Moreover, a unique crafting aspect of the game allows players to create lethal weapons.
Final Fantasy XI is a must try for all players who love any of the prior Final Fantasy games or anime RPGs with an in-depth storyline.
Gothic 3
Gothic 3 lets continue your adventure as the nameless hero of Khorinis and decide which side to side with - King Rhobar and his last troop of followers or the despicable Hashishin who has sided with the orcs that are causing chaos across Myrtana. The game, like the two before it, are driven by its story and the path of its narrative is largely driven by the players' own choices. The world is as open as ever and you can meet and interact with a host of interesting characters. The game even has a class-free character development system that is admittedly increasingly rare in recent days.That said, Gothic 3 may be fun back in the day, but the game hasn't managed to hold up the passing of time unfortunately. Due to this, if you do plan on getting this game, you might want to consider getting some mods.
