Looking for a decent dark RPG

<< < (5/5)

Surgoshan:
I don't know if Shadow of the Colossus counts as an RPG, but it's beautiful, dark, and compelling.

Scandanavian War Machine:
well, if you're into stats and gear and all that jazz, may i suggest Lost Odyssey? it's got all that up the wazu, and it looks amazing to boot.
it's not really 'dark' in the traditional sense, but it certainly deals with some very dark subject matter which can actually get kind of depressing at times.

snalin:
Oh, and the graphics really sucks, but avernum is goood like hell.

demo is a sixth of the game, so you'll get a lot of time to find out if it's "nah" or if it owns.

I've heard much the same, actually.  It seems like everyone is all "OMG I WON'T PLAY IT BECAUSE IT IS 4 SQUAER FANSBOI" or actually sit down to play it and enjoy it significantly.

Dimmukane:
I just have no patience for turn-based JRPGs anymore.  I tried really hard to like Eternal Sonata, but I just can't get around turn-based battle systems.  In a fight, you don't wait for the other guy to kick you in the nads, you go at it in a blur of denim until one of you falls and the other walks.  I have almost never taken advantage of the turns in d20 video games, I save that for pen-and-paper.
