Can you recommend some rpgs with a really good story?

Well, they usually have complex characters. For example, in 'Dragon Age: Origins', each character has their own backstory, motives, and beliefs, which interact with the overall story. They also often have a well - built world. In 'Skyrim', the lore of the world is extensive, and the story is interwoven with the history and different factions of the land.

For a beginner, 'Stardew Valley' could be a great choice. Although it's more of a farming - simulation RPG, it has a charming story. You inherit your grandfather's old farm and as you build it up, you interact with the local villagers, form relationships, and uncover some small - town secrets. Another beginner - friendly RPG with a good story is 'Pokémon'. The basic story of becoming a Pokémon master, traveling across regions, and battling gym leaders is easy to follow and engaging. Plus, there are hundreds of Pokémon with their own lore.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is another one. Although it's more of a Western - themed open world game, it has a very engaging story. You follow the story of Arthur Morgan and his gang. The game's narrative is full of drama, loyalty, and betrayal, and the open world is beautifully crafted to support the story.

ELEX is an underrated rpg with a good story. It's set in a post - apocalyptic world where magic and technology co - exist. You play as Jax, who has to make difficult choices as he tries to find a way to save his people. The story is full of twists and turns and the world - building is quite interesting. Another one is 'Risen'. It has a story that takes place on a mysterious island full of secrets. You start as a shipwrecked sailor and gradually discover the island's mysteries, including ancient magic and powerful creatures.

The 'Dragon Quest VII' for PS1 has a really long story. It has a world - building aspect where you gradually unlock different regions and their stories. You go on a journey to restore the world which has been fragmented, and this involves a lot of exploration, battles, and interaction with various non - playable characters. 'Persona 2: Eternal Punishment' is also an RPG with a deep and long story. It deals with themes of the collective unconscious, rumors, and the fight against dark forces. The story is filled with twists and turns as you progress through the game.

One great Android RPG with an excellent story is 'Chrono Trigger'. It has a time - traveling storyline that is engaging and full of twists. The characters are well - developed and the plot takes you through different eras, from prehistoric times to the far future.

One great RPG with a good romance story is 'Dragon Age: Origins'. In this game, you can develop relationships with various characters, and the romances are well - written and add depth to the overall story. Another is 'The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt'. Geralt has several potential love interests, and the romances are intertwined with the main plot and side quests in a very engaging way. Also, 'Final Fantasy X' has a touching romance between Tidus and Yuna that is central to the game's emotional journey.

'Xenoblade Chronicles' is worth mentioning. It has a vast and epic story. You are in a world where two giant titans are frozen in time and the story unfolds as you explore this unique world. The combat system is engaging and the story is full of large - scale battles and political intrigue.

I'd suggest 'Genshin Impact'. Although it has in - app purchases, it can be played for free. It has a vast and immersive story set in the world of Teyvat. There are numerous characters each with their own backstories and quests that tie into the main story. The open - world exploration aspect also adds to the overall RPG experience. It's visually stunning and the voice - acting in different languages enhances the story - telling.

Persona 5. It has a modern - day setting with a unique story. You play as a group of high - school students who are also Phantom Thieves, stealing the hearts of corrupt adults. The story delves into themes of justice, identity, and adolescence. The game's visual style, music, and the way it presents the story, with its daily life segments and dungeon - crawling, make it a really engaging RPG with a great story.
