Are you using small-mode or did you restore the good old library up?

This is actually a snip from "Playnite", a universal launcher. It was recommended to me by a friend, and I like it because it's lightweight, and it auto-syncs all of my launchers/services with new titles as they're added and autopopulates the metadata and such. And it's got a bunch of themes, I've got it styled like classic Steam currently.
Get Disillusion, it is made by one of us. Officially endorsed by Agora.
Awesome, instantly bought. Looks like an experience for sure :KongDance:

Old 90's gamers will love the Stalker series, Knights of the Old Republic I & II, and Disco Elysium. Overwatch is the best arena shooter out right now, even with their blatant greed almost ruining the game. That says more about the arena shooter genre than Overwatch, though. XCOM 2 will be a difficult challenge, if you're into it.

Here's a list of games I'd recommend, all from GOG, and most are on sale now:

Ruiner is a short and pretty decent beat'em up in dystopian setting with amazing ost.

Hi all,

I've been out of the PC world for at least 10 years, so needless to say it's essentially an entirely new experience for me right now. I've had various consoles over the years, so I'm mainly interested in PC exclusives, or games that are really only worth playing on PC, especially as someone who last gamed on a laptop with 2gb RAM lol. I play all types of games so I'm not looking for anything specific, genre wise.

Any recommendations would be appreciated!
Hard to think of PC exclusives in the past ten years, but I'd recommend modding some games like the elder scroll series or witcher. While the games are not exclusive a lot of the mods are.
Yume Nikki, Helltaker, and The Looker are great free games, and DUSK and VA-11 Hall-A are great games as well.

Gothic 1 & 2

Edit: for something considered modern : Dishonored games, prey 2017, deathloop, alien isolation (my favorite one) are the only games that feel worth it nowadays, anything else feels "meh" to me including indie titles like undertale and cuphead.
