Seeing as games companies are using AI to mass report sites for DMCA I figured it’d be a good time to circle the wagons around safe sites you can use for your roms needs. Here’s my list I have bookmarked so far:
https://vimm.net/ (recently got hit with a dmca and had to remove stuff)
https://r-roms.github.io/ (megathread of roms stuff)
https://gog-games.to/ (my go-to for GOG games)
https://edgeemu.net/ (lots of classics)
https://fitgirl-repacks.site/ (excellent modern PC games)
Of course we also have archive.org which I hope most people know about by now.
For fun here’s some video game private servers:
https://github.com/XiPrivateServers/Servers/blob/main/SERVERS.md (final fantasy xi private server listings)
https://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverlist (everquest private servers)
https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX (source port of diablo 1, hosts multiplayer games)
https://slashdiablo.net/ (diablo II private server)
https://cp.payonstories.com/ (best classic ragnarok online server I found)
I have stumbled upon this website that I have never seen talked about, yet seems to have an extensive library with easy navigation: https://myrient.erista.me/
Is anyone familiar with it?
best rom site I’ve used
Why do I see it mentioned so rarely then? Is it because it’s focused on retro/early modern games, and discourse is mostly interested in sites with contemporary titles?
Nice find, can’t vouch for it though as this is the first I’ve seen it.
the roms megathread linked in the OP links to myrient for a lot of categories
Oh, nice!
