An open-world action-RPG set in a fantasy universe, this third-person game immediately evokes thoughts of both Oblivion and the aforementioned Two Worlds. It sports a massive gameworld stuffed full of NPCs and monsters, and choice plays a huge role in your overall experience.

For example, you wake up on a beach at the beginning of the game with the remains of your wrecked ship scattered all around you. As you pick up a club, you spot a woman lying nearby. Who is she? Will you help her? You can choose to give her a hand and get to know her, and perhaps she'll end up helping you out down the road. Alternatively, you can leave her and stay solo she might reappear as someone else's ally and be working against you. Of course, you can also opt to just kill her before you even leave the beach. Murderer.
