Not a lot in all honesty. I'm too poor to afford new games and my 11-year-old PC can't run most of them anyway so I just buy older stuff on Steam or collect free games from the Epic or my Amazon Prime subscription

The Shadowrun games from the 2010s. After the abysmal TF2 clone, it was nice to see a return to RPG form with a trio of games that were well-written, fun to play, and knew how not to overstay their welcome (I'm looking at you Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3, and Baldur's Gate 3)

I think a Metroidvania by way of Blasphemous style game or a Dad of War clone would be fun for Conan or Red Sonja

A decade or so later I was able to get a copy of each for my small PS2 collection and 100% them as best I could.

I played Dark Cloud and Kinetica for the PS2 at a rich kid friend's house back in 2001. Kinetica's unique look of wheeled mech suits and F-Zero style racing has always stuck with me. Despite being a very basic RPG with some town building, Dark Cloud has always been one of my favourite PS2 games.

I rediscovered the Tubrographix 16 my grandfather bought when it was new in his basement one day still with water and sun-damaged box, poster and everything

Would love to see more old-school dungeon crawlers like the Wizardry series or some of the old D&D Gold Box games like Eye of the Beholder. There's something about having to physically map out a dungeon on graph paper as you explore that hasn't been matched since.

I think they're alright when done right. They can help bring newer fans to older series and make older games more accessible to audiences. I've played a few of the various remakes of the Final Fantasy games, like on the PSP or the pixel remasters to help in my goal to play them all (minus the mmos)

My husband asked me to add that he calls Skyrim "Skrim" as a shorthand

Thanks to a certain glass-pants-wearing "inner-net ravooer", I've called every Animal Crossing game "Fuggin' Animal Crossing" regardless of its actual name for the last umpteen years

I missed out on the rest of her story by sticking to the character's philosophy I'd built but at the same time the ending card of "Kid just left without a word to anyone" was pretty funny

In Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous a companion gets kidnapped by cultists only to find that she's talked them into returning her. I made the kid cry when I killed the cultists but that isn't my regret, no. Turns out I locked myself out of the rest of her quest line when I offed the traitors

Since I didn't see anyone else say it on here, I'll go with the original Steel Battalion game. I would love to be able to play the immersive mech sim even without that massive controller it came with.

This might upset Chris but Vampire Survivors-style games. They bore me like RPGs do Chris. I'll admit I played Vampire Survivors after getting it free on the Epic Store during Christmas but after 10ish hours, I had a "Why am I playing this nongame" moment and immediately uninstalled it

The earliest game I recall is Kingdom Under Fire: War of Heroes on PC. A friend gave me his copy of the game back in 8th grade but it didn't have a CD Key with it so I held on to it for the last 20 years hoping to get it running. Thankfully the game is now free of Steam so I can finally enjoy it

It'll have to be Doom: The Dark Ages for me. Loved 2016 and Eternal so I'm looking forward to how the game fits into everything.

That or Monster Fucker Wilds. Feel it has GotY potential

Qotw: Conan Exiles' Age of Heroes free DLC. It gives you a pair of fully voiced companions with story quests and lets your thralls move about your base instead of statically working at their station.
My dream of being a sword and sorcery innkeeper can finally come true even when playing solo

I used to have this as my phone background back in the day. It still amazes me how you get such fantastic skin texture on all your work

My brain just automatically does that so I'll narrow it down to Ace Combat and Blurry by Puddle of Mud
