Well, it did suck that you had to be a goody two shoes to get the most out of it.
Solid game all around though.
>>342695321
You mean games retards with no fucking skill say it's the best thing ever because they think videogames should be books/movies.
RPGs are shit games with no gameplay and not fucking one RPG is even near the TOP 10 games of all time.
You can't prove me wrong.
>>342695321
Torment was pretty damn fun. Loved the party members and the big awesome spells.
Deus Ex is also 10/10.
You know what's a shitty overrated game? Bioshock. All of them.

I really liked this game. Yeah, the combat is almost non-existant. But I liked all the talking and solving puzzles through text. Yeah, it's a VN, which is not a bad thing for me.
The reason I really liked this game is because it really feels like an alien world, with it's own rules, customs, people and places. It was a really great experience. I remember it fondly. I don't remember a game that made me feel curious about it's lore like this one. And this is coming from someone who doesn't like to read
>>342696275
The gameplay might be garbage, but it's gameplay nontheless.
Also Morrowind, Baldur's gate 2 are between the best games of all time. Not that I really care
Daily reminder that combat is not the only way of gameplay
>>342697843
You keep saying that but 90% of the fucking game is combat.

>>342703186
Not the OP, I loved the game, but I never got the magic system. I recall not knowing how to use scrolls. Can you explain how the magic works in this game?
I went for an INT route, dodged almost all battles.
>>342696275
Deus Ex counts as an rpg. And that's objectively in the top 5, whether you like it or not faggot.
>>342695321
Don't even know why this game is praised by /v/, I'm sure it's alright but the setting is lame and stupid, I prefer the baldurs gate and neverwinter crpgs
>>342703451
Because it has one of the best if not the best plot and dialogue ever laid out onto a videogame. Nobody who has actually played this game really cares about the setting THAT much other than it's kind of weird and it isn't a regular DnD world.
I personally think it's better than baldurs gate or neverwinter simply because if I wanted to play a fucking game of DnD i could and it would be a million times better than baldurs gate. Planescape is seriously well written for vidya is concerned. I mean its not a classic book that /lit/ will cum in their pants for, but it's damn good.
Maybe it can be compared to Watchmen. Something insanely well written and thought out for it's medium.
>>342696275
Skyrim was a very good game and it was a RPG

You literally play it like Baldurs Gate. And Wizard route is the most fun since the old Ravela is your mentor magician.
>>342699261

??
>>342703451
The detailed description and lively well developed characters make the experience feel like watching a long movie. And it revolve around deeper philosophical questioning of human existance since the main protagonist can never die.
>>342703797
I haven't played Baldur's Gate yet. Funny, I just planned on starting Baldur's Gate 2 tomorrow. You got any tips for a beginner? I read in a few places that Fighter/Cleric is the best for a beginner.

>>342703976
You play the role of some time traveling ass hat
>>342703186
>most enjoyable combat
it's literally just a shittier Baldur's gate
what's so good about the story though?
>>342703923
I recommend playing baldur's gate 1 first, it's fairly short and worth it imo. You can port your same character over into bg2 and keep the exact same build if you want.
>>342703923
Just play whatever character you think is fun.
I played all BG and Neverwinter Games with Paladin since many characters reacted different way around pure good character, especially the comic reliefs like Mincs, Yan or Edwin.Then years later I played as Druid since kicking ass as werewolf was very satisfying
PST is great, don't project your fucking casualness onto the rest of us.
>>342704043
Probably the interactions between side characters. Recent games don't give a fuck about anyone beside the main protagonist.

never. annah is my waifu

>>342698179
Fuck you. I honestly enjoyed how much that game kicked my ass as a kid. Finally finishing it was a feat I was quite proud of.

