The impossible quest to finish every CRPG in chronological order.
It's one thing to attempt to set out to play every single game in an entire genre. But to finish each one in the order they released and then to blog detailed accounts of them is a quest beyond belief. That's what Chester Bolingbroke, author of
It took him over two years to play through the games of 1992, from Wizardry: Crusaders of the Dark Savant to Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss . And also the games you won't remember, from Bandor: The Search for the Storm Giant King to Ultizurk II: The Shadow Master . That love led Chet to put together a working definition for what makes for a CRPG. It has to have character development, allowing you to get more powerful over the course of a game. Characters' stats should affect how well they fight, as opposed to pure player skill. And there has to be an inventory which allows you to choose items to use, wear, and wield. Along with the cardinal rule of no console games , these rules determine the list Chet has set for himself to play.
All these factors, which aren't exactly controversial, come together in a rating system Chet set up a couple of months after starting CRPG Addict, which kind of is. Named GIMLET after his favourite cocktail , it features 10 characteristics, which rate things like game world , economy , gameplay , and each contributes up to ten points to an overall 100-point scale.
