Eschalon, The Witcher, Drakensang. All very good and not in any particular order.

Does Hellgate count as a non-MMO?
If so:
1. Hellgate London
2. Neverwinter Nights 2
3. Titan Quest/Dungeon Siege 2 - tied. Both excellent D2 clones, but one is better as a pure hack/slash, the other as a more immersive story-oriented action RPG.

Yeah, nothing like subjective definitions pretending to be objective

1. Witcher ee
2. NWN 2, mask of the betrayer and storm of zehir..Obviously MOTB is the best of three, but other two ain't bad either.. I love them all equally. All have their own strenghts
3.Gothic 3 cp 1.7, I'm a gothic junkie, so what can i say. I never seem to get bored playing gothic 3. Now i'm replaying it likely 6:th time…
Honorable mentioning goes to:
Kotor 2. If not taking jedi knight series into account which i hold very near to my heart, kotor 2 is the best star wars game I've played ever. The first part was really epic, but obsidian really took Star wars into whole different level in kotor 2. Just like everyone loves new hope (kotor 1), but Empire strikes back was really the film that defined Star wars (kotor 2), sadly lec wanted to release kotor 2 too early
Mass effect. I absolutely adore the universe bw has created, visuals, sounds, storytelling, wonderfull stuff. farscape meets babylon 5 and battlestar galactica. Only if it the game was more rpg and the world more open.
Bloodlines is really great too. It should be almost in my top 3, but since it doesn't fit in the 5 year timeline…

1. The Witcher
2. MoTB
3. Kotor II
The last 5 years were pretty bad, but I think that those three are instant classics.
Also, RPGWatch f'in rules, you guys have pretty much the same taste in games as I.

This probably isn't worth discussing in any depth though.

You obviously don't respect that.
That said, I agree completely that it's not worth discussing.
