Mount and BladeGot some cash itching to be burned, how good is the game? Any reviews?
You should have gotten it during the steam sale, silly.

Mercenaries was a great game with 3 factions :)He has a pretty broad description of what he wants, but GTA 2 isn't what he's looking for I think. Try to keep games to the last 3-5 years.
GTA2 had multiple factions
Yeah, but I'm afraid we might have scared this new poster off. :'(The newcomer is probably overwhelmed by how helpful this community is.
Please come back, we want to help.

Wow! Thanks, I just made an account on short notice, this forum is so friendly and to the point! Btw, I ment RPG's. I excluded STALKER and bethesda games because I already have those. :) I definitely WAS overwhelmed when I saw 2 pages as opposed to no replies or one if I'm lucky!Yay! New guy likes us! Stick around here and you won't regret it :)
Vampire: The masquerade bloodlines is an excellent pick too, if you get all unofficial patches. The previous game, Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption is a pretty decent, if drastically different, game, as well. Altough I'm not really sure if there are joinable factions in it.Bloodlines doesn't have any joinable factions. You just choose a clan at start (Malkavian is my favorite) and roll with it. It doesn't have any major impact on the story of the game. Insanity caused by being a Malkavian will result in funny dialogs though. I still rembember when my character started talking to a TV. Hilarious :D
This. This. This. This and uh... This.Yeah, but I'm afraid we might have scared this new poster off. :'(The newcomer is probably overwhelmed by how helpful this community is.

Oh, and try "Sid Meier's Pirates!" too!
Wha? It changes the missions you can take and the ending, so I'm pretty sure its a decent example, especialy with the unoficial patch fixing up broken questlines.Yes but it only changed the ending. You can pretty much experience every faction by replaying the game from one or two missions earlier.
Who can suggest any games or mods where you can pick which faction to join and you actually become a part of them, for example you are supplied with equipment and you look just like their grunts etc. etc.Well, don't play "Sid Meier's Pirates!" then :D
Gearhead 1 & 2 has joinable factions, and is free.

The story of Gearhead 2 tends to be influenced by which faction you join. The story is heavily influenced by which faction the game randomly generates as the Enemy faction (which can be most of the factions).
Warning: It won't play on Windows 7 computers, as far as I can tell. It's one of the few things I miss about my old computer.

I don't believe you. Mostly because it runs fine on my Win7 box. And my Linux box. Most trouble I ever had with the thing was it occasionally segfaulting during character creation. I forget which (or both) OS it did that on, though.

Gearhead 1 didn't run on my windows XP
I tried Gearhead 2, loved the character creation process.
It doesn't fit the criteria entirely, but "Depths of Peril" might interest you.
It's a hack and slash diablo clone, with it's greatest feature being covenants. You create a covenant, and you compete against the other covenants for control of Jorvik, a village.
There's a lot of interaction between the covenants and the player, as the covenants are run by NPCs who do all of the same things the player does (fight monsters, complete quests). You can adventure with the other convenants, form alliances and trade with them, or declare war and raid their bases.
It's an okay game on the whole. The graphics are ass, and the soundtrack is limited (I think there might only be one song in the entire game, I wasn't paying attention). Additionally, there are only four character classes. One of which, the mage (wizard?), is a tad gimped.
I personally love it, and play it almost entirely for the covenants.
Hey it worked! Thanks a lot :)

Yeah, it worked for me too! Thanks!
EDIT: To clarify, GH1 works. GH 2's creator says that GH 2 graphics mode won't work on Windows 7 64-bit, unless I can unlock some 32-bit compatibility mode (http://www.gearheadrpg.com/forum/index.php/topic,1545.0.html) (I can't).
EDIT2: However, "2d" mode works, and seems almost as good. Yay!
