4.1average player rating•5 games

New Vegas is loved for what it lets you do: talk your way out, take the other faction's side, break the quest in a way the writers anticipated. These respect the player the same way.

The picks

Ranked by player rating, Metacritic breaks ties.

1
Disco Elysium
AdventureRPGIndie
The dialogue-first RPG taken to its limit: no combat, and somehow the highest stakes.
4.4/5Player ratingMC91View game
2
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
ActionShooterAdventure
A wasteland that doesn't care about you — harsh, atmospheric, and utterly uninterested in guiding you.
4.3/5Player ratingMC82View game
3
Wasteland 3
RPGStrategy
The same moral grey zones and faction politics, played out in turn-based squad combat.
4.1/5Player ratingMC83View game
4
The Outer Worlds
ActionShooterAdventure
Made by many of the same people — same dry humour, same factions willing to let you betray them.
3.9/5Player ratingMC80View game
5
Fallout 4
ActionRPG
Weaker writing, stronger world — the wasteland to wander when you want exploration over dialogue.
