Binding of Isaac for me. Endless replay value.

I only play a certain part of games, I don't care for rpgs or top-down games as much as I like first person shooters, racing games, or simulation games.

With that being said, here's my list.

  • Red Dead Redemption 2: The best game I have ever played, hands-down. It's story and gameplay are both perfection.
  • Trepang2: A less heard of game, but a really fun first-person shooter which is like a mix of Crysis and Doom.
  • Mafia 1 and 2: A great series with solid stories and gameplay, these are very enjoyable to play. Just don't buy Mafia 3. It's like if Ubisoft made a Mafia game.
  • Arma III: A classic military simulation game which I spent hours on hours in. I love exploring the maps while engaging in realistic shootouts, especially with mods like ACE which make it even more realistic and immersive.

So many tedious recommendations when the answer is obviously heaven's vault.

It's dogshit in almost every way. Even moving around the world feels like pouring salt into your eyes. I hate almost every single thing, the protagonist, the pace, the awful vehicle sections to travel. But it's something you should play, or perhaps experience.

It's an archeological translation game and there are multiple moments of "Ok so maybe that actually means font of life not mother goddess, but that would mean this means artificial god which would mean that the extinction event was actually transcendence and holy shit..."

As i sadly have not found them here:

-Gothic (all three). One of the first non-us-centric and it showef

  • giants:citizen kabuto. Weird genre-mashup that also was funny.

And a ton more I'm too lazy to list.

I remember having a demo for giants: citizen Kabuto, it was a weird and fun third person shooter. The thing I remember most is the initial quest giver guy and the way he would say "huuungry" something about it stuck in my brain

Dead Cells. Factorio. Mini Metro. FTL.

[โ€“] Ardyssian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 9 months ago

To give something that most likely has not been mentioned: Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy. The character banter is the best I've encountered in any video game thus far.

[โ€“] chahk@beehaw.org 3 points 9 months ago

Mass Effect Trilogy (legendary edition).

Voices of the Void.

What platform? I can think of multiple must buys, but it really depends on the system.

Doom 1993/doom 2. Decades of gaming since it came out and STILL nothing has beat the tactile sound of the super shotgun paired with the moans of demons collapsing. Absolutely amazing. though I only have 100+ hours in these 2 games combined they are a must play.

Closest I can think of is the engineers plasma gun in Deep Rock Galactic which is my #2 must play game. Its SO fun and a successful grapple + special powder x2 + grapple + skull crusher to get into a nitra vein when the engie isn't around is so incredibly satisfying. 1700 hours shows I love it so much.

Minecraft. Need I say more? rough estimate as a lot hasn't been tracked but 1500 on switch and 153 days on prismlauncher is around 5,000 hours in this silly block game.

EDIT: didn't expect the variety of games in this thread, very interesting

You can't buy them anymore. They're all got delisted from every store by the publisher.
