Looking for a good Offline RPG...

[johnhagner1992]

Hey, I don't actually know this thread would fit in this category, but I'm giving it a go.

I'm looking for a 2D or 3D OFFLINE RPG that plays like an MMORPG, which means:

1) A wide variety of classes: maybe like 14~25 different classes
2) A lot of quests, but mostly side quests and no main quest
3) Items and equipments that are upgradable and rare
4) Farming (?) for money, levels, items, etc
5) Stats can be assigned to your liking
6) There is a skill tree, so it isn't predtermined (so customizable)
7) Almost endless levels... you can get stronger and stronger

I would like it a lot too if the theme of the game wasn't "Dark" per se. More "cute" and "bright" is the RPG I like. MapleStory is the game I really liked and I wonder if there is a game like that offline?

Thank you, any suggestion would be wonders to me.

There are no cute hack and slash games. Maybe Fate or Torchlight?

Did you play Din's Curse? Its not cute but got pretty much all of the above. http://store.steampowered.com/app/217290/

I played both Fate and Torchlight (1 and 2) and Hack - and Slash may not be what I'm talking about.
I want a game that is FULLY DIVERSE AND CUSTOMIZABLE (like an MMORPG).
Also, I really like 2D platformer RPGs...

But really thank you for your input

The jRPG and kRPG's seem to be mostly "cute" (think MapleStory). Only if I could understand their language... sigh

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning seems right up your alley.

You could just play World of Warcraft with single player server emulator.

 

[tindrli]

i never heard that there was a good online RPG

 

[markec]

Also you could try Sacred 2.

 

[InspectorRumpole]

Maybe something rogue-like?

Can't help you much though, imo you just described the worst game ever

 

[Onholyservicebound]

Couldn't you just play Maplestory on a private server?

'Sup drog.

An offline single player MMO? Sounds a lot like Skyrim. For better or worse...

 

[Invictus]

Kingdoms of Amalur is exactly what you are looking for it is quite entertaining and feels just like what you are looking for

Minions of Mirth was originally developed as a single-player version of a MMORPG back when that was a novel (albeit fucking stupid) concept. It took me ages to recall the name. I'm not surprised to see it went full retard MMO. Even when it was in alpha - and the game's mission statement was single-player - the forum was full of people crying for social this and social that.

You spoiled it. I was going to tell him to look for a game called The Tales of Drog Blacktooth.

who the fuck is this autobot

 

[Amn Nom]

Try Dark Souls, Darklands, The Dark Eye: Drakensang, The Dark Eye: Drakensang- River of Time, or Dark Sun.

If you like cure you could try Reccetear

Huh...Final Fantasy 12, maybe.

Uh?

1) A wide variety of classes: maybe like 14~25 different classes
2) A lot of quests, but mostly side quests and no main quest
3) Items and equipments that are upgradable and rare

Sounds good to me, as long as farming is optional and doesn't consist of killing the same monster a thousand times for the rare armor that has 1% chance of dropping.

But looking at the replies, looks like most people didn't bother reading past the second line anyway

Wrong, I stopped reading at "Offline RPG".

Sorry, bro, there are no online RPGs.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

An interesting idea. But before we go any further, we have to define: what is a RPG?

 

[FeelTheRads]

An interesting rebuttal. But before we go any further, we have to establish something: do you think this is an universal rebuttal for anything RPG related?

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Sir, why are you trying to dodge my question?

 

[FeelTheRads]

Sir, I'm not dodging as much as I am outright dismissing a plebeian line of thought.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Forgive me, but I insist that my question is adequate. If you affirm with such certainty that there is no such thing as an online RPG, then you should know what is a RPG, correct? It is only logical.
