So we thought, hey, why not get everyone a little heated up and tell you which of the last generation RPGs were the best.<\/p>\n
For those of you that require a metric or qualification for our picks, how about we just call them our favourite RPGs. That way, if you disagree… well tough.<\/p>\n
Fallout 3 <\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Fallout](\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Biggest-RPGs-Fallout-3.jpg\")
<\/a>Fallout 3<\/p><\/div>\n
Fallout 3<\/em> was the greatest take on the end of the world, bar none. Its massive wasteland and deep character choice system made it something you had to replay over and over again to fully experience.<\/p>\nBethesda did an excellent job in re-imagining the end of the world with their own unique twist on the, otherwise generic, nuclear apocalypse. Washington D.C., the Nuclear Wasteland and all of its inhabitants just felt like they belonged.<\/p>\n
The game\u2019s unique V.A.T.S system allowed for a deeper battle system than the traditional point and shoot, but Bethesda still allowed for a more FPS-like approach should you so choose.<\/p>\n
And if you thought Fallout 3<\/em> out of the box was something, wait until you see what it can do with a few mods installed.<\/p>\nNi No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch
\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Ni](\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Biggest-RPGs-Ni-No-Kuni.jpg\")
<\/a>Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch<\/p><\/div>\n
Oliver\u2019s mother dies in a freak accident. It’s a tragic event that forces Oliver into a journey to another realm in an attempt to find her spiritual counterpart so to bring his mother back to life.<\/p>\n
With Studio Ghibli, the team behind the spectacular Spirited Away<\/em>, and Level 5, the team behind the breath-taking Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King<\/em>, it was hard to go wrong. Ni No Kuni<\/em> was the ultimate mash-up of great story telling, vast environments and a battle system reminiscent of an older generation, but fresh enough to have us entertained throughout.<\/p>\nThe game lasted well over 70 hours, and even after I achieved a Platinum trophy for it, I still longed for more.<\/p>\n
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Skyrim\"](\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Biggest-RPGs-Skyrim.jpg\")
<\/a>Elder Scrolls: Skyrim<\/p><\/div>\n
Have you ever met someone that told you they hated Skyrim<\/em>? I hope you gave them one good punch in the face, because that is blasphemy.<\/p>\nThe Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim<\/em> was the ultimate in open-world fantasy RPGs. Just when you thought the series could not get any more epic, Oblivion <\/em>having done such a considerable job, Bethesda added dragons.<\/p>\nOver 120 hours and a platinum trophy later, as well as a keen eye for dragon bones, and I had fallen victim to the Skyrim<\/em> tornado; it pulls you in and never lets go.<\/p>\nFinal Fantasy XIII<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Final](\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/Biggest-RPGs-Final-Fantasy-XIII.jpg\")
<\/a>Final Fantasy XIII<\/p><\/div>\n
I know some people hated Final Fantasy XIII<\/em>, but it was not the worst game in the world. It was a vision that failed to live up to the Final Fantasy<\/em> name, but that still proved for a rather enjoyable ride.<\/p>\nLightning has become the second most popular Final Fantasy<\/em> character, next to Cloud. Her journey to break the bonds of the L\u2019Cie took her into Cocoon, a world of strict law and order. He ultimate goal, to take down Sanctum while trying avoid an eternal sleep.<\/p>\nThe game had a great setting, Cocoon and Pulse were beautiful worlds that were well imagined. The battle system was a fresh new spin on the traditional turn-based combat, and the Eidolons were as Final Fantasy<\/em> as it was going to get.<\/p>\nDark Souls<\/strong><\/h3>\n
