A rich interface in which you choose one Princess: warrior, mage or paladin (a mix of both); to explore a table top world, detailed to the absurd. During the adventure, exploring on a horse, walking, and later flying, you will be recruiting different kind of fantasy troops to fight in turn based strategy; gaining items to improve your princess. The graphics are simple but extremely detailed, making that world, a pleasure.

By Grim Dawn developers, the main differences the art, the lore, and the names of classes, and skills; but both plays very similar, including a strong mod support which makes them almost endless. If you want to play both, start with Titan Quest first, then Grim Dawn, to notice the improvement in graphics; but if you already played and loved Grim Dawn, you will enjoy Titan Quest.

A vast handmade world where each inch feels unique with its own environment, sometimes I stop on an abandoned farm only to see the beautiful sunset... I remember that was easy to start but hard to leave once I was progressing, discovering, crafting, building, is similar to Path of Exile but also is a full game that can be played offline and with mod support could be endless.

This RPG kept me thinking for months, too many ways to make your desired character. Exchangeable active skills are limited by Dexterity, Intelligence or Strength, that drives us to the amazing passives skill constellation, But probably the best is that there is no money, all is useful to trade or craft, that leaves us to the crafting system, one of the few games in which crafting is not only useful, but mandatory, making currency worth even on end-game. The only flaw it has (and that is the reason I’ve leave even when I like it a lot), is that it hasn’t offline mode, I really like to play alone sometimes, or mod my game, and it is impossible in this kind of online games.

I was confused, don’t understand why is no offline mode, it is not a MMO, you are alone or with few people that don’t know and don’t care, and leave, very similar to Path of Exile (but at least in PoE you meet more people at town!), in Diablo 3 you plays as a single player game feeling that is not necessary to be connected at all, while the game forces to it, in resume, it has all the online problems (login, lag, server down, etc), without none of its benefits (meetings, ambushes, invasions, big parties, etc), a poor experience for me.

Is Torchlight 1 in better shape, bigger and deeper, don’t be discouraged by its simplistic graphics, is a huge RPG, addictive and really challenging, it is easy to start but as you progress it demands more attention and develop from your character, and if you want to continue NG+ you really need to know what are you doing, all of this, among the complete mod support makes it literally endless.

I remember playing this game as a simple distraction but by progressing became more and more challenging. Don't be confused by its simple graphics, it's a complete RPG in all ways, and better than many others more famous. Maybe the best is its full mod support that extends its life even today at pair with Torchlight II.

Is like play a tale, a beautiful soundtrack accompanied me through the deep character creation and I've learned its mechanics almost without noticing while I play, there are plenty of text well integrated as a book with illustrations and choices based on your character's stats, the best way to narrate great amount of text I've ever played, I really feel comfortable with my choices, also the background is dynamic through dialogues. The combat system is the best in RPGs, like Dragon Age Origins with the possibility to customize your character even in its portrait, including the whole party. Sincerely the best RPG today.

I don't like to leave negative review without a strong motivation and this game deserves it... After a disappointing Dragon Age 2 I really doesn't expected much, but they showed the return of the tactical camera and also its name suggested a return to Origins. Just a delusion, is even more action oriented than Dragon Age 2. This saga has lost all personality, probably their marketing section pushed them to a more commercial game but why does they need to destroy a beloved saga? Why do not call it “Dragon Age Adventures” or some spin-off denomination, I can’t even play it because is not the game they showed, not the game I expected, sorry.

This was my first real RPG experience. Had introduced me in the story masterfully, I can feel as the protagonist and each action counts exploring the world at my will. It has the same gameplay as Pillars of Eternity (which is inspired in this gameplay). One of its most important things is the toolkit to have literally thousands of mods, I remember playing it with all my companions customized and it was awesome. King of RPGs!

