Dark Mod.

https://www.thedarkmod.com/main/

If you even remotely liked LGS's Thief in any of its forms, but especially in its earliest phases, you need to try this. At one time it required Doom3, but it has been stand alone since probably 2012 or so. Just a gently caress-ton of work to get it to where it is. Yeah, it may be a bit rough around the edges but, come on, it's the closest thing to Thief in all its taffing glory as we'll ever see again.

eta: fixed apostrophe and top of the page too. woo-hoo!

Thanks for reminding me this exists. I played it a couple of years ago, and its incredibly well made. It nails everything good about the thief games, so yeah, play this game people!

Age of Empires Online was brought back from the dead by the guys of Project Celeste. Now you can play it online or offline with all the premium poo poo (like some premium civs) unlocked. Check it out if you like RTS.

Me and a buddy downloaded and played this back in the day. Holy poo poo what an obvious cash grab that game was. No wonder it died hard. It was the very definition of pay 2 win.

We downloaded it now that its free, and with everything unlocked it is a good game in its own right. Albeit very light on tactics. The fun is in the singleplayer/coop i'd say.

Here's a long Twitter thread covering a lot of fangames, standalone mods and other free games:

Wow, so glad darkmod is still active and thriving. After the disappointment that was "UBISOFT™ TH4IEF™" It's good to know the thief legacy lives on.
