The general is lying to us.

EDIT: Resistance and Liberation open beta 1.5. All it requires is a source game, and it's quite atmospheric and fun to play.

I rather enjoyed the Ben Jordan series of adventure games.  DISCLAIMER:  those games don't feature any action elements whatsoever, so if you die of boredom, it's your own fault ;).

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Shores of Herezon is pretty good. The server is down as of this post though, so wait a day or so to let them fix that issue. And it's buggy, but hey, we all play DF.

Not free. Just open beta. Will be subscription-based when it's done.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

Aurora is a good one, though it's a love it or hate it game. If you can't decide whether to play it or not, I suggest you read some of the fiction.

Transcendence is poorly known, but is an excellent nethack inspired spaceship game (it's also somewhat inspired by Dwarf Fortress, if you read the credits). It's also easy to mod. I highly suggest you try it if you like PEW PEWing enemy ships.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Carebear beat me to Iji.  Let me add Cave Story and An Untitled Story to that.  An Untitled Story in particular is really awesome, it's probably my favorite of the free games that resemble metroidvanias.  Also, Within a Deep Forest, and Knytt Stories (both Nifflas games) are quite good.

Dark Shades, a body guard game is pretty cool. Elona is really great.
