Having just finished KKND2 (liked it a lot), now I am again in the tasty situation to think what to play next. I'd want to try some underdog, something not too obvious. It would be too easy for me to pick e.g. Age of Empires 3, Star Wars Battlegrounds or Icewind Dale 2, but somehow I feel I should install something I know nothing about (besides the name), and/or something from my retail PC collection (instead of a GOG (or Steam) game).
Maybe the Enemy Nations RTS that I noticed one or two weeks ago, freeware nowadays? I think it first needs some work to get installed, apparently you are supposed to make a CD image first from those bunch of files etc... (why couldn't the developers just offer a ready CD-image, or direct installation files?).
http://www.gog.com/forum/general/enemy_nations_anyone_remember I have some other games installed and waiting for me to either properly play or finish them (Thief Gold, Tie Fighter, Mechwarrior 3....), but I am mainly playing those on other PCs, especially the games needing a joystick. For this laptop I need something that can be played with the mouse and keyboard in a relaxed manner. RTS, RPG or possibly an adventure game (not a big fan of adventure games though, always get stuck in some illogical puzzle...).
