Hello my friends. Rogue is my favorite class in RPG's are I currently feel like playing this game in a video game. Specifically for high DMG backstabs. I've played alot of RPG's Elder Scrolls series, Dragon Age, Darksouls, Kingdoms Of Al e.t.c... and am specifically looking for a new game to play that does this class very well.

Playing as Atton (a Han Solo type dude) in Knights of the Old Republic 2 was fun. He was a rogue. You can stab in the back for extra damage. You can pew-pew 'em in the back for extra damage. What's not to like?

Legend of Grimrock has a rogue class. The dosey-doe fighting-and-dodging gives the attacks a rhythmn-mini-game prelude that I enjoy, plus there are some modern-combat mechanics under the retro hood . For instance, when you step back into attack range and swing, the game takes into account your added momentum for extra damage and oomph. This makes scoring backstabs extra fun. There will be some monsters that you won't be doing any sneaking up on. I won't tell you what they are as part of the fun is hearing your enemies scuttling about, catching a glimpse of one, and then getting surrounded. LOL.

NOTE: Both these games are puzzle-heavy BUT Legend of Grimrock now has user-created maps available from the get-go. If I re-did Grimrock's first playthru I'd prolly research a popular player-created map light on puzzles. In KOTOR 2 there is usually some obstacle on the map to your progress that you will need to investigate/solve.

I will vouch for Legend of Grimrock great game! Also something like Dishonored, which is a rogue type game. Granted your class is not Rogue, but its meant to be played that way.
