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!".

Be kind. No bullying, harassment, racism, sexism etc. against other users.
No spam, illegal content, or NSFW content (no games with NSFW images/video).
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.

A contrarian might level up these routine earlygame complaints into the argument that the breadth of class options offered by a traditional roleplayer can be to its disadvantage. If there are 12 classes in an RPG, such a contrarian might snicker, you're going to spend 11 of every 12 hours wallowing in regret.
Fallout 1/2 system is the answer.
That's a lot of words to say you rather play a single class instead of being faced with options
I see where you are coming from, but I wouldn't go that far.
Maybe he should play adventure games with rpg elements? There are plenty of them.
Yeah, I feel like RPGs need to have a modicum of openess to enable different roleplaying styles.
I enjoy this kind of review, where the opinion is so different than mine would be, but manages to make me see the advantages of a game i might otherwise not.
I wish I cared more about Necromancy as a concept because the game sounds great, it's just never been something I've gravitated towards. Also there is something off with the color palate for me, too many bright colors.
