I’ve got a really fond spot in my heart for The Neverhood. It really opened my young eyes to the possibility that video games could be weird and artistic. They didn’t have to be an action packed generic mainstream capitalization of whatever is popular at the moment. As a kid, I could still tell it was a unique piece of work that required a lot of passion and creativity. I consider it the first indie game I ever played and it absolutely set the tone for what I chose to play to this day.

I still listen to the soundtrack nearly three decades later.

Chef_Boyargee,

Thank you for mentioning this. My personal favorite was Skullmonkeys. High school in the ‘90s was a wild place.

One game that I loved and never see too many people commenting on was Tomba!, specifically Tomba! 2: The Evil Swine Return.

I’ve been playing Soulstone Survivors. I kida forgot it existed and was searching the Steam Store for a Vampire Survivor like and was reminded I own it.Itt is clear that the makers were in the middle of making a ARPG rougelike when VS came out, and they successfully made the change. As a result, it has well fleshed out systems across the board.

Thassodar,

Replace Warcraft 2 and Quake 2 (Counterstrike 1.3 was my Quake) with Command and Conquer: Red Alert 2 and Nox, and I was you.

simonced,

I played Nox as well, but not so much. All those are great classics!

Sea of Stars.

It's a nice take on an old school JRPG. Keeps the complexity manageable, doesn't take itself too seriously on the story, but stays engaging.

Smash Bros N64. Every day at lunchtime, we would inhale our food as fast as possible so we had a chance to play a few rounds

Also Goldeneye N64

Buddahriffic,

I can’t believe that this is the first and only mention of Goldeneye. Though it was eclipsed by Perfect Dark, those two were the best console fps games until Halo came out and finally figured out the controls.

Finally finished up my first playthrough of Baldur’s Gate 3 and started a new playthrough two days later, ha ha! I did not find Gale at all in my first run, so I got him this time around and am traveling with a different party. Still having a ton of fun with this game, and I’m excited to explore parts of the story that I missed the first time around!

Also about halfway through a third playthrough of Fire Emblem: Three Houses, siding with the Black Eagle house this time around.

The game that had the single biggest effect on my current taste has to be Another World.
