Best LAN RPG's?

Hi! My boyfriend and I are looking for games to play on the same network. We both like RPG's, and I'm not too into shooters. We played Dungeon Siege a while but it got grindy. We're getting Dungeon Siege 3 for the XBox soon, but until then, what PC RPGs or any games that maybe aren't too hard-core are good for couples and co-op LAN?

Free MMOs would work, too. =)

Thanks so much! ^_^

yeah, I was thinking Diablo =/ But the graphics might bother me. We'll add it on the list anyways =)

I don't know about lan, but Neverwinter Nights 1/2 is great for co-op.

And the NWN vault has a ton of great modules which are alot better than the official campaigns, which were not good, btw. (the expansion Hordes of the Underdark for NWN1 and Mask of the Betrayer for NWN2 are pretty damn good though)

No recommendation for Titan Quest? The game is the best looking Diablo-clone and has the best gameplay out of any of them. It has a demo you 2 could check out also to see if you both enjoy it.

Yeah, I'm downloading the Titan Quest demo. I'm a bit skeptical about it, but hope it works out. Thanks =)

Steam games are okay, too. My hubby love Terraria if anyone knows games like that. =)

Titan Quest and immortal Throne. It's easy on normal, and the co op is easy with 2 people, so just try and get through normal as quickly as possible.

You could play

Baldurs Gate Neverwinter night

Sacred

Diablo 1,2

Dungeon Siege 1,2

Magicka (not a rpg but fun anyway)

Titan Quest

I just played that today after recovering a Battle.net account that had Diablo II and the LOD expansion on it. My son tried the game for the first time and enjoyed it but got sick of seeing his inventory get full and hearing the same annoying messages he hears in WoW in relation to the inventory being full. I look forward to playing this sometime together with him but is LAN play the only option now ? I saw Battle.net online options in the game menu but is this no longer available ?

Neverwinter Nights 2.

Diablo 2 is incredible when playing with a friend.

If you're worried about graphics, you can get the high resolution patch online. If you decide to get that mod, you have to patch your Diablo 2 game to only 1.12, because it won't work on 1.13. That's only if you want to play LAN.

Thanks you guys! Yeah, we played Fable when we first met and loved it, but then got bored after end-game. Thanks for telling me about the high-res patch! I didn't know. And we're planning on getting NWN too :) Thanks so much!!

Did you say boyfriend and then hubby? Damn pimpin. Make em play the same games too?

I was going to comment on this as well. Trine 1/2 has 3 player co-op if you want to make someother subtle implications.

1. Neverwinter Nights 2 (Sooooo many user made campaigns/modules to do in coop)

- Diablo2

- Scared 2? Cannot remember if that has lan or not

- Titans Quest

Of all the games recommended, might as well give Path of Exile a try (F2P top-down RPG ala Diablo). Not sure if it's played over LAN or not, never attempted to since it's beta just released last week and I've nobody to play with over LAN. The engine is very solid and I think it'd be worth giving a shot.

Hey, If you're still interested, Torchlight II might be good option for you.TheOneXIIIIII

Ya know, they prodably didn't have Torchlight 2 when this thread was made. It's two years old.