A fresh air to the Action RPG world with nice simple graphics, more realistic than cartoonish, in the same style of Sacred, a big world to explore with one character alone or accompany with not more than two friends, you will level up skills choosing between magic or technology, I remember playing hours enjoying its nice art style, finding lots of gear and having fun.

Straight story, simple character development, you are the interesting character Scarlet, the only one capable to defeat Death itself because she is the daughter of Death, you will need to investigate, develop powers, craft gear, and fight against the Death itself in a beautiful fantasy Venetian environment crowded by interesting cartoonish characters. I prefer more realistic games where you can make your own character but is a fun story, not a masterpiece, a game and a story to enjoy.

This was one of my firsts 'long' adventures and one of my favorite, it feels chemistry between Kaddoc and E'lara along with funny and clever dialogues aided by a straight character progression. It has flaws but in this case there is no toolset to polish it with mods, I would prefer at least a character editor to customize my experience, it is ok to tell a story but at the end it leaves me wanting more of that lovely fantasy adventure.

It was one of my best experiences in terms of immersion when I felt alone in the devastated Wasteland, its story is one of my favorites about leaving the innocence to a merciless adult world, I love the chance to choose to play in 3rd or 1st person (I prefer 3rd), also I love the free, open and endless world to do whatever I want. But it feels mostly oriented to casuals, it can't be played without DarNified, Fallout Wanderers Edition, NMCs Texture Pack, Mart's Mutant Mod, Fellout, DC Interiors Project, Reanimated, EVE, Project Beauty, Hair packs, male and female body replacers, weapons and armor additions, homes, Pip Boy replacers, or better, build your own mods! Vanilla it deserves not more a 6, but modded is a solid 10, yes, the polishing work have done by the community but this is possible because it has one of the bests toolset out there, well thought Bethesda!

Coming from Fallout 3 I doubted that I would like something from the firsts turn based Fallout, but I love it! Its deep environment invites to believe that we really are out there in a devastated environment; the deep character creation contributes greatly to the immersion as well as the clever mature dialogues where I had that constant sensation that my choices counts, instead those from Fallout 3 where you know that no matter what choose the result of the dialogue will be answered immediately. As observation it needs a complete combat rebalance because Assault Rifles and Brawling are the best viable choices for range and melee respectively, followed by Snipers, SMG, EW. Actually are mods that solves that but it would be nice an "official" answer to have wikis and guides updated. The average feeling about this game is a foundation of ideas that could be polished, and with the toolset will be even better, meanwhile is one of the best RPG I've ever played and also have inspired me to write a novel.

This is the best RPG I've played since Sacred 2, smart, funny and challenging, with multiple ways to solve quests, combats, and brilliant character creation. The only cons that I feel are minimal like non-respawn enemies or difficulty to customize the portrait, but it also has a powerful toolset so any minor issue would be solved with mods. Well thought Larian!

After the disappointment of Sacred 3 and the great experience that was Sacred 2, I noticed that people talked fondly about Sacred 1 and I gave it a chance. First graphical impression was similar as Sacred 2 and incredibly best than Sacred 3, I couldn't stop from playing anymore that huge world full of cities, people, creatures and unlimited quests. Now is one of my favorites along with Sacred 2.

I cannot understand why they called "Sacred #" a game that clearly is not. If it is to target fans is an unworthy scam, some defenders said "is not a Sacred game but is a good casual game" but in fact is a bad casual game too, repetitive, with constant shameful jokes and even the graphics are worse than Sacred 2! But there is hope! The ex-Ascaron team is developing Unbended. Stay tuned!

Sacred 2 was my first major game and the one that I liked more. Vast, is its best description, a continuous endless world to explore without limits, towns, wilderness, fields, forests, snow, deserts, seas, inhabited by people and threats with their own behavior and characters can be customized till the absurd! I still playing it completely modded because there aren't games in which every aspect seems inexhaustible, with the Community Patch works like a charm and still being modern, having even better graphics than the rest of similar games out there, but in a real open world, with real character development, offline, lan, and mods.
