Trying to hit landmarks of major genres:
- Super Mario Bros
- Baldur's Gate
- Starcraft
- Civilization
- World of Warcraft
Other strong contenders: Ocarina of Time, The Sims, Goldeneye, Halo, Morrowind, Knights of the Old Republic.
I wouldn't be surprised if this has something to do with SWTOR in one way or another. They seem intent on keeping the game alive and the last 2 expansions were heavily focused on storylines and single player content (the first one was downright marketed as a return to "BioWare-style cinematic...
I was wondering about this myself as it feels strange to give away the 2nd game of a trilogy. But when you consider how different 2 and 3 are from 1, it becomes a bit more logical. The first ME has always been the black sheep of the family for a variety of reasons, both good and bad, and I...
Stellaris. The only other Paradox game I tried is Crusader Kings II and I couldn't get into it as it seemed too daunting. I bought Stellaris because I had been wanting a "space" strategy game for a long while and the other recent contenders didn't do it for me.
I'm really loving the game so...
I'm excited for the lore and setting. I hated WoD for it's time-traveling and alternate universe shenanigans. I expect it will feel good to go back to Azeroth, especially to a place that was loosely featured in the RTS games but so far ignored in WoW. By all accounts the story is also moving...
It makes me sad to see the series go in such a way. I played Fable:TLC as an afterthought on PC and didn't expect much from it because of all the bad press it got with Molyneux. Objectively speaking I don't think it holds much of a candle against the other big RPGs of the time, but I just love...
I admitedly barely played Sword Coast at all, but it's still somewhat on my to-play list. Like many others I was intrigued by what initially appeared to be a cross between Baldur's Gate and Neverwinter Nights, which is frankly something that I've always wanted but fear I'll never see. The game's...
It's a common problem with large RPGs in my opinion. I've experienced this with The Witcher 2 recently after trying to continue a 3 years old save before moving on to Witcher 3. I ended up just starting a new game. I find that it takes a lot of effort to sift through quest logs and inventories...
My very casual take on it is that it's a fun game to fire up once in a while for a quick Star Wars fix. I don't normally play shooters so I'm oblivious to how it compares to other modern ones. Visuals and audio are really great. Gameplay is pretty smooth and I found it simple to get into even as...
I would probably go with World of Warcraft. There are many other favourites of mine that would be fun to play for the first time again, like the Baldur's Gate series and Morrowind, but I find that I can still enjoy these nowadays even after dozens of playthrough. Playing WoW for the first time...
Starcraft II for me. I don't play it as much as I used to, but I never got over silver league in either 1v1 or coop with friends (save for a brief stint in gold shortly after the original game's release, probably owing to having played the beta a bit).
I like to think that I was pretty good...
World of Warcraft is the only one that readily comes to mind. I've tried most mainstream MMOs that came out since WoW but they never quite cut it. Or rather, I feel like if I were to spend money on an MMO, spending it on anything else but WoW would feel like a waste. I think WoW is by far the...
I was surprised when he said that build didn't run on the Aurora engine, this version looks much more like Neverwinter Nights than the retail Witcher. I'm curious to see the second part and hear him talk about the engines.
I agree. Seeing NWN in that list was a bit of a surprise since it's not isometric in the classic sense of the word. As a huge fan of NWN though, I'm always happy to see the game get some coverage (it's too often overlooked in these discussions) so it didn't bother me that much. But calling the...
I was really happy with the recent Star Wars releases but they're still missing a few important games. Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy are obvious ones, but I'd also like to see Shadows of the Empire. If they got around releasing Dark Forces, Rogue Squadron and Rebellion, I don't see why they...
