  • Yeah I definitely agree, one of the more interesting things about Oblivion to me is that different writers wrote all of the different guilds. The dark brotherhood is basically the only quest line in the game that gives you different choices of dialogue. Every other quest in the game has only one response, which looking back is pretty laughable as an RPG.

    (Oblivion is one of my favorite nostalgia games and I listen to the soundtrack almost every day, it’s just fun to point out interesting things in it)




  • I love this thread! I’ve been definitely shying away from AAA games towards Indies with lots of love. Here’s my contribution:

    Venineth: One of the best entries in the niche “marble rolling” genre. You explore beautiful alien worlds, solving puzzles, and going very fast. Each world is incredibly unique, and has its own set of challenges to conquer. There is no dialogue and all text is in an alien language, which does an amazing job of immersing you into it’s landscapes https://store.steampowered.com/app/976500/Venineth/

    Hypnospace Outlaw (Just above 3,000 reviews): Late 90s Internet simulator with a lot more to it than meets the eye. The game weaves a complex tale of people’s lives brought together by their community found on the Internet, and the havoc wreaked by a company in pursuit of profit above their users. The soundtrack is amazing, and I was genuinely surprised at how attached I got to the quirky Internet pages by the end. https://store.steampowered.com/app/844590/Hypnospace_Outlaw/

    Going Under: A rogue-lite adventure about unpaid intern Jackie treading through her startup’s basement to fight the monsters of former companies. The game’s tone and humor is amazing, and the “corporate marketing” art style works so well. The gameplay incorporates a lot of Breath of the Wild elements such as weapon durability, locking onto a single enemy, and throwing weapons. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1154810/Going_Under/
