I should not need to explain this one.

Red Dead Redemption 2
I am an emotional person, and I regularly cry during movies, shows and books. But this is the first and only game to day, where I cried. I don't mean just teary-eyed, actually crying. And on more than one occasion.
It made me want to be a better person. Hopefully I am succeeding.
Cyberpunk 2077 is close second.
I didn't play Expedition 33 yet, but I saw the prologue and it was very emotional. There is a really good chance this game will be on my list too.
Yeah RDR2 is the one for me. I had a pretty on-the-nose experience though as I got diagnosed with TB just weeks before playing through Arthur's illness. When he started coughing 😬
RDR2 is the only game for which I ever took the day off work for launch day. Totally worth it. I bought eclairs, dropped the kids off at a parkour class, and just drank it all in. So good. Still haven't finished it, just on principle. I can say I still have more to play.
I couldn' finish Enderal, because I did not want to make one of the two shitty decisions in the end and cried about it. "Just a mod" had me in tears and sobbing twice.
I had my eyes on Enderal for years, but I haven't played it yet. I don't know if I should now..... I probably will.
FWIW, I straight up did not like Enderal. And yet, I would still recommend you try it. If you didn't particularly enjoy Skyrim because it was too open, and instead prefer a more story driven game, Enderal could be your next favorite game.
