Have you heard of Cities in Motion?
I would've loved to see more LucasArtsâ„¢ quest titles like the old gems.
Day of the Tentacle
Monkey Island 1-3 (4 is not worth mentioning)
Freddie Pharkas Frontier Pharmacist
Sam & Max
Grim Fandango
and of course
the Star Wars Jedi Knight series
I don't agree on Prey seeing it's also only 5 years old and wasn't that great.
My brother who never really played the older games found baldur's gate so hard at the first few battles he gave up.
That's exactly why they should make a comeback. Gamers are being milked on weak easy-ass games that offer little to no challenge - and the default reaction to any challenging game is to give up.
As for my list -
Star Control - if only to replace the misfit that was Star Control III
Master of Orion - almost to the word the exact same reason as above - look how well the Civ franchise is still doing for itself.
UFO (XCOM) - No idea what it should be called anymore - but here they should focus on remastering the game and maybe expanding it a bit
Baldur's Gate - absolutely - they left lots of space when ending Baldur's Gate II - there's room for more story - the endless series of books based on the Forgotten Realms is enough testament to that.
