Kill The Past Series
Trilogy of Detective games by Suda51 and Grasshopper Interactive. Follows the story and narrative around the serial killer know as Kamui, as well as different detectives from the 24th Ward/25th Ward prescient Henious Crimes Unit investigation team, and the freelancer journalist private investigator Tokio Morishima. Immensely hallucinatory tale, portraying the industrial hellscape of the information age, as well the psychological wonderlands of each one of his strangers inhabitants, KTP stands as one of the most unique detective stories of all times.
Disco Elysium
Follows an amnesiac detective waking up wasted in the middle of a murder investigation, in which a massive conspiracy of political warfare unravels. Trough the voices in the depths of the psyche of our protagonist which represent different facets of your own psyche, it's up to you to solve the case, and unravel your own identity, while deciding the fate of the wasteland in which this tale takes place. Very dream like, immensely evocative, and full of introspection. Traverse the land of Revachol in this hardboiled epic meeting all sorts of extremist strangers, and uncovering all sorts of wonders of the world you partake in, and your own mind.
The Coffin of Andy and Leyley
Part Visual Novel, part adventure puzzle game, stands this gothic romance about a pair of siblings that, after being left stranded in a organ harvesting scheme, decide to go against the tide of death together, not without making a pact with the underworld that changes their fate forever. In this incestuous picturesque tale reminiscent of John Vasquez Zim's show, explore an unknown cynical world full of occultism, cynical inhabitants, and strange creatures. Full of dark humor, intense emotional moments, symbolism, and dream-like settings, this fairly recent work stands as one of the highlights of the present decade, standing as the culmination of the body of work of her author as her most ambitious project yet.

Honorable mentions:

• Kyle Hyde Duology
• Max Payne Duology
• Deadly Premonition
• The Evil Within
• Dead Rising (2006)
• Ace Attorney Series
• Megaman Starforce 1&3

Andy and Leyley is game with extremely positive feedback. I have yet to play that one, but heard a lot of goo stuff about it.

It's excellent indeed. Nemlei other novels are also worth checking out, specially:

• Better Half - In an underground dystopia with rouge mages, meet Thiu, a NEET outcast with suicidal tendencies looking for an out from his sad life. After deciding to attend to the dark arts, an spell split him in half, in the hope that he can get away from his most darkest feelings. The problem? He wake up to realize that he inherited all of his worst feelings, while his better half got the better ones. A hilarious tale of self loathing, as well as self realization, follow Thiu adventure that will determine if he will find joy along his better half, or in becoming one again.
• Divilethion - In some faraway Scandinavian fictional setting, the chaotic god Divilethion take upon his protection an obscure village in the middle of danger and nowhere, but not without a price... Meet Lynn, a high priest of the divilethion church in charge of undergoing the sacrifices for this relentless deity, that lives with his little brother. Everything goes well, until Lynn will have to decide if his love for his brother is greater than the adoration to his god.
• Jack in A Castle - A picture book style tale of mystery and romance ambiented in a fictional world with toys inhabitants. Marion Marionette set out to investigate what happened to the king of Toyboxian, which mysteriously dissapeared and was replaced by his jester right hand man Jack, only to find out the darkest secret of the wicked castle, and to determine the imminent fate that await to the kingdom.

The other works are also fine. You know? I'm starting to suspect that Nemlei herself have some occult background of sorts. Ritual, underworld creatures, and other magic stuff are very prominent in her works.

Diablo 2 is a fantastic game if you havent played it yet. They just revamped it last year.

I liked to play I didn't love. Love to me is something else entirely. I really liked playing Heroes of Might and Magic 1 and 2. Today there's even a remake called fheroes2!

That is one of the best games I liked and still like. Second best was Dark Reign the future of War and Rise of the Shadowhand. All 3 of these games had a map editor. I really liked making. In Dark Reign you could even edit units and buildings. Make your own game almost. Like I did with Evolution of Xenite Mod:

Perhaps on 3rd place was Midnight Club 2! It was the best racing game including online racing. Up to 8 players per room was always buzzy. Here my old channel:

Star Wars games were phenomenal, those 4 you listed definitely, played them all.

 

[taschr]

Morrowind was foundational for me in both gaming and esoteric weirdness, lots of Gnostic themes with the richest lore and world building.

One of my favorite in game books:

Some of us are older and had seen and placed a lot of games. What games did you love the best and are proud to have played? Here is list of my most beloved games:

Drakan: Order of the Flame
Damn, was waiting for second one to go to PC like 10 years but it never got on PC. F*ck you, Sony! Anyway, the first game had incredible story and worldbuilding. The dragon flying was real fun too. On it's time the game had impressive physics and inteligence of the enemies was beyond their time. When enemy wounded other enemy they started fighting each other. Also sometimes cuted limbs and bleeding to death occurred. Rynn was also compared with Lara Croft.

With little talent, and some updates the game can still run on modern computers, bro run it on win 11, me on win 10. Though there can be problems with starting the game. There is still community around this game, but multiplexer matches are rare. Editor was later released, but it has a lot of problems to overcome. Not worth it unless you really mean it.


Space Hawk
2D shooter where you have a ship and you need to get through environment filled with shooting enemies and moving objects. Ship is fragile and along with gravity, reversed under water, explosions are pushing you out of the way too. Game also has level editor, that I never managed to master. With DgVoodoo game works 100% on modern Windows.

And it has nice story of you fighting an alien invading Earth named Dr. Baad, who you follow through his ship, Earth and alternate dimension, until you finally face him head on...


Ricochet - The Lost Worlds
Because there is no better arcanoid ever released than this one. Controlled by mouse, futuristic design, great graphic as well as music, over 100 levels, editor, still online available database of hundreds of more levels. Lost worlds was second of three games but this one became the most well known and the most payed of the three. Editor is difficult, but included right in the game and if one has time and patience, it can be used well.

With DgVoodoo works 100% on modern systems.

Takatis - A tribute to Manfred Trenz
Last in this list (not that I don't have more games, but this is enough...) is Takatis, a shooter on scrolling screen, with nice graphic, must had been first game I saw with using 3D models directly, not pre-rendered graphic. On Hard the shooter turns quite difficult. The Ship is fragile. The game has really

With DgVoodoo works on modern systems, but unstable, occasionally crashes.

Just to honorably mention: AVP2 (released 2001), Hornado 2.0, Warcraft 3, StarKnights, Carnivores 1, 2 and community remakes, Atomic Bomberman

Maybe one More: Safari Biathlon Racer, Because, it's awesome. It was genial idea and very beautifully made.

Some titles for me include the God of war series, sniper elite, Bloodborn, tekken, street fighter, ninja garden, and others. But I'm most proud of beating Elden ring
