Planescape: Torment
1999 · RPG · PC / Steam
Planescape: Torment is one of the finest written RPGs ever made, a game that treats its medium as literature and pulls it off. Its combat drags and its systems can feel opaque, but the writing is so sharp and the world so strange that those problems shrink against everything else. If you want a game that asks hard questions and respects your intelligence enough to let you sit with the answers, this is it. Few RPGs have ever matched its ambition, and fewer still have delivered on it this completely.
