I'm looking for a game that covers all of the following:
And I would very much appreciate if the game is based on medieval fantasy but I'm open to anything.

Otherwise it fits for the most part...hmm I'll keep thinking of others (or I'll just browse through my Steam games)Take your time mate and thanks for the help!

It has some puzzles later on. Plus you can sort of consider the quests puzzles since you have to work out a lot for yourself, sort of like how in Morrowind you could gather info from various sources which would allow you to piece things in a quest together.
Edit: Also did you mean the first game or the second game? Because I was talking about the second.
Golden Fool said:That quests piecing sounds great and I will be putting these games on my to play list. But my main focus right now is finding a game that requires me to solve dungeon puzzles just like in the old Prince of Persia Sands of Time trilogy or the tombs in the rebooted Tomb Raider.Dragonborn2021 said: Damn the puzzles really threw me off...the only one I can think of is Divinity: Original Sin but I don't know for sure how puzzley it is later on.

From most recommended to least:
Mass Effect Trilogy (go through the trilogy chronologically, because you won't get the full experience otherwise)
Witcher Series (not just Witcher 3, all are amazing)
Dragon Age (preferrably Origins, but others are ok)
Divinity: Original Sin (1 and 2)
Detriot: Become Human (very odd for an RPG, but one of the best I've ever played)
Dragon's Dogma
Kingdoms Of Amalur: Reckoning
Bound By Flame (very underrated, imo)
Risen 3 (haven't played the others, but 3 was great)
All amazing games and I recommend even the ones at the bottom.
If you're looking for puzzles, Risen has the most, followed by Detroit (during the Connor sections), then Divinity and Witcher. I like Shadow Of The Colossus as a puzzle game, but it's not an RPG.

- single player RPG (I'd prefer it to be one in which you get to choose your race/gender/appearance/class but I'm ok with playing an estabilished character too)
- dungeon delving involving the need to solve lots of puzzles
- ranging from Indie to AAA (I don't care as long as it's not a cheap knock off of something else)
- difficulty: not hardcore (I only play for fun as a hobby)
- not requiring grinding and not containing micro transactions (just to clarify, I don't consider visiting all the extra vistas in witcher 3 a form of grinding)
- platform: PC (though I tend to chill by gaming with an xbox one controller)

Hmm, I'd say Persona, but that's pretty much Playstation exclusive. You COULD emulate the PS2 games. Persona 3 and 4 are pretty good, they have puzzles, but nothing insanely complex
I highly recommend Styx: Master of Shadows it was a nice change of pace for me back when I first played this one.
Also I can vouch for Dragon's Dogma, Divinity Original Sin and Dragon Age/Witcher series. Another one I played recently and had a lot of fun with was Kingdom Come: Deliverance it has heavy rpg elements but it might not fill some of the criteria in your list it is worth a shot nonetheless for its rpg experience. Also not sure if you are into this type of gameplay but Pathfinder is also a cool game ot get into but again it's battle playstyle is different.
