Middle one is the only legendary game listed.

contrarians will see this image and think it's bait

middle one is not an RPG

Only one of these will outlive the marketing hysteria and that is (ELDEN RING)

empty open world rollsslop with no rpg mechanics besides leveling up

lol, it's just like ds3 only popular because casuals feel good beating bosses and think they are pro gamers

The other 2 are actual proper good rpgs

It's easily the worst of the bunch. And rpg without a story, how droll.

N-no it has a story if you comb every item and make up a whole bunch of shit on your own to fill in the huge gaps and blanks!

Nah. Fuck off with rollslop. The combat is bland, the story is vapid and the main draw is exploration which especially in ER is "oh hey you cleared crypt #17 here is yet another spirit ash you will never use, be sure to check crypt #18 for a bow that is meaningless to your character and was a complete waste of time to get!"

BG3 is a masterpiece
E33 is extremely good *by (non-Souls) JRPG standards*
Elden Ring is a bastardization of everything that made Souls games such masterpieces, but it's still a great game.

BG3 and E33 will never have the legacy of Elden Ring. Cope with it.

Remove elden goyslop and this picture is correct

turn based games are just a tier below and they always will be im sorry

Right game is for trannies at Leddit.

What is the shit in OP? None of that is good.

I can't sit and think for 5 seconds, I MUST scroll I want more screens I MUST consume

why isn't my reel loading aaaahhhhhh

ok zoomer, thanks for your valueable insight

Art will never be as popular as pop shlock, more news at 11.

add Chadblivion, and then we can make it the "Mt Rushmore" of RPG

calling action roleslop a RPG

souls derangement syndrome

E33 yeah but BG3 already has more impact and a much more active and caring community
Fromsoft is only going down from here just looking at nightreign and they will never make a sequel to their best game (sekiro) because they know their players are mobile game tier casuals

Larian Game, Fromsoft game, indie flavor of the year game.
Shit its 2014 again

E33

RPG

i know its bait thread by schizo dragtroon but make it somewhat realistic

The duality of man.

bg3 is complete trash and why their shadowpublisher tencent dropped them before it was finished

BG3 was and still has been outsold by
Zelda ToK. It hasn't even sniffed ER sales. You're heavily overestimating it's success.

BG3 was probably outsold by a lot of things. We don't know what it actually sold because it hides behind steam numbers (bots), and almost all of its claims come from chinese sources.

Soulslop games aren't RPGs though, they're action games with RPG elements

BG3 has been outsold by two of the most commercially successful games of all time

that somehow minimizes it's massive success

You goddamn retard, take your meds.

already below Skyrim again

did China rape your anus or something

Elden bros think they are on the team :skull:

50% of Anon Babble is china funed game shilling. The other 50% is FUDposting everything else.
This is why I never come here now.

It sure does keep Larian from releasing the sales report

character creation and build customization

freedom to wander around the world and choose which path to take

actions that alter the game's story and ending

Just because it doesn't have a thousand dialogue options to choose from, doesn't mean it's not an RPG

do you even get dialogue choices in e33?

Two good games and a porn visual novel with dice roll combat, maybe in the next years a third good game will come out so the trio will be actually complete

Yes, but they make no difference to the story.
Only the last choice you make matters.

doesn't mean it's not an RPG

Yes that is literally what it means. An RPG has 3 pillars.

character and gear progression

dialogue choices that affect the story

levels that allow you to choose your approach

If your game has all 3, congratulations it's an RPG. If it doesn't it's a "-genre- with RPG elements." It really is that easy.

I guess Far Cry 3 is an RPG and Final Fantasy VI isn't then.
Your arbitrary pillars hold strong.
We should let the developers know, so they change tags and descriptions of their games.

UE5 French turn-based slop

rollslop rehash

LGBTQA++ - the game

RPG peasants live in squalor.

BG3 still has 100k daily players on Steam. I don't get it, why is it still played so much? Mods? Ok there was a patch which added some classes, but the story is still the same.

I guess Far Cry 3 is an RPG

Yes, it always was. You make tonnes of choices that matter in FC3.

The game is a legit 200 hour beast if you want to do everything in one playthrough. And then you still have lots of choices that don't have consequences until the third act. And you got mods. For anyone who really likes that turn based style, this is their Skyrim.

Multiple classes, endings, dialogues, mods, co-op and the perma death of honor mode add up.
I played the game start to finish 5 times to get tired of it.

are the other paths as fleshed out as durge?

did china tell the truth about something?

when?

garbage on the right has no place in that picture
