I decided to splash all the rpg that i came up with here to see which one is the codex favourite. The better ones are at the top and mass effect is at the bottom,in between are rpg that are not very well known and/or niche. If i missed something say so and i will try to add it. Also no jrpg and that shit....not talking about visual style.

I am split between glorious incline ELEX and the best writing for the past few years in the face of Spellforce 3. But in the end i will go for ELEX.

If you go by steam ratings, Cat's quest is the clear winner, followed by DOS2 ;)

Not played that many, but what I have played of Elex so far ( I don't own it yet, played a mates version) that got my vote.

Played his version of Nier :Automata too, and that'd be my second choice.

The most likely winner is Divinity. The worst game is probably Demons age. TB games finishing at the top as well as the bottom...

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth
ELEX, despite its flaws. I had a lot of fun with it and it made me go back to Gothic 1 and 2. Now playing Gothic 3. Then, I'll probably replay Risen. Skip Risen 2 and play Risen 3 for the first time.

Divinity 2 for me followed by Nier (which is not really an RPG but it has levels in it so whatever). Haven't played ELEX or Grimoire yet.
