SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

PC Games Every Roleplayer MUST own.

I'll contribute.

Final Fantasy VI to X.

Shin Megami Tensei III to V.

Persona 1 to 5.

Xenogears.

Xenosaga.

Xenoblade.

Final Fantasy Tactics.

I would like to add Final Fantasy XIV to the list as well. It is an MMO, but it is extremely solo friendly and the story is really really good. Unfortunately the first part of it is probably the worst, even if it is still good.

Also, there's an extremely generous free trial letting you play to level 60 with some restrictions.

Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura
the swan song of Troika games. released in a horrible state, but was excellent nonetheless, imo

Anachronox

if you open your mind too much your brain will fall out

Their older stuff is pretty good. These days, they're gone full Unicorn farts.

For example, the last AC game that IMHO was any good plot wise was syndicate. Which mind you also is the last one that actually PLAYS like a proper AC game.

While Far Cry 5 and back are all pretty good. You might dislike some of the politics of FC5 due to being about a fringe religious cult in the US but it's actually a pretty well done breakdown about how groups like that work and if you ever want to have a lunatic cult, it's good playing. FC6 on the other hand is skittles and diarrhea in both plot and game play and can be comfortably ignored.

I'll add Terminator Resistance to the List.

Oh... and just because...

Rimworld.
