Can we have a thread about your favorite PC games that you just keep getting back to?

Can we have a thread about your favorite PC games that you just keep getting back to?

I recently reformatted my computer and am looking for recommendations. Not looking for anything specific, just want to play new games.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. specially with Call Of Chernobyl plus CoPWP.

Deus Ex, i have never played the multiplayer though.

...

Also this

I always get the itch for this game at least once a year. I fucking love the Crayven campaign and using the jaegers as scout/spotters for artillery.

Holla Forums has turned into a circlejerk competition of who most enjoys the shittiest old games. You all peddle the same horrible games too.

It's either Deus Ex/S.T.A.L.K.E.R. in every other goddamn thread or some obscure Japanese cringefest of a game.

Sincerely, end yourselves.

Holla Forums's poop

it's 4/v/ with a tenth of the posters, plus tard/pol/, bad porn, and slavs

we fucked up and didn't manage to retain any posters except for the absolute nigger rock bottom

thanks, Josh!

Favorite's too strong a word but definitely pretty dear.

Way to improve the board quality!

Yeah, but I posted

Which isn't old or a japanese cringefest.

I keep going back to the first Titanfall, which I got for like 10 dollarydoos with all the dlc included.
I know it's EA, but fuck me if it isn't fun
Used to play a lot of strike vector till the community abandoned it.
sequel when
Also I like how the anons complaining about board quality didn't post their games.

Xenonauts

Fuck you too

Tell us your favourite game then, you gigantic faggot

Diablo 2
Ultima 7
Necrovision
C&C Red Alert 2/Yuri's Revenge
Jedi Academy

Some of these might be on consoles, I don't know

Modern games aren't as bad as you autistic shitlords make them out to be.

Most people here simply try too hard to be the hipsters of the video game industry.

Time for some RTT

Save me from this RNG-based hell

Except they mostly are. I occasionally find a good game that's new, but then I'll play some random game on Holla Forums's need to play list, like deus ex, and get totally blown away.

All games are shit with few exceptions. I play older games out of limitations, not nostalgia.

Blown away by what? The terrible gameplay or terrible AI?

I played it for stealth personally. Non-lethal stealth in Deus Ex is order of magnitudes better than Non-lethal stealth in a modern game like Dishonored.

The sad thing is AI has gotten worse over the years. Much worse.

Do people still play Titanfall 1?


Bad Company 2 I sunk a ton of hours into, its sad that the playerbase is rather small, nobody played the Vietnam expansion, and the fact that the sequels despite being on Origin were played way more. Theres just something about the maps and the destructable environments which kept me hooked.
GTA Vice City and San Andreas are simple nowadays but I'll be damned if they arent fun, with or without cheats, and some games like Sleeping Dogs are worthy successors.
DOOM is probably the best games out there, if not for the fact that theres 20 years of usermade levels, total conversions and such, theres a reason people still play it to this day.

Active community and the devs fixed a lot of optimization issues. Gets better every year.

You lie, most Holla Forums threads arent even about old games or PC. And that's why Holla Forums sucks.

You forgot the cunts who still insist that Morrowind is good. I loved Morrowind as a kid but on replaying it I realised that by today's standards it is utter trash.

If Morrowind is trash then so is Arma 3

...

Morrowind is fucking shit. The only good Elder Scrolls game is Daggerfall.

The Typing of the Dead. It's fun as fuck, runs on everything and teaches you how to touchtype.

...

Nigel doesn't deserve to be in a post this shitty. Here's your (You)

If you haven't played Quake yet, you should. The level design is the fucking shit, especially later on.
It's also one of the two or so multiplayer games I play regularly.

Nigga get the fuck out of here. Levels get better as the game goes on.
Got me there. Same here.

I think you missread him

That gif is so gay

Sorry fam my vision sucks.

Its unique, theres no other game like it and its flaws are not a big enough detriment to compared to its good points.
Just like Arma 3 which has a plethora of major fucking issues, most not a detriment to the game due to its scope, depth and decent execution.

Prove me wrong shitters

Forged Alliance is the pinnicle of the RTS genre and an example of a true real time strategy game. You take that back.

do people actually get blown away by deus ex with all its half-baked mechanics, boxy level design, and retarded story

it has some neat ideas but the execution is the least graceful thing I've ever seen

Must be the sublime voice acting, user.

...

Leave and never come back
Next you'll be shitting on Thief


Majority of what I posted was RTT and FA has RTT elements even though its a full blown RTS, chill.

What's a game that I can just lose myself in?

A BOMB

S.T.A.L.K.E.R Skyrim

mount and blade is always gonna be good, until butterlord makes it obsolete
vanilla game is great
mods make it amazing
and then you realize how easy it is to actually mod the thing, so you just start doing your own shit

Got anything without guns?

I keep going back to Insurgency whenever I drop other vidya. I've got a nasty habit of dropping a lot of games halfway through though.
Kind of annoying to be honest.


I wonder who could be behind this post.

You're a fag
Morrowind

Guns just aren't fun in most video games. Bows and crossbows don't seem to fail the same way guns do because they're often secondary weapons, used at long-range.
Tried, honestly did nothing for me whatsoever because of how it can be absolutely min/maxed by merely playing a wizard. There's no point putting yourself in a melee or stealthy role when you can levitate around the room throwing paralyzing death balls and nicking all the treasure, if there is any. Enemies can't do anything to you because they lack the ability to counter your magic, there's no anti-magic spells they could throw at you so you fall to your death.

Your opinion is trash and so is your taste in vidya.
Go play Pathologic or the Void

old video games are garbage and you niggers are blinded by nostalgia

I spend a lot of time modding dawn of war 1, civ5, gmod, warband/napoleonic, etc. They are very malleable engines and it's easy to consistantly change them to meet whatever scenario you imagine and want to play. Be careful with combatibility issues. If you want to be certain things work you have to spend time looking over it yourself but its fun to learn. Dont try it if you aren't willing to learn why things aren't compatible. Afterwards it becomes mostly straitforward.
