Perhaps foolishly or fittingly for the times, Iāve started playing This War of Mine again. Fits the general bleakness.
Also The Long Dark. I guess Iāve been preparing for this self-isolation and social distancing thing for a while!

- Half-Life series (all of them)
- Portal 1 & 2
- Metal Gear Solid (original) / VR missions (super fuN!)
- Resident Evil 1 (remake) & 4 (surprisingly reflective in a B-movie/satire kind of way)
- Ace Combat 3 (GREAT music too!)
- Snatcher & Policenauts (cool cyberpunk/detective noir)
- F-Zero (especially SNES - still my favorite VG music!)
- Firewatch (emotional and suspenseful)
- Skies of Arcadia (cheesy and campy JRPG, but just so lovely and heartwarming! Cool ship combat too - CLASSIC)
- Elite Dangerous (ever wanted to be a space truck driver? - actually fun tho)
- Thomas was Alone (simple story driven platformer - different characters w/ different shapes have different abilities - short, clever, and crazy fun!)
Pretty sure most can be found on Steam for os x, Windows, orā¦ open emu ā¦

Skies of Arcadia??

They never managed to match this one in the series. Still such a brilliantly balanced strategy game

Sad that I can NOT recommend Elite Dangerous: wide as an ocean, shallow as a pond. It is sad indeed - I had my hopes high, even backed it up in beta phase as soon as knew of it existence back thenā¦ Not the money well spent.
Maybe, just maybe old Elite 3: First Encounters is betterā¦ or Ad Astra, or Oolite; there was another opensource one which I actually played, but unfortunately I forgot the name.
That somehow reminds me of Space Rangers 2 and in turn of Vangers - that voxel beauty with a particular style. There is no other game quite like it.
X series have been mentioned. Iāll mention X: Rebirth then.
oh man, I actually have this one installed now on my āworkā UNIX laptop! This, and before mentioned Alpha Centauri.

You forgot to quote the āalmostā part Lol I was kinda exaggerating but havenāt played skies of arcadia Iāll have to check that out ! But I burned the music DAW for dreamcast, was Japanese and had a midi controller dongle to attach a midi keyboard. Actually saw the midi cable for it at a pink gorilla in Seattle but didnāt have any money 
I think Elemental Gimmick Gear was my fav dreamcast game along with gundam side story 0079.

Whoa! Iād love to see and hear some of that!
Oh, youāve gotta try out Skies (if youāre in the right mood). I couldnāt believe my friends actually liked it, then I kept playing and fell madly in love. Basically flying a sky ship around to different locals. The power up moves are really sweet too.

Oh, and Elite.
Not sure if games have improved that much since the 8 bit days.

A few Iāve been playing lately.
Dead Cells (If youāre into Metroid type games)
Disco Elysium (Point and Click adventure from the old days, with nice soundtrack, and art. Style for days)
Katana Zero (Hotline Miami with a Katana)
Blasphemous (2D Dark Souls)
Fifa/PES/Football Manager (Guilty Pleasure. I solely play the career mode, and get kind of OCD with creating āMoney Ballā type of situations.)

I always want to like games but I rarely do.
On a retro kick atm and might give an ancient game called Policenauts a go. Or Zork, finally.
They have a collection of video games at MoMA:

Hehe yeah. This one is a gem. Itās the same guy who did the Earth Worm Jim.
It also has a great soundtrack. A bit silly but still good.

Riven, Myst, Hexen, Thief, Operation Neptuneā¦
Some heavy nostalgia there. Operation Neptune was an education game but I was really young and it was my first PC game haha. Itās free on DOS archive or something like that now
Riven had like 9 CDs or something wild that you had to swap depending on where you were.
Recommend Riven/Myst for sure if you like puzzle games. Rare genre these daysā¦
A bit of a throwback
