Figured I'd try to get a general discussion thread going on this comm. If there's interest I'll make a new thread every now and then.
I've been going through the Ratchet and Clank series on PS2 and am just starting up Going Commando. Emulating everything on PCSX2 (ask me about emulation for anything ever and I'll be glad to help you) which has been a really great experience so far. This franchise has lots of nostalgia for me and represents the best of the PS2-era platformers (although I did love both Sly and Jak). I think the reason I've always like the R&C series more than Jak is that the weapons were more creative/fun to use than those in Jak 2 onwards.
I'm thinking about trying out the System Shock Remake this weekend but never played the original. I'm aware it's a much older design-style of game but it looks like something I could really enjoy.
Sadly I have a pirated GoG copy so I can't connect to any servers, tried it but my key is in use and I dunno how to get another one. But yeah I see how this game was made with multiplayer in mind.
I'm assuming the online is mostly dead, so you're not missing much. When it originally released there were lots of small persistent world servers that people would play on - pretty fun, but practically impossible to recreate today.
I distinctly remember griefing on a Harry Potter RP server with a half-orc monk :ok:
Edit: NWN2 has fantastic expansions (I think Josh Sawyer wrote or directed them?) and a pretty solid main campaign. Highly recommend even if you burn out on the first game.
