    Diablo 2, Planescape Torment. I'd play Ultima 7 before Underworld. There is still features ultima 7 had that haven't been surpassed in any other crpg, like their npc schedules. https://exult.sourceforge.io/

    Deus Ex Remastered

    The remaster of Baldur's Gate is great. I just beat BG1 (again) with it! It also supports mods that we made 20 years ago which is fantastic. Helps that it's 2d and the art work is good, so to upscale from the 17" 640x480 CRT (or whatever) I played it on in 2000 to the 34" ultrawide I have now...

    Imagine being on the board of directors in EA and driving the company into the dirt for years only to get a huge payday because the saudis need somewhere to stash money and like FIFA

    LitRPG

    I was pondering this question recently: In LITRPG one of the most common stories is earth introduction to a gamified system. Ex: Primal Hunter, Defiance of the Fall, etc. Are there any actual RPGs that attempt this? It'd be interesting to play a generative game survival/crafting/building game...

    I loved Outward 1 and look forward to playing Outward 2 when it releases in *checks release date* Q4 2028.

    I love this art style. I've never seen anything like it and bet it'd be really easy to reproduce with some oaint and bedazzling.

    I'm assuming this is less about using AutoHotKeyNet and more about unattended and automated gameplay.

    Matt Dinniman claims to have zero real plans and just throws out weird mechanics, abilities and items that he somehow keeps track of and then has the characters capitalize on, but I think he plans more than he admits.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I'm thinking about playing ER and starting fresh, but think I'll need something different from vanilla to get through the entire game + DLC. Anyone try these mods? Convergence, Reforged and Hack 'n' Slash. https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/3419?tab=description...

    Kingshot and other Base Building + Strategy Games

    Yeah, problem with Kingshot and krakens is that you still need to put in a lot of work over extended periods. Even if you just logged in once a week to dump $5000 in, if you wanted to impact the KvK event you'd need to put 3 to 6 hours on a Saturday. That's a big ask for someone with no...

    I can also highly recommend Mother of Learning. Speaking of time loop litrpg, after finishing Unbound 2: Silence (Which I enjoyed), I started Reborn: Apocalypse and am finishing it now. I really like the premise of Reborn: Apocalypse, Reborn: Apocalypse makes me kind of want to read either...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Brother I played ER at release and enjoyed all the broken ass cheese builds from the frost stomp axe to the blood slinging katana whatever and I can tell you that a few minutes of those builds gave me lactose intolerance there was so much cheese.

    Kingshot and other Base Building + Strategy Games

    Finally quit this game after doing my third SvS event, which we won and got our third star for. This is the first and almost certainly last unashamedly p2w game I'll ever play. As a low spender I still played near-optimally for months and even botted the menial tasks 24/7 while being very...

    That's funny, I'm the opposite. When i read text I'm scanning the info looking for relevant information. Like reading a build guide for a game trying to figure out the way they are synergizing for critical hits or reading a stack over flow post about how they are getting the damn thing to...

    The authored has alluded to a bunch of different ways to achieve a victory condition. Awakening all the AI monsters that run the entire civilization and creating a sort of system reset is the most probable one.

    Totally true, which is why i mentioned count of monte cristo since the author started dragging those releases out too, by the time the book finished I was just ready for rocks to fall and kill everyone. But we, as fans of litrpg kind of deserve it. Complaining about Primal Hunter never ending...

    It's no longer like that, were those authors changing their titles and book pics or something? Or did they AI slop a bunch of books together as a joke? I don't get it.

    For better or worse, this is pretty common for this entire genre. I use audible for all these books but just about every litrpg I'm reading is released like Count of Monte Cristo on Royal Road or Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/dinniman I'm kind of glad it's like this because if an author's...
