Must play PC games before you RIP?

[Cappuccino]

What are the MUST play video games before you die? I am so bored right now, nothing is good, I'm bored of Overwatch already and LoL went full retard for the last couple of patches. I want to relax and maybe play some MUST play single player video games? It doesn't have to be old games, it can be the new games. Anyone know any?

I don't mind if they are paid games. I will get them in the Steam summer sales :thumbsup:

Really appreciate it ()

Some of my favorites:

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines (with Wesp's fixes-only "basic" patch)
Star Wars KotOR 1-2
Planescape: Torment
Fallout 1-2-3-NV-4 (and Tactics wasn't bad)
Heroes of Might & Magic 2 - 3
King's Bounty - Crossworlds

 

[brianmanahan]

Heroes of Might & Magic 2 - 3

definitely the best 2!

Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor

agreed, shadow of mordor was a really fun game

Dragon Age Origins was great. The later games not so much IMO. Same for ME. First game was great, third game was the most disappointing, infuriating game I have ever played. Havent played the others, but do want to try the Wolfenstein games at some point.

 

[aigomorla]

dont starve together (especially with friends)

borderlands series.. well mostly 1 and 2.

dying light (with friends is also epic)

Farcry 3 ... 4 was a bit meh... and 2 was blah...

Saints row 3, 4 was bleh... and the ones which came after was just stupid.

The entire Final Fantasy Series...

 

[DigDog]

to me one of the most epic games to have ever existed was wipeout2097 (also known as wipeout XL), but it's kinda late to be playing a PS1 game. of the modern gaming era the games i've enjoyed the most are minecraft, FTL, the stalker series. also god of war 1 on ps2.

mass effect 1 was pretty cool, the others not so.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Pac-man

and Shadow of the Colossus.

Betrayal at Krondor was so good and then Return to Krondor was just so bad.

Zelda - Windwaker

 

[lupi]

Total Annihilation, Company of Heroes.

There's so many...

- Knights of the Old Republic (first and/or second one with its content mod)
- Mass Effect (first one)
- Dragon Age: Origins (+ expansion)
- Boderlands 2
- The Witcher III (+ expansions)
- Bioshock (first one) / Bioshock Infinite
- Elder Scrolls Morrowind / Skyrim
- Fallout 3 and/or 4 (maybe not "must finish", but definitely "must play")
- Half-Life 1 and 2 + Episodes (or play Black Mesa, it's HL1 on the Source engine)
- Quake (first one, play it with HD textures perhaps)
- StarCraft saga (now that it's "complete", I'd recommend that you play both the first game with Brood Wars, along with SC2 with its expansions)
- Dark Souls series (any or all of them)
- XCOM: Enemy Unknown and/or XCOM 2
- Tomb Raider (2013 reboot) and/or Rise of the Tomb Raider
- Dead Space (first one)

And so many others...

Download 'OpenXcom' (wrt 'original'), from what I've seen so far it's a lot more stable on modern equipment.

FYI, I think you still need some of the game data that comes from buying the original.
