I need it. Help me find some.

Games I've played that didn't satisfy the requirements:
Sacred 2
Fallout 3 (only because I got all the loot  awesome, for real)
Shining Force Exa

Games I've thought about playing but cringe at the difficulty or unevenness:
Baroque
Devil Summoner
Soul Nomad
Chaos Wars

Games I don't want to play again:
Fate
Fate 1.5 (that expansion thing)
Diablo 1
Diablo 2
Titan Quest

HALP

Oh, right, that other requirement. If it's not on Gog, I don't want to fanagle it to run on my vista 64 box.

Console games are fine.

There's effectively no loot in that game.  Go look elsewhere.

I've played it. I consider the characters and such loot in that particular instance. >_> I think Gig would agree with me.

Gig wouldn't agree with you.  Gig doesn't agree with anyone.  He'd just crush you under his boot heel and move along, while insulting your best friend. 

But compared to other Nippon Ichi games, there's no loot.  And the "loot" in this game isn't necessary to beat it.

WoW isn't a loot game. Or rather, your definition of "a loot-based game" doesn't fall in line with mine.

Actually, I'm not kidding.  For one specific piece of the pie, that piece being from the phat lewts pie, AC had one of the better random loot tables.  Now, that's not really saying much...

Both Hellgate: London and Auto Assault were more than fine loot-wise.
Too bad it wasn't nearly enough.

Anyway, this thread definitely interests me. Me wants loot done well too. Spill out!

Besides: is Borderland supposed to be the Oktoberfest of loot? Didn't know.

Anyone got Diablo II running on Vista?  I saw a couple of threads saying it is a pain in the ass to get to work on it, but I'm got the itch to load it up on the new machine.

Just put your key in at Blizzard.com and download their version - works in vista.

Two Worlds was looty. The loot can be combined to stack benefits, enhanced with gems and armor has set benefits. Gems almost make the ring sound.  why so serious?

Hinterland loot seems pretty tame, though it is there. "Ring of Power," "Pitchfork of Speed," etc. I need to play it more because I've just scratched the surface. And AC did indeed have one of the more interesting loot tables. Shoes of Swordsmanship and Cotton Trousers of Alchemy WTF? I'm surprised we don't see more of this in the MMO space.

It was. awesome, for real  Anyway, I can't think of anything else looty unless you consider LBP.  That's really a collect-em-all but since you listed Baroque in there I got the idea you were being more freeform... or desperate.

Baroque has a genuinely bizarre storyline and some funny characters but I doubt the loot will satisfy your craving.

Have you played Shiren the Wanderer or Etrian Odyssey 2?  Both of them have shit-tons of fun loot and are great games to boot.  I'm still playing Shiren at least a couple times a week and it was released in March.  Also, Disgaea 3 has awesome loot and the post-game goes on forever.

Played them to death. Even struggled through Shiren in Japanese undecided

Disgaea 3 is love and hate with me. There's absolutely no 4th wall there. Don't get me wrong, I fucking love the game, it's goddamn fantastic, but I play it in heavy spurts - you know, like 20 hours in 2 days and then put it down for a week. Masterpiece, yes. Can I eat it every day? No. It didn't ring with me the same way Disgaea 2 did.

I need them to revisit the Makai world.

You can try this  http://www.warstorm.com/  if collecting cards is good enough for your loot craving.  Keep us informed if you try it.  Just from reading the website,  the execution looks decent but the game looks shallow.

Yesterday I went to the AutoZone instance and traded in some tokens to the Erudite at the counter for two [Rain-X Wipers], then I socketed them into my [Altima] but it has not rained yet.  I looked at some [Bosch Icon Wipers] but they weren't worth the upgrade cost.
