I like this - I'll be back to it. Expect "older" games from me.

Are we counting Action/Adventure RPGs like Soulslikes or just narrative driven ones?

I tried to stick with narrative driven. I thought about including Horizon Forbidden West because it feels very RPG but I didn't want to extend it too far. Like I would loosely consider something like Fire Emblem even though it's strategy because it is very narrative heavy.

10. Disco Elysium

This was a good game, but I think I missed something because everyone puts it into a legendary tier but I didn't feel that way. It was interesting, I'll give it that, but it did't quite hit me in the way I was hoping. I still beat it and it was good.

23. Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King

This one just missed my list. I remember how massive that map seemed on foot and thought once you got the bird it would make the world seem small but it was still stunning how large they got it considering it wasn't a map in the sense of that era of RPGs.
