Games that positively surprised me? None. I don't think such games exist anymore. Nowadays games are only made to suck the dough out of your pockets.
I used to like ETS2 but SCS keep doing whatever they want and since v1.47 the game is good for nothing, so I downgraded it to 1.46 (where ALL of my mods work) and moved it out of Steam, so that it never updates.

Games that became satisfyingly good to play after I modded them - quite a few: Carmageddon 2, NFS Most Wanted 2005, Galaxy on Fire 2 HD, Hard Truck Apocalypse, Star Control Origins.

And thats why I mostly play older emulated games now and have been for awhile...... Most modern games just dont do it for me anymore......
Even my answer in this very thread above was a game from 1990 and a game from 1993......

There are still some really good indie games coming out now...... But there are so many "indie" games its really hard to find the gems now.....
