spoileryou can choose to return everything the way it was to restore the timeline and rescue the town.
In “What remains of Edith Finch” you arguably don’t change anything. You just discover what has already happened, then you leave and the story ends. Even more so with “Dear Esther”. Less so with “The Vanishing of Ethan Carter”.
Alan Wake? Unclear what happens and what doesn’t, but one possible interpretation is that the main character is just stuck in a room typing on a typewriter for the entire game.
In Xenon, when you finish level 4 it just restarts at level 1. 🙂
The whole game is an anomaly, plagued with some pourly addressed design challenges and a bit of jank, BUT, it is also wonderfully unique, has everything you could want in a shooter, instant action, high skill ceilling and it ruined gunplay for me with its longer TTK and deep shooting/bullet mechanics (most other shooters are just point and click by contrast).
I haven’t played in a couple of years so I don’t even remember all the different weapons. I just loved the challenge. I found the game by accident on steam, tried playing and got totally crashed. It took me couple of months to be able to stand my ground and finish the round in the top half. Really hard but as you say, really addictive. I don’t have that much time for games now but if I do one day I might get back to FoF.
I love seeing your posts because they remind me that I actually do have time to game. I think I’m going to set some time aside for outer wilds or obra dinn later
I recently (2 years ago 🥲) 100%'d wind waker. Part of me wants to do it again lol
I 100% Wind Waker myself a few years ago. So much damn fun, but i don’t think i could ever do it again. It took so much out of me. Respect to you though for 100% it, i know how much work that is
I bought this recently and started playing but put it down because I found it boring but I did the same for TLOU and came back to it months later and now that game is in my top 10 all time lol.
They’re definitely something i think someone needs to be in the mood for, but damn, when you’re in the mood for them they’re some of the best things you can play. Naughty Dog really knows how to make the best of what they’re working with. It makes me curious to see whats next
Counter Strike (all versions): the perfect shooter.
Terraria: the progression is amazing, but what never ceases to amaze me is how, despite the game’s huge content, it is never overwhelming or intimidating. Just a lot of fun.
Transport Fever 2: by far my favorite world-builder type game, and it still gets updates!
These games are rooted in my childhood and connected to memories of simpler times and good friends. I Still play video games but I don’t think I could ever experience the same level of joy and excitement that I got from gaming as I did when I was younger. These days I’d rather just go for a nice walk with my dog like the boring old man that I am.
Going to have to go with the three that had the biggest impact on me.
1: Doom / Doom 2. In addition to being two of the most influential and important FPS games of all time, they got me into modding, programming, the internet, 3D graphics, shaping my entire future career path.
2: Kerbal space program. No moment in all of gaming had me leap out of my chair and whoop the way landing in the Mun for the first time did. Now that I understand orbital mechanics, I get annoyed at almost all depictions of space flight in movies.
3: Factorio. Got to this one late, on Switch about 6 months ago. I can’t think of any game which has rewired my brain as much. As a programmer, I come away from each play through with entire new methods of solving problems at work. May be the single most in depth and addictive game I’ve ever played.
