Alan Wake. And on a grander scope almost all of Remedy’s stuff. They put everything together where it feels like there’s more out there. There’s no seam in the metaphorical stitching. It feels like even when you reach the end of something there is more.

From less of a deep standpoint? The 3DS fire emblem games. They do some really cool stuff that connects them together.

If you already have a BT controller (like any modern console’s controllers) you could just get a thing that lets you attach the phone to that controller. That’s what I did. They can be purchased for cheap, or printed yourself if you have a 3D printer.

Drusas,

Sounds hard to fit in a pocket....

Cargo pants usually have big enough pockets 🤷‍♂️

Drusas,

Those have been a little out of fashion since something like circa 2005.

Utility never goes outta fashion. 😤

Drusas,

Oh, I'm with you. I just recognize that I can be very unfashionable. But pockets!

Sworn, way too much Ball X Pit, and Resident Evil Code: Veronica.

Cyberpunk 2077 and Dead Cells

These games always seem like random button mashing, ftw to me. Unfair advantage to be 2 player :P

Disco Elysium, such interesting and complex world building beneath the drunken detective murder mystery. Shame ZA/UM ruined everything with the devs and we probably won’t get anything else out of it.

dukemirage,

I could have listened to the rich lady‘s reality rundown for hours.

Beautifully carved! Just to be certain though: This is about Outer Wilds - Echoes of the Eye, right?

Skua,

It is, yes! I think I should have simplified the hearthian's design more to make them clearer, but I'm pleased with it overall

Gives a strangely similar vibe to seeing the slide reels. Pretty cool!

Skua,

If I had a lot more patience it would be cool to try to recreate one of those slide reels as panels around the pumpkin

The TES series in general for its massive, expansive lore.

But Morrowind in particular has absolutely incredible world-building with incredible creativity and originality. There is a reason why so many people keep going back to the n’wah simulator and it’s because the world is so rich and fleshed out. So much of the following games was built off Morrowind’s stunning work.

SnotFlickerman,

Twice now I have tried to make a top level comment and accidentally responded to a thread instead… Anyway…

Instead of leaving this deleted I will agree wholeheartedly that while I personally am not the biggest fan of the TES series they have some of the most deep, complex and (somewhat) organized lore there is.

I just wish they would hire better script writers and weren’t so afraid of locking content behind player choices. Always having every option available just feels a little silly.

FishFace,

Yeah. And Skyrim really needed better VAs. That one guy who voiced Farengar just did not properly understand some of his lines and consequently butchered them.

As someone whose first TES was Morrowind, it set the bar so high in terms of worldbuilding, I was honestly a bit disappointed with the later entries into the series. Oblivion (more generic fantasy setting) and Skyrim (nordic with dragons) definitely played better, but the worlds were much less unique and memorable.

Half-Life 2

FishFace,

Yeah, that is a great classic example. There’s a lot of environmental storytelling so you can get an idea of what’s going on, and what it is is very interesting, but it doesn’t get in the way of the game or its story.

I always wanted to read a book on the first Bioshock game. I couldn’t really get into the gameplay so I never got far into it or the sequels, but I love the premise idea a lot.

Of course she won; she had a literal second set of hands to help her. It’s the same reason that Goro is the best character in MK. I obviously never win when I play as Goro, but that’s because everyone else is cheaters.

She was just feeding the baby it wasn’t cheating!

Hyper Light Drifter.

Not a word in the entire game. Still a masterpiece of storytelling.

The player worked her way through a four-person bracket …

So, she beat… 2 people?

Still… Noyce.
