    Dragon Age Inquisition is the most fun I've had in a game for years. There is nothing that annoys me about this game. Even the seemingly tedious 'collect x' quests are fun because it allows you to explore this beautiful world. There are so many companions which makes for versatile combinations, and their characters are pretty fleshed-out for the most part. I love that my Knight Enchanter can blow stuff up from afar and then close in and whap things with an energy sword. The story is interesting since it interweaves the politics of the regions with magical lore. This was very worthy of GOTY 2014.

    Dragon Age Origins is both oldschool and fun and the companions make me laugh.

    Distant Worlds.

    It's so vast with settings that let you have over 1000 stars in a game, and lets you be a galactic empire, but unlike most entries in the genre, you can explicitly enslave or genocide subject races and stuff like that.

    Crafting in Vagrant Story is so satisfactory.

    Been playing Tales of Xillia recently as well. It is a very good game. The combat is slightly hectic, but the story and character development is gripping, to say the least.

    Dragon Quest VI plays as well as all the previous games, and it also has a very interesting plot that's really keeping me involved

    Legend of Heroes: Trails of cold steel- One of the best Jrpgs I've played in a long time. Gameplay is a mix of persona, golden era final fantasy and tales. The story is a similar setting to Type 0, except there is actual character development and the story travels at a good pace without feeling convoluted. Tons of things to do outside of the story, lots of places to explore and there are mini-games like cooking, fishing, card games along with optional quests...etc I just got up to chapter 2 and I'm already almost 30hrs in.

    Pokemon super mystery dungeon- One of the most charming mystery dungeon series yet, colourful and gorgeous visuals, over 700 pokemon to recruit on your team and play as and challenging gameplay that can get really tough sometimes, lots of strategy involved! Love it!!

    Skyrim. It's huge and vast and I've got about 145 mods installed and it's so pretty and there's SO MUCH of it.

    How much of that is good is something different people argue about, but in my eyes it's great. I really like this game.

    I'm playing Chrono Trigger. I don't really feel I need to say anymore. I'm also playing Front Mission 3 which has some good mecha combat with a good story and interesting cast of misfits.
