The best pаge on the Wizchan Wiki was the list of frеe gаmes, ոеarly all of which were low-spec and could be easily downloаdеd without bloаtwarе softwarе mаոagеrs such as Stеam. I'd likе to rеbuild a list of gаmеs that meеt the critеriа of freе, with a suggеsted focus on gаmеs which arе cаpablе of ruոning on that old IBM Thinkcenter in the closеt.

I wish somebody would reboot the old psx mgs formula of fast paced stealth. It was very polished and those games never had enough areas to explore or encounter the enemy in. Both the ps1 and 2 games only game you little over half a dozen truly stealth screens in the entire game. I don't want the whacky bosses, the movie cutscenes, the pseudo intellectual depth involving long codec calls. I just want fast paced infiltration bit where you choke out guards and use a silenced pistol occasionally while going through interconnected and reoccurring, largely urban areas

I would like virtual reality to merge with artificial intelligence that acts as a certain character. And to be able to have someone like Chaz having real dialogue.

The experience would not only break the fourth wall, but would give a special magic to the game, since the game's artificial intelligence could actually have artificial intelligence, and react in a real way with the character. In fact, it is something that could already be done, using a voice modulator, and with a chat it could work.

I want to make a cyberpunk game. I want this to happen in Japan, in neo-Tokyo. but also missions in Kowloon City for example and other cities that can be cyberpunk (example: Deus Ex and a mission in Dubai). I would like hacking to be easy and fun and at the same time complex.

In this thread, ask other wizards for game recommendations.

I'm starting a new thread to look for wizards who played lots of city building games. I'm looking to get immersed in one of those games and I mean I want to completely forget this world exists. I don't have a preference for theme, though I would prefer not to play anything medieval. However if you played ton of these games and the one you think it's the best happens to be medieval themed I don't mind, let me know. Thanks in advance.

I was savescumming every single time I went outside just to avoid ever getting sick. Not to mention reloading and replaying entire days if for some reason I missed a clue or something.

I've got tons of time to waste and want a recc. I'm into milsim, strategy at all levels, "smart" games, but also immersive sims. Not into arcade fps, repetitive stupid retro games, mega grind rpg's that take 40 hours to complete, ridiculous settings such as fallout that are mostly about line up the cursor with bad guy and shoot…

I watched a streamers review of it and even though he said it's shit I'm tempted to play it anyway because I love mythological creatures and these types of games. He said you fight the same enemies over and over and entering cities makes fps crash so I guess I'll wait for it to go on sale during steams summer sale because it's too expensive atm.

>have you played dd2 yet?
I finished the game yesterday. There are problems inside the cities where the performance tanks really bad, but if you can enable frame generation you can workaround this, outside the cities it runs as it should, so it seems like a problem with too many human NPCs walking around. You could get swarmed by enemies out in the wild where weather effects and lightning, etc. are happening and you won't see the problem occur.

The game is carried by the gameplay and exploration, which is really good, it's a bit more streamlined than the first one so I think newer players will have a better time playing this one instead.

The microtransaction drama was overblown, you can buy camp kits and teleport stones, but those items are also available in game for regular gold and are very cheap, you also find a ton of them in chests and rewards, the cash shop is just there for lazy people. It shouldn't be there in the first place, but it's nothing that really affects gameplay, there are a lot of other games that have much worse cash shops and people seem to not care about them.

If you like games like MH you will enjoy this for sure, it's one of those games that you play for the gameplay and not so much for story.

>also why a new game is having problem with tones of npc but old game like assassin's creed don't have any?! lol.

Bad optimization. You could get swarmed by hundreds of enemies out in the wild plus some dragon shows up and the game will run smoothly, but the moment you enter the main city performance tanks.

>exploration. isn't the map of the game the same as the first dragon's dogma? or I'm completly wrong

The map is like 3 times bigger at least and it's better structured. The first one has better story and endgame (but this is because the first game comes with the DLC already), also has more jobs and abilities, but the second game feels better to play in my opinion.

People are doing some crazy things with OpenMW, there is a huge Star Wars total conversion mod for OpenMW called Starwind for example. Basically a complete game.

I've only just played a bit of Starwind so far, but been in more of a fantasy mood so I've been exploring Tamriel Rebuilt.

There is also home of the Nords which adds a part of Skyrim, and there is another mod that so far adds an island of the coast of Cyrodiil called Province Cyrodiil.

>Starwind
Never heard of this until now cool, I love Morrowind and KOTOR so I'll have to check it out at some point.
I replayed Morrowind a few years ago (vanilla with a few bugfix and QOL mods I don't think I used OpenMW) and it was a great experience. I did install Tamriel Rebuilt as well after I beat the game and explored a little of the new area but I was so overpowered at that point and was just levitating everywhere while invisible so I kind of got bored and quit, seems like it'd be better to explore it early or midgame.

these are some of the only games i can bear to play after a dew decades of video games:

factorio
dwarf fortress
cities skyline
rimworld
sim city 4 (with the network addon mod!)
airline tycoon
pizza connection
theme hospital
anno 1602

they related in genre in the sense that they are building something up: management, city builder, colony sim.

i waited to play dwarf fortress until the premium edition on steam came out with the graphics and so far i very much like it. only recently got into it. it is a lot of fun to play because the z-levels. it feels like being in a sky scraper where there is just infinite floors to build on. it's not really a sky scraper but instead it is a mountain but the dwarfs are so crafty, they make a mountain a nice home. great game. takes a bit to get the hang of but the degree of freedom is really nice, i would think wizards would like it, some probably already do.

few games have felt as nice as theme hospital. i've played the new twopoint hospital, it wasn't bad but it just did not reach the simplistic charm of the original. it doesn't matter that the graphics are so primitive, they clearly depict what is happening. it feels so alive.

currently enjoying project zomboid only because you mentioned it, all credit goes to you.

i like how the game has it's priorities straight. graphics are pleasant and simple, i dig that everything looks like sims 1. it is surprisingly deep and it looks like it can be custom tailored quite a bit.

I could excuse all of the content cuts if they didn't butcher the charm and artstyle of the original so much. The devs seem to think dark = scary, and took all the soul out of the menus and sound design.

could you briefly sumarize what that means on linux please? if something isn't in my package manager and it is not in the AUR (which i also install via package manager) then it better be an .appimage file because other than that i wouldn't know what that means yet and how to install it.

Running natively means it doesn't need wine or dxvk, or some other translation layer.
From.what I remebed native games usually come in a folder with an executable, similarly to how portable window applications are.

I miss Habbo Hotel.

I scammed a lot of people on here for furni. Made a lot of scamming friends. Made just regular friends. Played with my sister and she would steal some of my furni by logging into my account.

I would sink probably 100's of dollars into this game if they brought back old habbo.

Fun times. Sulake (the company that owns it) ruined it though by trying to make it kid friendly and removing all the fun aspects of it. I miss when games were actually fun to play.

I sometimes watch an anime or read a manga about MMO video games of some sort and it has made me interested in the concept. Obviously as NEETs we should have advantages that other players wouldn't have that come from being able to spend a lot of time playing. I've never really played any multiplayer games, and when I did, I never interacted with anyone in them, just playing them like single player games. I wonder if MMOs could be a decent substitute for actual human interaction and companionship. Does anyone have any experience with these? What do you think about them? Worth playing for a wizard?
