I stopped playing the root of all evil (WoW) 3 months ago as it was taking up far too much time, the lack of save and pause gave me too much earache.

Since then I have played Bioshock, Fallout3, Mass Effect, toyed with M2TW and I'm now looking for something else. (Picked up a load of games when Zavvi went down the pan :p ) Tried the 14 day free trial of Lotro, it was good, but I really don't want to start playing MMO's again.

Other games I loved; Deus Ex, KotoR 1+2, FF series, the older Ghost Recons.

I like game where you level/powerup/get items/gear ... typical RPG stuff.

I've also tried S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and still have Clear Sky in the wrapping, just didn't feel much love for the game (again, Zavvi + Sale = Buy then try).

So can anyone suggest something for me to look at? Dungeon Crawl, Guns, not fussed, just need something to do in my spare time!
 
Assuming you want to avoid games similar to WoW..

Empire: Total War

Alternatively why not look at:

Neverwinter Nights
Supreme Commander
Half-Life 2

If you REALLY must play a online MMO:

Warhammer (quite casual for a mmo).
 
Company Of heroes, outstanding game.

Empire Total War, will be even better a couple of patches down the road.
 
Left 4 Dead

/thread

This, for instant action.

If you want RPG action but without the considerable dedication of all your spare time, try a single player RPG like Baldur's Gate (original) or perhaps a turn-based shooter like Jagged Alliance 2.

Time to start downloading some demos I think.

Thanks for the suggestions all, shame steam have removed the L4D demo.

Mattf121: I don't think I could do another MMO, I'd just end up getting wound up with people again (both the misses and the players)

Knightrider: Played R6: Vegas on the 360, single player was just way too short. Then again, finding that with a lot of games these days, I miss the 80hours+ Final Fantasy games and still finding out you missed something.

Caff: Played the old Baldur's Gate 1+2 on PS2, loved them.

Sweetloaf: Looks interesting

Empire Total War Lovers: Gonna look for a demo too.
 
The Witcher
Drakensang
Kings Bounty: The Legend (at a push)
Give the pc version of The Last Remnant a go when it comes out next month?

Dosen't the pc version of The Last Remnant come out today. 20th March.

Or atleast thats what Square enix have on their official page. Isn't it just Steam's DL version coming out on the 9th April.

Edit: I picked up the last remnant from stores today so it is out now.
