Your channel has been such a breath of fresh air- no clickbait, no stupid “broadcaster voice”, no snarky hot takes; just earnest and well thought out opinions. Truly appreciate everything that you’re doing with the channel!

[StygSoft]

Whoa, Underrail at #7 and above all legendary RPGs of 90s/2000s. I'm flattered.

[dgmaffi]

This channel is the absolute standard for RPG/CRPG info, reviews, and discussion. In my opinion, no other channel comes close. Thank You for all the hard work and excellent content!

[EventHorizonGames]

13:36 Thank you for mentioning us! You should definitely check the latest version of the game. We've made a lot of changes since the pre-release version based on all the feedback we've received.

[pmratpoison]

no clickbaity tierlist that devolves a complex opinion into a single categorization? tsk tsk tsk

[terryli]

in a sea of gaming review channels yours has always stood out, that's hard to do. great fair takes on games, detailed but concise, doesn't waste my time. even if i'm not interested in the games i'm interested in your takes. awesome work keep going!

[jays]

Ranking ELEX above KOTOR and KOTOR 2 is absolutely CRIMINAL.

[maboilaurence]

Kudos to Wasteland 2 for being so good at introducing the lore and plot of Wasteland 1 to new players. You can ask survivors of the first game (both allies and enemies) what happened in the first game and their thoughts about it, getting multiple points of view. Few RPGs nailed that aspect without bloating the game with unnecessary walls of text, WL2 did it so well with few lines of dialogues.
Most RPGs will have this info break the pace of the story, but Wasteland 2 has some quests that are directly related to conflicts that were caused by the actions of the first game's protagonists, so you both get a general idea of what happened AND new content that stands on its own.

Love the list, Mortym. Happy to have seen many of these come out over the years. While I agree that WoTR is probably my favorite, there's simply so many games and worlds that deserve all the praise in the world for what they do. I'm very excited to see the list grow as we go forward!

[HubertTheMad]

I watched this from beginning to end. Great video as always!

[lecsh.]

holy shit I was literally just watching your previous ranking video on the toilet 30 minutes ago, how fortuitous!

[axeldrane]

Excellent video that not only serves as a great ranking to guide newcomers through the many CRPGS available, but also help veterans like me discover titles that went under the radar :) Awesome work man.

[SlanderedGaming]

Great video. Some of these I haven't played yet and I'll have to check them out.

[perlichtman]

I’m just starting to watch this video but I wanted to say thanks for making it. As someone that has played a lot fewer CRPGs than JRPGs, I really appreciate the context you provide going through a lot of them. :)

[ThomasPaine]

I love this kind of video, Mortym, rankings! And your rankings are very entertaining and informative.

[carador]

Thank you for ranking Expeditions: Rome so highly! When it came out, it was the first game I played all the way through in a long, long time. But like you, I have the feeling that it's rather unknown and nobody talks about it anymore.

[sinclairo]

Thank you so much for mentioning fan patches and mods for the older titles. Keep that up please and maybe expand on that aspect in your next overview video. I hate to search for hours what I need to install to get older titles too work just to get the usual discussions of "you really need that patch" vs "it runs fine for me without any patch".

[elwinkline]

I respect and value your reviews a ton and you keep talking about these Pathfinder games that I've actually cracked the seal on Kingmaker and am really enjoying it so far! I don't want to spoil myself by playing Wrath of the Righteous first, so after my KM run I do plan on jumping into WotR. You speak highly of Rogue Trader as well, so maybe a big Owlcat push is in my future.

[Izemrasen.]

Pretty list, everytime I watch this type of videos it makes me want to buy and play a new RPG 😅. Can't agree more on Tyranny needing a sequel, it has so much potential (I hope someone from Obsidian sees this 😛)

[Dionis]

Dang, the ranking just shocked me at times. Despite the difference in taste we have (and quite a difference that is), I really enjoyed the video. Thanks 😊
