Yeah... if the price is hard-set, I'd go original Bioshock 2.
DS3 is pretty bad to be totally honest. I'd go Torchlight 2 before getting it. Kingdoms wasn't terrible, it got a really bad rap, but certainly not the top of the RPG world right now. Bioshock and Borderlands make me think Elder Scrolls, and if Skyrim doesn't drop to your price range, Morrowing was, and is great, and Oblivion wasn't as bad as people make it out to be. (Worst of the TES games, still towards the top of the genre of first-person sandbox RPG games.)

Titan Quest is pretty similar to Torchlight and fairly linear too.

Agreed. I can very much recommend Titan Quest and the expansion. With a few mods and in co-op it's a real fun challenge.

I've just been given a tip that Hunted: The Demon's Forge may fit this perfectly. What can any of you say for it?

Amalur can be linear, depending on how in depth you decide to play it. If you do all side quests it's not that linear. Still this would be the top choice imo.

Gothic series?
I know some of them will be under $10. Can't say if they're good or not since I've not played them.
Two Worlds II fits the criteria except price. For some reason it's not discounted AT ALL.
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is $1 more than 10, but if it gets a Daily Deal it'll definitely be less than $10. Same goes for Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.
The Fallout series is an RPG/FPS hybrid. Fallout 3 is currently sitting close to $10, it may get discounted at a later date.

Recettear muahaahah
Dungeons & Dragons + LOTR are both good F2P mmorpgs very good quality
Ys Origin is good and it is on sale though $12 maybe it will be on the daily for $8-10
Legend of Grimrock is supposed to be a fairly good rpg in the line of the Elder Scroll series

I'd say the original fable, not sure how it is on pc but I loved it on the xbox. It's fairly linear and a solid game.

That's all that comes to mind right now

To be honest, Hunted : The Demon´s Forge is a nice game, but only if you will play at with your brother together. Trust me, I´ve played it with my best friend and we had so much fun.
Darksiders : You can say it is an God of War game with a pretty good story. I have never played, therefore I can´t say more
Titan Quest : Pretty much an Hack´n´Slay game, just like Diablo and all the other ones.
If you are looking forward to have some time spent together with your brother during gaming, then I would recommend Hunted : The Demon´s Forge

Thanks, this really helps! If it drops low enough I'll probably get 2 copies of Hunted, because that would be cool to do the co-op. If not I'll probably end up getting Titan Quest.

With the summer sale upon us, I thought I would give my super cool older brother a gift, and I need help deciding what to get him.
About a month ago he asked me if I knew of a game on Steam that "Is in a fantasy environment, sort of like Skyrim or Dragon Age, but has a more simple linear feel to it, especially in the combat, like Phantasy Star Online". I decided to go looking and asking for opinions.
EDIT: I have it narrowed down to 3 games, and if you have any opinions on the 3 it would be cool.
Hunted: The Demon's Forge- Seems to have the simple "pick ranged or hack and slash and you'll get some spells to go along with it" combat style that was found in PSO, and is very much in a fantasy setting. One con is it doesn't seem to have a rewarding loot system.
Darksiders: Perfect for the described setting and the right sort of linear story, really cool enemy design like PSO. Cons are that while the combat is hack and slash, it doesn't seem to be "click click die" like in a PSO. Once again, I don't think there's really much of an expansive loot system.
Titan Quest: You click to fight, it's a lot like torchlight, and there's a pretty expansive loot system it would seem. Some problems: Not quite "fantasy", more Diablo-like combat than PSO-like.
Thoughts?
