I'm thinking about writing a Black Isle\Troika\Obsidian retrospective where I'll play and review every single game that I own that was made and published by them.
I want help by GOGers telling their experiences with their games,which game they started with and what do you think about their games.

i am a troika\obsidian fan
and consider vampire bloodlines ( troika ) and kotor 2 ( obsidian )
some of the finest games ever made

black isle not so much

among other things
white wolf merged with ccp games and they refuse to play ball
but troika the actual studio that created the game went defunct and turned itself in to obsidian
and activision is the original publisher of the game

the game is on steam as an activision title so its either activision not interested in releasing it drm free
or ccp games ( most likely because of the by now cancelled wod moo )

I never played the other 2,only Arcanum(which is my favourite game here on GOG).

arcanum was amazing. though for some reason never finished it, got a bit lost at some point. should try that some day.
for some reason I prefer Fallout 1 over the sequel. Not that F2 was bad, just not as super-awesome as the first one.
