Gothic

Lore and world history

As a nameless prisoner dumped into a mining colony sealed by a magic barrier, you claw your way up from nobody with no quest markers, joining one of three camps and learning skills only from trainers. Its harsh, believable world full of gruff characters and its unforgiving, clunky combat made it a cult classic.

Divinity II: Ego Draconis

Dense, handcrafted world

A witty Larian action RPG where you play a Dragon Knight who fights on foot and can also transform into a dragon for aerial combat. Mind reading, quirky quests and plenty of hidden secrets make its take on Rivellon stand out.

Divine Divinity

Build variety

An early Larian action RPG with a huge, freely explorable world, countless side quests and a classless character system that lets you blend warrior, mage and thief skills as you like.

Gothic 3

Sandbox with your own goals

A vast, freely explorable Myrtana under orc rule where you side with orcs, rebels, assassins or nomads and carve your own path through the world. The game is notoriously buggy but beloved for its atmosphere and Kai Rosenkranz's sweeping score.

Exiled Kingdoms

Build variety

An old-school isometric action RPG with a large freely explorable world, factions and quests that involve choices. It focuses on character building, exploration and challenging combat.

Risen

Dense, handcrafted world

A classic Piranha Bytes RPG in the spirit of Gothic: as a nameless castaway you explore a dense, handcrafted volcanic island, join a faction and claw your way from weakling to hero. Tough combat and a believable, lived-in world are its core strengths.

Two Worlds

Loot and gear

A sprawling open-world fantasy RPG where you search for your kidnapped sister across a huge, freely explorable land, juggling rival factions and upgrading gear by stacking duplicates. Rough around the edges and infamous for its stilted dialogue, but generous with freedom.

Risen 2: Dark Waters

Melee combat with weapons or fists

Piranha Bytes' pirate RPG sends a one-eyed hero across tropical islands, joining factions and fighting sea monsters with cutlass, pistol and voodoo. Rough around the edges but full of salty humor and classic Gothic-style freedom.

Arcanum: of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

Build variety

A classic RPG from ex-Fallout developers where magic and steam-powered technology clash in a world in upheaval. Flexible character creation and many ways to solve quests make each playthrough different, whether you play a mage or a tinkerer.
