Thoughts?
I'm assuming games like TF2 and Warframe aren't up there due to microtransactions
I like Dwarf Fortress (Not as a game, but for the sheer complexity of it all- all made by two brothers) so I like the list.

Fucking kill yourself, OP.
No Risk of Rain?
Huh really makes you think
>Sonic dreams collection
>>339130371
Risk of Rain ain't free nigga
>>339130071
Anyone know if OpenTTD is any good? First I've heard of it, but it looks nice.
>Spend 2980$ on a turbo monster pc
>Check list of best games
>Run on an overclocked Texas Instrument calculator
>No-one Has To Die
Huh, I remember playing that a long time ago and finding it kind of neat, but really short. Surprised to see it get mentioned like this since it's just some small flash game.
How did Nanaka Crash not make it?
>>339130259
???????
>>339130071
The fuck is skrillex quest.
>>339130578
funnily enough the way DF is programmed would not make it run even on a 4000$ PC at some settings, and even at standard ones at some point it's almost inevitable for FPS death to occur. Try creating the largest possible world with long history and tell me how good it fares
w:et
>>339130071
>no La Mulana
Shit list
>>339130071
When the fuck did PCGamer get good tastes?
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY
>No Nethack
>>339130484
It's great
>35. QWOP
I bet they had a good laugh making that list.
>>339130721
Some 2D Zelda clone browser game. It's nothing mind blowing but I remember thinking it was neat when I played it a few years back. It's uses glitches as a gameplay mechanic if I remember correctly.
>>339130578

I honestly prefer Within a Deep Forest to any of the Knytt games.
>>339130484
multiplayer is fun
>shallow trash like Super Crate Box, Canabalt, and Gravity Bone
>Nothing by Locomalito, Dan Remar, or Nifflas
Didn't PC Gamer call Mass Effect 2 the best game of the decade or something? They're a joke.
I wouldn't even bump a thread about them except I'd like to remind everybody who hasn't to go play Within a Deep Forest or Hydorah. Maybe some Lyle in Cube Sector.
>>339130071
>no Iji
aaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
The actual "best free PC game" -all of them
>Spelunky No. 4
>Dark Mod No. 2
This is a step foward.
But, anon, all PC games are free, except for Denuvo ones
Also, it may have been monochrome and light on world building but I still say Hero Core's gameplay was so much better than Iji that it's the one that deserves the attention
>>339131957
Thanks for reminding me of Lyle.
This list is pleb-tier trash (although I do love super crate box) but I may as well bump it to rmend everyone that locomatio has a new game out, based on greek mythology this time.
WATCH THE FUCK OUT NIGGERS, HERE COMES SOME KATAWA CRASH

>>339130071
>Dwarf Fortress is on there, along with a dozen somewhat obscure titles.
>Space Station 13 isn't.
>>339132013
lol
>canabalt
Fuck no.
Stone soup should be higher but decent enough
>>339132294
Fuck not again
Why do mods count as free games if you still need to purchase original game?
>>339132294
>rumba45 days to go
>QWOP
>Candy Box 2
>Canabalt
>Gravity Bone
>Frog Fractions
JUST
Space station should have been in top 10
>>339130071
>40. Alien Swarm
Really? That game with like exactly one level?
>>339130071
>warsow
>yet another dead quake clone
Why not throw nexuiz, xonotic, aq2, shootmania etc. etc. there while you're at it.
>Barkley not number 1
>>339134237
>iji
holy shit I forgot
>no fucking iji on the list
jesus christ what the fuck. One of the most advanced games i've ever seen.
>not a single roguelike
What the fuck
>Thoughts?
I would delete those games off my PC if someone downloaded them without my knowledge.
That's how I feel about those games
>>339134313
>43. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup
>>339134414
My bad senpai, I only glanced over top 25 before getting butthurt. Still, there're dozens of RLs more deserving to be in the top than retarded shit like Brogue and Canabalt
>>339134313
>01. Dwarf Fortress
Are you legitimately retarded
>this reminded me that Rhythm Doctor will never be finished
>42. Don't Take It Personally, Babe, It Just Ain't Your Story
>34. Digital: A Love Story
>06. MASQ
>games
fuck this list
I feel as though Underhell should be somewhere in that list.
>>339130071
I'm honestly surprised they didn't try to shoehorn depression quest in there.
>>339134924
>a mod
>free game
Now you're being silly. Mods are free but you still to have the original game, which isn't free
>>339135012
Its a standalone mod though.
>>339130071
>Path of Exile not in the top 5
>not even in the top 10
>not even on the god damn list
>shit like Skrillex quest and QWOP is
What a load of garbage.
>>339130071
>No Hurrican
baka
>>339130406
Alright, who started this meme?
>>339130071
>03. Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun
>05. The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall
This is a little silly. Sure they're providing them for free now but it's a little silly to include them in a list like this. If they open the floodgate to also old abandonware games this list would have way more of this shit, because obviously those games are way better than freeware titles
So why the fuck isn't GTA there for example
Or Beneath a Steel Sky
This list is fucking stupid
>>339130071
>Brogue in the top 10
Nice
>no Sil
shit list
>>339131973
>No Iji
One of my favorite games. Not just indie games, but games in general. It is utterly fantastic. Really interesting and well made visuals, tight controls, fun combat mechanics with tons of impact feedback making everything feel hugely powerful.
Whenever I talk about Iji I sound like I'm talking in constant hyperbole, but I really fucking adore this game. Both versions of the soundtrack even, my god.
I wish there were more games like it. So unique.
>>339130071
It's nowhere near Iji's quality, but Super Crate Box is a great arcade-style little game.
Also, optional microtransactions shouldn't exclude games here. Team Fortress 2 (even though I don't like it), Dota 2, League of Legends, Heroes of the Storm, Warframe, Hearthstone, Smite, War Thunder, Path of Exile, Ghost Recon Phantoms, RaceRoom, and the new Unreal Tournament should be up there.
They've got some great games in that list, but I find it hard to believe that PC Gamer can put Sonic Dreams Collection, Double Action:Boogaloo, The Expendabros, VVVVVV Make and Play, and Canabalt up there over the games I mentioned on top of forgetting Iji. Seriously?
>>339130484
Played it for hours. Get it and mod it. You will have alot of fun if you like the genre.
I remember playing the original Transport Tycoon Deluxe back in the day.
One of the best free games you can get if you have a little bit of autism in you.
dayum pc has so many games...
>>339134514
>Brogue
>retarded shit
It's one of the best roguelikes ever made
>CTRL+F viol
>No matches.
Shit list. And yeah there are unfinished games in that list already.
>No Nethack
That entire fucking list is invalidated.
>>339137428
Nethack is shit. Dynahack is a better *hack and Sil is the best roguelike.
>>339130071
>cave story behind dwarf fortress
>>339130071
I'm out of the fucking loop when it comes to freeware.
Some of those are shit, some of them are good, Sonic Dreams Collection is not the Arcade Kidz game that should be on there.
At least I don't see any of that Twine shit.
