Hiro Protagonist II Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 What are the new RPGs on the horizon that people are looking forward to? A quick search came up with these which are the more know rpgs that most of us know about. Age of Decadence. Dragon Age: Inquisition Kingdom Come: Deliverance Legend of Grimrock 2. Pillars of Eternity. Torment: Tides of Numenera. Wasteland 2. What are the lesser known rpgs that people are looking forward to? Be good to see what others are waiting for in the future.

Leferd Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Not Mass Effect 4 or Morrowind VI.

Humanoid Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Unrest is releasing on the 23rd, so it's not really on the horizon as such, more a short stroll away. But other than that and Wasteland 2, I don't really know what else is imminent, and I've backed so many crowdfunded projects that I no longer bother keeping up with the status of each up until the time a date is announced. Out of those games listed, the only one I don't give a stuff about is Grimrock, which represents more or less the opposite of what I look for in an RPG. That said, I know very little about AoD, and DA:I's issues have had plenty of air in the relevant thread. EDIT: Oh right, CDPR's games, Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk. Fair way off though.

Leferd Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 For me, in order of preference: 1) Pillars of Eternity 2) Wasteland 2 3) Torment: Tides of Numenara 4) Unannounced Obsidian Kickstarter "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearabbit Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 In addition to the ones mentioned: - Underrail - Blackguards 2 - Witchmarsh First one is inspired by Fallout and has interesting gameplay mechanics, but is quite hardcore. Blackguards 2 still lets you play a bunch of criminals saving the world with cool tactical combat, we'll see. Witchmarsh... looks beautiful. A 2D sidescrolling RPG set in rural America of the 1920s inspired by the Cthulhu stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erez Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Kingdom Come: Deliverance looks nice, I don't know about its rpg mechanics or story though. But going FP is a step in the right direction. Never winter 2 and Dragon age origins both had decent stories but lackluster combat hindered the gaming experience, the environment due to top down control just look weird. You can freely eat and drink while playing one of those games and the kite strategy so dominant in these kind of games gets old fast. Witcher 3 is coming out soon, it will most likely be a hit. Edit : Thanks for making this thread, Kingdom Come, reminds me of my rural travels in Chile, it looks great and very promising.

forgottenlor Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Apart from Pillars I'm kinda looking forward to Sacred 3 as a Diablo-like ying to Pillars's yang. Unfortunately Sacred 3 is being made by a totally different developer and will be almost a totally different kind of game. The German magazine Gamestar previewed it in their June issue, and said things like "not even Gothic 4 was so different from its predecessor." and "Sacred 3 is the anti-thesis to Sacred" or "Advertisement should seduce you not rip you off. If someone is going to write Sacred 3 on a package, they should make an effort to include something similar to Sacred inside." or "It would have been more fair to have given this fun game a different name, but somewhere, someone at the publishers decided the game would earn more money with the name Sacred 3 on it, even if it raises false expectations." That's my free translation from German. The original Sacred developers are developing a game called Unbended, though. I'm personally most looking forward to Pillars of Eternity, Wasteland 2, Age of Decadence, and Lords of Xulima.

Galomtala Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 StarCrawlers a SciFi Dungeon Crawler from Juggernaut Games: StarCrawlers features randomly generated maps, missions, events and loot combined with deep character customization and a tactical time-unit based combat system to create an endless dungeon crawling experience. You’ll be running missions on the hulks of abandoned ships, fighting the remnants of security systems (and who knows what else…?!), all while venturing deeper and deeper in search of a big score. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeling like pre-ordering it already, but it looks like it should get released sometime soonish so maybe I can keep my credit card locked away until it becomes clear there aren't any nasty surprises. And I don't really want to get a third early access game... Edited July 3, 2014 by Slinky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
