One of my favorite games is a hidden gem that I never see people mention. It's called Out of Space and it's a couch co-op game similar to Overcooked with two major differences, it's less frenetic so you can play it to chill out, and it's procedurally generated so you have lots of replayability. For me and my wife it's the perfect game of "let's play a round of something", yet I never see it mentioned anywhere.

The Fatal Frame series (maybe the second one here and there) and Kunitsu-Gami. The second one surprised me since it's relatively new, but I thought it was a great surprise. I loved the hell out of that game.

You are the only person I have ever seen mention Armadillo Run. I used to be obsessed with that game.

Part of me wants to ask where you went to college since that's the only community I knew who played it, but I also wouldn't post that here.

Back in the day I really enjoyed ONI.
_edit: _ some gameplay footage.
Oni had such a cool combat system! There aren't enough single-player action games with this type of combat depth IMO. This video (YouTube link) does a great job explaining it in detail.

Mount & Blade. It’s not unpopular per se, but somehow I never saw anyone mentioning it around here in Lemmy.
I was playing it on console so I didn't get to do any mods to really increase the fun but I still had a lot of fun anyway. I do think the devs need to try a bit harder. I feel like they just provide a framework for mods without making a really nice game themselves.
That being said I played hundreds of hours of both and really like them. I just wish they were a bit better

Flashback.
I played it on SNES, but it was on a few consoles. I heard they are making a sequel so that's cool. It's science fiction with flavours of total recall, they live, and running man. I just really enjoyed the prince of Persia style gameplay but cyberpunk.Parasite Eve
More specifically number 2, because the first one never officially came to pal regions. It's like resident evil but SciFi/body horror. The third game was shit because they lost the rights to the novel it was originally based on. If there's any game sequel that I wish for it would be a proper PE3. -
Shadow Tactics
Desperados III
The ThaumaturgeI prefer Commandos. I heard they're making a new one. Not sure if it's been released yet.
The was a Stargate SG-1 tactics game that came out, but it was so disappointingly terrible that I never finished it.

Half-Life, Thief, and the original Sims games (City, Ant, etc) were my original gaming go-tos!
Sim ant rules, you can be a spider sometimes

Disco bandit checking in! You got any meat paste?
I stack my meat like I stack the bodies of knob goblins in my wake

The Kingdom of Loathing
I can't believe that game is still around lol. It was probably 2009 or so when I logged in last. I had ascended 3 times and figured I had pretty much seen all there is to see. So cool to see they are still around and doing well. I guess I'm going to have to playthrough it at least one more time
Oh man they have added and changed so much since you dropped off

i just hate the fact that 3d games fucking flooded the market just as cinematic platformers were getting really good.
instead of even more refined games with better graphics and animations, we got shit like fade to black and pop3d.

Thanks for that link, it really brings back good memories.

This looks great for my wife and I, also our niblings. Thanks.

There's a cheat code for that.

Perfect Dark. I didn't have a sibling to play with, so I am eternally grateful to Rare for making computer-controlled bots in the multiplayer mode.
Did you ever play with the highest level bots? I can't remember what they were called. They teleported behind you regularly. I played with friends occasionally, I liked Perfect Dark better but friends liked GoldenEye. Perfect Dark is my favorite N64 game actually. Farsights only was absurd twitch multiplayer.

Still to this day I hum Black Sabbath when I drive fast or do any fancy weaving.
Heard Sabbath on this game before anywhere else, I still love them so much.
