RULES: Can only be up to 5 favorite and 3 anticipated games.

Any platform, any genre, any year... what are (up to 5) of your favorite games that you have ever played and (up to 3) of the most anticipated games your looking forward to? In no particular order here are my...

Favorite 5 Games:
Planescape Torment
Baldur's Gate 2
Diablo III
Pillars of Eternity 2
Path of Exile 2

Anticipated 3 Games:
Diablo IV
Baldur's Gate 3
Star Citizen

There were 100's of games that I've played since the 70s. The old games were great back in the day but times change and I look forward to what advancements bring to any gaming platform.

I cannot permit this to end without a few Honorable Mentions such as: Descent, X Wing vs Tie Fighter, Jane's USAF, Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord, Neverwinter Nights, Skyrim, Freespace 2, Total Annihilation, Zork I, D&D 'The Temple of Elemental Evil', Command & Conquer: Red Alert and the list goes on an on....

Diablo III instead of Diablo II? Are you sure this is not a typo?

Very hard to say because there are many games I loved.

Baldur's Gate 1 & 2 (can't say)
Final Fantasy 7
Rome Total War
Mount and Blade : Warband
The Last of Us

I'm not really waiting for specific games at the moment, exept maybe Mount & Blade 2 : Bannerlord.

favourites:
- Planescape Torment
- The Witcher series
- Deus Ex (the original game)
- Kotor 2
- Disco Elysium ( true successor to PST)

anticipated:
- Baldurs gate 3
- Pathfinder: Wrath of the Rightous
- Cyberpunk 2077

Finding my favourites is rather easy: Which games did I play several times and enjoyed them every time.
I did finish BG1+2+ToB, but when I tried to play it later, I quit at some point because I was bored. I already knew the story and the quests. So it was just pre buffing, click enemies to death, rest and repeat.
I like those favourites because they are quite philosophical sometimes, making me think about stuff from the real world sometimes. Playing them again some years later can give you some new thoughts because you and the world have changed in the meantime.

I hope the anticipated games have a high replay value because you have so many different choices. In BG you could chose to do a quest or not and sometimes to finish it good or evil, but non of this influenced the outcome of the main quest.
