Now that I finished CyberMage, I'm in the decision phase for my next game. Generally, I like to bounce back and forth between RPG and FPS, and I've now played two FPS in a row (Bioshock and CyberMage). So it seems like I should be ready to dive into an RPG, but I'm actually leaning towards another FPS. I wonder if one year of Wizardrys has burned me out on the genre. 🤣. Anyhow, here are the games I'm considering next:
RPG
Eschalon Book III (a heavy favorite. I LOVED Book I and Book II)
Ultima VIII: Pagan (never got around to beating this back in the day)
FPS
Half-Life 2: Update (never beat this one either, I did get about 1/3 through it when it came out)
Metro: Last Light (beat Exodus, never played any other Metros)
Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II (never beat this one, though I have beaten Dark Forces)
Doom 3: BFG Edition (played this back in the day but never got close to beating it)
I spent the morning testing out several games and ruled out (at least for this time around) Arcanum, Underworld Ascendant, Avernum and Avadon, and Splinter Cell Blacklist. I have tons more options in my library but none of them are calling out to me right now. 😀
