Incredibly burned out in WoW and getting increasingly frustrated with the bad PvP games i've been getting in WoW and Smite the past week. So figured i'd best take a break in a relaxing, easy to learn and most importantly fun game environment. Doesn't have to have to be multiplayer based, but bear in mind i hate FPS games with a passion, so that's a no no.
If there's a game like Divinity original sin or Turn based combat, that's a plus. Fantasy setting, and if possible class/character selection (Favorite playstyle is Caster based) Just want something that will relieve a bit of stress i've gained during this week.
Played most mmo's - GW2 / Skyforge / Rift / SWTOR / ESO. So would like to avoid those, for the time being.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Looking for an mmo to play other than wow. However I do want a decent amount of people in the playerbase. Not sci-fi or guild wars.
This is gonna be a hard one![]()
Only play Riki, Nyx Assassin, Bounty Hunter, Nova, Zerawhatever, and any other invis based heroes in their respective MOBAs! :P
Okay, real quick question, ordered a PS4 and it's on its way, so far the only games I know I'm aiming to get are-
Disgaea 5
InFamous Second Son
Bloodborne
Dark Souls 2
Persona 5 and Tales of Zestiria when they come out
Possibly Dragon Age
Anything quick suggestions that I might be forgetting about so far? Generally stick to RPGs as you can tell, already have the Final Fantasy X remake on my Vita before that's named.

If you haven't played The Last of Us, it's a masterpiece. Seriously. Also, I'd get the Uncharted Collection as well so you can be ready for Uncharted 4. Those games are also incredible. The Possibly in front of Dragon Age shouldn't be there. Sure DA:I has flaws but it is still a very enjoyable experience. I'd put it up against DA:O any day.
Obviously The Last of Us and Uncharted are third person shooters, but they're made by Naughty Dog who I'd say is in the top 3 developers of all time.
Funny thing about that, I managed to miss mentioned it, the PS4 I bought comes with The Last of Us, it was a choice between that or the Uncharted Collection, I chose the Last of Us because my brother wanted to try it. But yeah, I'll definitely try to pick up the Uncharted Collection at some point then.
And the Dragon Ages aren't connected much, or are they? I tried Origins on my PS3 but just didn't get into it that much at the time honestly, I put the possibly because I didn't know if I'd miss anything.

Me and two friends from back in the day decided to come together every once in a while and have some beer together while playing some game(s). Only problem, we literally live on different sides of the globe. Therefore, there is simply too much lag in games like DotA, WoW, or shooter XY to be enjoyable. (Keep in mind everything will eventually be turned into a drinking game, so this event is highly competitive and prerequisites need to be even! :P)
In short, I was hoping you guys could recommend some fun multiplayer games, where lag is of no real consequence. The genre, age of the game, graphics, etc really don’t matter. The only requirements are:
PC game
cheap/free, no sub-fee
playable by 3+ people
Hm... I'm going to suggest a rather eccentric game for this one: Mount & Blade: Warband, and the expansion Viking Conquest. It is a hybrid strategy/RPG set in a historically, factually rooted sandbox where you raise armies, cooperate with nobles, raid and build up towns, trade, make alliances, manipulate countries into fighting each other, siege castles, do quests, become mercenaries, and so on. It has quite a lot of depth to gameplay and - if you want to completely take over the world - alot of game time value for it's very low price. It's a gem.
There are two flavors of M&B:W; the base Warband game, which takes place exclusively on land (no ships) but set in the classical European high middle ages of knights and princesses, with a heavy emphasis on Calvary regiments and heroisim. The other route you can go is the Viking Conquest expansion, which is set in Dark Age Brittania, with an emphasis on infantry and cooperation. Unlike Warband, you can't play hero and solo the game; you MUST get other lords and nobles to fight with you to win. A key feature of Viking Conquest is naval combat, as you will regularly sail around and between Ireland, Britain, and Scandinavia.
