Cannot be defined due to the difference in tastes. You can hold some anonymous poll in your local internet echo chamber and say that your game of choice is the best one, but different people will prefer different styles of games, which invites contrarianfags. Also, I've never played a game and thought "This is the best RPG of all time." I would simply play a game, enjoy the game, make weird headcanon storylines whilst playing the game. Then I would proceed to play another game. All the while enjoying both. Even games I would drop, I'd usually enjoy for the time I spent playing them. Never once ranked them. Just enjoyed the journey. Then moved on.

That's sci-fi/post-apoc you fucking retard

>>750709694
>roleplaying game means you are a complete tabula rasa that popped into existence
why is this such a common opinion of so many retards that dont know what an RPG is? roleplaying is like being an actor, where you are just acting the character youre assigned. the closest youll get to your kind of roleplaying would be to play a homebrew campaign by yourself so you can make literally all the choices from the ground up.

sci-fi is a subset of fantasy.

>erm akshually roleplaying game is the polar opposite of what the guy who coined the term intended
reddit is that way sis
>>
>>750710823
its not the polar opposite. in morrowind you basically have no discernable backstory and you make it up yourself. the only backstory you have is that you were chosen by the emperor because of vibes and how you can fit into the plan of manufacturing you as a prophecy fulfilling person. its literally the Paul story from dune. your backstory is something you the player can make up in your head. all we know is youre a prisoner and youre now free.
>>
>>750710718
The modern idea of RPGs is that "choice" is the entire point. All choices have to be carefully measured such that you don't lose out on any content by picking them, and the game has to offer as many as possible no matter what.
This led to the point of view that anything the player can identify as having been a choice somewhere down the line not deferring to the player is an attack on them.

>>750709493
god this shit is so boring. how has nobody made a mod that greatly overhauls the combat in this walking sim?
>>
>>750711190
Because it's easier just to play a different game
>>
>>750711190
been hoping in this AI age somebody will overhaul everything so it has Dark Messiah combat or something. always wanted that in this game
>>
>>750711190
It probably doesn't help that the majority opinion of what to do with its combat is "make it pure player skill" as if Skyrim's endless cavalcade of "and this stat makes you do 5% more damage when you..." was any good.

Final fantasy 7

There is definitely a spectrum. Something like TES is fine since you make your own character and back story. Only forced into the intro (Prisoner).
Games like Witcher are not. Your entire character is written out for you and there is no lee way. On top of that you have far less agency as a player becuasr you have defined morals.
>>
>>750712860
Eh, I'd say having a more or less fixed role and only having options as to how you play that role is still an RPG so long as you do it heavily through stats and build decisions. The more action your gameplay is, the more it falls back on you being able to fully define your character to have roleplay.
