So with Dragon Age 2 being everything I don't like in an RPG, I am stuck looking for a new RPG that follows the party system based upon the baulders gate model. I'm playing Dragon Age right now, but I've already played through it and I'd like to pick up a new one. The only problem is I can't find one. I've been searching Steam with no luck so I'm looking for some reccomendations.

I'm not familiar with the party system in Baldur's Gate (I've been meaning to play it for ages though), I'll just copy and paste my 'essential RPG list' I posted in another thread a while back.

What I consider the essential RPGs

Dragon Quests V - IX

Tales of Symphonia

Skies of Arcadia

Chrono Trigger and Cross

Xenogears

All Ogre (Ogre Battle/Tactics Ogre)

Both 'true' Paper Marios

Suikoden I and II (I haven't played the PS2 ones)

Grandia

The Soul Blazer trilogy

Shining Force II

All 3 Final Fantasy Tactics

All Main line Pokemon RPGs

All 3 Golden Suns

Secret of Mana

The World Ends With You

Star Ocean I and II

List above is good.

Out of those I've only played both Paper Marios myself. As well as Mario & Luigi / SMRPG.

If you liked Dragon Age, you would probably enjoy the original Dungeon Siege and Dungeon Siege II. They have very similar gameplay.

The Witcher on PC is somewhat similar to Dragon Age and is said to be very good.

The Witcher 2 is coming later this year (in May) so it would get you ready.

Dungeon siege is good, as mentioned above. Witcher would be a good choice too.

Time for hype

Oooo, I like me some Co-op... But this article was written last year. Do we have any latest news about it, like if it's removed or not? I wouldn't like to be hyped up by something, just to realize they removed some features a few months earlier before the release.
