Mixed genre of boomer+platformer doesn't equal RPG but this one hit my cache today. Oh, I'm a fan of both.

rutracker has a version,don't know if it is working tho
Edit:If you want i could download it and upload it on megaup or some other data site.
The RuTracker torrent has been dead for years. I seeded it for a little while for another Codex user sometime last year. You can also find it over at https://www.myabandonware.com/game/arcatera-the-dark-brotherhood-dt8 or https://www.old-games.com/download/9001/arcatera-the-dark-brotherhood, but Old-Games has really poor download speeds and people have reported some issues with the MyAbandonware release in the past (although I tested it and it seemed fine).

Was it here already?
I like that mobygames put in the list game of some one-man company. It's Finnish Postal for the Amiga.I started to look at other games by that company. Not an easy game to get. These certainly aren't on myabandonware.
p. metal.Damage: The Sadistic Butchering of Humanity
Damage is a violent game about the character Michael Modelcitizen. He was the perfect human who had everything but found out that it wasn’t enough, so he became crazy. You take control of Michael Modelcitizen and start the game with only a simple baseball bat inside his flat. Once outside you can walk around the huge city killing people (including old ladies and children), stealing better weapons and narcotics. By using different narcotics it is possible to enhance the strength of Michael’s body.
Watch out for the police and the military, they will try to stop you and don’t expect your baseball bat to make any impact on their equipment. If you are good enough maybe you will make it to the atom bomb in the end.

settlements looks like *my* kind of autism. fantasy monarch looks intriguing.. but it seems it has been abandoned despite the fact that it still has some teething issues going on
That intro theme is pretty rad, is that actually original for the game? Seems more effort than I usually see in freeware games. (assuming it was originally freeware)Now this isn't really an RPG, nor is it on Steam (or GoG, or itch, or anywhere else really... you can find a free download of it though) but it's pretty cool for being a DOS game made in 2000. It's a first person exploration-focused dungeon crawl. Very obscure, very cool. I may have posted this in this thread before and forgotten about it, I dunno. If I did, forgive the doublepost.
Obviously you randomly look through sites that catalog games. Is it really a mystery? I do that too but I rarely find any interesting RPGs for this thread, mostly shootan games.Don't even ask me how I find this shit because I don't know it myself.

Maybe you can dig further from here:The theme song of that game is a different recording though, there's differences in the voices and instruments, so it has to be a cover. The credits screen of the game says the music is by "Menestrels" but searching for that only gives me articles about medieval minstrels. It's a too generic name to be able to find a band with it. Searching for "Menestrels medieval band" and other variations didn't help much either. Maybe it was one of those smaller local bands that usually play at renfaires, and the dev knew them and had them record some music for him?
(from the links page on the archive.org version of desperabis.axxs.de; a students band, judging by the email address?)Interesse an der CD der Gruppe Menestrels (Ausschnitte sind in Desperabis zu hören, wenn ihr MUSIK.ZIP runtergeladen habt)?
Dann nehmt Kontakt mit Jan Schaper auf!
This is a cheaper game I probably haven't posted before, because it's been in my library before I started this Steam catalogue deep dive. It's a tactical RPG with turn based combat in a voxel world with partially destructible environments. Recommended, especially for the price.
