Name any Obscure EuroJank games

I will go around and look for Czech version, I am a Czechfag and this company tends to have pretty good voice acting for their games in their own language, at least Mafia's Czech voice acting was legendary.

I don't think you know what obscure means.

Divinity 2 was such a disappointment.
>You can turn into a dragon!
Yet they weren't telling you that as a dragon all regular enemies disappear and you have to fight nothing but endless amounts of turrets on repetitive flying fortresses.

Vietcong is so good. To this day I am sad that fucking GameSpy died and took multiplayer with it.

He he... those games sure are obscure. Never heard of Mafia before

obscure means games before he was born

Mafia 1 was fairly obscure, Mafia 2 and Mafia 3 made the franchise more popular outside of Czech

I remember reading about Mafia in magazines all over back when it was coming out and it had a cross platform release.

Just be very, very careful because most versions of the game have Starforce and it will brick your machine.

Nogga, I was 12 when Mafia came out and it was the hot shit back then in germanistan

Mafia 1 was not obscure. I remember Official Playstation 2 Magazine making a big deal about it because it was coming out around about the same time as The Getaway and so were ripe for comparison since they were both the hot new crime games.

I guess I meant in the US, outside of Europe, I doubt many people knew about Mafia

Mafia 1 is one of the pillars of slav gaming, everyone remembers it and especially the pre patched race.
But i guess it is obscure in the west

Favourite spoopy game.

This is the only thing I played that fits that description.

All right sorry guys, when Mafia 1 came out and I played it I didn't have any Internet nor access to media, so I was in my bubble beliving it wasn't that well known and only Czechs knew about it, sorry bros

Project Nomads, made by germanfags around 2000 iirc. Gameplay was janky as fuck and kinda meh, but atmosphere and art direction are top notch, kinda reminds me of Sacrifice (which was much better game overall tho).

No problem user, not your fault. Mafia 1 is great and deserves more love. Despite being fucking infuriating a lot of times.

Shit, I didn't even know it existed. Downloading, thanks user

Mafia had great critical acclaim and sold like 2 million units, which by video game standards is pretty damn good (considering the most sold video game ever is San Andreas at 16 million units sold)

I think this game proves the best that design is more important than technical capabilities. The art direction makes this game more timeless and more pleasant to eye than any game with "photorealistic graphics". Fuck, it's the only game where I started to seriously think that games can be art.

But not many people on the west know about it. That's why it's obscure.

I don't know how obscure this is. It's an RTS/RPG with a sequel and a few expansions made by a German dev. EA bought out the dev and closed them after one game. There's a third game in the franchise but it wasn't made by the original devs and I understand it's not very good. It's fun to compare the cover of the first two games to the cover of the third game.

Sorry Bartolomej, I'm not that easy to bait any more.

I've always thought Mafia's shooting is way underrated. The best thing about it is that A and D strafe without rotating Tommy, making it fucking playable on a mouse and keyboard as it's basically an FPS with a further-back camera position.

I don't really think Mafia was obscure I always used to see it in the PC game sections of stores

Rebel Act Studios are the good Spanish studio who made Severance:Blade of Darkness.

I remember this. Loading times were massive on my PC, and was 2hard4me, so I ended up editing the config files to have way more health and stamina.

I’m from Poland and that game was released around the time of hype surrounding first „Stalker” game. Everybody was expecting from „YaE” something that this game could never delivered.

To be honest I replay „You are Empty” once in a few years. Game has great dark/grim atmosphere.

Believe it or not parts of some Ubisoft games were made at Ubisoft Sofia but i wouldn't call Ubisoft games obscure so i did not mention them.

They probably did since Dark Souls is a copy paste of Rune and Severance.

P.S. Both Rune and Severance are better than Dark Souls.

I am sorry. I looked at the screenshots of this game and what is this?

Eurojank threads combined with obscure japanese threads, remind me to never trust mainstream reviewers. I passed on so many amazing games when i was young due to those gamespot/ign/egm shits giving them bad scores only to play them years later and learn they were some of the best games out there.

