I've played 15/20, beaten 12/20. I did not get very far yet in VtMB and MotB, and didn't finish BaK. Never played a Wizardry or Ultima, nor Darklands or Dark Souls.

Played 18/20 (everything except the two Wizardries). Completed 16/20 (everything except 2 wizardries, ja2 and dark souls). Want to complete Dark Souls soon.

I understand why people don't play Wizardry type games now, the mechanics (grid movement, blobs, etc) are very obsolete, but you all should play Ultima Underworld. Mechanically and in terms of game-play, it is much more modern, and the game is an absolute masterpiece of art.

Comments like the above should be bannable offenses.
Hey, at least I am honest. I grew up on Fallout, that was my first RPG, tried Krondor for a few hours but couldn't get into it, just too old.

Played 15 of them (actually tried 17 but the ones i just "played" 1~3 hours i don't include). Finished a few.

What "time" has to do with it ? I only played Wizardry and Darklands in the 2000s. By that time those games were already 10+ years old and technically dated as fuck in every way imaginable.
Anyway - Your loss.

It is that technical dateness. I admit I need at least Fallout-era graphics to get into the game. Graphics whore, I know.

What's your agenda, Spectacle?
To make codexians face their inadequacy in not having played every one of these classics, of course.

Bullshit, you're just one of those people who likes telling people the end of a movie before they watch it...

Yeah, Might & Magic VI is at 25. In my opinion, Realms of Arkania II belongs in the Top 20 - currently at 30. And that poll was before the current Twitcher III decline...

I played all but Wizardry VII. I've beaten 17/20, with only Mask of the Betrayer and Jagged Alliance 2 left incomplete. Out of those two, I'll never get through Mask of the Betrayer since I think the game engine is shit. I will beat Jagged Alliance 2 sometime soon, though. I just started playing it again recently, but stopped shortly after the first small town. I keep restarting and trying different party configurations. I figure I'll get through Wizardry V, VI, and VII within the next year or two. I can't decide if I want to play through them or Eliminage and the two Labyrinth of Touhou games first.

So anyway, 19/20 played, 17/20 beaten, and plan on making that 19/20 when all is said and done.

You should do the prestigious Wizardry 6-7-8 run with the same party all the way. Wizardry 5 is really like Wizardry 1-4 in most ways and you cannot import your party into 6. Also, Wizardry 6 is a much better game and easier to get into.

Any particular reason for not playing JA2 or did you just never got the occasion?
It's on my to-play list, I just haven't yet gotten around to it.
