What is the most stereotypical fantasy RPG? (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for a single player game, first person or third person, but something more action or role-play oriented. Not particularly a fan of turn based combat

Imagine the most trash isekai. There is an Adventure’s Guild that posts quests on a board. You fight monsters, level up, get new skills, some of which are some real OP shit. you spend that money so you can stay at an inn, recruit powerful people for your party, buy new equipment, etc.

I want to go on quest to fight bandits, pick herbs, fight a dragon. There’s gotta be a dungeon of some kind. A “defeat the demon lord“ quest is not a dealbreaker, but I kind of just want something I can play as an adventure for a while. I want it to be the most stereotypical “Adventurer Game” ever.

P.S.

I’d prefer to not reinstall Skyrim for the upteenth time.

Gothic or if you want jank

I love the implication that Gothic is not jank here. It's a great RPG (the first two) partly due to being janky.

Nothing better than literally killing the unbreakable orc siege in G2 chapter 2 because they can't deal with sidesteps.

Maybe I should have said more jank. Two Worlds you can kill the final boss within the first few minutes of the game by having the villagers beat him to death.

Or stacking 30 traps on top of each other so when an enemy walks onto it they instantly die.

Or putting traps down in an enemys path and watching them hit every single one in a row.

Man i love how broken Two Worlds is.
