OP here, I actually am generally biased towards PC titles and retro arcade games and recently I've been making an effort to get out of my bubble and try things that are newer or different from my usual taste. This list is kind of a hodgepodge of things that friends have recommended me and that I want to try for their sake, "canonical" choices that I'm experimenting with trying out, and other random ones that interest me.

btw, I played Monkey Island along with some other classic LucasArts point-and-clicks last year and Monkey Island 2 earlier this year. It was pretty awesome, but I did prefer Day of the Tentacle on the whole. Harvester is the best point-and-click I've played so far though. I like those kinds of games but I find them most fun to play with friends. If you have any particular suggestions, feel free to give them to me.

Also note: At the same time I am playing one of these games I am normally reading a visual novel and perhaps playing some kind of arcade game for a 1cc/high score at the same time. I'm working on a 1cc of Ketsui right now but I want something that I can save and come back to off and on at the same time for when I'm in the mood for something slightly less intense. ┐(ﾟ～ﾟ)┌
