The term RPG stands for Role-Playing Game which is one of the oldest genres in existence. There have been countless RPG titles over the years, but certain games have stood out because they’re excellent games. They offer what other titles can’t which is why they’re games everyone should play at least once. In that regard, here are a few such titles:
KOTOR
With a title like Knights of the Old Republic, you know you’ll be thrust into the Star Wars universe, but you’ll get to create a character first. You’ll get to go from planet to planet and complete all sorts of missions across the universe. You can also go to the nearest cantina and play some Pazaak too.
Pazaak is like the future version of black jack also known as 21, as you’ll need to beat the opponent by having a card value of 20 or near 20. Nowadays, people enjoy blackjack, poker, roulette, slots, and other games online at online casino sites. The main thing about them is to enjoy them responsibly.
In this Old Republic, you’ll face the Sith and lots of other enemies. But you’ll have some companions that will help you out along the way. You will keep them till the end, or you’ll lose them depending on your actions. In the end, you’ll either be a Sith or a Jedi as you sway toward the light or the dark side of the force.
Assassin’s Creed II
The first game was pretty good, but this is the second one and it’s a sequel worthy of your time. You’ll get to meet a young and brash Ezio Auditore who can’t seem to stay out of trouble. But a tragedy befalls him as his father and brothers are framed for treason. He then dons the robe of the Assassin and avenges them. On his journey away from town, he meets his uncle who trains him in the ways of the Assassins and exposes him to the bigger picture.
You’ll meet historical figures in this game as it’s set in Italy during the Renaissance. In Assassin’s Creed II you’ll shake hands with Lorenzo Medici and Leonardo Da Vinci who will be your ally and friend throughout the game. The mechanic that makes this game amazing is the one that lets you climb any building you set your eyes on.
Observer
This game doesn’t come with a first-person perspective, but it’s still an RPG title. You’ll take the role of a detective after the last war of humanity. When you’re on patrol, you’ll get a call from your son, you’ll start looking for him in an apartment complex. The thing about this game is that it’s set in the future and people are mostly cyborgs. As a detective in this era, you have a device that lets you get into the minds of other people and experience their lives, even after they’ve died. This is a sci-fi horror game with a gripping story and a stunning twist at the end. So, it’s an RPG worth your time.
Dragon Age Inquisition

You’ll get to create a character in this one and decide on their face, tattoos, beard, and more. Then you’ll be transported into the world of Thedas, and you’ll be blamed for a murder. To make things more difficult, you won’t remember anything and you’ll be plunged into a world of turmoil as there are rifts all over the place and they’re bringing in monsters.
Your character also bears a mark that can close the rifts which is why you’ll be important to the people around you. Soon, you’ll retrieve your memory and you’ll be at the head of the Inquisition looking to put an end to the rifts. You can be a rogue, mage, or warrior in the game and you’ll get some specializations to make your character more powerful.
