I haven’t played in a couple of years so I don’t even remember all the different weapons. I just loved the challenge. I found the game by accident on steam, tried playing and got totally crashed. It took me couple of months to be able to stand my ground and finish the round in the top half. Really hard but as you say, really addictive. I don’t have that much time for games now but if I do one day I might get back to FoF.
Top 3 is hard. I’ll start with the first three that came to mind, in no particular order:
Witcher 3
Star Control 2
Monkey Island 2
But there are so many that I could have listed instead.
The Commander Keen games are amongst the first I remember playing, I loved those and played through them so many times.
Baldurs Gate 3 was such a masterpiece, it probably could bump W3 off that list.
Although, Ultima 7 was the first RPG I played where I became properly immersed in the story. The world, the characters, the way the mystery of the main story unfolds. And it is actually a really good jump-in point for the series as it’s set a couple centuries after number 6.
Fallout 1 also could easily make the list. I loved the way such a small and intimate quest for your vault unfolds into something bigger.
Really glad to see someone say Earthbound. I love that game and have really enjoyed sharing it with my kids. I started them young on it while teaching them to read. I’ll sit with them and narrate the game and it really helps them a lot with learning to read. Just got to Happy Happy Village with one of them the other day.
