You can play in third person.

I know, but that doesn't change the point I was making. There's only one set of armor meshes for both genders. There's also only one set of animations, which are universally terrible, so that makes third person view even more of an abomination. What I was getting at is that the 'body type' selector is a retarded change for mentally ill degenerates, but it has no lasting effect since you can't even see that choice on the character sheet. The real problems are the meshes and animations, plus the bug/oversight that left the revamped "origin" choice still tied to the character's gender.

If modding counts then Skyrim probably at least belongs in the vicinity of the top 10. Without mods NWN definitely does not.

In no particular order my personal top 9 would be

Wrath of the Righteous
Cyberpunk 2077
Witcher 3
Bloodlines
New Vegas
Deus Ex
Mass Effect
Torment
Kotor

For me Mass Effect and DAO would be more or less at the same spot but I wanted to just pick 1 and even without the remaster Mass Effect's gameplay aged much better.

Not to nitpick but actual question, would Russia be considered ”Western” for this topic? Owlcat started in Russia and while currently headquartered in Cyprus still has pretty deep Eastern Bloc roots.

yes. East/west in this regard is not post ww2 east/western blocs. Its a European, versus East Asia one. base cultures. Russia's cultural roots are European. not Chinese/mongolian, Korean/Japanese, etc.

PS had the best review of Starfield I found. Everyone criticized it, but few really correctly understood what went wrong. His review was the most accurate that I heard.

Imagine watching a six hour analysis of a video game.

It's also not some complex mystery to understand why people didn't like certain aspects of Starfield.

What are you, NOT autistic?!?!?

Late to the party, but NWN2 MotB goes on my RPG list near the top. (loved the original as well)
Even ME1 probably, for the story, and DAO.
