Old School RPG (Role-Playing Game) Ideas & Concepts If you're looking to create, play, or discuss an old-school RPG, here are some key elements that define the genre: Classic Features of Old-School RPGs: Turn-Based Combat Strategic, grid-based, or menu-driven battles (e.g., Final Fantasy I-III, Dragon Quest). Pixel Art / ASCII Graphics Retro visuals (e.g., Ultima, Baldurs Gate, Dungeon Crawl). Party-Based Exploration Manage a group of heroes with unique classes (Fighter, Mage, Thief, Cleric). Grid-Based Dungeons First-person or top-down dungeon crawling (e.g., Wizardry, Might & Magic). Permadeath & High Difficulty Like Rogue or Nethack, where death is punishing. Text-Heavy Storytelling Minimal cutscenes, more reading (e.g., Planescape: Torment). Open-Ended Progression Non-linear quests, skill-based leveling (e.g., The Elder Scrolls: Arena). Popular Old-School RPGs: D&D-Inspired: Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale, Neverwinter Nights Japanese-Style (JRPG): Final Fantasy (I-VI), Dragon Quest (I-V), Chrono Trigger Roguelikes: ADOM, Angband, Caves of Qud Dungeon Crawlers: Eye of the Beholder, Legend of Grimrock Modern Games with Old-School Vibes: Octopath Traveler (HD-2D style) Divinity: Original Sin 2 (CRPG revival) Darkest Dungeon (hardcore turn-based) Stoneshard (roguelike RPG) Want to Make Your Own? Use RPG Maker (easy for JRPGs) Try Unity + Pixel Art for custom projects Playtable systems like OSR (Old School Revival) D&D (Labyrinth Lord, Dungeon Crawl Classics) Would you like recommendations based on a specific subgenre (JRPG, CRPG, roguelike)? Or are you designing your own?

Great raids, some bugs

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
