The last of us or bioshock infinite

Spec Ops: The Line

"Do you feel like a hero yet?"

Also Starcraft: Brood War, Shadow Watch, and, yah, Morrowind. I took over an entire house in Balmora to serve as a treasure room. Then hit the max item limit and had to re-place everything by hand while also taking over another house.

Can’t believe nobody mentioned Last of US.

Adastra.

The month-long post-game depression is totally worth it.

To the moon! The game was so emotional.

I love these kings of threads because there's always some unknown to me gem in there. I had never heard of this game, but your comment and the glowing reviews have me sold and excited to go check it out. Thank you, kind internet stranger.

I got SO FAR through it and somehow lost my cloud saves after a hiatus so...I guess I am gonna have to experience it for the first time again!

It can be a little tedious in long stretches, but I absolutely loved how this game took us back to those fun quirky self-expressive days of the Internet.

Stand with Gooper!

The non retrogaming answer is something like nomans sky where the game got better after release. But I dont wanna forget any of the old games I played and lose the memories that make me love them.

[–] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk 3 points 2 months ago

In terms of modern games, both of the Last of Us games and Alien: Isolation. I'm sure there's loads of old games but my memory is awful.

World of Warcraft

[–] betanumerus@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Ninja Gaiden NES. I only have good memories from that game. When Super Mario Bros was the baseline, Ninja Gaiden was incredible. I played so much I could finish it on demand with barely any slips.

Splintercell Chaos Theory.

Morrowind is a good one too

[–] workerONE@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Hunt Showdown or Evolve

[–] Nemo@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 months ago

I would never do that. I'd just play it again.
