>RPG Codex's top 100 RPGs of all timeholy shit this is embarrassing
seems fairly reasonable
>>3958782/thread
>>3958781>>3958782Most of these aren't even RPGs
I am /vrpg/ goer I don't like the dex I'm gonna make vague hyperbolic statements about a 100 rpgs all at once to farm (you)s, this is not at all like reddit karma farming because this is BASED and not CRINGE like the dex
>>3958781You mad bro? Got a ban?
>>3958781I just looked at the top row and it's pretty good. I've played all the games in that row except for Jagged Alliance and Witcher 3, and the only game there that I didn't really enjoy is BG2. If I made my own top 10 RPGs list it would be pretty similar to the top row
>>3958782>>3958784ah yes, mount and blade: warband, definitely an RPG and infinitely better than dragon age: origins
>>3958781so post your top RPG list
>>39588061. da:o2. bg33. nwn24. kotor2powergap5. the rest
What exactly makes FO1 three times as good as FO2?
>>3958818it's older therefore bettertrust the plan, rpgcodex elders are in control
>>3958818>What exactly makes FO1 three times as good as FO2?KEK what do you mean three times, because there's three games between them??
>>3958825Just having a bit of fun with my phrasing because they're #2 and #6 but I am legitimately asking why 2 should be betterI've never seen anyone put 1 above 2 in my life
>>3958828why 1 should be better* herp derp
>>3958818Why is ultima underworld better than pink hair anime girl
>>3958781>including UNDERTALE of all things instead of actual rpg maker kinopopularity awards
>>3958844>rpg maker kinolmao
>>3958846are we pretending undertale is peak rpg maker? if not my point still stands
>>3958847>I called this dogshit dogshit, now you can't make fun of me for eating cowshit
>>3958850there's ton of less dogshit dogshit, so again, my point still stands dumb retard
>>3958855So you formally retract your post saying that there's RPGM kino? Thanks for conceding
>>3958858no, i only accept the fact that you have no taste and that i'm talking about pearls and you are the swine, BUT that aside, i accept you concession and i'm glad we both agree that undertale is far from the best rpg maker games out there, yet it appears there because it's extremely popularaka popularity awards, qed
>>3958804You're being sarcastic, but everything you said was completely correct.
>>3958868ask grok to help you with better bait
>>3958830>why 1 should be better* herp derpGo replay 1, and then immediately replay 2, and post your thoughts.
>>3958858>>3958862Yeah.. I'm just gonna take both of your concessions, thank you very much.
>>3958874I think I'll just ask your whore mother to suck my cock instead
ah yes the celebrated rpg mount and blade: warband. the thrilling roleplay potential of which copy-paste village do I plunder, and which copy-paste dialogue do I select for the game's 5 different NPC types.
>>3958804DA:O mechanics suck ass.Horrible scaling. Misguided MMO-ish inspirations.
>>3958781Seems like a good list.
>>3958919This has been debunked
>>3958785
>>3958781>popular games are popular>OP clutches pearls and faints on his chaise longue
>>3958781>Age of Decadence>A shitty NWN2 expansion pack that is 90% dialog>Planescape, the pseudo intellectuals holier-than-thou wannabe game>Div:OS Modern comedy slop >Grimoire LOL>Trails in the Sky (Cuz they love dominant lolis)>Tyranny: ultimate story fag gameI expect nothing less from a site whose spiritual leader is a kissless virgin who went bald at 30 and couldn't get laid in America so he went to Asia to fuck desperate brown whores.
>>3958781There is no final fantasy or dragon quest so this reeks of contrarianism. I don't get why people like that are so afraid of liking something even if it's popular. Its pathetic.
>>3959073They have a separate list for JRPGs (the list in the OP is also an old one, the recent list is only 70
>>3959096There is a jrpg in the picture though
>>3959103Huh, it's weird. Anyway here's their JRPG listhttps://rpgcodex.net/gallery/17685.jpg
>>3958952No idea who that is but he sounds fucking based
>>3959111>first game is the ''lol rape'' JRPGshameless posers with shit taste
>>3958818Fallout 2 has a lot more content and a few quality of life improvements but also comes with a massive dose of retardation in the writing.
>>3959111>Terranigma that highI mean, it's a damn good game, but hell no it isn't a good JRPG. It's not even a JRPG to begin with.
>>3958809There are better ways to deal with your illiteracy than seethe about not fully voice acted games, anon.
>>3958781It's really hard to make a top 100 RPG list because most RPGs are bad. It's a genre with a lot of potential that very rarely reaches that potential. There's a very good reason that most of the most beloved RPGs are the ones which hybridise with other genres and therefore dodge the pitfalls of boring gameplay and mucho texto.
