Kind of older but 2 of my favorite turn-based strategy games on the PC that I would recommend at least taking a look at would be:
1) Heroes of Might and Magic V
2) Disciples II |

thanks a ton for the suggestions, fellas. might have to try far cry 2, if solely for the description suspicionvandit made. sounds interesting.
also, loved diablo, wasn't a fan of torchlight that much. felt too much like disneyland diablo. i dunno. eagerly awaiting d3 though..
dragon age: origins and all those hardcore PC rpg's just never really clicked with me for some reason. couldn't get into KOTOR or any of those other ones either. I am, however, contemplating mass effect 2 because i've read nothing but good things about it.
crysis, or crysis warhead? i was debating on those two.
is the "eh?" because i'm not a supreme commander fan, or because i have nfs: shift and don't like racing games? :p i got nfs by shifty means, heh. |
you're all over the place dude. If you couldn't get into kotor, you're not going to get into the Mass Effect series either. Bioware has a certain style or feel to all their rpg games, just a different place in time. As for which Crysis, go with the 1st.
If you want to try out a different style RPG, check out Borderlands and Fallout 3. |

this is probably the only criticism i could ever level at bioware, a little too similar between titles. i really hope their next big thing brings something truly different to the table. |

the latter. you said you didnt like RTS, so i didnt bother with supcom suggestions ;) it IS an incredibly pretty game tho.
how can you call yourself a "traditional" RPG fan then? :conf: |
lol, the last rts i got into was either starcraft or the original command and conquer, heh. i suppose i just really get down with the old school jrpg's? console rpg's are usually pretty fun for me, the bioware-style elder scrolls-type ones, not so much.
for example, right now i'm playing namcoXcapcom via ps2 emulation on my pc, and i'm really getting into that.

see above comment- i *DO* have borderlands, and *had* fallout 3 for a time (did you know you can buy the pc version, install it on your computer, and return it? you don't need the cd to play it lol) and while fallout 3 was quality, i just couldn't get into it. i dunno. it's not that i didn't like them, i just felt.. maybe i felt a little bit overwhelmed with everything you could do in the game. couldn't be arsed to sit on my ass and play those games all day long trying to get everything.
i figured maybe i'd like mass effect 2 just judging by the reviews- critics are raving about it. any particular reason why i should go for crysis 1 instead of crysis warhead? |

I was playing that until my hd went to a better place and took my save games with them. Its really something to see Felicia,Chun Li and KOS-MOS fighting back to back :D
With my saves from NxC gone, lately ive been playing OpenTTD and East India Company |
