Hi, I can’t get enough D&D, so was wondering if someone could suggest a computer game that involves actual role-playing, like making a character with personality where interacting with the world based on that personality matters? I’ve tried some of the traditional D&D games (like DDO), and there is essentially no role-playing involved. You just build characters and run around and kill stuff. That’s the hack-and-slash version of D&D that I don’t enjoy. I’d preferably like games that aren’t super expensive; I think maybe WoW might fit my RP desires, but the $15/month subscription is too steep for me. And I don’t want a PvP game. Any suggestions? (Edit: Specifically I’m looking for PC and/or Android games)
I have a couple of suggestions that I liked a lot.
-Disco Elysium, very well written. Get the directors cut version, it’s fully dubbed. One the the best crpg I played.
-Divinity Original Sin 2, great crpg with a “DM” mode and can be played in multiplayer. Great story and lots of different paths.
-Planescape Torment, such a beautifuly written game. The enhanced edition is currently on sale for like 5$
All three have a very different vibe to them. And I think all three are a must play for fans of the genre.
Gonna tack Pillars of Eternity onto that list. It’s so fucking good. The modern Pathfinder games are similarly excellent, as well.
