Best singleplayer RPGs are:
Baldur's Gate
Neverwinter Nights
Mass Effect (1&2)
Dragon age
Pretty much anything BioWare
Gothic - all parts of it
Tes 4 Morrowind
Gothic 3
Divinity 2 ego draconis
Thanks for the great response!
Several people recommend Dragon Age so I think I may try that first. I didn’t count, but Baldur’s Gate may be the next most recommended, and although the trailer for Torchlight is short it looks promising.
Thanks to everyone who posted, I will continue to watch this thread for additional recommendations.
BTW, I should add that I am only interested in games for the PC. I have a 360 but it has been months since I turned it on. The controllers make my hands hurt.

Neverwinter Nights.
Bioware released a toolset to build your own adventures with it. IGN's NWNvault has a ton load of Modules (player built mods) available.
It should keep you busy for a few years. Once you get bored you can build your own.
Such a fantastic bit of software.
Orwell was almost exactly wrong in a strange way. He thought the world would end with Big Brother watching us, but it ended with us watching Big Brother.
i suggest you take a look at The Elders Scroll: Oblivion and Arcania: Gothic 4.
The Elders Scroll: Oblivion, really shows you the definition of RPG, huge landscape with alot of skills and other possibilities, another thing is that the game has a good story
Arcania: Gothic 4, also good rpg alot of people prefer Gothic 3 above 4, but i say...try 4, but only if you have a decent computer, because dam this game is gonna make your processor sweat like hell. They recommand a I7 processor, but a decent quad core will do fine to. If your computer is crap, try Gothic 3 then.
other possiblities:
Two worlds 1, or Two worlds 2
The Witcher
if you also like strategy then League of Legends might be something for you, it's an strategy-rpg, you can compare it with Defend Of The Ancient and Demigod, but League of Legends is the best in the series if you ask me.
Minecraft! :P
Morrowind is too short too :P
Just an update...
I bought Dragon Age: Origins, Ultimate Edition. I have only played for a few minutes and I like the game already, however I am disappointed in EA Games.
Ultimate Edition includes all 7 downloadable content packs, but you must go online to activate them. I registered through the link provided while installing the game and the game says that I am online, but the website does not recognize my registration, so I can not activate the additional content I paid for, and I can not email their Technical Support because you must be registered to do so... /cry
I also bought Torchlight. I have not installed it yet.
BTW, a few people have recommended Morrowind and/or Oblivion. I have both. I liked Morrowind (and both expansions) quite a bit, Oblivion; not so much.

Dragon Age feels a lot like WoW, except for the ability to pause in combat.
Yeah Dragon Age is good.
Personally.. Blizz should branch out and make Warcraft into a console RPG It would be amazing!
My vote is for Two Worlds 2.... though certainly not without its flaws (I'm looking at you, rather vague and poorly implemented UI), the gameworld is unbelievably engrossing.
Also, how can you dislike a game that has horse racing, gambling, lockpicking, and barding for tips all under 1 roof?
dot hack G.U.
Can't believe no ones said Darksiders, Even tho it's short its sweet.
