    SpellForce: Conquest of Eo - strategy RPG from Fantasy General 2 devs

    I feel like most used alchemist potion was giants drink and my favorite units were big melee with the free retaliate level up.

    KickStarter Jupiter Hell - DoomRL successor

    I think shotgun buff is targeting people who take shotgun into the reapers/arch reapers on Callisto mines Totally unnecessary for Europa onward though once you have a mastery skill

    Your favourite games from the dark age of pure shit (2005 - 2009)

    Company of Heroes 1 and Swat 4 ... Still better than their sequels today (other people's sequels in swat case). I love Wesnoth and Mount and Blade, but I'd rather date them from their 1.0 / warbrand date Getting into guilty pleasure territory Eye Toy : Play 2 Pre dated and blew everything...

    Incline Revisiting Old Games (Again)

    MDK, metal arms: glitch in the system, and Risk of rain 2 are the only TPS I've ever really enjoyed and I don't think metal arms will hold up if I ever replay it.

    Incline Revisiting Old Games (Again)

    Thinking about trying battles of norghan, finding old threads about is almost always "sounds interesting into everyone forgetting to actually try it 4 months later" For actual revisits I have been going through lumilines but I can't really score attack like I used too

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    People say that dialog choices aren't misleading but I haven't had as many problems telling since messing up the trial sequence of King's Quest when I couldn't tell if "take the sacrificial lamb approach" meant to confess or to throw your friend under the bus.

    Community RPG Codex 2023 GOTY - POLL IS CLOSED!

    The games I rated highest were hybrids that I would never consider eligible for an RPG poll on my own.

    Recommend a turn based, isometric/overhead, full party RPG for me

    My top recommendations Blackguards 1 (Great personality on the campaigns, the non d&d system freed me from wasting time maxing . Some of best companions in any limited scope rpg. Endgame combat a little too long though ) Gloomhaven digital (yes it's a boardgame but it's combat is better than...

    Incline eXoDOS v6 — It's coming!

    My experience of the amiga sound is that it backports the sound effects from SC2 into SC1 (which is an improvement) but the chemjendu snd illwrath specifically cause sound clipping and looping whenever they get a kill.

    Games with great, satisfying endings?

    Colony Wars : Slow lingering death ending Twisted Metal 2/ Head On / Black These are mostly "monkey's paw" endings but the better ones are funny and most of the player characters ARE bad people who deserve it anyway. Rollercoaster Tycoon - Get to end of year 4 everyone let's go of their...

    Arcade Racing

    I always had a soft spot for micro machines and the older top down Williams games (super off-road etc) that they were inspired by. The better micromachines were great with the environments with driving on a pool table, chemistry lab, or kitchen.