Fun fact: Homer Simpson gives voice to Modron.
>>342704027
It's a spiritual successor, not a sequel per se.
It's in early acces now, so if you absolutely wwant to play, nothing's stopping you.
what can change the nature of a man, /v/?
i didnt like the ending of planescape desu, what happens when hejoins the eternal conflict and will never return because its eternal?
He had his whole lives ahead of him
It left me feeling empty and sad
>>342695321
Woman I actual fuck when I'm tired of my girlfriends: your mom.
>>342706613
This question still makes me think, i think that the thing that mostly does change the nature of a man is power; think about it, macbeth, that crooked cop from straya that killed some asian guy, any real tragedy is brought around by power presenting itself at the right opportunity
>>342707051
I thought the most solid answer the game provided to that question was belief. Whatever you believe can change the nature of a man can.
>>342696117
If you own a ps4, this toast is so sweetly ironic.
>>342707582
That is an interesting proposal to the answer, because without belief, we wouldnt actually have a nature. Very interesting indeed. You have changed MY belief of the line. It is always fascinating to get a new look at things from a different POV!
>>342707051
>>342708043
KNOW THIS BROKEN ONE, NOTHING CAN CHANGE THE NATURE OF A MAN.
>>342707051
>>342707582
Were you chaps paying attention? The game tells you the answer twice - first in dialogue with Ravel, then in the end with Transcendent OneAnything really, as long as it's big enough infuence on you
>>342708287
When i first played the game i thought he was just pieces of flying green spaghetti in a vaguely humanoid arrangement, looking back after i saw him actually, the transcendent one is one of the coolest character designs in my opinion, sort of reminds me of shadow fiend from doturd in a fashion
>>342708405
I picked power, i thought that was the only correct answer, didnt know that they were all correct first playthrough. Guess you learn something new everyday!
>>342708405
i've chosen regret just because it was theme of the game i guess
>>342708567
The important thing is that the question along with the answer are highly subjective, so there's no one ture answer, and none of the possible answers are marked as [Lie], so every answer is a valid point of view.
And in the end with the TO, NO says
>If there is anything I have learned in my travels across the Planes, it is that many things may change the nature of a man. Whether regret, or love, or revenge or fear - whatever you believe can change the nature of a man, can. I’ve seen belief move cities, make men stave off death, and turn an evil hag's heart half-circle. This entire Fortress has been constructed from belief. Belief damned a woman, whose heart clung to the hope that another loved her when he did not. Once, it made a man seek immortality and achieve it. And it has made a posturing spirit think it is something more than a part of me.
I think you need to regain all your past memories to get that option.
all telltale games, they're not fucking games
i want new planescape torment game...
and from what i gathered Numenera is going to be shit so... true suffering
>>342709310
Even if it's not some grand adventure like what the nameless one had I'd just be happy to explore more of Sigil again. It was a very interesting setting that was brought to life well in the game.
>>342709310
Numenera is the one that got kickstarted some years back? What's up with its development?
>>342709310
I've played a little bit of it, and the writing is definitely PST tier, but it kept laggin really bad for me. Combat is much better than PST, and from the looks of it there's gonna be much less linearity this time around. Just wait for polish it properly, and we are gonna have our fix.

I really want to enjoy the story in planescape but everything murders my ass. Is there any broken combat things I can get so I can just bypass all this difficulty?
>>342704120
>>342709864
Yeah, at character creation just put all your points into wisdom and constitution, then the rest into intelligence. Keep raising constitution as much as you can. Once you get it really high you can regenerate your health faster than anything can damage you. Not even the true shadows at the end of the game can keep you down. The wisdom and intelligence are so you get all the good dialogue choices. Plus more XP not only from the wisdom multiplier but because those dialogue choices also give more XP than the lower tier ones.
>>342698179
This so fucking much, it's a bad game without redeemable qualities
>>342696275
You cant even prove yourself right.
Because there is no such thing as a top 10 games of all time that reflects the tastes of all humans in the world.
And i bet if someone actually made such a list FF7 or WOW would be on it considering the popularity of those games.

