Non-RPGs you are extremely nostalgic about

[Lemming42]

MoHAA has the edge over CoD I think because it largely lets you move at your own pace, while CoD almost always makes you either wait for your teammates to catch up or does that dumb trick where enemies infinitely spawn until you advance to a certain trigger area which magically turns off the enemy tap and makes the next bit of the level's script play.

My favourite level in CoD was always the dam and it took me ages to realise that the reason it stands out is because it's basically just a MoHAA level.

Warcraft 3, Age of Empires 2, Age of Mythology, Max Payne, Hitman: Codename 47/Silent Assassin, CS 1.6
I don't really enjoy nostalgia though. The two times I tried revisiting nostalgic shit (Samurai Jack and Warcraft 3) it just wasn't as good as I remembered it, leading to a fairly unsatisfactory experience. Nostalgia is best left where it belongs, in the past.
That said I will often times listen to the OSTs of various games I'm nostalgic for.

Glad to see some more Hitman: Codename 47 love.
And that soundtrack...
Perfection.

otsego It's a janky, unpolished diamond, but a diamond nonetheless.

Replaying this

Recently played through this game, pretty alright. On-rails, just a slightly more interactive COD campaign.

My favourite level in CoD was always the dam and it took me ages to realise that the reason it stands out is because it's basically just a MoHAA level.

The original CoD was at heart a spritiual sucessor to MoH:AA until it decided to inmitate Halo by adding regenerative health and removing the pistol/sidearm slot to be more accesible to the console crowd though.

This one was a lot of fun, I really like The Summoning too which plays pretty much the same.

I loved Theme Park so much, to me there is no game like it, and no Rollercoaster Tycoon is not similar. I still play it from time to time alongside Theme Hospital.

It's the same for every Bullfrog game, there’s nothing like Magic Carpet, and Syndicate only got one clone. The Steam store is oversaturated, but with hardly any viable games bringing anything new.

Anyone remember a point & click adventure game set in Ancient Egypt?

Ankh?

Didn't see people mentioning these.

Anyone remember a point & click adventure game set in Ancient Egypt?

Was it the one called "Nile"? I remember buying a box of 3 adventure games and one was set in Egypt.

It wasn't this one but I like the nigger loli:

This was my dungeon keeper. Didn't quite liked it as much on a replay.


First two games are SOVL, third one is good too, fourth movie game taught me the meaning of word decline.


Would people believe me if told them that every case of my murdered sim was a honest accident?
I didn't think that using fireworks in the attic would cause a fiery death of my whole family.

 

[gooseman]

First two games are SOVL

I had the 2nd game on PC. It was weird to me how they made children go through deadly obstacle courses with literal bottomless pits and such. Is this how schools in Britain are?
Such schizo dissonant level design always delights me.

C'mon, don't tell me that as a kid you never dreamt of getting an invitation to Hogwarts where every single year some wild shit is happening like trolls invading girl's toilet, mudbloods getting petrified or giant spiders attacking students...
By the way, i recently learned that some people have made some custom levels, restored content and whatnot for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 2(PC).

trolls invading girl's toilet

J.K. Rowling really was on some prophetic shit with that one wasn't she

Barely anyone remembers this great game

<Hitman Codename 47>

The ending of C47 has always stuck with me, and despite the overall Jank of the first Hitman game, it's still my near-favourite (Nostalgia cannot beat Blood Money). The soundtrack from Jespyr Kid, the slowly forming Logo, the disturbing nature of killing all of your clone brothers and terminating the man who created you... love it.



Besides that, the non-rpg game I am most nostalgic about and wish I could relive again is Crusader. I play this several times a year and just wish there was more.

God bless you Origin.

Crusader is one of those games I was hoping to get a Kickstarter-revival.

I sometimes dip into its soundtrack when working.

Superb game; so of course Bethesda ripped it off.
