Good RPGs

I've been bored for some weeks now due to lack of a good game. I really feel like an RPG. Nothing kills time better than that. Has anyone got any ideas? To be honest, I haven't been lucky with recent RPGs.

Neverwinter Nights 2 was awesome, but I'm not too keen to replay it. Oblivion was good, but not enough story. Fallout 3 I could play, but I've only got the 360 version, and I'm looking for a PC RPG. Anyone got any ideas?
 
Have you played Sacred 2?

Have you tried any of the Dungeon Siege games? You might also try looking for second-hand copies of Arcanum, Divine Divinity, Planetscape:Torment, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, Icewind Dale 1 and 2, Revenant, Nox,Titan Quest,Legend:Hand of god, Darkstone,Spellforce 1 and 2, Sacred, or the original Fallout games.A friend of mine bought himself the Fallout 1,2 and Tactics collection recently.

Last year I bought myself The Forgotten Realms Deluxe Collection box which comprises 5 games and their expansions. [Neberwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2,Throne of Darkness,Greyhawk:Temple of Elemental Evil Icewind Dale 1 and 2] Well worth it!

I take it that you have played Diablo 1 and 2 to death?
 
Phoenix gave some valuable tips ... but if you want an AWESOME light hearted RPG ... try Fable1 ... I absolutely LOVED it!

Dungeon siege2 is also very nice, but fable will keep you captivated like no other.
 
Fable 1 the lost chapters was quite enjoyable on pc. Summoner was also good but quite buggy ! for old school rpgs u can always try ff7 and FF8 on pc

Played Dungeon Siege and quite a few of the other ones you listed. Baldur's Gate, surprisingly enough, is one I haven't played. That sounds like a good idea.

Yeah, Diablo 1 and 2 I've killed. I love the old Final Fantasy games -- not the new ones, since X-2 the series has gone downhill, but I've played FF7, 8 and 9 so many times now, I've practically unlocked every secret and got the ultimate weapons for every character, except for FF9.

Either way, Fable is an awesome game, played that a few times too.

But Baldur's Gate, I'm gunna look for that. Thanks.
 
I take it you would rather play a newer game than the ones mentioned? If so then have a look at these two:
Mass Effect
The Witcher Enhanced Edition
 
Personally, and graphically it is a little outdated now unfortunately, but my ALL TIME favourite RPG EVER is Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II (and 1 straight after).

It's set 5000yrs before the galactic empire so no luke skywalker or Darth Vader or somesuch. You spend about half the game acquiring enough skills/materials/crystals to build yourself a lightsaber...once you have one it feels like quite an accomplishment. I played that game for 32hrs straight at one occasion. It was THAT good.
 
Mass Effect is good, but compared to KotoR it's quite a short game and I didn't feel the characters were as well developed. Fun to play though.
 
Oblivion was really fun, but the thing with that is once you're bored with Oblivion, you're just totally out of it. That's what I had at least.

DO you have the OOO mod for Oblivion?
 
Acid made me remember this...
Its not exactly a true RPG in the sense of some of the newer titles but you should try out Freelancer :D
