      1. Want to play it but everytime I do I have no clue what I am doing or how to do stuff. IMO the game needs a much need tutorial to at least let you know the ins and outs of the game.
      2. Beat both Darkness 1 and 2
      3. Hate Devil May Cry
      4. Never was into Castlevania
      5. Played Amalur

        These are all actual games and deep ones at that. They may not blow your socks off with 1080p 60FPS graphics, but they will challenge your mind since they are strategy/tactics based.

        Edit:

        Two More: Etherlords II and Gridiron Solitaire

          Yeah I didn't mean not actual games. Hell the walking dead is one of my favorites of all time and it's episodic releases.

          I'm just looking more into full release games.

            You said RPG's are an option? I personally loved Infinite Undiscovery for the 360. Square Enix game, story is solid, and I picked it up from Game Stop a year or two ago for $10. So much to do in that game, and endgame there's actually an entire "Seraphic Gate" which is basically "challenge mode" where you have to go through old areas with revamped enemies with a really tough final boss at the end (Ethereal Queen)

            Also, The Last Remnant was pretty fun. Another Square title and it also was pretty deep/interesting to me. There was a lot to mess around with in that game in terms of building and developing your guild and guild's members. Another bargain bin game, probably would be $10-20 to get it used.

            EDIT: But if you don't still have the 360, Infinite Undiscovery is a dumb suggestion. The Last Remnant is available on Steam for $9.99 (just checked.) But that shows what I get for skimming over the OP

              ......You could get a great single player game, called getting a J.O.B. You actually get paid to play it, although its not always that fun, but you can put in at least 40 hours a week at it so it has a lot of replay value. You might even level up if you keep at it enough.

                Lol, yeah no 360 but thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look at the last remnant.

                  @ the Candyman. If you still have a PS3, maybe give Metro Last Light a chance? Heard it has a real good story. Even better, it's free if you have PS+.

                    (in relation to Dark Souls)

                    When I played Demons Souls, I just looked on here
                    http://demonssouls.wikidot.com ..to learn about what the stats and such meant. Just the mechanics of the game though, I'd avoid all spoiler-ish stuff though, as it's best to 'go in blind' in that regard. Anyway, the Souls games have some of the best (if not the best) action combat in an rpg and great atmosphere too, so they really are worth it.

                    Did anybody mention Deus Ex: Human Revolution ?

                    I thought it was better than Mass Effect and there's a director's cut version out now too (with additional content and other stuff)

                    Dishonored (has a GotY too now)

                    Want a pc rpg with a great story/writing/dialogs/characters/setting ?

                    Download the best classic and new games on Windows, Mac & Linux. A vast selection of titles, DRM-free, with free goodies and 30-day money-back guarantee.

                      Well for right now it looks to be between Dark Souls and Kindoms of Amalur: Reckoning.

                      Really want to get into Dark Souls but the PC issues (I know there are fixes) are scaring me away and as for Reckoning I played a little on 360 and was interested but never got into like I should have. As a RPG nut these games are right up my alley from the customization to your character to the freedom of go do what you want.

                      I never actually played Neverwinter or Balders Gate either. Wasteland 2 looks like a fun one as well.

                          That's enough RPG for a lifetime, let's see if I can add to it.

                          How about Jade Empire really underrated Bioware game.

                          You mentioned you liked Skyrim but not FO3/FNV, how about Oblivion and Morrowind (grab the graphics extender mod also)

                          Dragon age origins (and 2.....I suppose)

                          Star Wars Jedi knight: Jedi academy

                          Crusader kings 2 and Europa universals 4 (a bit tough to learn but well worth it)

                              Banished maybe? It was released today and it's great.

                                I played skyrim (loved it) and tried playing Fallout 3 and new Vegas and just can't get into those. Not sure why but I find myself getting bored of them. Maybe it's the lack of a color pallet or something but who knows.

                                I was just wanting some suggestions. I prefer something with a good story or RPG based but anything will do.

                                I don't play a lot but some of the best single player games I've enjoyed in the last few months have been Tomb Raider and Sleeping Dogs.
                                LOVED both of them and highly recommend.

                                My brother also has really, really enjoyed the latest Assassins Creed game.

                                I think all 3 are available for PS4 and/or PC.

                                And if you can get a copy of Red Dead for PC, I highly recommend that as well.
