Every Console has must play games but what are the must play PC games? Other than like Doom, Freddy Fish & Pajama Sam I never really played any old PC games, was curious what people consider the best so I can try them later
>>12103687Do you mean specifically IBM compatibles, or are you using PC generally? I have a lot of x68000 recs.
>>12103687>Every ConsoleThe PS5 and NuXbox have no "must play games".
>>12103687I used to play Nesticle on mine. Miss that game.
>>12103694When people say "PC", you should shed your autism force field and assume they're referring to IBM PC-compatibles

>>12103687‘Classic’ Pc games all-generic western zogbot simulators copy pasted into ww2 or space settings-boring medieval proto-assfaggots -shitty multiplats that’s you’re usually better off emulating unless someone made a fan patch 2 decades after the game releasedPc gaming’s only purpose is to emulate superior n64 games, and it can’t even do that right.
>>12103750All those work>>12103747Is a good exampleFor that one guy who might care.Currently played >>12103758 and I love it so much. Going to play Might & Magic 6,7 & 8 next. I played and beat Doom recently and loved it but I'm not that big a fan of Doom 2, not quite sure why. Tried Dungeon Keeper and I wanted to like it and did but combat between units with other keepers is such a pain in the ass

Fallout 1 and 2 are the first games that come to mind
Deus Ex, Morrowind
>>12103706Astro Bot is a must play, though unfortunately this isn't /v/ so you cannot respond to me or you will have to kill yourself and I'm also going to proceed to kill myself after this post

For me, it's the vehicle FPS sub genre of the mid 90's>Quarantine>Necrodome>MachineHead
Minesweeper and FreeCell. I am not joking

anon, asking for someone to name the must play PC games is like asking to name the must play "console" games. there's like 6 console generations that the PC covers and entire genres that are exclusive to PC like RTS, point'n'click, grand strat. there's also weird shit like freeware games, flash games etcand i have no idea what your tastes are
>>12109441For example, this list of freeware games barely covers 1% of the good freeware games out there.
>>12109454It definitely covered a lot of ground for the time in terms of pick of the litter. Indie gaming was much smaller back then (and more honest may I add) -- check steam stats on how much slop was added to their library starting from the 2010s when indies became a serious businessAlso having a price tag narrows down the pool in any case. You can make a list of must play games from the 90s/early 2000s quite easily if you're gunning for /vr/ picks
Not one motherfucker in this thread mentioned MegaRace, those FMV scenes with Lance Boyle were badass brothers. I only wish I had as much style and could make as many pussies wet as that man did back in the day. Have a nice death, baby!
>>12103747>>12103834>>12104082>>12104191>>12106171These are all good lists, OP, I was worried people would forget about King's Quest and Carmen Sandiego, which were very important at one point, but someone mentioned them. The only game I can think of that no one has mentioned yet is Phantasmagoria, probably the second most important FMV/Pre-render adventure game after Myst.If you end up liking Phantasmagoria, check out Harvester as well, it's better than Phantasmagoria 2.
