There's DDO, Neverwinter Nights 1/2 and that's about it for the past couple years.

Are there any more coming out or is this it?

Not that I've heard about, but if you happened to miss some of the old ones, the first six on this list sorted by best selling (http://www.gog.com/games/rpg) are all D&D, most are 2nd edition but at least two are 3.0 rules.

Edit: I just realized you missed the Neverwinter free-to-play MMO (https://register.perfectworld.com/nw_splash).

Neverwinter MMO is 4e.

He did miss ToEE, which caps at level 10, no PrC.

The most faithful 3.5 representations are ToEE (with Circle of 8 installed) and Knights of the Chalice. Truly turn-based, with rules for things like grappling and initiative and readying actions etc.

NWN2 is next, but it's technically real-time so a lot of things end up working differently.

Daggerdale, but I don't like this one.

Edit: I seem to have missed title and sub-forum while answering this ;)
Of course it's 4e, not 3.5

Daggerdale was also based on 4E.

I'm pretty sure WotC has no interest in licensing any more 3.x based computer games. There probably isn't going to be anything new at all until they finish 5th and everybody lines up to make a video game out of it.

There's Dungeon Robber. But that's based on like 1e.

Note that you an make video games of your own with the OGL. It's not easy to use the license but it's doable. (It is, however, impossible to make d20S video games.)

If you liked the 2e Icewind Dale there's a module/port of it for nwn2 so I guess that sort of counts.

Yeah, Temple of Elemental Evil is probably the closest match to playing an actual tabletop game. I like to take the most stereotypical minmaxed DnD party into the game when I play (spiked chain tripper, cleric and druidzilla, etc.).

Very much so. It has a lot of replay value IMHO.

A fan made patch removes the level cap (among many other changes), so you can get to about 12 or 13.

I haven't tried it yet, but apparently there is a user made conversion of Keep on the Borderlands that uses the ToEE engine.

Actually, with the newest content, you can get a bit higher, like 15 or so. I just finished it.

Icewind dale II is 3e or 3.5. It was quite enjoyable in a tactical sense.

I think Baldur's Gate 2 for the Playstation 2 was 3.5 based. I mean, it's an old game, but... :smalltongue:

Is there any plans to make a Pathfinder-based game anywhere ?

There was a FR PS2 game called Demonstone. Not a great game, but based on 3.5.

Is ToEE actually playable with Co8? I used to own a copy but it was kind of terrible. Even the cookie recipe at the back wasn't very good.

It won't be a digital version of the tabletop game like NWN is though. I'm not sure exactly how it will play out.

Yes. ToEE with Co8 is one of the best tactical CRPGs around.

Seconded.

The Co8 patch actually improves gameplay significantly from the stock standard game.They add what I deem to be a few annoying and unneccessary elements and changes, but on the whole it is a lot better. A couple of key battles play out far better when the enemies use the Co8 tactics rather than their standard ones.

For me, no other D&D based game I've played captures turn based combat better.
