Computer RPG Games
Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.
Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.
Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

I haven't played a CRPG in quite a bit, but I did snag Roadwarden on the summer sale and install it. Might play it after I'm done with Road 96. Or I might play The Drifter first. But it's in the pipeline.
I also grabbed Citizen Sleeper for free on Epic so might finally dig in to that one this summer.
Roadwarden and Citizen Sleeper are both top tier games! These kind of productions are why I love video games.
Road 96 is on my backlog (unfortunately it's been their for a while).
I'm enjoying Road 96, but partly because it was just the right vibe and style of game for me at the moment. Road trip vibes, pretty mellow, not too stressful and not mechanically challenging.
I do kind of wish it was just... better. It's a really cool concept for a game and it has some great ideas, and it's occasionally funny and charming, but it's not always super well written and the voice acting could definitely be better. The recording quality isn't amazing either.
Still worth playing though if you already own it, or for a couple of bucks like in my case. It's not a huge investment time-wise either.
The concept was why I picked it up, I am big on "non standard" game design stuff, genre fusions and so on. I feel I got my money's worth with such purchases and in many cases I got hooked (finished Citizen Sleeper in two long sessions).
But Aether and Iron is definitely my next new game to play. Not trying anything else (but I do need to start it before Nivalis Nights releases later in the summer).
So many games, so little time. :)
