A game I recently started playing is ToME or Tales of Maj'Eyal. It is a roguelike singleplayer game.

It has been around since 2010, but it goes all the way back if we count its predecessors. It is also an open-source game.

As of this post:

  • There are already 3 expansions.
  • The 4th expansion is set to enter beta testing soon.
  • The 5th expansion is already being developed in parallel.

Give it a try, available in Linux, Windows, and OSX. (Also available via Steam.)

Check the official website for screenshots, videos, and more information!

A bit of history based on what I was able to find:

  • Originally named: Tales of Middle-Earth: The Fourth Age. Set 122 years after the fall of Sauron.
  • In 2010-11-21, the game setting was changed entirely into a new one. See: https://te4.org/news?page=27
  • Its predecessor was “Tales of Middle Earth”. See: https://www.t-o-m-e.net

...I loved the duke

JokeDeity ,

Ha ha, to each their own, for me it was one of the worst controllers I’ve ever used, and using the SC reminded me a lot of it and I also never could get comfortable with the trackpads regardless of how much I tried to force myself to use it in different genres of games. I’m glad you enjoyed them though! Maybe look for a larger controller if there more comfortable to you while you’re on your hunt.

@Ajo1322 Final Fantasy 7, technically. But if we're talking actual PS2 titles, Silent Hill 2. I remember watching the opening cutscene and then wondering why it was taking so long, not realizing that it had seamlessly transitioned to gameplay. Damn those graphics were good for the time.

We did Elder Scrolls tier lists on Discord so I figured I'd share my terrible opinion on here.

Honestly, Morrowind could probably drop down one slot, but I'm too nostalgic for it. I think each game does something different really well. I don't think there's a "best" TES game.

I got really... REALLY angry with Daggerfall.

Haven't played ESO or Redguard yet.

I thought about buying Baldur’s Gate 3, but instead, the kid and I started a fresh Ocarina of Time playthrough on the N64.

And who am I kidding? I wouldn’t have enough time to enjoy BG3 before Starfield, anyway.

Gotta get that screen back to 4:3 other Jesse. Definitely feeling the time crunch with 2 large games coming out so soon, but I guess they're not going anywhere when I have a chance to start. Just got through TotK too.
