Titan Quest 2 devs are the real VIP's. No micro transactions. Classic ARPG systems. Ugh. I really really hope that catches on again across the board (again).

[@zephyr2002]

Yeah, myself a fan of Grim Dawn, it looks like TQ2 will be the one for me to look out for. 👍 Stoked.

[@73ingie]

Agree 💯

[@dominicp9296]

Titan quest is one of the best and 2 im almost positive will live up to that

My most looked forward to ARPG. Isometric or otherwise.

[@darkbunnygod]

Path of Exile 2 looks amazing and is easily my most hyped game on this list.

[@r.lum.r]

From this list I’m most excited for PoE2 and trying Titan Quest 2, though I figured No Rest For The Wicked would be here. I’d never even heard of Dragonkin or Ballad Of Antara, and they both looked cool. Good list!

[@murphieslaw6932]

Exactly this - never heard of these two, but I am stocked about them. Yeah, and PoE 2 will be great, no kidding. It´s gonna be a good year... At least for RPGs.

[@marcussachse9353]

I think No Rest For the Wicked looks so fucking amazing right now that if they manage to pull it off at launch it will be great. Not coming in 25 tho I think. Definitely my most anticipated

[@iamtheblackwizard1071]

Dragonkin and Ballad of Antara, kinda flew under my radar. Interested in seeing more about them. Thank you, Fextra!

[@greyknight627]

Big NO on Veilguard. It’s the final nail in the BioWare coffin and I am so glad people are catching on with why this should be AVOIDED.

I wish No Rest for the Wicked was on this list. Not that it was left out; what I mean is I wish it was coming out sooner.

they have a long way of optimization before that game takes off among other things. I think its a great game just needs a lot of ironing out

[@marcomongke3116]

I feel sorry for Greedfall 2 getting so little attention and traction. So far it looks decent!

[@patrickyates7561]

Great video, thanks a lot. I feel it's worth mentioning though that Soulframe is still in pre-alpha and will definitely not have a full release this year, if even next year. The devs are super transparent about what they're working on, and are basing their dev cycle on Warframe ie. having huge playtests and crafting the game alongside player feedback. It's likely it will be more and more widely available, but players ought to understand it is still in very early stages and hopefully criticise it constructively, as DE are really REALLY good with player feedback.

[@pacman5800]

Black myth wukong was the best game this year by far.

Dragon Age and Kingdom Come are one that got my interest for now. For Dragon Age The Veilguard, "And Hopefully a rich narrative grieving experience" You say... Truth be told... Not just hope, I even pray for it to be so. I really want this one the long running RPG series from my childhood to keep going on. With all the bad news surrounding it, I now only wish for it to at the very least not flopping so bad to the point that it kill both the series and any hope for future installment.

​@mattm7798 Brother, just make a straight dude. You're in control

[@grimmjow0106]

@@mattm7798 they went, woke, not just with the creator, but with the companions and the dialogue and the safe clothing and the entire race of quanari which now is a modern day representation of the trans community. That’s literally the quanaris purpose now… They are meant to represent the trans. Then also the change with the demons into spirits because you can be more safe politically correct with that considering that all the previous iterations and lore , the demons were physical manifestations of their namesake. But like you see with the character models, a desire demon would be problematic as it looks too attractive and sexy, and this modern day audience approach is against anything remotely attractive/sexy. But ultimately all you have to do to understand why veilguard is focused on the wrong priorities/non-gaming priorities….. just look at the game Director. Cory/corine busche. It’s not about dragon age or the game… But about using it as an extension of your own Twitter page. Remove the escape and replace it with self obsessed attention seeking relevancy. 🤦‍♂️😡👎
