Very possible the final hint post. Only 2 games remain to be guessed and both from the same developer and with a lot in common. Let's see if someone can figure it out:

5) A stealthy character that you don't play as in any of the three main campaigns offers major guidance in all three
Hint 2: He (The Dark Prelate) is essentially to Amon what Gandalf is to Sauron.
Hint 3: The characters you play as in the three campaigns are a space cowboy, a Queen of insects and the Hierach of the Firstborn
Hint 4: Like #2 but in space

2) Contains countless references to other media, particularly Lord of the Rings and Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
Hint 2: And references to two other big series by the same developer, including a certain Leg.
Hint 3: Most references are part of voice lines that happen when you click a unit a lot of times
Hint 4: Like #5 but fantasy

#5 sounds like it could be Starcraft, although some things don't right fit, so I say Starcraft 2 because I didn't play that.

#2 if it is Blizzard, and it is similar to Starcraft, then it has to be Warcraft. Oh, there are so many of that. it probably isn't the first, as it couldn't reference that much as it is earlier. Let's go with the third one.
