    It’s funny and sad knowing that Bethesda once were the company making weird and ambitious RPGs.

    Morrowind is one of the weirdest and most ambitious games of that era.

    Could somebody please explain fo me how either of these two aggressively cliche and generic games are in any way “ambitious, weird, and unexpected”?

      Are you serious? Do you need help understanding the definitions of ambitious, weird, and unexpected?

      Do you need a run down of all generic clones of games bioware and bethesda have released in recent times?

        They are literally sequels. 2 and 3. That removes any chance of them being unexpected now doesn’t it you dunce.

        Ambitious, sure; if your definition of ambitious is delivering a complete game at release.

        Weird? If you think these games are weird I’ll absolutely punish your eyeballs with just some stuff on steam that will leave these two games looking absolutely mainstream.

    I wish there were more new sci-fi RPGs of that quality.

    I do hear CP2077 is good now and I keep meaning to play it.

    TBH I’ll probably end up enjoying Starfield once I get around to trying it as well.

      Yes! BG3 and KC2 devs made amazing games but for some reason decided to have them take place in the most generic, boring medieval/fantasy setting.

      I want a pirate RPG, or sci-fi, heck even a hardcore Mario CRPG.

      I’ve had cyberpunk since launch and the only thing that has improved is stability. The game is still a hodgepodge of half baked RPG systems, most of which aren’t even necessary to interact with. No amount of polish can change the fact that it’s a turd underneath.

        I can tell you haven’t booted the game up recently because they completely redid the perk system and cyberware not too long ago.

        CDPR has been atoning for the sin that was their failed launch for years. In my opinion, the game is a good game now.
