What's your favorite game from the undeniably best RPG series of all time?

Also does anyone know whether there's a good sourceport of Ultima 5 yet? Something like xu4 would be cool (with music and everything), but I haven't found anything.

There was an attempt but it got stuck in the early stages.
http://nu5.sourceforge.net/
Obviously there's Lazarus but that's pretty much a different game.
>>
I have this condition that compels me to play every game series chronologically, form the first installment. That's why I'll never get into Ultima.

Quality is a pretty objective criteria. There aren't really any other 8 bit horror RPGs like that but there are a literal shit ton of "retro style" (non-vr) ones made on RPG Maker.

I held off on playing this series on the stupid premise that playing as a female MC was not cool, until I played and beat Super Metroid this last weekend.

Fuck me right in my misogynistic ass, this game is incredible. From infuriating platforming that forced you to git gud to a truckload of hidden rooms and items, i felt like I fell in love with video games again.

So where do I go from here? Should I play the original on the nes or jump straight into the gba games?

I'm ten years older than that but I'm glad I finally beat apathy and played a Metroid game, its my kind of game.

So I just finished this game, and I have to say, it was pretty good. It's definitely the most well-made infinity engine game in terms of combat, especially since it runs on the 3e D&D rule set.

I just have this feeling though, like even though I just beat it, I never really became good at it. I hear of people doing no-save playthroughs or playing on hard difficulty and I'm amazed. Add the D&D RNG-based combat and you're basically guaranteed to get team wiped at some point, even if just by bad luck. Stuff like:
>enemy caster uses hold person
>all front-line fighters paralsyed and kill
>casters and rogue get mobbed
I had to reload and preemptively buff my party for a lot of the fights, which feels very cheap

Also, what's with that ending? I was just getting into that fight, then Surprise! The tower mythal spell malfunctions and conveniently sucks Isair and Madae into another realm, the party escapes, the end!

What did you think of this game? What party composition did you use?

Selfbump.

I've been thinking of buying planescape: enhanced edition. I heard beamdog finally didn't fuck up one of these remasters. How will the gameplay feel after playing IWD2? I assume it will feel clunky as hell. I hear the plot is great though, which IWD2 didn't have a lot of.
>>
I thought the combat and boss battles were much improved over iwd1. I thought there was more consideration to map layouts and enemy positions in regards to strategy. However I fucking hated the puzzles in the woods, the jungle and so on. Did you beat them without a guide? They seemed ridiculously obtuse in understanding how good puzzles work in game design. There is a lot to love in 2...but overall I won't play it again unless I do co op with a friend bc of the puzzles.

My party will probably get jokes on. I don't know what is best. I just know what I used iirc.

Fighter OR barbarian
Paladin
Rogue
Wizard
Cleric
Druid
>>
>>3990206
I agree with the puzzles part. The "puzzles" sucked. There's nothing satisfying about using trial and error to progress, so I just used a guide for the woods and anything else which seemed like BS. The whole point of IWD was to make a heavily combat focused infinity engine game, so fetch quests and time wasting puzzles seemed like a terrible decision on the devs part.

That party comp is standard fare for these games. I had more or less the same, but swap druid for a monk.

Fighter
Ranger
Rogue
Sorcerer
Cleric
Monk

There's too much to collect, collecting it gets tedious because of character specific rules, and beating all 4 levels of the original DK arcade on one life is required to beat the game, which is more annoying than fun.
