THERE, I can't wait. Oh, they decided to do something stupid and boring instead."
Nothing fucking happens throughout the entire show.
The single good point about the show is the absolutely insane caricature of US foreign policy.

Fucking video games man.
Uh, Mass Effect has a lot of the 'science so advanced it appears like magic' thing going on, which somewhat fits the brief.
I wouldn't recommend Mass Effect past the first game though. For obvious reasons.

Shadowrun stuff is probably the best recommendation so far though.

That bayonet seems awfully short, and how are you supposed to use the grip on that rifle with those gauntlets and your other arm strapped to the shield.
