Wasn't that released just three years prior? How old are your parents?
- morsch 4y agoThree years makes a big difference if he was, say, 12 when Morrowind was released. And while I wouldn't call it convoluted, Planescape: Torment is much more cerebral and much less experiential than an open world first person RPG.
- nwiswell 4y agoYeah I'm guessing that's what he meant. PS:T is less accessible to the general gaming public in that regard.
- Beltalowda 4y agoThe problem is that the "game" parts are not very good; even outright shit, especially if you compare it to Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale. It more than makes up for that in atmosphere and writing, but many players are expecting to, well, play a game, not read a novel, which is entirely fair. Tides of Numeria suffered from the same issue.
