Recently, I would say Roadwarden, was such a great game with such a unique feel to it.
What a lazy ass question
My favorite game, the game I can always come back to, is The Elder Scrolls III - Morrowind
Wealth beyond measure, sera.
Deus Ex
Biggest surprise: Final Fantasy tactics. Bought it for PSOne, PSP and Android.
Time spent playing: WoW
Story: (though category to pick one) Deus Ex
Honorable mentions: Day of the Tentacle Minecraft Final Fantasy VII Diablo Mass Effect series Portal series Half Life series
Vagrant Story.
That game is one of my saddest histories. As a bit to young to play it I bought it and found it immensely boring hust slogging through the dungeon at the start. Didn’t understand the weapon system. Eventually after several tries I got into the city proper but couldn’t handle that fist boss fight. Put it aside and never picked it back up again. Still have the game somewhere. No PSOne tho’
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
Witcher 3 and not so distant second Red Dead Redemption 2.
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.
Tie between Final Fantasy X and Morrowind.
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.
Metal Gear Solid 3
My personal favorite will probably always remain the Mass effect trilogy.
The Mass Effect Trilogy. By the time I was fighting in London I wondered where this game had been all my life.
