Vagrant Story.
Detroit: Become Human
It was the only story ever that has pulled me in completely. I wasn’t just playing it, I was living it. It took me 2 more days to come down to earth after finishing it.
Space station 13
Cyberpunk 2077 for me, it has everything, an amazing story with great characters, fantastic gameplay, a banger soundtrack, and an interesting world that’s fun to explore and feels like a real place.
Grim Fandango. Despite the weird tank controls, it created such an amazing world - and all in a point-and-click adventure. My home PC is named Manny, our NAS is Eva, the router/firewall is Glottis, and so on.
Also, Psychonauts. Just a perfect 3D platformer.
Tie between Final Fantasy X and Morrowind.
My personal favorite will probably always remain the Mass effect trilogy.
Metal Gear Solid 3
The Mass Effect Trilogy. By the time I was fighting in London I wondered where this game had been all my life.
BioShock Infinite and Spec Ops: The Line are the only two games I’ve played that I would consider “art” in the truest sense of the word. Video games in general are creative works, and they all have debatable levels of “greatness”, but those who have played these two know what I mean.
Boulderdash II on C64.
Portal (1&2)
Minecraft, circa 2015. It was a religion.
Ooh. Good pick.
I satisfy my nostalgia for previous versions of Minecraft with Luanti.
Breath of the wild.
Played it on a friends new Switch and bought a Switch and that game three days later. I was so immersed in this weird and wonderful world…
Dwarf Fortress.
They’re even making sequels to “the carp stands up” now. They added exercise to the game, and now carps get fucking ripped as fuck just swimming upstream, so when they start walking on land they’re there to just destroy you and everything you hold dear.
I wasn’t going to say df but I’m realising now after thousands of hours in that game there’s STILL new things to learn, that was a wild ride thank you
