Dark Souls + God Hand = God Souls???

Dark souls, but pokemon.

"You have successfully captured the wild CHOSEN UNDEAD!  Give a nickname to CHOSEN UNDEAD?"

No the other way around, where basically everything and everyone viciously murders you.

[Karkov]

I dunno, I think my way would be more hilarious.  Or you were given the Chosen Undead as a first pokemon or something.

"Gym leaders Smough & Ornstein wish to fight!"

...  Shiny Nito, oh god.

I think it was the How Did You Last *Own* thread. We discussed a game that I really, really wish existed.

It's Sims but with Toribash controls.

Wizardry + Ultima + Might & Magic = the best RPG of all times?

[Retropunch]

Wizardry + Ultima + Might & Magic = the best RPG of all times?

yes.

yes.

No. Best RPG of all times is Dark Wizard. Well, I guess it's a Strategy RPG, but Dark Wizard already exists.

Now, if there were a "Dark Wizard, but longer, with DF levels of replay-ability and random generation" (Despite the fact that Dark Wizard has generation-spanning level of replay-ability), that would be even better.

And no, Battle for Wesnoth does not count. Battle for Wesnoth is specifically designed around a different combat style. That they're not willing to change.

Dark Wizard is much more of a strategy than an RPG. I guess if Segarr said 'best classic RPG' then that'd probably be more relevant, but Dark Wizard is kinda...niche.

not to rustle any feathers but im pretty sure... mind you, PRETTY SURE, that TES: Morrowind is the best RPG ever.

I'd be inclined to agree if it wasn't so prone to random crashes.

There are many viable contenders IMHO.
Might and Magic 6-8, Fallout 1-2 or... umm... what the hell even suikoden is you like JRPGs with over 100 possible party memberss.

The combat system is pretty trashy, magic users are either underpowered or OP as hell (depending on spells available), loading screens every time you go into buildings (which are surprisingly long even on modern computers!), stupid AI...

It is the best RPG, but not a very good game. It'd be much better with top-down view tbh.

[Retropunch]

Morrowind is probably the most 'epic' of RPG games, although what the 'best' one is just so completely, completely subjective. I mean, while M&M 6-8 are some are the most legendary RPGs of all time, I have to say that I prefer other less accomplished ones. Similarly,  I'm not a huge fan of JRPGs, so they don't really hold any weight with me, even though I respect that some of them are very accomplished and have enjoyed several (like Dark Wizard and FF).

I'd just like a futuristic version of Skyrim. Sorta like an Open World Mass Effect 2, but one with proper/deep RPG systems in. I don't get why it's not been done really - futuristic environments are tons easier to do than trying to portray a 'realistic' medieval world as you have no grass/foliage/water to render everywhere, and there are easy cop-outs in terms of technology or sparseness of people. 

I'm really excited for Cyberpunk 2077, although I imagine it might be a bit like Witcher 2 open-world, where it's sorta open but on a linear path. Still, fingers crossed!

I'm guessing Borderlands doesn't count for your wish
Hmmm... halfways between Borderlands, Skyrim, and another... Maybe Tales of Symphonia? No... you said you don't like JRPGs...
