Anon wants American companies to make a good RPG
Anon baits people into recommending good RPGs
143ReplyFallout, Wasteland, The Elder Scrolls.
Also smaller games come to my mind, like Child of Light or South Park: The Stick Of Truth which are made by Ubisoft Montreal. 104ReplyFallout? And I mean the Black Isle fallouts.
Speaking of Black Isle, they also did Planescape and Icewind Dale.
Also: Bioware made Baldur's Gate 1 and 2; they're Canadian not European. Unless they just mean 3.
And of course, the OG RPG: D&D. Pretty sure Gygax was American.
69ReplyIntentionally lists RPGs not made in US
"Why doesn't my list have RPGs made in the US?!?"

Elder scrolls, Fallout, Red Dead Redemption, and Mass Effect would all like a word
66ReplyI'm gonna defend the Americans on this one.
Fallout and Elder Scrolls are two of the most obvious examples that could have been listed, but they weren't.
44ReplyI'm surprised no one has mentioned Mass Effect yet. Or Dragon Age, even with a picture of a cosplay of Morrigan in the OP.
41ReplyPathfinder - Asia
Uhh, no? Paizo is an American company. Based in Redmond, Washington, according to Wikipedia.
35ReplyIt gets even worse when you know Europe and Asia are the same continent.
31ReplyNot including FF, Dragon Quest or Persona in Asian RPGs?? Blasphemy!
28ReplyWell, the Diablo series was quite good
27ReplyWants good RPGs
lists Solasta, one of the mid-dest games I've have the neutrality of playing
24ReplyDungeons and Dragons
22ReplyWasn’t Gary Gygax American?
21ReplyIs Rockstar US? I considered the red dead series a quite hellacious RPG. Is GTA an RPG?
16ReplyI was going to say Horizon Zero Dawn, but Guerilla Games is Dutch.
12ReplyI seriously can't tell if that's cosplay or video game screenshot
10ReplyBethesda alone.
Wizardry, Ultima... Rogue?
The entire genre of RPGs exists because of geek-ass weirdos on American mainframes in the late 1970s. I got nerd-sniped wondering what could've come out on Channel F, and every trope was established and waiting before literally the first proper games console.
6ReplyGive me like 15 years.
6ReplyThere was once a game called Warcraft 3. I refuse to play the remake.
5ReplyWit da SKALD reference
4ReplyI'd say it's just barely an Action RPG. But there's no real decision making in the story, or even an attempt at it like Mass Effect, The Witcher, Cyberpunk.
1ReplyUndertale.
1ReplyGrand theft auto.
-6ReplyAmerica invented the entire RPG genre - thank you Steve and Dave (d&d). Anon isn't just wrong; he's a complete idiot.
-7ReplyAmeritards can't even handle being a country, let alone creating decent content.
