    Incline RPG Codex's Top 50 cRPGs - Results and Reviews

    I was making a crack and assuming that the modders that fixed Gothic 3 were from Germany. I did not specify, but thx Australia.

    [Poll] Did anyone finish Divinity: Original Sin?

    I got bored about halfway through the game. Its cool that they made a top down rpg which is great. Turned based is fine if it's done well, this game did not do it well. Specifically camera angles and animations caused target problems to the point of being annoying. These issues would often screw...

    Incline RPG Codex's Top 50 cRPGs - Results and Reviews

    Great list. This list is the reason I decided to support the codex financially. I have one simple request. Get Wizardry 8 off the list. Everything you hardcore unique character development motherfuckers say may be true about this game. But it has one huge flaw. It's encounters are excrutiating...

    Avernum 2: Crystal Souls

    I like the Avernum series. I would say that the Geneforge series was more interesting and fun to me. Geneforge 2 being the best. That was my starting point with Spiderweb.

    First Annual RPG Codex Fantasy Football League(announcement)

    This is a thread to gage interest in having an RPG Codex fantasy football league. This league would start in week 3 of the NFL season, and therefore be a 14 week league. That is actually not bad because we will have 2 weeks of player stats and injuries, and a more fucking interesting draft than...

    CRPG History Abridged - The Video Series - Episode 2 Albion

    I watched it without sound and I think the concept is cool. What is missing are links to the games you are fronting, because I want to try those games.

    Wizardry 8 sucks! (LOL)

    And I am rubber and you are glue.

    Wizardry 8 sucks! (LOL)

    At what point do work arounds and fast play patches change a game? I understand games that were great but had a great deal of bugs. Then a community comes in and fixes the bugs. Wiz 8 had one community patch, to my knowledge. That was to increase the speed of the terrible encounters. Dear lord...

    Community Divinity: Original Sin 2 Codex Fundraiser

    So the codex is behind this because the consensus is DOS is an "incline" game? It's a boring game with horrible camera angles and terrible fights that require no strategy other than planning your group a certain way. I get it. The more "rpg codex" is in the game on headstones or as easter eggs...

    Wizardry 8 sucks! (LOL)

    After many years of lurking on the codex, and agreeing with the codex on many things, this one game bothered me. I think it is flawed to the point of being not fun, but the excrutiation(not sure if that is a fucking word but you understand) of the combat in that game is unbearable to regular...

    Exactly.

    Wizardry 8 sucks! (LOL)

    Arcanum should have been recieved as the greatest rpg of that decade. It was strangely panned as being bug ridden but, as far as I know, had only one bug patch. Arcanum , in my opinion, is the hardest crpg in terms of solving it's meta game puzzles. Arcanum is deep, it is top 5, it is a big...

    Wizardry 8 sucks! (LOL)

    Used wizfast based on the recomendations of this site. The game still had super long boring fights that destroyed immersion. Was able to avoid early/mid fights because I followed guides that stemmed from this site. That got me an hour into the game. The rest of the game was still shit ass boring...
