Richard Nolan of Jolt takes us back to 1999 with this piece, then being part of the golden era of PC gaming. Black Isle Studio's (most well known for the Fallout series) Planescape: Torment is the subject, and he does the game's memory justice with statements such as these:

Outstandingly unique, intelligently comedic, and incomparably atmospheric; the masterpiece I'm talking about is Black Isle Studio's Planescape: Torment. Feelings of love, of loss, and of determination and fascination are associated to the mere recollection of the game's name. This is a game which truly influenced my life, the game was released in 1999 and its philosophical themes and thought-provoking dialogue were partially my inspiration, after a life-time of studying pure science, for choosing a typically arts-related subject - Philosophy - as my university degree back in 2001.