Mafia wasn't obscure, it was one of the biggest games around in the year you were born.

I remember playing this, the repetitive music was annoying and it lasted 4 hours

This was pretty good though, I liked the varied locations

Same here, someone even modded a multiplayer into it

We really should make a chart or a list of essential eurojank games

I really enjoyed it, was just the right mix of atmospheric, funny and spooky

Definitely wasn't obscure in it's day. I wish I could play this again.

Yeah, the game was so obscure they made 2 sequels based off just the name. The second one had a a sloppy retconned tie to the first game and I am guessing the 3rd had no tie at all. Didnt bother to play it cuz playing as a spook didnt interest me.

Mafia was pretty much treated as a AAA release around the time, it was on every site and in every magazine and the demo alone was insanely popular as was the game. At least here in Europe, but if US games websites were any indication it'd have been the same for the US. Not sure why you'd call it obscure.

Mafia is 17 years old, how many people on Yea Forums today do you think were alive and old enough to remember reading about it?

Who was in the wrong here?

Unironically. Was Tommy justified in betraying his family?

Attached: mafia ending.png (1280x720, 561K)

The cartonesqe visual design of afterlight wasn't so bad in my opinion, and the lack of maps of aftershock can be somewhat lessened with some mods since it is full of mostly working cut maps (the only thing that is busted are the civilian escort mission).
Though the one i played the most was the first one, the dark and hopeless atmosphere is very captivating despite the endgame being a game of who shoot first thanks to all the Op weapons on both sides.

Didn't Salieri only did that because Tommy didn't complete a job?

Holy shit i wanted to post this, based, this game got me into all of these Punk/Pop Punk bands.

Name me the games you're contemplating about, since the whole thread is a mix of both what younger gen considers obscure just because it's old and genuinely rather localised releases

Partly, partly for robbing a bank without permission

And not killing the whore and Frank.

>considering the most sold video game ever is San Andreas at 16 million units sold
What the hell user, this number was probably exceeded in 2007 or so. Besides even in the GTA franchise GTA V sold 110 million copies. But Mafia's numbers for its time were huge success nonetheless.

Mafia is good even though it was pretty janky (that fucking car race). Something that is at least as good as Mafia would be great to play.

He robbed bank which made police to start war on crime
He haven't killed the whore
he haven't killed Frank
he was dangerous to family
how the fuck did some random czech game had such good VA for main cast, fucking hell

I tried playing this after I heard it was like DaS. I don't remember finishing it because the level design was just a slog and uninspired, but I remember the main gameplay being somewhat engaging and a bit "souls-like", so I'd recommend this for anyone that's interested

Alright, not gonna further discuss what is or ain't obscure
But from the standpoint what games got mentioned in this thread that I've had personal experience, these should be generally good, if not exactly "quality" games worthy of your playtime, games that either lost their way or got somewhat overlooked, and that should be actually available wherever you may be instead of rather local games:
>Divine Divinity
>Vietcong 1 + Fist Alpha
>Spellcross
>King's Bounty
>7.62 High Calibre
>Spellforce 1
>Inquisitor
>The Longest Journey
>Knights of Honor
These are on the other hand games, that might not be really all that refined, changed their way in sequels, didn't age all that well or are now of a niche genre, but do have some sort of aspect speaking in their favour; be it atmosphere, ingenuine design, writing, gameplay or right about just simple "charm" if you will. Just research each one of them, and decide for yourself if it's worth a try:
>Cryostasis
>You Are Empty
>Chaser
>Severance: Blade of Darkness
>Death to Spies
>Ve stínu havrana
>UFO games

Salieri was wrong for trying to cover up gemstone smuggling with cigar bullshit. It shows his lack of trust in his three most capable soldiers, and family is built on trust.
Tommy and Paulie were wrong for doing the heist bullshit instead of bringing up problem to Salieri in his face. At this point Morello was done with, and family could handle a bit of inside problem perfectly fine.
Sam was probably least wrong, because he stayed his ground, but probably was too slow on uptake and missed opportunity to defuse situation before it blew out of proportion.
I believe point of last hours of Mafia is that mafia business just leads to this, one way or another. Too much shit accumulates here and there, too many personal grudges, pettiness, and so on. Then it explodes, and there's literally no one who's not wrong in some capacity.

