  • ADOM -- It's the best roguelike in existence. It's also one of the few roguelikes that actually has a plot(nonlinear, too.) It's worth playing even if you don't like roguelikes, just turn the permadeath option off in the options.

been meaning to pick up this codex favourite for a long time

ugh; still 18 NZ pesos on both GOG and steam

and GOG has a huge fuck off sale too and its not even on it

might have to bite the bullet on this one and grab it on payday

Fallout Tales of Two Wastelands (Fallout 3+NV)
Baldur's Gate Trilogy (BG1+2)
TEKKEN 7

I here and then redownload Dark Souls 2 and 3 and see how online is going, but 3 is just gank fest central, and 2 is very sparsely populated in the low level areas. Also, fuck Bandai for seperating the DS1 community with this garbage remaster.

Where one can weep in peace
Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Divinity: Original Sin 2
Doom 1+2
Thief trilogy
Fallout 1+2
Gothic 1+2
Half Life 1

If not exclusively RPG's.

If RPG's can add MM 3-5, Gold Box, Deus Ex(yeah it's RPG so fuck it)

Yeah I cheated by grouping, but fuck it too...when I play one in the same series(meaning same mechanics, style, art direction), then I always play the others too as they are more like expansions or a contiguous whole.

Could add all manner of wargames and strategy as you are never really 'finished' with those, but I assume this is more about the kinds of games with a set beginning and end.
