I don't really look back after I finish a game, nor do I play more than 2 games concurrently. I do have a list of games I'd like to replay in some hazy, ideal future though. Here are 5 of them:

Devil May Cry 3
Rayman Origins
God Hand
Thief
Mark of the Ninja

 

[SoupNazi]

By far:
-Deus Ex: Invisible War

[d1r]

Always dropped halfway:
-Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines

That's the curse of Bloodlines. That game deserved a better pacing at the end. Wish there was a competent dev team out there who would remake this game (or at least the second half of it) in the spirit of Troika Games.

 

[Mysterious Stranger]

Jagged Alliance 2
Dark Omen
Battle Brothers
Fallout 2
Starcraft

 

[index.php]

Civilization II
Master of Orion/Remnants of the Precursors
Star Ruler 2
OpenRCT2
OpenXcom

 

[Ahnx]

Deus Ex
Fallout 2
Arcanum
Gold Box series
Tron 2.0

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Thief
Thief II
Half-Life

Can't even think of another two to fulfill the criteria.

 

[Morenatsu.]

half-life
sin
unreal
quake
spiral knights

 

[Space Satan]

RimWorld
Oxygen Not Included
Hearts of Iron IV
Total War: Warhammer
Battle brothers

- The Resident Evil from 1 to 4 (including 0 and Veronica), I like to replay them periodicaly. It's only very recently that came to me the desire to "speedrun" them to unlock everything. Now I feel like I should do it with the Metroids too. And speaking about that...
- The Metroids from the GBA + AM2R.
- The Streets of Rage (Remake in particular), but since the 4th came out I didn't replay the other ones. I still have to finish it in mania with every character. Maybe one day I'll look at the scoring?
- Ico and Shadow of the Collossus. It comes to me sometimes, the need to replay them for no particular reason. Ico in particular, because it's short and cozy...
- But not as cozy as HOMM 3 and 5, with friends. Just chilling playing coop VS computers.

 

[Silva]

1. a soulsborne game
2. a strategy, like Alpha Centauri or KoDP
3. a good tactics, like XCom or Into the Breach
4. some tense shit, like STALKER or Darkwood
5. a multiplayer to de-stress, like FIFA, Rainbow 6: Siege or Overwatch

 

[Tiger]

Banished
EUIV
Everquest
Rimworld
Minecraft (No, not vanilla. I play an ultra hardcore autism pack called Gregtech New Horizons, full of ore/chemical processing. Takes many months to get through)

 

[Marquis de Lirium]

Wish there was a competent dev team out there

Yes.

 

[King Crispy]

Unreal Tournament.

Because I'm so good at it.

 

[anvi]

Banished
EUIV
Everquest
Rimworld
Minecraft (No, not vanilla. I play an ultra hardcore autism pack called Gregtech New Horizons, full of ore/chemical processing. Takes many months to get through)

Yours was the best list.

 

[anvi]

Unreal Tournament.

Because I'm so good at it.

That game is so damn good. I played 2k4 the most, wish they would develop the series properly.

 

[Invictus]

Always dropped halfway:
-Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines

That's the curse of Bloodlines. That game deserved a better pacing at the end. Wish there was a competent dev team out there who would remake this game (or at least the second half of it) in the spirit of Troika Games.

Let it always remain the flawed gem it will always be in our minds and hearts... you can’t catch lightning in a bottle twice

 

[Naraya]

Quake
Heroes of Might & Magic 3
Tetris
Oblivion
WoW (I play private servers from time to time)

 

[Great Deceiver]

HoMM 3 (truly the forever game)
DooM (endless quality WADs)
Might and Magic 6
Dota 2 (I think I'm past my addiction after 10 years, only played a couple times over the past 6 months and am now able to go many months without playing at all)
Black Tiger (old arcade game from my childhood, I can still finish it on 1 credit and it just makes me feel good)

edit: I should probably add DCSS - my favourite roguelike. I come back to it from time to time to check new additions etc. It's not as involved or as complex as ADOM but it plays faster for me, so I prefer it.

 

[Abu Antar]

Championship Manager 01/02 is probably my most played game of all time.

Arcanum, Final Fantasy Tactics and and Pinball Dreams are probably the ones that come after.

I boot these up several times, or at least a few times every year. Tetris was one of those games, on my Game Boy Pocket, but it's being played less and less. I had rechargeable batteries that lasted for over a decade, but they're dying. I'll probably not get new ones. The charger is also old, and not in its best state that it has been in.
