Baldur's Gate... how could I forget BG?!

And why isn't Planescape Torment on my list. No, this is too hard.

I can't even come up with 10, but then I tend to focus one 1 or 2 games for a very long time, usually starting well after they're popular.

Dominions, nethack, Neverwinter nights, Alpha Centauri,

Digging back into the past: Ultima (mostly 4-5),Civ1

Default Re: Favorite games

- Dominions series

story games:
- Planescape: Torment
- Freespace 1 & 2. I bought a joystick for these beauties, but I'm not good at them yet. DragonStrike gets an honorary mention.
- LOOM, the adventure
- I completed Beyond Good & Evil, and it was nice, but not exceptional.
- Betrayal at Krondor (have had to format my hard drive THREE! times before reaching chapter 2! I'll complete you yet...)
timewasting games:
- various roguelikes, including ADOM (1 victory), Dungeon Crawl and DoomRL
- Cave Story (Doukutsu Monogatari) is good, I got to the secret level but haven't completed it yet.
- Master of Magic/Orion, Conquest of Elysiun, Dwarf Fortress



Those are games I have finished, or think I'll finish. Games I have tried, but for some reason didn't play through/left, and I'd like to pick up again one day if I have time to:
- King of Dragon Pass (cool ideas and imagery, but I didn't quite grasp the gameplay)
- X-Com 1, Ultima IV, Ringworld 1, The Ur-Quan Masters (cool, but I got distracted)
- Dungeon Keeper 1, Mount & Blade, Final Fantasy Tactics, Super Mario World (damn you, wizard turtle!), Prince of Persia (original, not the fancy new one), Wik the Fable of Souls - nice games, all, but I lost interest for a time, and haven't taken up yet.

1) Dom3
2) Roguelikes (Nethack/Moria/Angband/TOME)
3) Master of Magic
4) Master of Orion
5) Civ II & AC
6) Thief
7) Deus Ex

I looked that DragonStrike thing up. LOL! Either you have started playing computer games from the cradle, or you're much older than I am. Roguelikes on the list might indicate the latter. On a related note, the original Red Baron game was awesome. Played it through once. Then tried to play it again as the other faction. But the planes and their controls grow on you: The later planes fly much smoother than the earlier designs. Jumping from the powerful planes at the end of the war to the machines at the beginning feels like a crippling lobotomy - I didn't manage to play again.

I think I finished the original game, too, but I'm not sure. Maybe with cheats.

There is no goal to the Dwarf Fortress game as of yet. Why don't you try some other hobby, like gardening, or knitting?
