The first Deus Ex
Portal
The Dark Mod since a lot of years
Mission lists (New ones in work, can be downloaded and added from the Game menu)
Celeste
Factorio.
Everything—the gameplay, the music, the art style—feels like I hand selected it. There’s not a single decision the devs made that I wouldn’t have made too.
Not sure why they bothered including a quit game button, that’s my biggest gripe
Dude I’m actively avoiding it.
Cause like, my favourite is anno 1404 and recently I have been caught up with factory town idle.
Both games are about optimising production and trade routes.You can see my apprehension now I’m sure.
Kerbal space program.
The one game I consistently keep coming back to… For over a decade.
Outer Wilds, it has exactly everything I love. I wish I could play it again for the first time, though being unable to do that is one of the reasons I love it
I highly recommend it, it’s great, just don’t spoil yourself by watching things, even the trailers honestly
aaaaxy. non-euclidean madness.
DiRT Rally 2 was this for me
Project Zomboid, even though I’m not into zombie lore.
- Isometric perspective graphics, one of my favorite game perspectives
- Open world, open-ended, sandbox play with enough of a game objective to not be boring
- Hardcore survival with deep, often surprising mechanics
- Amazing multiplayer experiences
- Loads of suspense and tension
- Constant development from a small, totally independent team
- Incredible array of community mods
I would love to see other games in the same vein using other scenarios besides zombies, like maybe warzone survival, etc.
You say “open ended” but it’s not. Project Zomboid has one ending.
Haha, true. Infinite paths to reach the one ending, but still one ending. ;)
Thief: The Dark Project.
It’s everything I could ever want.
- Excellent story perfectly meshed with the gameplay.
- A strange high-technology medieval world.
- Incredible level design combined with realistic roughly drawn maps, forcing you to take in your surroundings and build your own map.
- Variety of gameplay, ranging from infiltrating a rich baron’s mansion to rob them blind, to delving into ancient crypts filled with odd creatures and an alien culture for some adventurous tomb raiding, to some of the most terrifying pants filling survival horror I’ve yet encountered.
It is, in my opinion, perfection.
Hades
Monster Hunter in general has me like this
Ring of Pain
Strange Flesh, but in a more literal sense, to a subby bottom bear.
