The conversation/free-for-all around the role of automated "AI"-based game development rolls on with a few thoughts from Tom Hall, co-founder of id Software and one of the creators of the original DOOM, who says he's (Commander) keen on the prospect of "ethical" uses for such tools in gamedev, but worries that reliance on them "will homogenize games, sort of like AAA games are now".

Last year brought RPG gems like Disco Elysium. Was there an RPG as good released in 2020? We’ve updated our list of the best RPGs of all time to reflect the best of the past year – and there’s still dozens of older classics, too. (more…)

Look! A ranking of the 50 best RPGs on PC. I know, you never asked for this, but here it is. It is 100 percent correct, we double-checked. The RPG is a broad and deep sea and fishing out the best games from its characterful waters is no easy task. But we are capable fishers on the good ship RPS, and know when to humanely throw back a tiddler or fight to heave up a monster. Enough of this s...

Spoiler alert, RPGs are kinda ridiculous. Most games are, of course. While the Mythbusters may have shown that carrying Doomguy s loadout into battle isn t as bad as it might sound, there s a reason they ve never done a follow-up about doing it after taking a few rockets to the face. Likewise, we can t know the effect of glugging down fifty health potions a day, but i...

Most RPGs ask you to save the world, but not all of them offer a world worth saving. Honestly, there s been quite a few where given the choice I d have joined the evil overlord just to beat up all the potion vendors who wouldn t even give me a discount before the final battle, and for the mere chance of stabbing the guard in Act 1 who wouldn t let me into The Town Where The...

An entirely objective ranking of the 50 best PC RPGs ever released. Covering the entire history of computer role-playing games is a daunting task and attempting to place the best games in such a broad genre in any kind of order is even more daunting. Thankfully, we are equal to all tasks and below, you will find the best fifty PC RPGs of all time.

Square Enix want indie developers to make a new Gex game! Wait, no, that s not exciting. Let s go again. Square Enix want indie developers to make a new Fear Effect game! Alice, look, come on. Buck your ideas up. Square Enix want indie developers to make a new Anachronox game! Lawks! As planned, they ve had a root around in the Eidos back catalogue and pulled out three IPs they d...

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game recommendations. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. Aka the one where a talking planet joins your party. Sure, Deus Ex gets all the Ion Storm cred, but let s not forget that the other half of the John Romero-founded outfit also pulled off something pretty special, with gonzo roleplaying adventure Anachronox. Rob...
