Neogaf's Essential Rpgs (2011 Edition)
- Page 2
This is an updated version of that thread. As I said last time, I often find myself trying to pick up quality games that I have missed over the last decade, and game review aggregates (like GameRankings, Metacritic) do a poor job of assessing role playing games, especially the lesser known titles. Word of mouth consensus from GAF can be better, but you have to do more digging and (again) most discussion tends to be about the big franchises. In light of several major rpg releases this past year (FFXIII, DQIX, New Vegas, etc), and the re-release of several classic Rpgs on places like GOG.com and PSN, I asked people to once again list up to 10 rpgs that are either essential to the genre, or amongst their favourites. The results, pooled from the lists of 202 members, are listed below.
avg. score: 13 of 98 (13%)
