In Norse mythology, the titular Eitr is a deadly poison that's produced by the serpent Jormungadr. In the world of Eitr, the deadly substance is corrupting the world and has infected the tree Yggdrasil. The Shield Maiden is immune to Eitr, so she is the only one who can save the world. If she can't find a solution, she is doomed to watch the world die.
If you've played Dark Souls, the gameplay in Eitr will feel familiar. While it is an isometric action RPG, Eitr strives for the same feel in its combat. The Shield Maiden controls similarly to a Souls protagonist, with block, dodge, parry and swing moves. You even need to manage stamina to make sure you can attack and dodge.
Twinfinite: “With 2022 coming to a close, here are the games that we really hope to see come to fruition in 2023. Let's get into it!”
I'm pretty sure Eitr is cancelled from what it said on their steam page, I was really looking forward to that one.
This is the year we finally see PS3's Rockstar game: Agent.
Follow that up with the amazing WiLD. Can't wait.
To top it all off, Star Citizen will be complete.
Dude, WiLD fading into vaporware sucked, it was such a "my type of game" i hope it still comes out eventually, but i doubt it

Hellpoint and Dungeonhaven are both new to me and look promising. Silksong will be brilliant no doubt.
Best genre in gaming imo.
Wtf is up with twinfinites perpetual add that follows you everywhere. I closed it 7 times and it just kept coming back. I only got halfway through the list before I decided fuck this site for real.
BacklogCritic: "There are many games with RPG elements such as experience points, levels, quests, dialogue trees or wheels, but offering the same solutions and the same outcomes no matter how personalised the characters may seem, which makes them cosmetic RPGs. Here is our top 10 RPGs of all time"
No Skyrim? No Fallout 3/4? No Mass Effect? No Dragon Age? No Dark Souls? No Final Fantasy? Meh
Too many old games nobody plays! This list sucks...
Fallout 3 & 4 are pale shadows compared to Fallout New Vegas. Skyrim is good but Morrowind is still the gold standard of elder scrolls games. The others probably should have been on the list in some form.
Old games rock. No Day 1 patches or DLC. No Micro-transactions or Loot Boxes. Games worked at launch instead of being incomplete. you seriously need to go and play some of the masterpieces from the past. Start with Chrono Trigger. You'll thank me later.
What about Shadowrun? SNES, amazing RPG. Genesis had a version that was a completely different story and also amazing.
I loved Shadowrun so much. Never played the Genesis version but I did try the new Shadowrun Returns. It rocked!
Are you joking? Baldurs gate 2 is much better than dragon age, mass effect doesn’t hold a candle to something like Deus Ex and Skyrim isn’t even the best in its own series.
Apart from NV on top and Arx Fatalis in the list, I pretty much agree with it. Good games, in depth systems worthy of being called RPGs. Full blown RPGs.
It'd be a tough choice honestly. Deus Ex is an extremely good contender with Witcher 3 following close behind. When you boil it down to the top 3, it'll definitely be Deus Ex Witcher 3 and Divinity Original Sin 2.
There are no good rpgs so far. I mean, really good. The genre still has to get a masterpiece (like action adventures e.g.). The closest one so far is Witcher 3, but still so far to go.
