It's a fantastic exploration game if you go in blind and I wish I could forget it all and explore it all again.

What's sad is that I know I will forget the lore and the journey on how I figured out how I got to the end. But I don't think I'll forget the specifics for the ending.
Yeah, it really was amazing to play blind. We especially enjoyed the DLC... when we first realised what it was all about, it nearly blew our minds!
Yeah, I've never wtf'd so hard in a game as when I entered the thing and left the other thing in the DLC.
That game was so well done and thought through.
I'm shocked that this isn't everyone's answer tbh lol
Those are the people that haven't played it yet.
Ultima Online. It was my first MMO. I could own a friggin house that other people could visit! I've been chasing that high for 20+ years now.
Ahhhh UO. Sitting on my llama in my prized neon sandles in front of the bank. Buying a white wyrm from someone and having it rampage because I couldn't control it. Riding around in a boat with a polar bear trying to level up animal handling or whatever because you stopped getting xp if you were stationary too long... Good times lol. I used to have a whole bag of runes to glitch spots in the game 😎
Earthbound. It’s been my favorite game since I first rented it from blockbuster
Earthbound. Even on my subsequent yearly-ish playthroughs, it's so easy to get immersed into the beautiful quirkiness of the world.
Came here to say this one. It's been ~30 years and there still isn't another game that quite hits in the same way. The perfect combination of jrpg, weirdness, emotion, humor, horror/dread, and lightheartedness. Earthbound has it all.
I'm reading the book about Satoru Iwata and in it he talks about Earthbound and says (hardcore paraphrasing) that Earthbound on the surface has a lot of regular RPG conventions, but through a combination of its non gameplay aspects it becomes something incredibly unique that even today has very few comparisons.
Final Fantasy 7 or 9, Earthbound, Secret of Mana, Phantasy Star Online
I think this is a tie between Bloodborne and Panzer Dragoon Saga. Absolute masterpieces, both. I replay both of them at least once a year, but it would be wonderful to go back in fresh.
Probably Planescape: Torment
Sid Meier's Civilization!
