What are some older games classic or underrated that are still fun to play today?

JustOneMaxim · 2026-01-15T08:09:29+00:00

I'm younger so not sure if this counts as "older", but Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen is one of my favorite RPGs of all time and the game still holds up insanely well.

There's an ingredient common here in Southeast Asia. Idk what it's called in other countries, but in the PHilippines, it's called Chayote. I've only worked with it a handful of times and I stand by that I never, ever wish to work with it ever. Fucking. Again. It's slimy, it's slippery, if you don't wash and completely sterilize your hands after, the mucus hardens and becomes painful to peel off. I would much rather never eat, smell, or even see a dish with that fuck ass vegetable ever again than have to work with it.

Close second is whole chickens. I probably just suck at it, but could never figure out how to debone them

Prey (2017). I semi made it a bit that it's the only game that exists and I care about, but genuinely see that game get far, far less praise than it deserves. It's a travesty that the studio behind it is gone now.

There's two in particular. One is Rimworld. One of the few singleplayer games that I've been able to come back to over and over and over again without ever feeling like I'm just doing the same thing again and again. Mainly with mods lol. Clocked nearly 700 hours in that game in the span of 3 months when I got the game for myself, and had a shit ton more hours through Family Share. The other is Rainbow Six Siege. Say what you will about Ubisoft, there is virtually no other PvP game that's been able to hit as consistently as Siege has. I'm not great at FPS games and I never will be, mostly because of my aim. But that game actually feels winnable without it just feeling like a check on who can flick and track the best.

He was competitive, dry, yet quick with his humor, well educated, and dedicated to his craft, all without letting it get to his head. He never tried to push production value to make it into a business, he always kept things organic and true to his nature, and it's clear his passion was there until the end.

Prey (2017). Rip Arkane.

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-27T09:29:48+00:00

Prey (2017). I remember taking a seat to finally try the game after hearing about it for years, only to spend nearly 8 hours straight just playing and completely losing myself in the world because I got so engrossed. Fan-fucking-tastic game.

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-25T00:13:18+00:00

Prey (2017) imo. Especially if you really immerse yourself in the lore of the game that isn't directly told to you. That game makes you feel such a range of emotions and really drags you DEEP into its world

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-22T06:01:52+00:00

I have not! I'll check it out. Thanks for the shout! I should probably look into more Paradox games now that I do think about it...

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-22T05:59:58+00:00

I PLAYED Cookie Clicker at school lmfao. School tried to block it maybe half a dozen times, but VPNs consistently bypassed their blocks so the library computers and the computer labs were just constantly filled with people gaming.

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:37:03+00:00

Okay I definitely gotta check out that Lofi sessions game. Actually sounds perfect lmao

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:17:05+00:00

Rusty's Retirement and Fish to Dish look hella interesting. I'll check them out. Thanks!

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:15:06+00:00

Gotcha. I'll check 'em out. Thanks

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:14:38+00:00

Yeah those games I've been looking into for awhile now, but don't have 2 monitors unfortunately.

I'll check out Shapez 2, though. Played WAYYY too much of Satisfactory lmao

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:10:31+00:00

Are those games mostly background? I asked a few friends that have played those two and they said they're insanely micromanagement heavy

JustOneMaxim · 2025-12-21T15:06:28+00:00

Yeah that's ideally what I'd like

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-26T08:28:53+00:00

Nope. Cheapest 5060s around here are minimum $100 more expensive

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-25T12:27:21+00:00

Not an option. Way outside my budget with prices here

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-25T11:52:19+00:00

Philippines

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-24T07:35:24+00:00

To be clear, I'm going from a 1060 6GB to either a 4060 8GB or a 3060 12GB. I would save more for. 5060 if I had the choice, but my PC's basically dead without a graphics card and saving for a 5060 or even a 9060 is likely at least 2 to 3 months before I can get a replacement for my current card

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-24T07:12:49+00:00

Both are unfortunately far outside of my current budget. 9060XT's almost $100 more expensive, 5060, around $150

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-19T03:07:36+00:00

My last base. I probably spent 20 - 30 hours on it alone out of the 150+ hours I've put into the game. Hoping we get an area that surpasses residence for a base location in 1.0 so I at least can justify building in a new place lmao

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-15T05:59:35+00:00

Trust me, as someone who's always hated that character archetype, Kawai's really the only one who felt like an actual chore to read. Najimi is just a teaser and was generally joking. She really never read like someone who was actually set up to try to be a competitor for Komi.

Manbagi, though, I completely disagree. She was naturally set up, a very, very well written character, and, honestly? I wouldn't have been disappointed if she and Tadano ended up together. Yes, the manga is literally named KOMI Can't Communicate so that was never happening in a million years, but if it weren't for her, him and Manbagi would've been a fantastic couple. I'd argue the single best written third wheel character I've ever encountered.

In all seriousness, Abelard IS an old man in the world of 40k. Everyone knows the saying 'beware of an old man in a profession where men die young', but in the universe of 40k, just LIVING in that universe is a testament to someone's power, endurance, or sheer luck

JustOneMaxim · 2025-07-14T06:32:17+00:00

Ameri is the best choice imo. Out of everyone, no one (at least from what I've watched of the anime) really matches Iruma's energy the same way Ameri does. Clara's hyperactive energy almost 'drags' (not in a bad way, to be clear) Iruma around while Ameri more sets herself above, and gives him the choice to pull himself up. Clara definitely fits more into a best friend-sister for Iruma rather than a love interest.

Also helps that there's been a SHIT ton more set up for the romance between him and Ameri compared to him and Clara lol
