Good rundown, they really loaded this thing up, it’s basically a history of Quake II’s development and subsequent releases.

Rome Total War is my favorite of theirs. But I believe I have one of the expansions so you can play a Teutonic Knight based map, Barbarian, England during the Viking Invasion, etc etc.

I have been wasting my time on civ6 lately.

medieval 2 had those expansions iirc.  well, at least the first one. 

an engine update fucked with the mouse controls after medieval 2 and i've never really gotten over it.  plus a lot of the later games were buggy as shit on release instead of polished.
