I've been itching to play Okami recently, but also just a game like it in general. You know, the third-person, rpg-elements, adventure kind?

Think...

Shadow of the Colossus
Okami
Legend of Zelda
Kingdom Hearts
Devil May Cry

Do any of you know any games like them? Any help would be much appreciated!

I'm playing Xenoblade Chronicles right now. At 3 times the Wii's internal resolution. With a PS3 controller. Japanese voice acting. It's a pretty cool game. Third person RPG with turn-based and action elements. Big world and lots of exploration.

try God of War
I like it in first glance

it's has RPG elements, third person, adventure, and puzzle

But I dislike God Of War 2, and still didn't try God of War 3 yet because I played it on my PC using emulator
(yeah! it's quite popular so it have sequels)

word of advice:
Main hero in God of War 2 is weaker than in God of War, so try play GOW 2 first before God of War it self to avoid disappointed feeling

Sengoku Musou? I'm stuck playing that right now...

What systems do you have?

An oldie, but a goody, give The Adventures of Alundra a go if you haven't played it already. It's a Zelda clone many consider to be as good if not more so. Vastly more difficult though, some of the puzzles are mind-bending. The plot is quite dark, but don't let that put you off. Oh and it has one of the greatest soundtracks of all time, if that tips the scales.

Alternatively, perhaps you'd like Bayonetta? Somewhat akin to DMC, but considerable more crazy. Only try this if you have a 360 though, as the PS3 version is pretty bad.

Don't listen to that brave console warrior. The game is exactly the same as 360 version if you download the patch, which fixes the load times.

You could also try Nier. It is definitely closer to an action adventure than a traditional RPG. Maybe also the Prince of Persia HD collection and Castlevania: Lords of Shadow.

No it isn't. The patch fixes some, though not all, of the framerate issues and makes it more playable, but it's still quite inferior to the 360 version all round (color damping, dips below 25fps and noticeable screen tearing). It's playable, but I wouldn't recommend it.

If you're willing to die a lot, Dark Souls.

Asuras · 2012-01-30, 22:11

Ah man. Sorry guys. Should've been more detailed I have an Xbox 360 and a PC that can probably handle any game out on the market today.

I also prefer non-turn-based combat, as well as 3D gameplay, not 2D.

I have played (and beaten) Dark Souls.

And thank you for all of you Recs!

FlavorOfLife · 2012-01-31, 03:41

The Fable series might suit you but start off with Fable 1 if you do. II and III has a few areas that are weak

Sides · 2012-01-31, 06:56

360 and PC, in that case try these:
Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning (demo is up on steam/origin and on xlive)
Nier
Bayonetta
Mass Effect series, maybe
Risen (you want the PC version)
Rise of the Argonauts
Too Human (only if you are desperate looking for something)
Magna Carta 2 (if you don't mind ... corean stuff)
Alpha Protocol
Two Worlds (and 2)
The Witcher (and 2)

Not sure if those count
Tales of Vesperia
Star Ocean: The Last Hope
Infinite Undiscovery

If you don't mind first person shooter with RPG elements, then you should try bioshock, think you can get a demo on steam, and any deus ex game, thief, too much to count
