I'm about to buy Too Human

Was curious if anyone had any recommendations for any other ARPG's like this.

I'm mainly looking for RPGs with TONS of loot, and that are console exclusive.

Thanks!

Divinity 2 is a GREAT game, in my opinion, and has tons of loot. Blue Dragon, despite being cutesy is also another great RPG - though it's more jRPG than ARPG. Resonance of Fate is definitely a great ARPG too, with a mega-intensive customisation aspect. Clunky, but still very enjoyable, the Two Worlds titles. Phantasy Star Universe is also a spectacular game and though it's on the PC too, it plays much better on a gamepad. Kingdom Under Fire took a lot of flak, but I really enjoyed it. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is another, and not available on the PC.

since when is resonance of fate an ARPG? Laughing
still, it's a very unique RPG everyone should give a try, some cutscenes alone are worth it

i'd also recommend star ocean...it's kinda 1/2 ARPG, but it has shitloads of loot, an in-depth crafting system and blindsiding never gets old

Lets see....

Golden Axe got below a 4 outta 10 on IGN

I lost interest in Conan after reading the first sentence of the description "A single-player action game featuring over 20 weapons, over 100 unique combat moves and 24 missions."

That reads to me as, you'll beat it in less than a day and never pick it up.

Looking for REPLAY value I guess. That is where loot comes in IMO.

Given the basis on combat and style, I wouldn't have called it a "true" jRPG .. but yeah, it's not a "true" ARPG either... lol. I'd say it was a mix of both and a damned good one too Very Happy

I get around, lol, and I really love my 360 - so I'm always here checking up on info. As for Too Human, it has a FUCKTON of loot and yes, full SET armour and weapons.

http://www.giantbomb.com/guides/too-human-loot-guide/260/

I'm one of the rare few that thoroughly enjoyed Too Human, even if it did have a VERY odd control system, and I'm gutted beyond words that we'll never* see the rest of the trilogy SadSadSadSad

*there's been no official announcement since the original was launched, leading me to believe it has been shelved. There is simply NO information anywhere, not on the SK site (only speculation from fans) and not on any game news site.

Tales Of Vesperia, best RPG @ x360 in my book. Even tough it's a JRPG it has loot and it's a looong game.

Actually, Conan is INSANELY fun! Think of it as the poor man's God of War and you won't go far wrong, heh. Thoroughly enjoyable and very gory too. Also "Viking" is another great game, though I put that more into the God of War-clone category than RPG.

I quite enjoyed Too Human too. I really wish they would've kept the 4-player coop though. Would have made for a great game with buddies.

In that case you should check out NIER, it's a japanese ARPG available only on PS3/x360, a game that imho was very underrated.
And if replay value is what you want then that's the best game I can think of, as it has 4 (actually 5, but one of them is if you rush through the game, witch is what you DON'T do in a RPG, especially a story driven one) endings and with each playthrough you actually learn more about the world/characters/plot. Also, quite a lot of weapons/"augmentations" too.

Bladestorm is nice, though gets quite repetitive.

I agree to that. In Conan you have much more control over how you want to dispose of the enemy. GoW is more just a button mashing (although I love GoW as well). Combat in Conan is not so insanely fast but seems a bit more realistic than GoW.
