10 Humongous Video Games You'll Completely Lose Yourself In

Just when you think you're done with Inquisition, it drags you back in for more.

Often overshadowed by similar, recent high fantasy RPGs like The Witcher 3 and Skyrim, Inquisition is bursting with lore, interesting characters, compelling plot and ruinous discoveries. Like The Witcher 3, Inquisition is plot driven, with your Inquisitor facing off with the shady racist and corrupt politics just as much as they are fighting demons and monsters.

Like Skyrim, your character is customisable down to their gender, race and style, all of which have huge ramifications for how the NPCs across Thedas treat you.

Whilst not as large as The Witcher 3 (84 mile2), Inquisition's 45 mile2 map is just as rich in wonder to be discovered. The use of a war table to jump between areas allows for more diversity in geography, from dry desert, to thick forest, to battered coastline. Inhabitants change their opinions of you as you enact your influence, just as agents and companions will join or leave you should you oppose their personal philosophies. There is even the opportunity to customise your stronghold, as well as expand your influence across the world.

Besides the lore and its limited reveal depending on the race and style of your hero, it is the battle difficulty that gives Inquisition huge replayability. Easy and Normal cater for the hackers and slackers amongst us, but raise the bar higher and Inquisition becomes an entirely different game, more reminiscient of strategical isometric RPGs like Diablo.
