Less MMO, more RPG

spengos · 13 Feb 2014 at 21:10

I'm looking for an RPG that has a nice slow progression of gear and loot(zero to hero), like an MMORPG, but with the story and quality questing of a good CRPG. It needs to be fairly modern and have a typical fantasy theme. I've played Skyrim to death already, so not that. Witcher 2 looks good but there doesn't seem to be a lot of variation in gear(or am I wrong?). Anything else worth trying?

Thanks but I've played a lot of Diablo 3 and Torchlight, plus they aren't really RPGs.

kingdoms of amalur.

I actually thought it was like playing a single player mmo when I was playing it.

I played Kingdoms of Amalur for a couple of hours but I got bored quite quick. Something about it felt so bland and generic. It's very close to what I'm after, I just wish it had a bit more soul. Maybe I need to give it another try...

Dark Souls

Played it. Loved it. No quests or story though.

I kind of want to say Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic but I'm not sure if the combat is what you are after and I only played 15 hours of it so I don't know how the gear progressions keeps on going.

Edit: And it isn't modern

Yeah I played KotOR back in the day. Great game. Wish there was a modern fantasy version. The gear progression was good and the questing was epic.
