Good Offline RPGs that work on Win7

[Quetzalma]

Hey all =)

I've installed Windows 7 a couple days ago and so far i love it, but atm, what concerns me are games

What good offline RPG games(I'm sick of MMORPGs) work 100% on Win7?

Many Thanks =)

I can personally recommend the following:

• Fallout 3 + All of its DLC
• Oblivion + Xpacs
• Fable: TLC
• Morrowind (Older game but far superior than Oblivion IMO)
• Mass Effect

I have heard good things about Dragon's Age: Origins but I personally have not tried it. Mass Effect 2 is supposedly coming out in the next few months, I would keep an eye out for this.


--Edit

Oh and yes these work on Windows 7, at least on my computer.

If you like Diablo I would recommend Torchlight. It's only $20 on Steam.

Try Borderlands! It's a combo of FPS and RPG... really cool.

Already played Oblivion but I never finished it since I formatted the computer, might give it a go again
Already played and beated Fable(Evil ftw)
I've been wanting to try Morrowind, but since it was a previous version of Oblivion I always thought it would be somewhat inferior, I'll give it a go
Both Mass Effect and the Fallouts are Third Person Shooters, right?
Dragon Age looks like a great game from Google Images, I'll probably give this one a go first

If you like Diablo I would recommend Torchlight. It's only $20 on Steam.

Ye, I like Diablo, I'll go watch some gameplay movies on Youtube to see if it's my style

Try Borderlands! It's a combo of FPS and RPG... really cool.

I'm not into FPS, imo they are always the same thing and they have bored me.. I'll look it though =)


Thanks for all oppinions guys =)

Get Dragon Age: Origins which is a new offline RPG which was rated 9.5 by GameSpot. I just started playing it, but judging from the reviews I read, it is a great game.

Risen is another good RPG

Mass Effect is one of those types of games that can't decide WHAT it is. But it's mostly cutscenes with just a little bit of a game thrown in. I have not played it, though. What I've heard about it unimpresses me, and Sonic Chronicles was such a piece of s*** that I've decided I'll bust a hand before I play another Bioware title.

Ys: Oath In Felghana plays fine with the english patch applied.

Most of the good offline RPGs have been mentioned, but I've been playing one recently called Mount&Blade. It's like Oblivion meets Medieval: Total War. It can be a bit slow if you play it properly (mods and the money/xp cheats to help you along can speed things up), but the battles are great. By default, the max battle size is 100 so 50v50 battles by default that you actually take part in and fight along side your party, or you can get a mod where you can set battle size up. I'm running it with a battle size of 150 vs 150, which is great fun.

Well i'm in the process of loading up some new game I got today - Borderlands and Dragon Age: Origins. Both games appear to be working thus far, so...

I've also got Fallout 3 (Game of the year) edition loaded and it runs fine for me under Windows 7... dispite all the complaints elsewhere.

For newer games: Dragon Age Origins and Fallout 3.

For an older game: Diablo II, as I had no problems getting it to run in Windows 7.

I'm currently playing that, it's not a bad game and I think in 12 to 18 months it'll become a MMORPG so say the developers.

thanks for all the comments guys =)

I'm currently trying out Dragon Age and so far, I love it
I might try Mount&Blade after it

Thanks again

Agree!
I forgot this excellent game!
You have a lot of customizations and great mods for it.
This game is the example of a really good game, give it a try you don't be dissppointed.

I second Torchlight, but would buy it directly from the developer, since you always get the patches faster than anywhere else (DRM depends on where you bought the game, so the patches differ also): Torchlight - Official Site

Really neat Diablo-style game with low system requirements. Comes with the full toolset and editor. The demo can be turned into a full version, no need to restart your characters.

Thanks again

Since I'm currently addicted to Borderlands right now, I haven't got a chance to play Dragon Age yet, though I did set up my character

At any rate, i'll probably put Borderlands down and give Dragon Age a go. I'm really curious about this game as its my first true RPG game.

As for issues under Windows 7, so far Borderlands runs great. I played 5 straight hours the other day and not a hiccup or slowdown.

Oh... I'm playing Borderlands in single play and it is immersive. In case anyone is wondering how single play is.

Peace

DRAGON AGE ORIGINS is great, massive game and you need to really think about tactics as you play as it does become quite tough, nice graphics and superb story makes it a top notch game.

Oblivion is very nice too and I have had no problems with Fallout 3 on 64bit Win7.
