The west is far FAR better at making RPGs and writing stories than Japan, especially in this day and age.

Tophat Ogre prostitute and traveling merchant. What other game can I play that?

It's Inuyasha: Secret of the Divine Jewel

>>336003792
The only western rpgs that were influential came out in the early days of pc like d&d and ultima. Once the japs got it they perfected the genre
>>
Xenogears as the best japanese RPG.
Planescape:Torment as the best western RPG.

here's a bump for you.

I can't think of any western RPGs that aren't painfully mediocre, so my choices feel lacking. I hope that's OK.
>>
>>336005859
The only jap games that were """"influential"""" came in the exact same era. Japan haven't made anything remotely influential for 15 years.

Divinity Original Sin is a better RPG than anything Japan has made in a long time.

Dead Money is probably the shittiest DLC I've ever played

>spooky abloo abloo zombies that need to be dismembered
>dark as fuck map
>darkness compounded by retarded ass poison cloud fogging up the place
>you have to avoid poison clouds, immortal holograms, traps, AND the radio bullshit
>all while navigating through confusing cramped maze like levels and backtracking to them again later
>you'll just end up running around trying to find whatever the fuck you need, stop when you hear the fucking radio, run back till the beep stops, quicksave, run forward, look for the radio, shoot it if you see it, run back or die and reload if you don't
>you can also encounter poison cloud, quicksave, run into the cloud trying to find something useful inside it or just getting past the actual cloud, run back or die and reload if it's a dead end
>sometimes there's BOTH poison cloud AND bomb radios
>stores don't have stimpacks/docbags you need to find the tapes to unlock them in the vending machines
>good luck finding them with the bullshit cloud, darkness, traps and beep beep bomb radios
>your reward is some gay ass gold that you can't even carry out of the damn place
>even if you did manage to carry all or some of it out, the DLC recommends that you play it on 20+ and at that point you're practically swimming in money already

you can't vote on any "all time" game because they will span multiple generations and suffer different physical limitations on development

you're fucking retarded, OP
>>
>>336008821
Dead money's Villa is one of the worst DLC parts, but inside the Casino is by far the best.

It's also the DLC with the best written characters and story by far.

What did you think of Old World Blues?

>>336008998
They just copied the cut EPA area from Fallout 2

If you're not stupid, you can rank a game based on how good they were for their respective era.

Evidently, you're stupid.
>>
How does Pillars of Eternity rank up against Baldur's Gate?
>>
how I voted

1. Chrono Trigger
2. VtM: Bloodline
3. Morrowind

>>336012526
The first? Pretty well, actually, although it's a hard comparison as they don't really focus on the same things.
>>
Why do so many people like Chrono Cross now?
>>
1. Chrono Trigger
2. Witcher 3
3. Pokemon Heart Gold
>>
1. Skyrim
2. Skyrim
3. Skyrim
>>
huyt
>>
1. Baldur's Gate II
2. Xenogears
3. Who cares
>>
1. Deus Ex
2. MM: World of Xeen
3. Underrail

This is a pretty hard decision, but for me it's important for a game to provide a fairly even experience throughout the game, instead of being incredibly front-loaded with content and then hitting the shitter in the second half, like in the case of BG2.
>>
>>336000794
Final Fantasy VI
Chrono Trigger
Suikoden 2
>>
Always and forever
>>
Gothic
t. central European

>>336021227
1. Heroes of Might and Magic 3
2. Heroes of Might and Magic III

Xenoblade Chronicles

Tales of Symphonia

U mad?

Played it and beaten it for the first time earlier this year. It's clunky as all hell, but so awesome. No other RPG almost made me side with the bad guy after listening to him for only a
couple of minutes.
>>
>>336000794
Star Control II
Phantasy Star IV
Xenoblade Chronicles X
>>
>>336021380
those are not proper RPG games. Those are TBS games with RPG elements.
>>
Alundra
Final Fantasy VI
Chrono Trigger
>>
>>336021771
>those
Shut up, anon. It's the best game of all time, therefore it's the best RPG of them all.

Besides, shit nigga, half of the games here could be called adventure/action/dungeon crawler games with RPG elements.
>>
>>336000794
My votes:
Chrono Trigger
Final Fantasy VI
SMT III: Nocturne
>>
What's so good about Final Fantasy 6?

I have a retarded friend that's into RPGs, but he's a millenialfag who only plays games if they're recent. He's convinced Witcher 3 is the greatest RPG of all time and he loves Deus Ex Human Revolution but won't touch the original Deus Ex. Hell he won't even play any of the Final Fantasys.

How do I save him?

Send.

>>336000794

You can't.
>>
>>336023586
Leave him be. If that's what he likes there's not much you can do. Let him enjoy his games in peace.

This probably doesn't make you feel any better, but at least you have us to discuss other games with.

>>336003842
Overrated as hell. Cool world but shit everything else and it falls apart.
