Those are all relatively new games. How old are you? Just decade, not specifics. I’m in my 40s. I’d say my top 3 are World of Warcraft, Factorio, and Final Fantasy 6.
Wing Commander 4 - At the time, I was very young, and this game changed how I looked at videogames. For my little brain, the FMV cutscenes and genuinely decent acting (ffs, it has Mark Hammil) somehow made it click that games could have compelling narrative
Kingdom Hearts - this game changed my life in many ways. I can genuinely say I wouldn’t be doing what I do today if it weren’t for this game and my involvement in the fan community around it. This game is very special to me because of its themes and major plot beats, and how those interacted with my life at the time. This game taught me that you could go beyond “compelling narrative” and break my heart with a video game lol
Natural Selection 2 - I wish this game were more popular in its prime. This is the epitome of what I think good competition looks like, and a great manifestation of what I personally love in esports
Mostly based off hours played: EU4, Borderlands 2, Bioshock.
I excluded League of Legends even though I probably have the second most hours in that. Toxic as shit and I’m glad I gave it up.
Read everyone else’s picks and Tales of Phantasia is one RPG I’ve gone back to countless times. Might be the only one where I can come back to it months later and pick right back up where I left off. I know it that well.
XenoSaga is worth it, though it suffers the same fate as Xenogears being rushed at the end. Xenoblade is definitely worth it. None of them cross over but they have the same themes and motifs, plus a little fan service for series old heads.
Singaporean Bridge - It’s basically a crossover of Bridge and Werewolf / Polar Bear / Among Us. That small change of not knowing who your partner is from the start makes for games that are way more fun.
Pokemon Soulsilver - I love the following mechanic. The other features of the game are really great too.
Raze 2 - I have seen others describe it as the “Halo of flash games”. Personally, I had a blast playing it. Also, Waterflame’s soundtracks are the GOAT.
