this is obviously some sort of bait thread, give it up

>all time
>doesn't include cyberpunk 2077
???

whats bait about it?

I only read the blurb about Torment before I closed the page.
They talk about Torment being a "playable novel," but in reality Torment is one of the most standard amateur level novels ever written, bogged down in piss poor narration, exposition, and constantly breaking the cardinal rule of diction (show, don't tell). It's actually quite a feat that people think it's good, but it's not surprising: most gamers don't read.

It's a great list of games that's for sure. Haven't played them all though so I can't speak to how good of an order they're in but I love seeing Age of Decadence and Underrail so high.

OP you left out the PC part of the list.
Top 100 PC RPGs.

Which would explain why it's so western games dominated. Also rance.

Codex is the only vidya forum with good opinions

>Undertale

there have been multiple threads throughout the month promoting the same opinions your shitty site parades around as "OBJECTIVELY TRUE AND ANYONE WHO THINKS OTHERWISE IS A BABBY AND A HERETIC"
kindly fuck off

The list only gets good when you get to number 7

Top100 is too big of a list.

Top20 at least would be more interesting.

Unironically this

I disagree with some,but that's explected. An interesting read nonetheless.

Too many games from early 90s that appear on the list only because of nostalgia.

And then shit like Tyranny gets in. Because the community is so small that 7 votes on a 1.7 average is enough to put it on the list.

Tyranny is a good pc rpg

Tyranny is great, don't know what you're talking about.

>Grimoire at #22
Absolutely 'Thalpilled.

>As with the previous one, the rankings after the Top 20-30 games are not as important, it should really seen as a list of interesting games to try out. Few people will enjoy niche titles like Elminage Gothic or Tales of Maj'Eyal, but those that do will absolutely love them.
They realize that anything past the top 30 is statistically irrelevant

When your top videogame is a choose your own adventure dogshit novel, you've fucked up.

This. Planescape is barely a game.
>"Want to know what the best motorcycle of all time is?"
>Sure.
>*Pulls up the tarp*
>Wait a minute! That's a fucking scooter!
>"Of course it is, but it's sorta' a motorcycle too, and they sell it at the motorcycle store."
>What the fuck? This is barely a motorcycle!
>"What's the problem? It's got 2 wheels, a motor, everything a motorcycle has!"
>It doesn't even have a clutch or shifter you idiot!

I thought the codex wanted to be takes seriously.
Did they give upon that?

Why the fuck is that even on the list? It barley has any elements of rpg.
I have a feeling that the few undertale fans included them in this list because they worship this overrated trite.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2

>Intricate anything.

Please, user, I can only laugh so much.

That's Yea Forums for you. Everything here is reduced to "X is bad, Y is good".

>sengoku rance
kek, but i must admit rance 7 is a pretty good game

>typical right wing brainlets

>hasn't filtered yikes
what are you doing

>all time
>doesn't include future titles not even announced yet

it says of all time, not just past time

>and constantly breaking the cardinal rule of diction (show, don't tell)
That's because the game way ahead of its time.

It did excellent, way above and beyond what has come since, with what it got.

>it should really seen as a list of interesting games to try out. Few people will enjoy niche titles like Elminage Gothic or Tales of Maj'Eyal, but those that do will absolutely love them.

This looks like a bunch of Yea Forumstards and redditors got together and compiled a list of the most overrated rpgs ever that get shilled to death.
It also reeks of Obsidian/Black Isle fanboyism along with OLD = GOOD stupidity.
