10 Best Medieval Fantasy Games Ranked

Diablo 3 takes very different religious concepts than those that most are used to in video games and creates a game around them that focuses predominantly on the 12th to 13th century as is further explained in the books. The setting in Diablo 3 will have players going through areas that look like towns where peasants predominantly l


Another ending with the tarnished becoming Elden Lord, except this time with a curse. After completing the Dung Eater's side quests , you obtain the Mending Rune of The Fell Omen. If you mend this rune with the Elden Ring, you dispel a curse upon all people and future generations across the Lands Betw


When you, the Tarnished, enter the narrative, the now head of Volcano Manor, Tanith, has commenced systematically disposing of all Tarnished in The Lands Between, often feeding those deemed worthy enough to the now serpent demigod Lord Rykard of Blasphemy. She contracts you to finish off the last of your kind in order to ensure her husband will be accomplis


Despite having absolutely no dialogue, Goldmask is decidedly one of the more intriguing characters. He is an esoteric figure known for two things: Being a great scholar that follows the Golden Order (a fundamentalist philosophy that guides a set of holy "math magic" invocations)... as well as being a naked dude who points at tr


With the Erdtree Avatar variant, you could attempt mounted combat , but this only offers an advantage if you have a lot of room to move around. With a more cramped battlefield and due to the tracking on several of the Avatars' staff attacks, Torrent will be more of a hindrance than a he


Iron Fist Alexander is a bit less serious than many NPCs in the game, a much appreciated reprieve in a world rife with suffering and despair. He's a lovable but somewhat bumbling sort who manages to get himself stuck numerous times. Not to mention -- he is part of a race of walking, talking Living J

The serpent demigod hibernates beneath the fire and lava, whispering out to those who'd listen, promising them eternal life. Lord Rykard was entranced with the notion of becoming everlasting and all-powerful not only to merely avoid death but to pave the way for a new world order, one without the weakness of The Greater W


The return of death suggests a lot about the mist in the Duskborn ending. The Rune of the Death-Prince has a dramatic effect on the appearance of the Erdtree in Fia's deathly ending to Elden Ring . The Erdtree becomes pallid and barren and emanates the mysterious mist. In this way, it seems that the Death-Rune causes the Erdtree to die. This is a huge deal, as the Erdtree absorbs the souls of those touched by Grace, allowing them to live eternally. Thus, if the Erdtree dies, so too do the souls that live in it. This then suggests that the mist that emanates from the Erdtree is actually the dead souls that were once a part of the living Erdt


A tragic character from the get-go, Milicent's demeanor is a very somber one, as is her story. Comparatively, the side quest you will embark on to help her is most notably one of the most perilous in the game as you will be led far and out of the way to the mysterious Haligtree, a completely optional zone built not for the faint of he


A Plague Tale: Innocence creates a game that is fueled by historical fiction that has players in a medieval fantasy setting where the stakes are really high. The stakes are high as the player is in charge of taking care of a kid in an environment where everyone and everything wants to kill t


Though the game isn't the best, its setting is during the crusades as well as introduced an interesting world of historical assassins that helped in taking out evil to accompany that time period. The sci-fi backstory wasn't heavily developed but also introduced the larger story that would come in later ga


Ranni usurps the current higher powers of the land and plans to leave the Lands Between to those who inhabit it. Being guided by the moon and the stars, people have true free will for the first time in their lives. No clarity is given as to what the people will do with their newfound free will, but whatever it is, at least they are making those decisions for themselves. The world is finally broken out of the stalemate and the cycle of pain, and people's destinies are fully their


This boss will sometimes perform this attack over and over again, but the Scarlet Rot hazard doesn’t linger on the ground for very long , so you’re good to repeat the same dodging maneuver. The boss has an extensive recovery from this attack each time, affording you ample opportunity to punish it between mo


The comparison between fallen leaves and the mist is even made explicit by the cutscene’s narration. Like the other non- Duskborn Elden Ring endings where the player becomes Elden Ring maps Lord, the narrator states, " The fallen leaves tell a story " about how a Tarnished became Elden Lord " In our home. Across the Fog. The Lands Between ." However, the Age of the Duskborn ending is the only ending to intercut these two lines with " Our seed will look back upon us and recall ." This line emphasizes that the fallen leaves and fog represent death. Furthermore, it makes it explicit that the "seed" or future generations will only be able to remember the Tarnished through stories because the souls or "Remembrances" the Erdtree used to contain are now d
