how else are you gonna write the lore for an ancient temple where the crossbow traps haven't all rotted away

This is just about the most cliche and popular trope in every fucking piece of media

>Game is about an ancient evil that was defeated long ago and has reawakened but can be stopped by you, the chosen one

Any good games that do this?

name 3 games not including elder scrolls.

>that race is alluded to be ancient humans
>oh wait, turns out it was a different race that ancient humans actually fought with

Every Assassin's Creed game

Elder scrolls, Halo, Mass effect, BoTW

Chrono Trigger, FF 3,4,10, Golden Sun

Kotor

>anything is considered an artifact if it is ancient and holds cultural or technological value

Consider that a toilet could be an artifact to the next species of intelligent life that follows us.

Gen 6 of pokemon
Star Ocean

>BoTW
Getting dorfed isn't exactly a mysterious disappearance.

Outer Wilds (not worlds fuck that shit)

I am that ancient race.

most of (human) history is actually like this though. it's only in the last several hundred years that things have continuously improved without major setback

there's almost nothing in the warcraft franchise that isn't leftovers from an ancient race
having the titans make anything but the dwarves was a mistake

Etrian Odyssey

Zelda botw
Zelda skyward sword
Arguably FFX
Sonic

he said good games

me?? im the chosen one?? thats really fucking cool im gonna go kill a bunch of wolves and bears and steal gold coins from their pockets

he said 3 games you illiterate nigger faggot

Pretty sure every Zelda game does that actually.

FFXIV

Fucking sucks to know that as far as we know, humans ARE the ancient aliens that will leave behind artifacts and buildings for others to discover. Imagine tbe disappointment on Zergon's face when the forerunners of their world left behind shitposts and nothing else.

White people in 50 years.

Halo
Endless Space
World of Warcraft

Technically every single star wars game
