And you can expect even more in the months to follow. We’ve pulled together a dozen of 2012’s standout RPG titles 2012 — the six best RPGs we’ve played already, and the six we’re looking forward to the most. This steady drip-feed of role-playing content guarantees we’ll never extricate ourselves from the shackles of our consoles and PCs. There’ll always be one more level to grind, one more super-boss to crush, one more piece of sweet loot to collect and equip. Ah well. It’s a grim burden, but somebody’s got to bear it.
