 Like any ranked list, this one was difficult to create. First, the line defining RPGs has grown blurry over the years, encompassing more than turn-based battles and experience-driven leveling. Second, our staff is passionate about RPGs, and many arguments were had over various games’ inclusion and exclusion – not to mention the specific numbered placement. Where will your favorites fall? Probably not exactly where you think they should, but whether you agree with our choices or not, we hope that looking at these 100 amazing games is a fun way to reflect on this genre and its ability to produce unforgettable characters, moments, and stories. 100.

I'm less upset about Skyrim being number 1 than I am about it being 20 spots above Morrowind.
