What games do you think are unfairly snubbed when talking about the best games of all time? (lemmy.wtf)

When talking about the best games of all time people generally mention Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario 64, Halo 3, The Last of Us, Nier Automata, etc. , but dismiss other great games.

What games do you think are unfairly forgotten from this conversation?

Personally I think the original Dead Rising, Fable: The Lost Chapters, Dragon's Dogma: The Dark Arisen and Lunar: Eternal Blue should be talked as some of the best games of all time. They're such great and unique games!

Journey redefined how I look at video games and the world, and honestly changed the course of my life for the better.

TUNIC may truly be the best game of all time

Outer Wilds shares the top spot with TUNIC

Celeste is the best precision platformer, and easily in the top 5 games of all time, though I suppose it is, much like Outer Wilds, quite highly regarded game among people who know it exists

Citizen Sleeper is unparalleled, I can wholeheartedly say more people need to know about this gem

Celeste is on my backlog and i just installed it on my laptop, i need to play it in 2024

[–] Sina@beehaw.org 1 points 10 months ago

Celeste is the best of all time in its genre. i have put more than 100 hours in it and yet i'm still shit, but it's just so gratifying to complete a harder screen..

Heartily recommend playing it on controller if you can, and enjoy the ride!

Remember: You can do this!

Yeah i'm mostly a controller player so that works for me. Is it that hard? I've played stone hard games like dmc/dark souls but this seems very different

You will die thousands of times, but until you reach your limit as a gamer it will never feel like banging your head against an unbreakable wall. Just moving around is so much fun in Celeste.

It is an incredibly challenging game, but unlike dark souls it's an incredibly challenging game that wants you to succeed. If you had the coordination for things like dmc or dark souls I have no doubt you'll be able to play all the content celeste has, with some perseverance!

Tunic has such an unique vision and it executes it expertly. On the surface it's a zelda-like but it's so much more than that, and it's best experienced blind. In fact, that's the whole idea. The developer wanted to replicate the experience of being a kid picking up a game in a different language that you had to figure out little by little.

[–] apotheotic@beehaw.org 2 points 10 months ago

Agreed! I don't know if I will ever again experience as much enjoyment from a game as I did from tunic, but that's okay, for having experienced tunic
