Fallout? And I mean the Black Isle fallouts.
Speaking of Black Isle, they also did Planescape and Icewind Dale.
Also: Bioware made Baldur's Gate 1 and 2; they're Canadian not European. Unless they just mean 3.
And of course, the OG RPG: D&D. Pretty sure Gygax was American.
After 20 years you need to do something new. You can't live forverer on your legacy.
Swiss person here:
What's that supposed to mean?
Are you trying to say we aren't recognized as the supreme military power in Europe anymore?
Surely you're joking, right?!
What the fuck does this mean? I mean that no studio in America did anything good in decades. Baldur's gate 2 was 2003. What good rpg was there? Mass effect was good. 2 and 3 didn't deliver to legendary grade. Bioware is dead. Blizzard is dead. Bethesda did nothing since skyrim.
Was what i was playing on
The joke is that we Swiss have a glorious warrior-past that noone remembers anymore.
I was supporting your point with a joke. That's"the fuck" that it meant
Is Neverwinter nights American? That's a good one.
NWN1 was from Bioware, NWN2 from Obsidian. Both are from the USA, but NWN2 is nearly 20 years old by now.
Bioware is from Canada, not the US.
I didn't know we were ignoring old games. It was just what came to mind, sorry.
I don't know what we are doing, but anon listed recent games ¯_(ツ)_/¯
(Although it irritates me to no end when people say "Baldurs Gate" while talking about BG3)
Still newer than the Infinity Engine games mentioned (BG1 & 2, Icewind Dale and Planescape Torment).
dont limit just to black isle fallouts lol
3 new vegas and 4 are great and even 76 is good
4 is not even remotely great it is genuinely awful 3 is fine I won't insult 3 I enjoyed it not as much as nv I loved nv but I enjoyed it it was good even but 4 is an insult
4 is a great shooter. It's a terrible RPG.
wow really cause i played 4 and it was a great time because the game was great. you must have a very high standard. never played a single game under 90 score on metacritic (but that would mean new vegas is worse than 4)
As a big fan of fallout, imo, 4 is the weakest of series. Engine was outdated, repeated time wasting quests, boring world building, the base building was their new exciting feature but it fell kinda flat. Now with 1k+ mods game can actually be a lot fun though. Also 74 didn't exist.
Not even in the same league. Barely even RPGs. New Vegas is the best of them and it still pales in comparison.
didnt know it was contest of most rpg game and not just great game
Did you not even read the meme? It's about good RPGs.
yep i read that. its why i brought up those games. they are good rpgs. did you read the meme? they are not talking about the game with the most rpg elements