>>3959111i swear this looks like a random order
>>3959111>porn game>only BoF is that shitty Dragon Quarterwhere's the real list?
>>3961159I feel like this is a huge part of why the Codex community feels so off. It consists of people who try hard to come of as elitists, but for a genre of things that's mostly more potential than it is actually great, so they're obsessed with something that largely isn't that satisfying and are looking for something that fulfills their fantasies of the amazing game that actually lets them roleplay freely and have any decision they make affect the world in truly meaningful and fully realized ways, while being frustrated that this barely happens and isn't what they really wanted when it sort of does.So they play into this identity of elitism, but it mostly feels put on because they're generally not playing things that are truly great or challenging and you can tell they're not fulfilled by most of what they do have and are chasing some ideal that will likely never exist.
>>3961200Basically you disagree with them.
>>3958781All that western slop christ
>>3961195I've never met a single person who enjoyed dragon quarter it's inherently shit as a stand alone game and extremely insulting as a boe game
>>3958809You couldn't pay me to play that gay slop zoomie. >>3958781Divinity 2, Tyranny, Kingmaker, Mass effect, and Witcher 3 should get booted off for quality. Star Control 2 while great isn't a rpg.Slot in Rogue, Brigand: Oaxaca, Prelude to Darkness, Colony ship, CDDA, and Weird West.
>>3958804>dragon age: originsDragon age is bg3 without anything good.The loot is boring, the dnd substitutes for classes and systems are boring, the fodder encounters suck, the story is typical kotor ripoff that bioware has been repeating for a decade, I can go on.>>3961200Holy reddit.>>3958809Bg 3 and nw2 in any list is embarrassing.>>3958952Pissing on grimoire exposes the weak.
>>3961200>elitism.I genuinely can't imagine how Non-elitism list would like like if that's an elitist one. It'll be skyrim on the first place, bg3 on second and that's it?..
The only good thing from the codex are the femboy user pictures.
>>3958781>all these indie rehashes of old gamesSpiritually dead uncs who are restrained by their friends before they drunk call their ex wife again
>>3958781>this threadWhy aren't more anons shitting on OP for posting stuff from that site?
>>3959869Why would I waste time reading some shitty RPG when I can read an actual novel?
>>3961329Yooo he phyre
>>3961452I imagine most people who would (rightly) care enough to bother either filtered the thread or had it autofiltered.
>>3958781>Making a thread about RPG CodexYes, this is embarassing, anon. Instead of focusing on this, why don't we try to solve the mystery of which RPG Codex users are just sockpuppet accounts for their mods. I'm pretty sure Roguey and Fedora Master are the same person. I haven't figured out Infinitron's secret identity yet.
>>3961382There's only one such user, the soundcloud rapper who works at McDonald's.>>3958818It's tonally consistent.
>>3958781When you post a top 100 list you have to specify the methodology used to generate the list. Is it fan voting? How do fans vote do they pick 100 games themselves? Is it based on what people think the best game is or is it their favorite game? Define the parameters before I even begin to form an opinion.
>>3962404>the best game is or is it their favorite game?There's not a lot of difference. Unless you're some fake hipster who picks Fallout even though you don't actually like playing it.
ITT: codexers (yes incl. me)
>>3962543Is the forum that slow that you need to come here as well?
>>3958781This place is literally just the dumping ground of RPG Codex GODS (like me) & /v/ermin who come here to get educated and/or humiliated by us.The Codex is & should be the aspiration of all of you lowly /v/ermin.
>>3962553Not her, but obviously I can post of RPG Codex from the toilet as easily as I can here, with Blue Clover TM.And on The Codex we have to be high brow adult intellectuals.
>>3962564>Not herHmm codex allows girls. A place of degeneracy, it's gotta be.
>>3962563Go outside or back to RPGCodex nigger
>>3962534>There's not a lot of difference.There is a lot of difference unless you are completely incapable of self reflection and acknowledging your biases. Many of my favorite games I wouldnt consider the best of the genre due to nostalgia and personal preference.
>>3962563Why do newfags call themselves gods all the time? All of you are so uncreative. It's like one tripfag across tens of thousands of IPs.
>>3958781didn't read.which ones had native tensei?
>>3961521>actual novel?visual novels.
>>3962967>self reflection and acknowledging your biasesThings human beings are good at, especially online nerds.It would be better to drop pretenses.
