ok, the forum is working terribly again and loading every other time, I'll try to express my opinion in more detail.

OF COURSE, Resident Evil and Dino Crisis are good games, I would say more, they are great games, they are living classics, but these are games for those who played them THEN, playing now with static backgrounds, tank controls, manual saves, and more or less existing in-game difficulty will be a very strange and very painful experience, which is not designed for modern players. This is a game for old people who want to remember how green the grass used to be, and the sun shone brighter.

Breath of Fire is from the same camp, but in a different genre. Is it a good game? Of course! Will anyone play it? To play it, not put it on the virtual shelf of a virtual library?

Witcher... if you already have a GOG account and don't have the first two games there - you are definitely doing something wrong.

LOST EMBER... it seems to me that such games are released once a week, and everyone's libraries already have something similar, only there's not a wolf playing there, but a fox, or not a parrot flying, but a wind itself, so I'm not interested at all, but at least it's a game, and not some in-game resources for mobile crap that no one plays.

Atari 50. Everyone who remembers how to play this game died a long time ago. No one will play it. But for the sake of laughter, someone will launch it once or twice.

Broken Sword - Shadow of the Templar: Reforged - this should probably end first, because it's a remake of the remaster of the director's cut (which absolutely no one asked for, but it is what it is), that is, a completely new game from 2024 if you're lost in time somewhere 5 years before the release of Dino Crisis. But nevertheless, this is a free opportunity to see what and why they re-released it this time. And if you haven't played it yet, it's a great series of quests with a good story and logical puzzles, it's worth joining the series.

I won't even bother going into the vault this month.

This is my virtual shelf :LOL: RE sits there loaded just to see the title screen, and that was the new version.

This is the one I'd be most likely to play...I actually voted for its survival on GOG.

Thats...usually how that game goes. It has extremely addicting ganeplay mechanics...if you not already, you'll soon be running far ahead of the actually story goals to just clear sync points to see your surroundings and loot treasure on the way :LOL:

I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on Rogue once you play for a bit, although its far from the best classic style creed, its still worthy of the series.

OK, I'm ancient, so my picks would be: Breath of Fire - because I loved those games since Super Nintendo, Broken Sword - again, one of the point and click franchises I love, and Atari 50. And I would play all of them. Atari would be my first choice, but I read they don't offer support for the GOG version, and two DLCs are not on GOG.

Well... I'm still playing Origins, and this is literally what I do - run around all the available locations and do some strange things (I climbed the highest pyramid and got stuck in the texture somewhere in the middle, very immersive, I like it) to avoid playing the story. I can't say that it intrigues me in the slightest, but the sidequests and question marks give me the opportunity to run and not get bored.

Yep, sounds like creed. You'll enjoy Rogue much more IMO, since it actually has a story thats playable...and your actually an assassin rather than a wannabe kratos :LOL:

No levels, no skill points. You learn through story events, except for side skills in one or two where you can call assassins...the closest it came was having different gear with bonuses (fixed--not random)

Did I mention that people stay dead? At least long enough for it to matter...I have too many mixed in my head to be sure which one i'm talking about all the time

You sneak up on a boss with your hidden blade...they die. Again, in most...one of them I think it could only take half a life bar before the rpg types.
