Which single-player RPG is the most immersive? As in it simulates player agency really well
>>3855107Baldur’s Gate 3 is the most immersive single-player RPG, thanks to its deep player agency where your choices shape the story, characters, and world in meaningful ways, drawing from Dungeons & Dragons rules for endless replayability and freedom.

>>3855122>I can’t think of a modern CRPG that shattered my suspension of disbelief more than BG3 didMany players praise BG3 for strong immersion through reactive world and physics simulation, blending RPG with immersive sim elements for believable interactions. Some find it breaks disbelief due to bugs or scale, but patches improved stability by 2025.>I can’t think of a more railroaded modern CRPG than BG3BG3 offers high agency with branching choices affecting story and companions, less railroaded than games like Pillars of Eternity II. Critics note some linear acts, but overall freedom exceeds most modern CRPGs.>Literally the shittiest rules yet5e provides accessible structure for video game adaptation, with Larian’s tweaks like bonus actions adding fun despite balance flaws. Common complaints include rigid builds and nerfs, but it enables tactical depth over older editions. >I could barely finish it once at launch, out of sheer spite and disappointment, to see how bad it got. I waited a couple years for it to get fully patched and finished and attempted to play it again, and I got bored and dropped it after act 2High replay value from 12 classes, romance options, and evil/good paths; many log 100+ hours across runs. Length can deter full replays, but mods extend it further in 2025.

>>3855111>>3855128Posting on 4chan is supposed to be fun, if you're outsourcing even that to an LLM you've chosen to be a subhuman and should just kill yourself.

>>3855107look at the fucking catalog before you make a thread you dumb cunt >>3847151I'm sure it's the same posters there anyways
>>3855107Immerse yourself in the online space and use your player agency to find a game that fits your needs.
>>3855227the same anon made both threads. he was just salty in the other thread because we went by the widely accepted definition of immersion, and not his definition. so he made this thread and tried to clarify that he equates player agency with immersion.
>>3855392I’m inclined to be skeptical of your claim, but after multiple anons requested clarification as to his personal definition of immersion and he ignored them…
>>3855133I wonder if they use AI to generate responses that affirm what they're saying. This reads like something a robot wrote for a nigger idiot who can't even think or write for themselves.
>>3855409BG3 debates are fun and varied. What’s one thing you liked (or hated) most about it? Let’s keep it civil! No slurs needed.
>>3855409I love to ironically use AI to create responses in order to actively diminish the overall quality of this board. Most of the shit you faggots talk about isn't worth burning braincells on, anyway.
>>3855107Alpha Protocol.
>>3855198>can you give an example of what you're looking for?Something that lends itself automatically to roleplaying and story tellingFor example, I went back to Rimworld today after a couple years, but I still don't get how this game is supposed to be amazing for generating stories. Obviously it's cool how there are randomly generated events for your colonists to react to, but if you have to micromanage your colonists for your colony to run at all, then it doesn't feel that much like roleplaying, because the most element of any story is clearly the colonists themselves.I've also played games like Elona which appear to have a high degree of player reactivity on the surface, but when you look closer, most of their avenues for player input go nowhere, or tweak only very small variables like getting an extra 5 gold or recruiting a companion from the streets of a local town who's useless in real battle. In other words, most immersive RPGs only let you tweak the settings that have minimal consequences.Maybe I'm misunderstanding Rimworld or Elona, and I also haven't played Kenshi or Dwarf Fort but either way you get what I'm trying to say
My vote is Underrail.

>>3855133Don't forget the ocean of fake AI-generated YouTube videos with "proof" that India actually won World War 2 with Luke Skywalker's help upvoted by an audience that is 90% viewbots and 10% retards who believe every moment of it.
>>3855610Oof. I like Underrail a lot, but there is NOTHING less immersive than jank. Jank and constant glitches are like a 24/7 reminder that you're playing a video game designed by a guy too autistic to understand why a second coat of paint is needed on a house.