Anyway, related to thread, thief gold is really good game i guess

Best part about those games is the bugs/glitches, even better when you exploit them.

Original War
It was an absolutely fucking amazing RTS - flawed, without a doubt, but really very clever, charming, and with some remarkably good narrative.

It was also just balls to the walls insane. Suicide-bombing hominids, mamooth-riding Arabs with grenade launchers, and running over sabertooths with a fucking howitzers. Fucking KINO, if you pardon the expression.

Also one of the earliest proofs that western gaming journalism was always biased against East European titles to a certain point.

You Are Empty got a lot of shit back in 2007 because it was a little bit janky for the time. I got a brand new copy off of Amazon and it worked perfectly for me, solid shooter that's pretty fun to go through. Worth a buy. Only issue I've had with it is that the dubbed dialogue Atari did was really fucking shittily done. Like British accents with barely any emotion in it and no lip syncing to the original Ukrainian dialogue. It brings me back to a discount HL2 or maybe just the HL2 Beta with it's own story unrelated to it. It was made by Ukrainians so it's really possible they just saw the HL2 beta and went for that style.

Basically it takes place in Soviet Russia where you play as a Soviet Officer who wakes up in the hospital for some unreleated injury from before the events of the game. The Russians were making a broadcasting tower and hooking up someone with a great psychic ability to it so that they could turn all of Russa into super strong Soviet soldiers and show the glory of Russia. This goes wrong and almost everyone in Russia becomes a mutant or retarded strong guy. So not much different than it is now. You as one of the few actual people left must make your way to the tower and shut it down. You're sent back in time after and kill the head scientist on the project which results in the world's history as we know it as the timeline wasn't ruined by the tower being activated.

There's supposed to be a remake coming out this year, but I haven't heard shit about it since last year. Remind of Empty.

Fun Fact: Its in Steam's database according to SteamDB and only 2 months ago did 1C themselves order a single key of it so they're doing something with it.

This game is superb.

>Hidden & Dangerous is a 1999 World War II video game developed by Illusion Softworks
wait.. what?

what's weird here?

Artstyle is amazing! Those cinematics...

Got to say I preferred Men of War over CoH. Best RTS without basebuilding I've ever played. Each unit having an inventory and having the option to directly control them really set it apart. Tank armor also worked in a realistic way that only really caught on with WoT and War Thunder.
I didn't realize that was European. The ASCII cutscenes where a particularly nice touch.

It's Czech, developed largely by the same team of people that later on joined with the Mafia guy (Vávra) and together created Kingdom Come: Deliverance.

It's a bit of a sad story, because the game was released incomplete (entire THIRD of the game was cut due to publisher pressure, and was intended to be repackaged as an "expansion" - yeah, that kind of shit used to happen AGES before DLC became a thing), but it then bombed hard in western reviews for... shall we say, not entirely justified reasons, resulting in the title never being fixed or completed.
It has rather amazing fanbase though, even today. There was even a major project to reconstruct the originally intended third campaign known as "Arabian Nights", but I think they only managed to reconstruct two or three missions from the on-disk cut content.

didn't they also do honey select

>max payne
the first two of which also count as eurojank

>Mafia 1
>Max Payne 1
>Gothic 1 & 2
Eurojank basically made my childhood

No! Max Payne is not janky at all.

>literally the most famous pc game of 2002
>OBSCURE

zoomers get out

They're still euro games with fairly low budgets and a small studio. Also Max's face in the first one is a perfect example.

Cocu mou xyu, bro.

Max's face in the first one is perfect, a shame Sam Lake gave up on being a star
