It's time to discuss GameInformer's top 100 RPGs o

>>377055935
>Morrowind > Oblivion
>Mass Effect 2 > Mass Effect
These are both true, though I wouldn't classify ME2 as an RPG.

>>377055935

Undertale is a good game you edgy fuck

>>377055935


I like the cover art at least. reminds me of the 90s.

>>377055935
What the duck happened? They use to have decent taste.

>>377055935
Morrowind IS better than oblivion

Witcher 3 is better than Bloodborne. Even the original Dark Souls is better than Bloodborne.

>>377056143
I lost faith in them when their ME3 review contained the words "I was completely satisfied by the ending"

>Undertale better than anything.
The game's fine, it's the fanbase. Though it's not really an rpg

>>377055935
>Skyrim is rank 1
Todd always win baby!

>>377055935

The whole thing was just to check off gamer cred by bowing to the loudest fanboys: ff6, skyrim, etc. You don't even need to be a super obscure game to not make the list, just unheard of by normie masses. See: Legend of Legaia, Legend of Dragoon. Not the best but certainly better than shit like skyrim and fucking destiny.

>>377056270

Current issue has the statement "get politics into my games".

They were always shills.

Patrician taste, brothers.

>>377056327
According to them, Destiny, WoW and Xcom are RPGs, so...

>47. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
How do they always manage to find a way to shoehorn these trashy games onto here? OoT, MM and BotW are not RPGs. Fuck off.

>The elder scrolls being number one
>Witcher 3 being lower than Mass Effect
>Fallout 3 being better than Fallout New Vegas

Other than that I can't see anything wrong with the list

Happy to see that Lost Odyssey wasn't ignored.

They need to fill in that list somehow
Why it needed to be 100 is beyond me.

>>377056703
I would love to see a revised list with the top 50 titles just to see what would make the cut.

I have put hundreds of hours into Skyrim like everyone else and even I don't think it deserves the top spot.

>lists the best Mass Effect as the lowest rated
>Mass Effect 3
>Zelda on a list of RPGs
>Xenogears below the original Xenosaga
>original Wizardy for the "w-we're hip!" cred
LUL

>read pastebin as past ebin
J U S T

>>377055935
Dont forget that not only was fucking WoW on there, it was top 5 or something retarded

>chrono trigger and diablo II both in the top ten

Good enough for me. Sure the Skyrim choice is retarded, but these things always have some atrocious mistakes.

>no Trails in the Sky

>Current issue has the statement "get politics into my games"

I hate it when video game journalists want to be taken seriously. Just get a new job if you want to talk about politics.

>no Fable 1

>No Wild Arms games
>No Breath of Fire games
>No Lufia games

JUST

>>377058417
Curious which BoF do you think should on the list?

>>377056703
They filled it by skipping a bunch of Obsidian games and like >>377058417 said.

This list is incompetent as fuck. I'd bet real money that whoever made this list, even if it was their entire staff, many of those games were probably not played by everyone there.

I could see if this list was launched on the day that a new Elder Scrolls was announced but that's some tin foil hat shit to believe anyone was bribed to get on this list.

It's just a case of really shit taste or pandering to popularity.

>>377055935
>top 100
How about fuck off.
These lists are always intentionally bullshit.

>>377058668
No one cares about this game. Sorry, anon.

>>377058753
Never know we've seen some shady shit in gaming.

I do give them some credit skies of Arcadia made the list.

>>377055935
This list is so all over the place. Why is Super Mario RPG so high? Like I loved the shit out of the game but Paper Mario which is way lower was objectively better than it

>>377055935

That art is disgusting.

>>377059021
I think this list lacks objective thought. There are tons of brand loyalists games journalism who let their opinion get warped by that.

Zelda, Xcom and Destiny shouldn't even be on that list because they aren't RPGs and yet there they are. I can almost promise you this list was a think tank of 1-3 people and a lot of google searches.

Fucking hell. Nostalgia is bitch for this. Sick of people who praise those games as the Pinnacle of Pokemon. They were good for their time but the sequels up to gen 5 improved on them every time. 6 and seven we're weak compared to the middle generations, but even the last two are still just better than gens one and two.
Fuck I mad
