This is actually a really decent list. After seeing 1000+ best RPG lists I'm surprised. Diablo 3 and Darkest Dungeon are questionable for me (Darkest Dungeon just seems to be missing something) but this is really a great lineup of games. I love that they included the Witcher 2 as well.

I find myself going back to it often; hitting the point of farming rifts and then stopping again for months. Then come back, find the game improved with patches and new seasons, and rinse-repeat. Has to be your cup of tea, though!
pretty good list, the only one i disagree with is dragon age, i didn't think it was a very good game at all. exchange that with, say, EYE, and it would be fine.
[QUOTE=PCGamer about The Witcher 3]Through it all, much as in The Witcher 2, Geralt usually plays the role of just another character on this troubled world's stage. In the process, this tale of monster slaying and inter-dimensional raiders becomes [URL="http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/19feba1a0c84d98afebe4431bebcfddb.png"][B]strangely and poignantly relatable[/B][/URL].[/QUOTE] Son of a bitch
[QUOTE=Pops;51573720]pretty good list, the only one i disagree with is dragon age, i didn't think it was a very good game at all. exchange that with, say, EYE, and it would be fine.[/QUOTE] Are you talking about EYE Divine Cybermancy? Cuz lets be real, I loved that game but the mechanics were unbelievably sloppy to the point where it felt unfinished. Not to mention how crappy the enemy AI was. It was a really cool game, but the lore and interesting abilities were the only thing keeping me going. That said, I think EYE is incredible for how small of a team they had and I could see it being on this list but definitely not to replace DAO I kind of want to hear why exactly you thought DAO wasn't good though, just curious especially since you didn't say anything about KOTOR which was on the list and essentially has the same gameplay
Kotor is an absolute POS compared to DAO

Kotor 1 objectively blows, 2 is far superior I dont like DAO but even thats better than kotor

There are subtle nuances but for all intents and purposes DAO is medieval KOTOR.
