Just some of them: Hollow Knight, Undertale, Ori and the Blind Forest, BioShock, Dead Space, Max Payne, Oddworld: Abe’s Oddysee.

Geodad,

Bioshock, for sure. To this day, I use “Would you kindly?” as a passive aggressive request to douchebags.

Bioshock Infinite has helped me blow off steam recently. Shooting Christian nationalist cops is kinda cathartic.

Rooster326,

Both Ori Games me just bawling crying with a box of tissues.

chunes,

+1 for Hollow Knight. Beautiful game that was more fun to explore than any other I’ve played.

Dark Souls.

I used to play mostly FPS. Now it’s all soulslikes and practically nothing else.

Dark Souls is special and many people have gone into it to great depths. It’s a flawed game for sure but it’s perfect even with those flaws.

Dark Souls, for me, ruined all other games. It took me months to want to play anything else.

Dark Souls

Depths

Excuse me while I have a PTSD flashback

bagel3000,

Sekiro was my gateway.

Recently beat Portal (first one), for the first time. Please play if you haven’t!!!

LaLuzDelSol,

Portal 1 and 2 are both phenomenal. But my feeling at the end was less “Wow that changed my life” and more like “damn it’s over, I wish there was another game like that out there”

tbh it’s better this way.
Why?
Because nobody could ruin the story on the 3rd attempt.
BUT asssuming they could make the 3rd installment a prefect fit to round it up: Gimme

nieminen,

If you check steam, there’s 2 or 3 portal games outside the legit 2 that are super fun. One valve even approved as canon IIRC. One of them you go back and forth in time with a third portal type. One of them is even multiplayer.

zedgeist,

Any names for those games/mods?

Tall_Chilchuck,

Portal Stories: Mel

nieminen,

Portal revolution, and portal reloaded

I believe revolution is the one valve approved as canon, but you’ll have to check that if you care.

Reloaded has the time travel, and multiplayer.

I made the mistake of trying to go back and play Portal 2 during the pandemic, and the themes of isolation, neglect, abuse and gaslighting just weren’t as funny in 2019.

For me the second was more emotionally important. That small bit of opera when you get on the lift still can move me to tears.

Fez.

I made everyone play the intro/tutorial. Most of them thought they broke it.

Rooster326,

I was one of those.

I’ll get back to it one day…

pulsewidth,

Definitely in my top 10 of all time. Amazing game that did many things I’d never seen a game try before.

Metal Gear Solid 2

me, 12 years old in my room, with little awareness of 4th wall breaks:

mom! The TV is talking to ME, MOM!

Spiritfarer, though it’s more crying than drinking. It took playing the game alongside my best friend to get me to finish it, because I cried at the first spirit and couldn’t continue on my own.

It didn’t help that my grandma died right as I started playing the game with my friend, and I was beating myself up for missing that last phone call.

EverQuest. It has been 26 years with no real breakd now. I fucking love that game.

noxypaws,

everquest has an ending??

jawa22,

No. I was responding to the question in the title.

AshCircuit,

I have tried to get into it, I simply can’t. It’s such a grind fest and World of Warcraft as superior in every way.

Homeworld. The end credits were so beautiful. It still gives me frisson thinking about it.

burntbacon,

Dude. I played it when I was just getting into the emotional aspects of being a teenager, and mission 3 just hits you in the face. The desperation to rescue the six containers was real.

Djehngo,

No one’s left, everything’s gone, Kharak is burning

Sad choral adagio for strings

_stranger_,

Came here to say the same.

oyo,

That song is an emotional cheat code though.

Minecraft lol

I studied cs because of it, hell I even wrote about minecraft in one of my admission essays. Something bionicles to minecraft to stem pipeline as I would call it

I also really like PGR. It’s a gacha game but I met a really nice community from it

If we’re talking about great story driven games, signalis and nier are always my top favorites.

pulsewidth,

So many elitists have dismissed Minecraft over the years as a ‘little kids game’ - missing out on a truly great game. The end poem made me tear up. Music is fantastic, I bought all of C418’s music off Bandcamp.

Baguette,

For me, minecraft kinda shaped my childhood in a sense. I played so much of beta 1.5, and watched so many minecraft YouTubers back then. My favorites introduced me to monstercat, an edm music label which pretty much formed my music taste, and also introduced me to pc gaming (i downloaded steam because my favorite minecraft youtuber also played skyrim)

So yea minecraft is still my no 1 game. Especially considering I still occasionally have a month long session with a modpack.

pulsewidth,

Thanks for sharing that, Minecraft has really shaped so much culture.

I got dragged back in late last year playing Skyblock’s latest version. It started as ‘I’ll just test it out’, then a few months building and exploring in it passed before I wanted to play anything else.

Persona 3 and Omori, both about death and depression and grief and they’re just so bittersweet

Duke Nukem 3D.

Tom & Jerry: In the war of Whiskers. I like breaking stuff

The first two that come to mind whenever this discussion comes up are Dragon Age: Origins and Bioshock.

If it were possible to erase memories, I’d erase my memories of these games and play them for the first time again.

definitemaybe,

DA:O is peak CRPG. I love that game so much. I should do another solo nightmare playthrough, with a different class this time…
