i really liked a game back from 1999 called darkstone. it's an action/rpg.

things i liked about it:

zoom in / zoom out
rotate camera
play as two characters at once. this was one of the best parts for me. i would usually play with a wizard as my main character and have a warrior as my secondary. i can split up the characters (one can stand guard) or they walk together and the secondary character will auto-attack. and at any time during the game, i can switch to the other character's perspective.

what games are similar? path of exile lacks the camera rotation and playing as two characters, so that's not an option. if darkstone had a good online community, i'd 100% play with those 18 year old graphics

i looked for a sequel and didn't find any, but i found it was remade for android/ios. just downloaded on my phone and i'm playing now. wish i could get into a good pc/console game. usually it's very difficult for me to get into a game, but if i do, i'll play it for years. darkstone and diablo2 are the two main games i liked.

preference would be pc game, but i'm open to consoles.

/edit: friend just suggested Final Fantasy XII. i'm looking through vids now.

I love Darkstone!



Summoner is a game you will love for life. Like Darkstone but way better.
Dungeon Siege would be a good one too.
Perhaps Neverwinter Night but that's more dnd action rpg mix.
Dragon Age would be like a Darkstone style.

I'll think of more later. Classic game bro!

They have Darkstone on pc if you want to keep playing it.

This isn't the same but a surprisingly fun rpg to play was LOTR The Third Age rpg.
