Heroes of Might & Magic 5
Heroes of Might & Magic 5 saw a new developer take over, and as such a world reset. Here you have the gameplay you love, with the tactics and development you want with a host of new characters, stories and the world of Ashan. There are 6 campaigns for you to play each with their own special characters and story that introduces them and are a lot of fun to play. Discover the darkness of Inferno, the Elves of Sylvan and the sheer power of the Academy.This fully 3D game brings a host of the classic gameplay among new features and controls that both simplify the game and make it much more streamlined. Though you still have the map hunting, town burning grid based gameplay you love. Altogether a fun game, despite the new setting and a lot of the old traditions came through in a really great way.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is one of the most highly acclaimed games of the decade, putting it on par with the success that more current games have managed to enjoy - The Witcher 3, for example. The game puts you into the role of the dragonborn, a hero who is able to defeat dragons on an equal footing due to the powers he/she is able to tap into. The game has plenty of depth when it comes to its lore, factions, and of course, the game map where you basically can explore anywhere you like as long as you can find a way to reach it. Of course, all of that brilliant gameplay and environment is well-packaged with breathtaking graphics and iconic musical scores that many still praise to this day.Granted that the game has plenty of annoying bugs that persist until today, it is not surprising for Skyrim to have over 200 Game of the Year Awards mainly because the game just blows everyone's minds when it first came out. After all, it literally redefined the open world genre. Not to mention, even with the hundreds of hours of original content to enjoy, the game has a thriving modding community that lets you eke out hundreds more hours from Skyrim.
