Coming from discuss.tchncs.de, I’d like to create a non-Lemmy profile in case things went wrong there. PieFed seems nice.
My favourite ARPG, and one of my all-time favourite game. The gameplay, the character builds and loots are awesome, I especially like that you can use green Monster Infrequent equipments in the endgame too. But what’s even better are the lores. Every faction exists reasonably, there are no black and white, random NPCs you met on the road who only have a few sentences, make you feel for them too. I think I’ll continue playing it for many years. I’m also looking forward to the new expansion.


Apart from Mass Effect, Pillars of Eternity, and Deus Ex as others have already mentioned, I’d like to also add:
Grim Dawn.
The conflicts in its Universe feels reasonable, all the factions have their history and reasons of existence, there are beneficial and selfish, but no clear black and white, and everything interacts. The Lore is very good for an ARPG that focuses on combat, loots and built.
I encountered these people while playing Divinity Original Sin too. They basically exploited the mechanism, stole everything, abused the chest/telekineses method, then felt good about themselves, look down on everyone who don’t play that way.
