I should not need to explain this one.

I’m still playing it: sons of forest.
How it changed my life: I have a much deeper appreciation to go into nature and feel more confident
Also having that deeper understanding to put together an earth quake survival kit.like you never know if you have to bail and you just gotta be ready to evacuate and survive.
Other games: Titan fall 2. I bawled at the end. I’m just now playing it through again. And I’m not one to replay a game but I would with that one given the bond. Never thought I’d cry at a game but that one …that one was special for me.
That's fantastic. It's a survival game ? I remember loving to roam the ashlands in Morrowind and that might have contributed to my tendency to walk everywhere. But nature itself, I'm not sure. I remember fondly the lush hills of Cyrodiil, the enchanted woods of Albion (Fable), but I don't think any of these really turned me on nature as much as having an edible, strapping on my trekking shoes and getting lost in the forest around my home
