I played a monk when the game came out, and killed Inferno Diablo (solo) before the first patch (ie: in his original state). It most definitely would have been impossible for a monk without the AH. …

KoA was probably the blandest, most uninteresting, and unfun RPG from a major publisher that I ever bothered to play. Finished the game, but almost had to force myself. If they were programmers or…

Same, although I gave 10X as much to this game.

I don't remember having a house in any Ultima game I ever played. Granted it's been 20 years since I played them, but if I did, it certainly wasn't…

Kinda falls into the "too good to be true" category. Waiting to find out that it's multiplayer online-only, full of pay-to-play microtransactions, and/or maybe only runs on phones.

Sounded more to me like it was Ray who made it clear that he would leave the industry, not Greg. Greg's wording left the door open: "Some of you will be curious what I’ll be doing next, and I can…

Wow this list is bad, even when you ignore the jRPG's and MMO's. Remove those, and your top 5 RPGs are:

1. Baldur's Gate 2
2. Diablo 2
3. Skyrim
4. Mass Effect
5. Fallout 3

That's pretty…

Only if you want it to come out extremely ugly. No 2D top-view/isometric game has ever had a zoom, that I recall? Pretty sure it's for that reason. Instead of zooming, they just show you more or…
