Everyone who is too afraid to post their list, or too indecisive about their top 5, or can't follow simple instructions, gets killed irl. simple as. just shoot them and problem is solved.

Yeah, Twilight Princess is an Action-Adventure.
Action-Adventure is a label so generic I refuse to use it. Every adventure contains "Action" or it wouldn't be adventurous. It's the white noise of "I don't know what genre this is".

I never put as much thought in other posts as much as I do with these ones, and I swear I feel they're never just right.

1. Legends of Zelda: Twilight Princess
2. Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King
3. Baldur's Gate 3
4. Final Fantasy IX
5. Dragon Age: Origins
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is classed as an action adventure game on Wikipedia. Would you agree and want to change it? Never played it so not sure myself.
I couldn't care less about what Wikipedia says in all honesty. The largest difference between, for example, Twight Princess and Dragon Quest VIII are that the latter is turn based and has a party plus a leveling system and the other is not. If that is enough to count as "role playing" then the genre label has lost all meaning. (Any kind of reactivity or choices on the part of the player are almost completely absent, you wander across the world in a predetermined order similar to the Zelda series. There is no role to play because the protagonist is silent, generic and basically nothing but the vehicle through which you experience the story.)

Also, you already included The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past in your list. I'd bet Wikipedia lists that as an action-adventure too but I haven't checked.

I don't care either way honestly, do as you like. If you still want to use the list feel free to remove Zelda, bump everything up a spot and put Mass Effect 2 in place number 5.

As I am not a game journalist, I am self aware enough that my top 5 are probably not great games because of great stories and game mechanics, but because I personally enjoyed them so much while playing.
It's tough to come up with a list of just 5, but as a start:

• Exile III
• Ultima V
• Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game
• Morrowind
• Jagged Alliance 2

That last one (#5) is the tricky part. Might be Jagged Alliance 2, Terraria (if you count it as an RPG), or one of many others like Chrono Trigger or Dragon Age Origins or Baldur's Gate.

==================================================================================================================================================
Edit: I'm going to go with my first impulse and say Jagged Alliance 2, and for no better reason than to annoy people (although I played it a lot and enjoyed it very much).

Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.

I just wanted to double check with you before I added it. If anyone has any issues we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

Edit: For future reference, just because I've done something wrong once, doesn't mean I want to keep doing it wrong.

When you figure out #5 I'll get them added.

@1998 Same for you. If you ever find 4 more RPGs you like I'll add your list.

Immersive sim just means good rpg.
By this logic - would the Stalker games, which I've seen referred to as such, count as cRPGs?

Should all be up to date now.

Will do the next update tomorrow.

Also need to figure out whether to use the same number format for all games or not. I think I'll just go with what's on Steam/Wikipedia.

The STALKER games fail the RPG test because the player's avatar has no inherent stats or perks or anything, it's all just equipment the player chooses and the choices are obvious as there is a defined line of armor, etc...

Anyone referring to STALKER as an immersive sim is both wrong and stupid.

If I go by the amount of time played. The first 2 easiely win.

1. Morrowind modded
2. Baldurs Gate 3 modded.
3. Kingdom Come Deliverance
4. Mount and Blade Bannerlord
5. Gothic 2

But Lufia2, Chronotrigger, Fallout NV, Vampires Masquerade are also really nice, just dont have that much replayability for me.
If you can clear up the Mount and Blade series bit with one game I'll get that added.
Played Bannerlord the most. But warband was also decent.

They're less different than you imply.
For example: Jagged Alliance 2 has more complex combat and character building than many if not most JRPGs. You can also kit your character out in more different ways than most as well.

You have a better argument for Terraria, but just because there's a lack of a proper narrative other than "defeat all the world bosses, just because".

Here is my list. However, I reject your ranking system because it assumes that:
1) Each game ranking is equidistant from the one above or below it.
2) My understanding of what, say, "4" means is the same as everyone else's understanding of that number.

You should have used the $100 dollar task. viewtopic.php?p=64701-rusty-s-rpghq-ruminations#p64701

Here is my (unranked) list:


The Bard's Tale
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel
Icewind Dale 2
J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, Vol. 1
Siege of Avalon

Also, as an honorable mention:
Dragon Wars

I don't disagree but I just want something that is approachable for everyone. I'm not asking anyone to sign a contract in blood, just list your top 5 RPGs (even roughly), that you can change whenever you want, so that we can have a list of games that people can look at and go "Huh, maybe I should try that".

I did ask for suggestions here viewtopic.php?p=121397-various-role-pla ... ad#p121397 but didn't get anything so decided to do something and change it later if needed.

I'm impressed by the range of different RPGs. Some may be a little borderline but we're sitting at 81 different games across 27 users.

Welcome to our RPG ranking thread! Share your favorite video games from the RPG genre and help us create a dynamic leaderboard. Here’s how it works:

Vote for your top 5 RPGs by listing them in order of preference.

Each vote counts:

1st choice: 5 points
2nd choice: 4 points
3rd choice: 3 points
4th choice: 2 points
5th choice: 1 point

Remember, you can update your ranking at anytime. Just notify me of any changes, and I’ll keep the table up-to-date.

Any feedback to improve this is welcome.

What's the difference between Fallout and Fallout 1?
Edit: They'd be the same game, it's fixed now. Double checked for Morrowind and Baldur's Gate III, and the ones I got would be the correct numbers.

I'm making Jagged Alliance 2 my #5

Unless I think of something better.
You may as well not bother replying to my posts if it's to argue anything except concrete facts or your personal opinion. I still probably won't see it.
Reject your retarded-wing political programming and learn to think.
If you can.

That was just a typo when adding in Rand's last minute. Double checked for Morrowind and Baldur's Gate III, and the ones I got would be the correct numbers.
Baldur's Gate 2 is in there twice.
Mass Effect trilogy is in there.
The Mount and Blade series is in there.
