I’ve bought SOTN for 4 different systems/platforms now. Double Crissaegrim and double Rings of Varda ftw.

I used to play it that way to. OP. To the max. It was more fun to try the other weapons and items to be honest. The game has tonnes of unique gear!

I’m kinda surprised it took this long to see Pokémon mentioned.

Agree for C&C:RA. I easily spent hundreds of hours playing that game. But would you believe they were all on the PS1? (family didn’t have a PC in the 90s 🫤)

The StarCraft storyline and characters resonated so much with me as a kid.

Legendary ending and silly humor throughout made this my goat game. Super Mario World and Super Metroid tie for second.