>>3958781pretty good list
>>3958781Top 100 is always pointless because you know half are classics, quarter modern 10s and then you maybe get something interesting left. Their YEARLY awards are more interesting if you ask me.>GOTY1 - Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon2 - Clair Obscur: Expedition 333 - Look Outside4 - Cyber Knights: Flashpoint5 - Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy>PC Port/Remake/Remaster1 - The Temple of Elemental Evil2 - Avernum 4: Greed and Glory3 - Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles>DLC/Expansion1 - Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - Lex Imperialis2 - Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition - Doom of Icewind Dale3 - Wandering Sword - Secrets of the Eastern Sea
>>3963159>bloodlines 2 at the very bottom https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qQHHAXt3XtsYNX8wwtlaC6fuiiNObGqSgZeK1eKLnRY/edit?gid=219627135#gid=219627135sasuga
>>3958781A lot of these are good though
Make your own top 100 if you're so great
>>3963159problem with their voting system is they replaced "tyranny of the majority" with few high ranking scores supplanting them instead. by all accounts kcd2 should be in the top 5.
>>3963194>by all accounts kcd2 should be in the top 5.Why? Cuz the devs are chuds?
>>3963242>chudno, they are being blasted by "chuds"
>>3963242Did you look at the graph?
>>3962994I for one love it when NPCs (usually kids and/or newfags) come at me with accusations like this. I only started posting on 4chan regularly 15 years ago so I keep thinking I'm just a "middle aged" 4chan poster. But statistically, I am very likely in the top 3% of oldest posters in every thread I post in, across all boards I frequent. Both in terms of my own age (only 34 years old) and in terms of how long I've been posting on 4chan.>Your next post : some cope about how you've been here since 2001[sic] ACKshu--Don't care, /v/ermin. >B-but you use [words]I remember when "based" was introduced to 4chan and the kids back then also tried to pull "if you say based then X". I have updated my lingo whenever it was appropriate to trigger as many NPCs as possible.Remember, /v/ermin. You are all just ants who exist to entertain me. This ain't a two way street. I am *God*.
>>3963257>2016+ buzzword spam + rhetoriclol
>>3963257lol kek, you sound like a drumpfer
>>3961159>because most RPGs are badEven beloved classics are often botched unfinished jank. RPGs are right behind space sims when it comes to aimless scope creep holding the whole genre back.
>>3963311Entire thing about genre enthusiasts is they're able to overlook problems if there's that SOMETHING that makes the game interesting or stand out.
>>3963257You stick out like a sore thumb dude, you have a very recognizable posting style even though you rotate through three or four “personas” that you use. I can immediately think of multiple threads you’ve had total meltdowns and embarrassed yourself in, and looks like this will be +1. You’re felted, bitch.
>>3963327Translation: I live in this librul jeetroon's head rent free because I FELTED him every single time he tried to start shit.I trigger you just by unleashing my aura, so you outed yourself as a subhuman shitskin once again. You will never be a Codexer (the most prestigious title possible in the RPG field - even if you made an account you'd be just a crossie wannabe lil cuck), you will never be White, you will never be a woman. And you want to be all three.I am the *GOD* of RPGs, an early 2000s member of the Codex (with the prestigious Arcane & [Patron] title), the oldest poster ITT, and the best & the wisest poster on /vrpg/ - and the last part is not me bragging, that's just me stating facts. It would be like bragging that I am the tallest & smartest in a sand pit full of retarded brown childs [sic].
>>3958804I'm a huge shill for the DA:O and even its expansions, but M&B: Warband is literally an RPG and a better game.
>>3963327I love that some guy lives so rent free in your head that you think you recognize him on /v/. I really hope that its actually me and that guy just caught a stray.
>>3963394>>3963409>samefagging
why do they wank Avellone so much?
>>3963257>(only 34 years old)you are not as old as old /vr/ posters. and you're probably a tourist who never lurked anyway....
>>3963413There's no better feeling on this website than being accused of samefagging when you're not. You're truly mindbroken.
>>3963257>>3963285aw it's samefagging but it came here after 2016 so it can only repeat the same handful of character combinations :c
i want to wife Lilura or Dragon Lady
>>3963442>so it can only repeat the same handful of character combinations“Jeet”“Troon”“GOD”“Felted”Like a Markov chain post generator
>>3963442>>3963760So true my fellow transes
>>3958781>Darksouls>RPGmein neger, single episode of Sesame street has more depth to it than this shit
>>3964066>complaining about DS when shit like TES, Mass Effect and KoTOR are on the list
>>3964081yeah actual RPGsDarkturd is action game that larps as an RPG
>>3964137>RPG fan when he sees the bare minimum of a functioning combat system
>>3964137thats the same bullshit "logic" trolls use to say that Dark Souls isn't a JRPG
Love how its the same games on every single list ever and people feign a guffaw as if any different list was possible
I don’t want to make a new thread and this the closest to my question.>bg 1&2>icewind dale>neverwinter nights 1&2>siege of dragonspearWhich are considered the good ones?
>>3964499Certainly not Beamdog's fanfic.
>>3964499BG 2
>>3964499>Which are considered the good ones?All of them except Dragonspear, though for different reasons.
