2016

2. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Too many colons next year, apparently…

As usual, so many titles that I haven't played leaves me feeling a little narrow and limited in my gaming experiences. Nonetheless, it was a reasonably good year for RPGs and I look forward to many more adventures in 2016.

2015:
Pillars of Eternity
Age of Decadence
Avernum 2: Crystal Souls

2016:
Dark Souls III
Torment: Tides of Numenera
Avadon III: Warborn

EDIT: OK, disregard my post, I found what I was looking for. I was looking for it to be called a bit differently.

Black Closet and SOMA are RPGs?

Well lets see as I played a lot of RPGs this year.

2015

1. The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
2. Pillars of Eternity
3. Fallout 4

2016

1. Torment: Tides of Numenera
2. Kingdom Come: Deliverance
3. Deus Ex Mankind Divided

Oh well I suppose I could be a hipster, and only pick indie RPGs also.

2015

1. Underrail
2. Age of Decandence
3. Serpent in the Staglands

2016

1. Avadon III: Warborn
2. Battle Brothers
3. Mount and Blade II

Tough call I say as to many good games are being released.

2015:

1. The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky Second Chapter
2. The Witcher 3
3. None - at least none of similar quality

2016:

None. I don't happen to wait for any games at all. All of them could turn out to be a disappointment, so what's the point in hyping myself up. No expectations = less chance to feel let down, more chance to be pleasantly surprised.

Maybe you need more posts, like a few dozens. Usually that it the requirement at sites, as protection against people registering multiple new accounts to cheat in the polls.

Underrail is getting a lot of votes. I placed it in my top 3. The Deep Caverns has also screwed me as I went down there without the bullets and repair kits I needed. My last save was a ways back when I figured this out and used my quick save. GRRRRRR

DC has plenty of supplies (at least for gun people) and for sure has enough repair kits. The design of quests and areas is what ruined it for me. But the first 2/3 of the game is awesome enough that it still deserves to be in top 3. I hope devs go over that last 1/3 and improve it. They added that last and didn't let people in Early Access go through it first and give their feedback.

Ah, thanks for the help. I am a thorough lurker so I guess no voting. And +1 for the LoH SC vote. Boom.

Hard to vote for 2015 games as I haven't played enough of them and of the ones I've played I have only played 6 or 7 hours for most. Most of 2015 was catching up time on other games and completing them ie. XCOM with new expansion, D:OS EE, Shadowrun Dragonfall, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, Tales of Maj'Eyal (a great roguelike rpg)

Still of the ones I've played which were released 2015 the ones that left the best impression were:

Games of 2015
1: Underrail
2: Shadowrun Hong Kong (at bit wordy and combat a bit easy but its Shadowrun)
3: Chaos Reborn (more tactical, strategy but has enough rpg elements to satisfy me)

*If I could have included expanded editions I would of put D:OS EE at number 1 as I played and finished it this year. Incidentally why is HOMM 3 HD in the list given its just a graphical update?

Games of 2016
1: XCOM 2 (I know - is it an rpg? But for me it most certainly is)
2: Divinity Original Sin 2
3: Torment: Tides of Numenera
----------------------------------------
4: Baldurs Gate: Siege of Dragonspear
