30 Greatest RPG Video Games Of All Time

27. Divinity: Original Sin

This (partially) Kickstarter-funded release is a back-to-basics, turn-based-combat RPG. Returning to the classic hardcore style of role-playing games, Original Sin is not a game that holds your hand and shows you the way.

This game is hard... very hard. But, like other games with immense difficulty curves, it makes the whole thing all that more rewarding when you do figure it out. With over half a million sales and huge critical claim, the game's success has seen a resurgence in popularity for the old-school RPG genre.

If you find figuring out exactly what to do in a game part of the fun, then this is the one for you.
