Top 100 Role-Playing Games by Game Informer

  • 35


In general, this month it is the cover of the magazine Game Informer devoted to the hundred best role-playing games in the history of the industry. I'm not sure why IGN decided to make up its top, which caused such a heated discussion, but let it be.
Against the backdrop of Game Informer, you can say that IGN did a good job with the choice of games, because the guys from the first edition did not just put Fallout 2 below The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. They did not make it into a hundred at all, but they did not forget about Fallout 3, which stands above Fallout: New Vegas.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is located on the first line. The main thing do not forget that no matter who would make such tops, everything is subjective.

Interstellar

Looks like a fairly comprehensive list, though I don't necessarily agree with the order.  Thanks

The Elder Scrolls - is great RPG series. But what about Gothic/RISEN series? 

What about Sacred, Torchlight, Dungeon siege? 

I believe it should be mentioned
