Finished game - now what?

JorisS · #1 10-19-2008, 09:57 AM

Hello all!

Just finished the game the other day, and unfortunately I'm not one who starts anew with a different class and does it all over again (once I know the entire storyline, I don't find it nearly as much fun).

So the question: now what? Plenty of spare time, but no game.

Any recommendations?

Earlier games I've played a lot:

* HoMM series
* Baldur's Gate/Icewind Dale/Neverwinter Nights
* C & C/Starcraft etc

I also did a lot of FPS online gaming, but right now I'm more interested in finding another strategy game that can be played single player - I'm somewhat cautious with respect to games such as WoW and the likes, for risk of getting drawn in too deep

So, any good game recommendations? Haven't been following the news and releases lately, unfortunately

Cheers,
Joris

Any of the Total War series. I liked Rome best.

Try Fantasy Wars, really cool and interesting turn-based strategy.

Thanks for the suggestions, will have a look at those!

Just realized I never started 'Neverwinter Nights 2 - Mask of the Betrayar' really, so I have some work left to do there as well

If you liked those, then Planescape Torment and Fallout are a must (assuming u haven't played em). PS:T is the best RPG ever made and probably ever will be so yeah u gotta make sure you play that if u can. No game has come close to matching its story, dialogue, plot or characters.

As for new stuff..well i aint really played many games in the last year or so, but Company of Heroes is really good.

Elder Scrolls: Oblivion is a very good game. Tons of mods for it as well. A LOT to do in the game.

Nah I had tons more fun with MM 4-7 and I played them after I played Oblivion.

I also like Fallout. But Planescape is plagiarized.