God dammit
It was a decent game with an amazing story and 10/10 voice acting (Tony Jay, gimme dat sweet Transcendent One). Annah falling in love with TNO felt hamfisted and the game is definitely overrated, however.
>>342695321

I picked "death" because that what was happening in the game, no? Anyway, i think the Witch accept any answer you give her.
>>342709864
Git gud. You can beat the game with every pick.
What's wrong with modern games is that they dumbed down on difficulty for normies to beat the first map. The game should be engaging from beginning to finish, without getting too easy in the beginning or as you progress the character.
playing as mage was the best, and fucking cinematics for spells bruh, that was dank
>>342706613
Nothing.

You can always ask Avellone on his twitter about it, the answers he gives are gr8
>>342706841
>It left me feeling empty and sad
Wut? It felt pretty satisfactory if you ask me, considering the circumstances.The Nameless One wanted death, and he got it in the end. Going to hell to fight an eternal war full of agony is the happy ending, pretty good (and somewhat cheeky lel) writing imo.

>>342696393
>You know what's a shitty overrated game? Bioshock. All of them.
This.
You take everything from System Shock 2, but water it down to the point where what was a strength in SS2 becomes a weakness. Freeroaming, but watered down so it no longer feels like exploration but needless padding. Variety of skills, weapons and gadgets -- but they're everywhere, everything feels overpowered and it's freely available so it ends up feeling like pointless clutter.
And then finally, you slap a whole bunch of pretentious nonsense in the mix and sell it as profundity. People are amazed because there's a plot twist, but not smart enough to ask why there was a plot twist and how it actually impacts the story.
I don't want to spit on Infinite because that game was so dumb even our dogs know it. I spit on the first game because there's a real danger of it becoming a "classic" when it's nothing but overrated fucking dumb lowest common denominator piece of shit.

also it was hell to change your character to lawful good or whatever was the equivalent.
Luckily i managed that and i could use the weapon from Trias. It was op
2 and 4 are okay, but this game is utter fucking trash.

>Pationaly
Clearly Planescapes use of the English language has taught you fuck all. Despite consisting entirely of text and cutscenes, and then you have the audacity to criticise others on what games they play? Kill yourself.
>>342716519
i hated this game
>>342716252
Anon I played through the game a few weeks ago. There is a serious problem with interrupting gameplay for 30 seconds every time you want to cast an important spell.
>>342706613
Drugs.
>>342716909
maybe from todays standpoint, back when i played it that was the fucking bomb
>>342716519
It was okay for its time but it has not aged well at all. I liked the rest though, especially 4.
>>342716149
And "shitty" doesn't mean bad?

RPG's are fun if you're ahead of grinding. Virtually improving yourself is just fooling yourself. Max that stat points to 11 and you'll see.

>>342716042
I really tried to get through the first BioShock after all the praise it receives, but couldn't get through it. Don't understand why it's considered some masterpiece when it's an average shooter at most with some mild RPG elements.
>>342709310
I really just want a fantasy game that blows me the fuck away like Ps:T had done. I never played any ttrpgs before and Baldurs Gate was my only reference, system and setting-wise. But I was a huge fan of Zelazny and Niven at the time and had just read Moore's Swamp Thing. I finished the game in 4 days, missed a lot of schoolwork and sleep.
The game just plays on the strengths of an interactive medium so well. Its combat was pretty uneventful, and repetitive, but it was saved by the huge emotional involvement you had when facing characters like Ravel or Trias. I never wanted to find out more about a character than Nameless One. The entire setting's history and characters, beliefs and fears, you were somehow part of it all. And it never feels preachy or on the nose. The game made me feel bad for lying to people, it made me feel like an asshole for things that weren't even my fault (Dak'kon's story, for example). I never had the same level of emotional investment and immersion in a game. I hated the Player's maze so much and died like an idiot all the time in random fights and facepalmed so hard when I saw all those shadows waiting for me in the fortress. It's 'ultimate ending' is one of the most bittersweet moments I ever saw in any media.
Somehow, despite everything, the game delivered it's enormous promise(premise?). I just want to feel that way again, /v/. I don't want a new Planescape:Torment. We already have one of those. I want a game that I can point my non-gamer fiends to and say "play this, then you'll understand".
