Need more books. Need more coal. Neeeeeeeeeeeeeed

This remaster is made for me.
I've got 600+ hours on Skyrim and have attempted to go back to previous Elder Scrolls but game-crashing glitches and outdated graphics kept me from enjoying or even finishing the game. This fixed version gets me all-in, ready for at least 100+ hours.

A lot like 7-days to die but this came first.
You don't level up, you have to explore to get upgrade perks. Really fun survival mechanics; eat,drink, sleep. Really enjoyed this game.
Anti-jump scare? Turn off zombies in the world-setting to make this a mellow crafting game with some wild animals as the only enemy. Really addictive and enjoyable.

Do you have 600+ hours on Skyrim? Getting a little too boring and easy?
Try Enderal. Take Skyrim, strip away all the experience progression and make it nightmare mode where only gold buys skill points; health regen in any form will eventually kill you, skill points only gained by buying books; and you've got ultra-nightmare Skyrim.
Good luck.

Rant incoming:
RPG means role-playing-game. JRPG means JRPG means Japanese role-playing game.
In this game, you're playing a character that's pre-defined. You don't custom-build them, you don't choose what they say, you don't decide any choices they make; you're watching a movie with some interactive cut-scenes.
If you love the FF lore, get this game; plenty of recognizable summoned characters, save the "earth" plot, life and death of memorable people in a familiar world.
If you have never played a FF game but enjoy fantasy movies get this game; this a linear story with minimal involvement. 60% cutscene, 20% wandering around looking for hidden items (1% if you run straight for the checkpoint, 20% actual gameplay.
If you are looking for an actual RPG like Fallout, Skyrim, or games with custom-built characters, don't buy.

Why do I keep playing this game. It has a death grip on my soul and will never let me go.

A generic RTS with pause. Nothing to do with Game of Thrones except some house names. If you're into rts games, buy on sale, but if you're into GoT, you'll be bored.

5e crpg the way the good lord intended. Turn based goodness that Sword Coast Legends lacked. Crafting weapons and equipment, attunement, skills and feats that matter, so much character advancement mechanics.
If you know 5e, you will love this game. If you know nothing about 5e but like turn-based games, you'll love this game and can easily jump in a D&D campaign IRL after playing for a while.

A little grindy to actually get more games. The arcade games are just mini-games in the "meh" category but if you consider this more of a simulator then it's pretty enjoyable.

At $20, it's very hard to give this a thumbs up.

Negative: This plays like an educational game, not a $20 indie adventure game. It's overall story and theme seems like it's intended for kids. Extremely short, finished in under 4 hours. "simulator" title is a big stretch.

Positive: Generally enjoyed playing. Fun flight game, easy mini-games and heart-warming story.

I would only buy this when it goes on sale or price drops below $10 but you can get some good entertainment and knowledge from this game.
