Edit: holy shit I turn my head around for one second and I got 40 replies? THANK YOU ALL :D <3
I just rewatched Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight trilogy and following Bane’s and Miranda’s story made me realize that I’m a bit saturated in regards to playing as the hero, the protagonist, the “good guy” in PC games. While I love saving the world as much as the next person, I’d love to play as some perhaps self-righteous villain, or antagonist, or simply somebody portrayed in a way that’s meant to make the player sympathize with questionable morality or, at the very least, be conflicted about why you suddenly find yourself rooting for them.
I’m mostly looking for story driven open world single player games, but any recommendations are welcome. :)
Shocked to see no one’s suggested Tyranny yet which is an isometric RPG where you specifically play one of the bad guys. Yeah you can make some “good” decisions but ultimately, you’re a foot soldier for the bad guys. It’s got plenty of that conflict about what’s right and wrong that you’re looking for too!
I admire Tyranny from afar, but I think it’d depress me too much.
I thought so as well but it was pretty funand the plot lines are versatile.
You can enslave the younglings, you dont need to murder every one of them however delicious they may be.
Maybe I have gone soft. I should just turn up my GWAR collection and rock that funky chicken.
