![]() This one is what started my addiction to RL way back in junior high school on my dads 286. I dont know which version had the black market but that will help you with having something to spend money on. But this was a very influential RL in that it was the first to have a town (released in (1983) and that changes tactics a bit as you can go up to sell/buy and recover. Of course memory is one of those tricky things so let me do a bit of research. I see Moria on your list way to late, I will have to find when the first dos release was but I remember playing it on dos way before the 90's. Sorry I fell asleep and didn't see your question till now. Who knows, I haven't looked into the Farscape game much at all, Giantbomb lists it as a RPG, maybe you could put it on the list just because. I don't know why it doesn't get the love of something like Firefly, maybe it lasted too long or the age of the DVD box set hadn't arrived at the time of its cancellation and series box sets cost in excess of $100 at the time. There are others too but so many people seem to think the Elder Scrolls started with Morrowind or Oblivion, the older games deserve much more credit than they get.Īlso, Farscape is perhaps one of the most under-appreciated Sci-Fi series of the past 15 years. I sunk my share of time in the latter (wish the later games still included the "climb" skill) but never played the former. Other games I'm interested in seeing your thoughts on are Arena and Daggerfall since you've obviously spent your share of time in their successors. I'll probably catch up by the time you get to the next game I'm really excited about, Legend of Faerghail since it's around 60 games away. ![]() Started reading after the Game Informer interview at the rate of a couple entries every few nights, and I'm in the early January 2011 posts right now. Should have gone with a Mosaic or Lynx reference and really thrown him for a loop. ![]() In any event, I'm sure I have a lot of errors and inconsistencies here, so please discuss. If, however, my list misses something that is a CRPG, please do respond. I have my own method for evaluating that. I'll deal with that when I get to the game. It's not that I don't care about your opinion, but please, if you see something that you think is not a CRPG, don't bring it up now. I'm leaning towards treating them as new games if they occur within the game's main plot (e.g., Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast) but as separate games if they occur after the game's main plot (e.g., Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal).ħ. As we get into more modern times, I'll have to make a decision between treating expansion packs as new games or as sequels. I need your advice on this, so if you know a game particularly well, please comment. For games that have undergone continuous development (e.g., many roguelikes), I will probably break them up into version categories and visit them multiple times. Multiplayer games should not appear on the list unless they also have a single-player mode, so please let me know if you see one.ĥ. Compilation packages should not appear on the list, so please let me know if you see one.Ĥ. I don't know if I have that right for all of the games on the list, and it's important since I'm playing in order of the DOS/PC release date.ģ. I welcome your comments and corrections, particularly on the original release date vs. I have not fully reviewed the MobyGames databases for the years after that, only the Wikipedia list.Ģ. Please note that the list is current only through 2002. ![]() Just a quick note in advance of my next Pool of Radiance posting later: I have converted my "game rankings" Excel sheet to a Google spreadsheet (thanks to Canageek for showing me how easy it was, and to Wolf for giving me some particular motivation), and I have added a separate Google spreadsheet for my master game list.ġ. ![]()
