Nice, never played mordor but I still play demise, although unfortunately I haven't been able to get it to work since I reinstalled windows.
Never met anyone who even heard of these games before.

Best Sim game ever made. It taught me that no matter how hard I want to grow rice in the middle of the Arizona desert, some things were just not meant to be. A life changing experience that was.

I think one of the original Crash Bandicoot games. Mostly CTR or Warped.
Also, Spyro the Dragon, just for the soundtrack.

Yeah, I remember he was working on this recently, I used to check up on it occasionally but the last time I did was probably 2012 or so, maybe it's time for another look.

>>386654721
Fuck yeah, this game is amazing. Don't play the Crossfire mod for the extended campaign, If you like spending hours traveling from one system to another with enemies that will one shot you.

Vanilla game will always be amazing

I swear to god, my cousin and I played the FUCK out of this game in the late 1990s (as well as Age of Empires), and I still can't get enough of it. I don't know why, but I couldn't get into Civilization as much as Colonization.

Where my Silent Storm niggas at?

Xcom UFO defense.

Or more specifically, OpenXcom. Mostly with mods.
There's just such a tense atmosphere that the new games fail to capture. Taking a grenade off of your character's belt, priming it, then throwing it is a much more involved and immersive experience than just having a "grenade" button with a visible arc and explosion radius. You have to think about your environment and pay attention rather than just move to where your character has a shield icon so they have cover. You have a lot more troops because they are all expendable; there are no heroes in war.

You just need to pick a game that particularly bugs you while being revered by others, then force yourself to play it. Once you get used to it, it'll make things easier.
