Community for CRPG and other RPG discussions. Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.

Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.

Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".


Rules (Click to Expand):

  1. Follow the Lemmy.world Rules - https://mastodon.world/about

  2. Be kind. No bullying, harassment, racism, sexism etc. against other users.

  3. No spam, illegal content, or NSFW content (no games with NSFW images/video).

  4. Please stay on topic, cRPG adjacent games or even JRPGs are fine. Try to include topics / games that have a strong roleplaying component to them.

All favourited to be gotten ASAP. I can't wait to get into Necromancer's Tale especially. Not for the first time you've brought some hella good recommendations. Thanks!

I even forgot the pick of the bunch: Disco Elysium! If you like Planescape: Torment especially you just have to play it. It's more of a visual novel than a "game" in my opinion, but if you let it count as a game then it's the best game of all time.

Not for the first time you've brought some hella good recommendations. Thanks!

Oh what other game did I suggest? I do like to rant a lot in the weekly "What are you playing?" threads.

It might have been Disco Elysium before. I loved my time with it, I might just have to watch someone else's play through just to get to an ending. I always get too sad to finish my runs.

Watching other people play it is the only way to relive it, anyway. First time reactions to the Final Dream hit like crack.

By the way I forgot another CRPG recommendation: SKALD: Against the Black Priory. Shorter and more limited in scope than the others, but a really nice tight game with a concise story and no filler. Played it earlier this year and really loved it.

I'm really feeling smug about having tagged your username as "good taste in video games" right about now. SKALD looks like such a treat!

I keep forgetting about tags, that makes more sense for you recognising me than me being some sort of household name around here 😂

I'd subscribe to your blog, anyway. Cheers!
