Want to know some good first person RPGs. Been kinda bored lately and I want to know some good games for when I get some cash. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't say Skyrim or Oblivion. I played the shit out of Oblivion and I lost interest in Skyrim. Also Dead Island because I'm borrowing it from a friend right now. I'd like it if they were either fantasy or sci-fi, nothing too realistic.

Very similar to Oblivion and Skyrim and Morrowind. Essentially the same game as Oblivion, as far as the engine goes, but with enhancements, focus on gunplay, and a fun pause-for-orders mechanic. As far as everything else goes though, it's very different. FULL of atmosphere, story, and love - by comparison.

You on drugs or something? Third person view in TES and new Fallouts is always atrocious and unplayable. You can't aim right, you don't see what's in front of you, your movement model changes for some inexplicable reason and your view is obstructed by the ceiling indoors. 3rd person view in these games is garbage.

Also, you cannot see in the trailer, but you can use the froze spell on the ground... and the enemies will slip and fall on the ground when they run over it! :D. This game has so many different ways to approach it :D

It's not EXACTLY an RPG, more like Legend of Zelda with a couple more choices, like 3 more choices...it is linear, built around the HL2 idea, physics puzzles, hectic combat, limited gear choices and I think there are even 2 paths at the very end. RPG? No, Action-Adventure game? Yes.

That's a problem, since outside of the TES and Fallout series, the rest mostly just suck dick. Deus Ex (the original) is kind of glitchy on modern systems, the newest one is more of a stupid persons version of a great series/concept. So, you are limited to a. shitty games, or b. third person and hybrid first and thirds.

It is, but it is WAY oldschool. You have to REALLY like the old dungeon crawler genre to play it. Like, you own books upon books of graph paper and play D&D every week. You just go through the dungeon, no quests, no real reason, just do it.

I presume you just won't buy all of the games suggested here so I'm going to say you should get Fallout 3 over New Vegas. NV may have more content to play, but that doesn't mean you won't be spending a lot of time with Fallout 3. F3 just has a better atmosphere, it really feels post-apocalyptic. Also i find the DLC's in Fallout 3 better.

Interesting, I've always heard (and agree with) the exact opposite: NV has less to do and has better atmosphere (+ it's generally improved.)

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is really a good surprise. I was expecting some basic gunfights, but no, lots of RPG elements and customization. You can also clear a lot of maps through different means too (same objective, but different paths and methods).

I can't recommend the Fallout 3 / Fallout: New Vegas enough. Tons of hours' worth of exploration, tons of quests, tons of everything. Skyrim and the such can hide themselves: there's no comparison at all, very different world of quality in the games.

I'll suggest something a little more far-fetched. Amnesia: The Dark Descent might be interesting. It's not so much of an RPG, but it looks like one. It's first person, and really, it's spooky. It's a unique experience, try it.

Not horror at all. Some mutants, and stuff. And the Controller is cool. Shooting people is very satisfying in STALKER because the enemies won't go down except if you aim for the head. Shadow of Chernobyl is the best. The only horror in this game is when you got shot and you have know idea where the bullet come from.
