This is a very good list.

I would certainly add Elden Ring, Planescape: Planescape Torment and Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines

Thank you!

I did follow a one game per franchise rule and to me Elden Souls is yes another Souls lol.
I think Elden Ring has the best side quests in the series but some of them felt rushed and kinda stupid like the one at Castle Morne, the ones in Dark Souls introduced me to a more memorable characters and it was at a time where i was new to the series so nostalgia could have been a factor.

I agree with the other two, Planescape and VTMB are very good, i just restricted myself to a Top 10 lol, because i believe the number 10 is catchy, its like a good marketing number :D

TOP 10 this Top 10 that.

After the DLC of Elden Ring, i will seriously consider replacing DS1 spot with it.

That's great, haha.

I really need to play some of those.

I played Original Sin 2, but my interest kinda fizzled out about 10 Hours in.

And I only played Suikoden 2 for a little bit and Baldurs Gate II not at all.

I played all the others extensively though
