The Banner Saga Trilogy. One of my favorite games of all time. Perfect example of how to use a small dev team to create something that is unique, recognizable at first glance and fun to play. And the story was engaging.

Love the art style but the combat system is just poorly designed. Enemies get the same number of turns regardless of how many units they have left on the field. It basically encourages you not to kill them. Also some of the gotcha moments in the story are not well thought out either. Losing a character you mainly leveled due to unpredictable story choice is just bad design.

@@hbkmog2766 I disagree with both points in the sense of being objectively bad design. Its a matter of taste. The combat is stylized like in every game therefore it comes down to design decisons - people also complain about combats where characters are as functional with 1% health as with 100%. Personally I enjoyed it for being different than other systems. And the argument about story and character loss - some might find it just a realistic deisgn. Sometimes you can't avoid it to lose someone important. Now does this mean I think everybody should like it? Nope, it comes down to personal taste. I count both of these actually being strengths of the game, but I whole heartedly understand if someone disagrees.

@@hbkmog2766 Actually wounding/making your enemy combat ineffective is in realistic settings more efficient than killing them especially when you can use weapons like firearms that stay effective as long as they hit their target not depending on the fatique of the user.... and especially turnbased systems are so extremely stylized that they barely make any realistic sense so I don't mind. The initiative system with armour and wounding and the last guy of one side countinously going have a very unique challenge combined with injuries beig carried on to the next encounter - that I really appreciated. It was far more complex than most systems - thinking of any D&D like 1 hitpoint guy just keeps going combat like in the first round. Those just turn out to be everybody jumps on one target, then the next, then the next,... and so on... Its not my favorite combat system (that would have been the tabletop wargame Confrontation 2), but it was interesting. Still its up to personal preferences.

If I remember correctly, Lost Eidolons is planning to add more battles in a future update in a challenge sort of mode. It felt to me like it had just 30 battles since all the optional battles were the same, humans or monsters with all of them doing the same stuff. You knew exactly what way they would approach you etc. Really loved most of the missions with the only one I honestly disliked was the last mission. Great first game.

Another similar game, Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden. I really liked it, it's more into divide and conquer than straight out fights as you move around the area looking for lone enemies or small groups you can take out in 3 actions (more with some skills). Each character can take a single action each turn and you only have 3 at any time thus you have to plan around their unique skillset. some can stun for a set number of turns, knock back foes so they take fall damage, fire twice for a accuracy penalty, lock them in place etc. If you plan well you can do the whole game without getting hit a single time even on hardest/ironman setting.

Contains a good story, good game mechanics, nice visuals and GODLIKE soundtrack.

I love how position can matter in that game, have been re-watching Merlin so became deeply involved again with Arthurian legend.

The ones I enjoyed from this year are Prime of Flames, Alina of the Arena and Symphony of War. The first two are more rogue-like than RPG and SoW is more of a classic Fire Emblem but units are actually composed with multiple characters. From past years I enjoyed Othercide, Mordheim, FellSeal and Troubleshooter. I also really like turn based tactics in my CRPG instead of real-time w/ pause and maybe that's why I love games with a blurry line between CRPG and TRPG like Shadowrun (plus the setting is cherry on the cake). When you think about it it has the objective-based battles with tight map design and HUB/mission structure of TRPGs with the exploration/investigation/roleplay added in.

Mordheim has a very neat ambiance and soundtrack and you can play the skavens :D Suffers from 2 downsides, thought: 1. No separation between PvE and PvP. That would be fine if it was all skirmishes but you get actual story missions and iirc you can't postpone them indefinitely so a few losses against friends can stop your progress and you're good to start a new band. I think it's like PvP skirmishes are unlimited but you only can do 1 PvE skirmish between story missions so it's hard to recoup after a loss. Can't remember well except there was a bummer of that kind. 2. Games Workshop milking its IP so additional factions are overpriced DLC.

ChaosGate is a great game for a single playthrough. The story is awesome, rebuilding the Edict is fun. The classes all have unique styles. It really is a good ride the 1st time through. The problem is the mid-game grind, the lack of variety in side quests, and the fact there are only win/lose endings, along with the fact the Stratagem system is a complete waste, means it's fun 1 time. But it's very fun that one run. Knight's Tale has almost the opposite problem. With every mission a set piece, there is no mid-game slog, and you're almost always weaker than the opposition until end game. But the morality system means every playthrough can be different. And the battles will always be a challenge, especially if you boost difficulty to match familiarity. But the story isn't terribly surprising. And this game is more Grimdark than the Warhammer one. Which is saying something. So it's fun. But I can only take so much of it. Expeditions: Rome is brilliant. Nothing in it should be as good as it is. I played Vikings, and that game is ok as ok gets. Rome does everything well. Especially after the Legion Battle update. And it's absolutely worth playing at least 3 times, with 1 as a female PC. Because of the different endings and the tonal shift when playing m vs f.

Newbie question on TRPGs - are they normally just tactical combat and cutscenes like Lost Eidolons? I liked the combat, even though I wasn't great at it, and the camp was ok. However, the complete lack of player agency on what was happening (basically one long cutscene after another just leads you from battle to battle with players having no input or choice) at least in the early game was extremely disappointing to me. Is that a standard of TRPGs, as opposed to CRPGs where the player makes lots of decisions, or was this just a bad example in that particular case?

I've been meaning to say that I share the same sentiment towards your observations regarding King Arthur's Knight's Tale endgame, so I made a mod, which actually addresses all the things you mentioned + more + overhauls and brings up to par many characters. Name of the mod is: King Arthur Knight's Tale Enhanced Edition. Maybe you would be interested in giving this game another go with my mod? The changes are quite substantial and should make your experience very fresh. It would be amazing if you would be willing to make a video with your feedback on the mod, as your observations regarding base game was spot on.

@@ZiPouet Story and characters, TRPGs focus specifically on the strategy combat and team management usually utilizing a mission structure as opposed to more emphasis on the narrative and roleplaying in a CRPG. Admittedly similar genres but a few distinct differences. You wouldn't really compare XCOM with DOS1/2 for instance. Certainly down to semantics in some respects though sure.

@@MortismalGaming what defines a genre is the game mechanic. In DOS combat are tactical and all you mentioned the refer to RPG = TRPG :) If DOS would be a CRPG it could be compared to Diablo which is ridiculous ;)

@@ZiPouet you can feel however you want about it, its of little consequence. Diablo is an ARPG though. Regardless, that's why they aren't on the list, which is the answer to your question.

I am loving Troubleshooter even if my opinion of the story is way worse than yours. I got bored of Cirque Electric very fast. Circus management was a chore and the combat was not enough fun to overcome it. I must try Expeditions Rome. I also really enjoyed the other two but I came to them before the channel. I can tell the honourable mentions are unlikely to land with me :). So thanks for the Troubleshooter heads up!

Totally agree on triangle strategy. I really like the combat, but the story is WAY too heavy for me. It seems like forever to get into the actual combat.
