May all the following years be as rich in cRPG goodness as this one was, fellow Obsidianites.

 

May your weapons strike true, your spells obliterate foes, your skills overcome obstacles, and may your sexy character's armor show gratuitous skin for your viewing pleasure. *

And where is IWDEE? And Blackguards?

In your post. :) Feel free to add any game that I missed.

 

I deliberately didn't add IWD:EE. Graphical upgrades don't turn a game into a new release, and the content they added is minor and sucky.

Let's not forget South Park: the Stick of Truth.

 

This was a pretty good year.

"Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."

 

Stick of Truth, Dragonfall, Wasteland 2 and Grimrock 2.

 

The rest I feel can pretty much just be flat-out ignored.

 

But still, even with "just" those four, that's still better than most of the last 10 years or more. :D

What a dreadful, horrid year. Who is going to save the industry from all the new trolls? :p

"It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."

FF XIII and XIII-2.

Dragon Age: Inquisition has been a very pleasant surprise.  Other than that, I agree with most mentioned.  I haven't tried Lords of Xulima, that might be worth picking up.  :)

Now I'm super confused, some say role-playing is headed downhill, others it's traversing up an incline. Even money Obsidian levels the playing field. 

All Stop. On Screen.

Had most fun with Valkyrie Chronicles this year.
