2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

Mine has to be Dragon Quest: Rocket Slime, a DS spin off of the Dragon Quest series that sees you playing as a slime operating a tank and rescuing the people from your town. You run around the overworld, collecting items to use as ammunition and saving money to upgrade your tank. The art and music are just as great as you'd expect from the Dragon Quest series. It made fantastic use of the DS's dual screens. It's also written for a younger audience, so a lot of it is just really silly and fun! Try it out for sure, I'm so sad there's no sequel :(

Has to be M.A.X.. Most people never heard of it but it's the best turn based strategy I have ever played with awesome sound design, graphics and music. Sadly it's an old game made by old Interplay people who loved making games.

Space Griffon VF9 -for the PlayStation 1

It was a mech combat on the moon game, with great voice acting that turned into a space horror game very slowly over the course of the storyline until you were scared of every room down every hallway and would hear the screams of the thing hunting you in your dreams.

X-beyond the frontier got me into space games as a kid. Had trading, piracy, fighting, ship building, factory ownership. Great series, and they made more after that. I've never met a single person that has played that game before.

N2O on Playstation. Trippy tunnel game, crazy colors and lights, music by Crystal Method. My LSD taking teen self will never forget.

Sacrifice by Shiny.

I still think it is one of the absolutely best games I ever played. Totally unique gameplay, story and overall feel. The world really sucked me in for a long time.

I think didn't get the love it deserved at all. I would be so excited if it ever got remade or a sequel but it seems unlikely.

There used to be a game I found when shareware was still a thing. It was called Harry the Handsome Executive. You basically scoot around on a chair in an office throwing pencils and avoiding traps, it was cute

Digital Devil Saga on PS2. It's a favorite, easily outshines other SMT games in narrative, character development, and plot twists.

Yet I bring it up at a wedding reception and I'm the weirdo. Pfft.

I miss the savage series. Probably no chance of those coming back though.
