Last thread was deleted by some cuck, and after reading the rules and seeing I broke none of them here's another. Go fuck yourself "ultramarine".

I want a game where I can put a lot of thought and effort into building my character(s). Something with a lot of viable archetypes. Preferably with decent gameplay as well. Offline would be preferable, I'm tired of PoE's shit.

Here's some games I've already played

>Path of Exile

I've played this extensively and I'm tired of the lack of major choices. Basically you pick your class, ascension, and skill. Based on those three choices you basically just fill out the ideal stat nodes and that's your build.

>Grim Dawn

I've never really gotten into this mainly because none of the skills I have tried 'feel' good but also because the choices feel even less than PoE. You choose a skill or combination of skills, get it, and get stat boost revolving around it. I simplified PoE a bit but PoE had a lot more opportunities for synergy to arise.

>NWN/D&D games in general

D&D progression is fine and all, but it certainly isn't the focus of the game and a lot of builds can be made shit by the content of the game/module you're playing.

>Battle Brothers

Progression is pretty simple, but the combination of permadeath and random stat talents on recruits make progression pretty fun for a few hours.

Pokemon. You've got team archetypes (hyper offense, bulky offense, balance, stall, weather abuse, spikestack) and then each individual Pokemon has their own variations (Sand Rush Sweeper Excadrill, Choice Scarf Excadrill, Mold Breaker Wallbreaker Excadrill, Mold Breaker Utility Excadrill, just to use an example).

You can either play any number of fangames (the main games don't have any difficulty so there's no point to actually building a competent team) like Pokemon Reborn, or you can play competitively online. There are free browser-based battle simulators like Pokemon Showdown where you can play a few test matches against randoms, re-build your team to patch up whatever holes you might have found, then go back at it.

>can't find a game with a complicated character design choices

stop playing Diablo clones

>DnD isn't the focus of DnD games

what nigger?

Play ToEE with Co8 patch it's better than Baldur's Gate when it comes to character/party design by miles. For example clerics can pick from about 12? gods, each granting a variety of perks along with alignment choices. Rangers can be dual wield or archer types, Wizards can pick schools of specialization and every class has a ton of feats. Not satisfied? Dual and multi class available.

Also older games like Arcanium and Daggerfall are chalked full of specializations before the console/mobile phone era destroyed the chance of having a game requiring thought.

I have and it's fucking glorious. To any third parties reading this, if you haven't done this do so.

It is, gameplay wise, the best D&D product available.

Realms Beyond is a game that looks to be going for ToEE's style in development, too.
