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)

    Divinity: Original Sin 2 is for you!

    Larian did an incredible job with that game and it’s truly a masterpiece. If you have friends, you can play online co-op and have a blast.

    And if you have a SO, make sure to try it out as well! The split screen implementation for this game is amazing, and the controller support is second to none.
    In fact, I switched from M+K to the controller just because it was so much better.

    By the time you’re done, Larian Studio’s Baldur’s Gate 3 will have been released (Aug 3rd), and it seems it’s going to 1-up every other RPG out there by a mile!

    I hope they can implement the same controller scheme and split screen system with BG3 as well, since it’s so much better for couch co-op.
