I am so exicited that skyrim and witcher 2 have a release date !!! happiest gaming news this year !!! havent yet played dragon age 2 though reactions are mixed have to find out for myself!! these are my all time favourite rpg!! though i have played oblivion for close to 200 hrs !!! now i cant look at the game !!! i am sure a lot of people have different choices from the five so let me know !!

I'll stick to your choices. Out of those as a standalone game I like DA:O the most. Fallout 3: was just awesome because it nailed the atmosphere, everything except the feeling of loneliness and atmosphere is severely flawed. Oblivion: is by far the worst ARPG made, also far worse than even Fallout 3. Mass Effect 2: was awesome, but I didn't choose it because it was a sequel, it should have been Mass Effect series. The Witcher: was a great game but I just never finished it (reached the end of chapter 3) had to format the OS, never bothered again.DanielDust

why according to is oblivion so bad ? no game has me addicted for that long as oblivion !!

DAO for me, I guess because of Morrigan and Leliana.

• Mass Effect 2 with Liara, Kelly and Miranda
• Witcher with Triss and Shani :D

The ladies make a game for me if I'm gonna be spending 50+ hours on a game then ya know at least make it ummm.....interesting :P

] severly flawed ? in what way ? i am a big fallout 3 fan so elaborate !! is it the AI ? the enemies just standing around and waiting for u to walk into their "attack radius" or that headshot on humans wont work unless u sneak up and shoot from behind and or shoot really long way off ? or is it all those frequent crashes and glitches ? :?

I loved dragon age: origins, and oblivion, but i must say i prefer fallout 3. Although it is riddled with bugs and crashes alot, the wasteland experience is perfect. The feeling matches the original fallout, but you dont have the hard time in trying to work out the actual controls haha. It fits the retro style, unlike new vegas which lacks alot of it with its modern era weapons. In all i enjoyed it more than DA and oblivion, but origins was a huge load of fun for me.callan_walsh

Just The Witcher. And you could say Dragon Age Origins too. But, The Witcher is my favorite of all of recent memory. You should read the books. They're amazing. :)Elann2008

Dragon Age: Origins, on the higher difficulty levels, because it was so tactical and took alot of thought, it wasn't just another hack n' slash.lukeaxx

dragon age origins still clearly the most popular rpg !!! poovannaorcbane

Among 14 people that comments on the forum of a console oriented site??

And Btw...Mass Effect 2 is not an RPG...If the developers of Chessmaster 3000 would say about their game that is a FPS...that would not be automatically true...

Out of ur list i would choose between The Witcher & Fallout 3...

But there are so many other RPG's since 2005 that can be placed on ur list:

NWN2

Two Worlds 2

Divinity 2 DKS

Gothic 3

to name just a few...

Fallout: New Vegas > The Witcher >> Neverwinter Nights II >>> Dragon Age: Origins >>>> Mass Effect >>>>> Jade Empire >>>>>> Mass Effect 2 >>>>>>> Fallout 3 >>>>>>>> Oblivion

That's pretty much how all my modern RPGs go. I'm not really impressed by anything after the second best.

The Witcher from that lot. Mask of the Betrayer otherwise.

The only one on that list I did not throw away in disgust was The Witcher.

Mask of the Betrayer>Witcher>Mount And Blade: Warband>Risen>Eschalon 2>Risen>Eschalon 1>Fallout: New Vegas>(bad games)>Mass Effect>Fallout 3>Oblivion>Mass Effect 2>Dragon Age: Origins.

Out of the games in this poll? The Witcher.

Out of all RPGs since 2005? Mount & Blade Warband.

On that list The Witcher

I'd have put Fallout: NV over Fallout 3, and ME 1 (this would be my favorite overall) over ME 2

I'd also put Risen in front of Oblivion (as an RPG, not an overall game)

Fallout New Vegas is pretty damn awesome, but I think I like Mass Effect a little bit more. The story was just so well told.

Dragon Age: Origins. The Witcher was a great game in some aspects, but I hated parts of the game so much that I consider it to be worse than a lot of other games.

Why the Witcher wins these kinds of polls I will never understand.. Anyways, out of those choices I like Dragon Age: Origins.xsubtownerx

DA is one of the worst RPGs of the past 10 years. NWN 2, Drakensang, Oblivion, Morrowind, the Gothic series, Fallout 3, Divinity 2, Risen, The Witcher,the list goes on - blow the doors off DA.

I still don't know why people defend it. I guess hype works after all.

The main thing for me was that the combat wasn't horribly boring in Dragon Age. The Witcher's combat bored me to death.

I do agree about the combat, while the witcher still is one of my favorite RPGs the combat was not too good. Thankfully they've redone the combat for the witcher 2.

Id like to say Dragon age origins out of the list..Its a shame they fell flat on there face with the second game..They also choose not to admit what a failure the second game is..Fallout 3 is one of the best ive played in a long time also..Oblivion was just a paper weight in my collection, morrowind bye far was the better rpg,im hopeful for skyrimm hearing a lot of good things, hopefully they learned there lesson from oblivions mistakes...Some of yall will flame me but i dont care..It was a horrible mess..The witcher ive never finished some day i will, even though ill play witcher 2 just looks amazing..Never winter nights 2 was a amazing rpg like some of yall are talking about..Ill replay the game some time in the future again..

This year looks to be a good year for rpgs again..The witcher 2, dao2 i know it was horrible but still a rpg. ds3 seams like fun saw it played, torchlight 2 looks cool, perhaps diablo 3 will be out also, than you have skyrimm, Seams like a very good year for rpgs, also me3..Good thing ive upgraded hehe..

Nice poll good range of choices. It was a tough & close call between The Witcher and DA:O both different, in the end I went with DA just because it seemed to have everything I could want. I had an amazing experience with it.

From your list I'd probably go with The Witcher although I truly hated the combat. DA:O wasn't too bad either despite having some pretty big flaws. But the other games on your list, I'd be hard pressed to even call them RPGs.

None, I actually kind of disliked them all the same for various reasons. Fallout 3 = boring, easy Oblivion = boring, easy Dragon Age = entertaining, but hasn't kept my interest enough to finish it (probably the best out of the 5 you listed) ME2 = okay story, very easy - almost making it not fun to play The Witcher = decent story, horrible gameplay mechanics (specifically the combat) u never cranked up the difficult level? cause if u say u didnt find any of the games challenging then u either have lighting fast reflexes or well .... u just hate these games and ur giving these reasons I much more enjoyed Neverwinter Nights 2 over the ones you listed.neatfeatguy
