Arcanum.

The game is interesting for its take on a fantasy world at the start of an industrial revolution. Fantasy races are mixing in society, racism and intolerance. For example, if you play a magic heavy build they put you at the back of the train because it might cause the engine to explode. Some tech heavy builds are not welcome in high magic places. It was one of Troika Games but launched with a lot of bugs. The community has fixed most of it. Numerous character builds. Rated #4 CRPG by the Codex.

Troika - Arcanum, Temple of Elemental Evil and Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines.

Planescape.

90's CRPGs. Black Isle Studio. Story heavy, rated as "story fag" level on the RPGCodex. Interesting world. Rated #1 CRPG by the Codex.

Black Isle - Fallout 1 & 2, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Planescape: Torment

Both still look good. Classic computer games. Computer interface. Before the Xbox was launched. No mass market success or appeal.
There were no roadside billboards for either game. Computers were always niche.
