Actually learning to fight effectively in kingdom come deliverance.

Or maybe beating those swarm motherfuckers in the first homeworld… First 2 examples that come to mind.

Dialing in to a local BBS to play 4-player deathmatch DooM 2, circa 1995.

Not too long after it came out I was good at Siege and I mean good I was ranked in the top 1000 players and I thought that was pretty badass. I got a DM from some guy who was like “Hey I’m from TEAM and we wanted to know if you wanted to try out for our Siege squad?” I said thanks but no thanks, I have a mortgage and a full time and then some job. I dont want to take on the obligation.

I then went and googled the team, I was being courted by serious professional players. I still decided I didnt want that headache but as someone who has always been an underachiever it was like an IRL achievement popup or a level up notification. Like… look what I can achieve when I actually give a fuck and put the work in.

Wandering around in Morrowind before I really knew what I was doing, being happy just to find a few coins in a tree stump or a crappy dagger.

Other games have given more extreme emotions. But no other game has instilled such a joyous sense of wonder.

sexual_tomato,

Killing Vivec and then getting the message about being doomed was probably my favorite “oh shit” moment of all time.

Getting to the top of the mountain in Celeste. It may not be the hardest challenge in the game (screw you Farewell), but just arriving there with the soundtrack swelling felt so good.

Completing the golden path in Tunic.

Any number of silly things in FFXI that at the time probably felt immensely important.

MarcomachtKuchen,

Unlocking the golden door was one of the greatest experiences I’ve had in video games.

I was in the military and we had this big conference table that could fit a good 12 people at. About once a month our boss would give us the key for the weekend and we’d play Unreal Tournament, Quake 3, and Red Alert 2 for 12-18 hours straight while pounding back Mountain Dew Code Red.

Vermintide 2 dlc where Saltzpyre gets a piglet as a hat. Best goddamn $5 I’ve ever spent on dlc. His little legs and his butt wiggle around when you move and ofc the purity seals are on point.

Also way back in DCUO when fire tank was busted AF I kept summoning fireballs that I would then Chuck into my buddy trying his best to actually complete whatever task we were doing.

Also Also max difficulty helldivers 2 against the robots on Mavelon Creek. It was a struggle to survive more than 10 seconds out of the drop pod and it was some of the funniest shit I’ve ever played.

Rock Band 2. Bladder of Steel achievement playing with a full band of 4 (locally).

It’s playing the entire setlist of 84 or so songs all the way through in one sitting. Without pausing or failing.

We did it with all instruments on Medium, but we did it! (I could pass anything on Expert, but maybe not all the way through. My friends were borderline Hard players at best, so Medium was the only way we’d ever be able to do it together)

grrgyle,

Wow that does sound incredible

Passing the controller around the room playing God of War 3 on Wednesday nights.

I was probably 10 when my best friend (at the time) and I would play Super Contra on the NES for hours. We loved everything about it. We’d get as far as we could. We’d give each other lives. We could sing the soundtrack. When it was game over, we just restarted it.

Those days were simple and beautiful. I don’t think another game could give me anything like that experience, since it wasn’t really entirely about the game.

Okami. That game was an absolute joy to play and the visuals and music were beautiful. My wife even mentioned that I seemed calmer and relaxed while playing it.

Bazoogle, do games w Trying to find a game I remember... (FOUND)

I find AI to be really good at this kind of stuff. If you give it as much detail as you can, including random tidbits, it can often find exactly what you’re looking for. I’ve done it a few times, and it’s always found it with, what I believe, was not very good information. If it doesn’t give it to you, just keep adding random pieces of information.

What you’ve provided doesn’t quite seem like enough, because I tried it and didn’t get much luck. The best it came up with was The Silent Age. Try answering these questions:

  1. Was there narration
  2. Was the protagonist male or female
  3. How long ago did you play it? Like, was a game from 2 years ago too recent?
  4. Are you confident it was from the last 10 years, or did you just play it from the last 10 years?
  5. If it was point and click, were there normal animations? Like the character walking over to the thing you clicked?

It’s not The Silent Age.

  1. I think it was voice acted, but not the protagonist.
  2. Male protagonist
  3. I watched it on YouTube, could have been anyone I’ve been looking through the videos of my YouTubers from back then and not found it yet. It was a long time ago 6yrs+.
  4. Could be older than 10yrs but not older than 15yrs, I think it was a new release at the time I watched it.
  5. I think there was the normal animations not 100% though.

Far cry 2 team Deathmatch first team to 100 kills win on clearcut.

I got 55 of the required kills and was banned from using the 50cal sniper on all future games.

That’s bad ass

XeroxCool,

Far Cry 2 brought me joy experiencing the open world format. I fell in love with the desert at night there and now I try to visit real life arid regions at night.

AceFuzzLord, do games w What's the greatest joy you have gotten from a video game?

Don’t know if it’s the greatest joy, but I absolutely adore the sound effect in the original borderlands where you set a Crimson Lance person on fire and they scream before being disintegrated after their health depletes. Sounds horrible, but it’s just a sound I think they did a really good job on.
