  • Old and hidden games that deserve more love

Ring Runner: Flight of the Sages, story that get better as you play, insane amount of ship/play style customization.

Masquerada: Songs and Shadows, good lore and excellent world building, "easy" and forgiving crpg.

Wirewalk()↳, a short and loving gameboy like rpg, less than 100 reviews.

  • Well known

Mass Effectâ„¢ Legendary Edition, no comments need, new historic low

Psychonauts 2, good game although it's "cheaper" on gamepass.

Everyone loves Baldur's gate3 and with good reason. But if you want a different love letter to the originals, I highly recommend pillars of eternity: https://store.steampowered.com/app/560130/Pillars_of_Eternity_II_Deadfire/

It's a big party based RPG with an original setting and system. Good story. Great characters. Many interesting classes. Sheds a lot of dnd-isms, but you can still see the heritage.

I like the second more than the first, but they're both good. The second switched to per-encounter powers instead of per-rest, so you don't need to camp or hit the inn nearly so often.

Also I really want them to make a third game. Maybe if more people buy it they will!

Pillars hit a steam sale when I got into Critical Role and there were additional sales during the pandemic (maybe in response to new customer volume) that convinced me to get the sequel. However, I’m sitting on ten durable 1060s (2/6 in use desktop, 3/4 laptop(m)) and just have them running video along with wutevs. Got one watering plants that can also give me a decent video stream under its own power, which is handy.
