The highly acclaimed PC-RPG The Dark Eye: Drakensang was awarded “best German game” and “best German RPG” amongst many others. Drakensang: The River of Time features all-new adventures in the medieval world of Aventuria, based on one of Europe’s favourite RPG systems: The Dark Eye.
The prequel’s story of Drakensang: The River of Time leads players to events that took place 23 years before the original Drakensang game’s events. As a young apprentice, players meet the young dwarf Forgrimm and many other recognisable characters.
Highly recommended to RPG lovers of Baldur's Gate series.

Another 3D "russian revival" of a 2D cult classic, Majesty 2 is a fast-paced RTS featuring indirect control over units: you place gold-ladden flags for heroes to pick up and attack/defend a target or explore/avoid an area. Core gameplay is simple and fast, but plan your building wisely, because enemies are everywhere and your tax collectors are frail creatures. Balance is not the game's forte and difficulty is a bit punishing at times, but resource files are pretty easy to cheat-mod...

Arcania: Gothic 4 is the fourth installment of the Gothic series, and the first one developed by a company other than Piranha Bytes; the game was developed by Spellbound.
War covers over the Southern Islands like a blood-drenched shroud and finally, and reaches the idyllic isle of Feshyr in the Southern Seas. The protagonist returns from an adventure to find his home town pillaged and looted. The aggressors’ ships - with an Eagle displayed on their billowing sails - escape over the horizon.

Disciples 3 is a turn-based strategy game in the vein of Heroes of Might & Magic V or King's Bounty.
The main feature that sets Disciples apart is that every unit in a hero's army does not represent a group, but is a single creature which can be healed or even resurrected between combats, and will transform into an upgraded version of itself as soon as it gains enough XP.
Rage of Mages II merges the elements of role-playing and real-time strategy. Recruit stalwart allies, gather powerful weapons, and wield awesome magic as you complete important quests and train your character. You must seek out the source of an undead menace that is terrorizing the land and obtain an ancient artifact of immense power to stop the evil onslaught.
The Prince will be able to fight multiple enemies in one battle, up to 50 at once. An important part of the combat is "crowd control" and evading enemies, as well as combos. There is no blocking and there are no quick time events in the game.
Diablo II is an RPG from Blizzard, sequel to classic smash hit Diablo. You play as one of seven classes, and must complete a series of quests, culminating in the destruction of Diablo, the lord of terror, his brothers, and a couple thousand demonic minions along the way.
