I figure I can probably beat one of the following RPGs in time for Elden Ring. Currently replaying BoTW and playing Dark Souls 3 for my first time. I like taking breaks from Dark Souls 3 so was looking for something to fill my time until February 25th. All 3 of the first titles are on GamePass so readily available. I already own the 4th. I realize Skyward Sword isn't really an RPG but I decided to lump them together.
Yakuza: Like A Dragon - I beat Yakuza 0 and had a great time, primarily due to the story and wacky side quests. Wasn't a huge fan of the combat, which is why the turn based nature of Yakuza LAD is appealing to me. Yakuza 0 is the only Yakuza title I've played but it is probably in my top 3 when it comes to story. Phenomenal.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition - Never played any of the titles but have only heard amazing things about this one. No idea on their playtimes and whether getting through all 3 by the time Elden Rings comes out is feasible.
Dragon Quest XI - Started this game a while ago but only put like 1-2 hours into it. Got distracted and never managed to get back to it. Seemed a little generic but I don't think that's really a far criticism given I barely scratched the surface. This game has been on GamePass for what seems like forever so my only concern is that this might leave soon. I would like to play it before it does.
Zelda: Skyward Sword HD - Picked this up on sale shortly after getting my OLED Switch but haven't gotten around to it. I think this might be the only Zelda console release I haven't played. I've heard it has some RPG elements which is appealing to me.
