    Gold Box SSI's Gold Box Series Thread

    How the illusion and myth of Todd Howard as a good game designer came to be - Todd's Bethesda has never been a quality developer

    Bethesda is still the only company making big, open world SP CRPGs, aren't they? With no competition, Todd and his toddlers don't need to be good designers.

    Gold Box I played the NES port of Pool of Radiance for a bit; this game is terrible

    2006 was the last year I bought a new game. Oblivion can be good with the right mods. Dark Messiah of Might&Magic was a very good action RPG despite ultra cliche story and voice acting. Heroes of Might&Magic 5 was quite good, with a new and fresh skill system, albeit somewhat buggy.
