I have not kept up with gaming much for the past decade, so my list is going to be very dated. In no particular order:

  • Starsiege: Tribes (Tribes 2 gets an honorable mention)
  • EarthSiege 2
  • EverQuest (very begrudgingly, but it did kick the era of MMORPGs into overdrive, and I was addicted to it for almost a decade)
  • Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
  • Mass Effect Legendary Edition (I'm counting the trilogy as a single game)
  • X-Wing Vs. Tie Fighter
  • Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe
  • Cities: Skylines
  • Star Trek Online (only because of storylines)
  • Battlefield 1942

No console games on my list, because PCMR! :P

[Edit] Almost forgot Star Control 2!

[–] chahk@beehaw.org 4 points 6 months ago

I have a whole separate list for arcade games.

  • Mortal Kombat (including only 1, 2, and 3. Hated 4 with a passion.)
  • Virtua Fighter 2
  • Killer Instinct 1 and 2
  • Marvel Vs. Capcom
  • Super Street Fighter II Turbo
  • X-Men (1992 side scroller)
  • NBA Jam
  • Tekken 3
  • Daytona USA (really reaching here)
  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time (struggling to get the list to 10)

Tic tak toe,

Solitaire,

Snek,

That one with the bubbles that you just watch and you can’t do anything (I think it actually a screen saver)

Uh. That’s it.

  • Suikoden 2
  • Final Fantasy 7 (original)
  • Dark Souls
  • Resident Evil 1
  • Castlevania SOTN
  • D&D Warriors of the Eternal Sun
  • Resident Evil 1 Remake (GC)
  • Gran Turismo 4
  • Road Rash 2
  • Oblivion

Big shout out to SFA2, FFT:A/2, BOF series, Roadwarden.

10 feels too little to condense 40 years of games.

  1. Chrono Trigger

Okay done

[–] Blubber28@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Ranking is tough but I'll give it a go. The ranking is based on the impact and enjoyment I got out of them regardless of playtime.

  1. What Remains of Edith Finch & Kentucky Route Zero (shared 1st place)

  2. Life is Strange

  3. Stray

  4. GRIS

  5. Cyberpunk 2077

  6. SOMA

  7. Heaven's Vault

  8. The Town of Light

  9. FAR: Lone Sails

  10. Portal 2

That last one is a bit of an outlier but I have laughed so much while playing it, it deserves a place at the table.

[–] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I see you like narrative-driven games. Have you played Detroit : become human? It scratched the itch for me when I ran out of life is strange

This is off the top of the dome and given more time I'd probably change this significantly, but here's 10 of my favorites from a multitude of genres:

  • Rain World
  • Outer Wilds
  • Stephen's Sausage Roll

(Those are pretty firmly my top 3, all totally mindblowing experiences that surprised and awed me multiple times)

  • Spelunky 2
  • Getting Over It
  • Peaks Of Yore
  • Satisfactory
  • Dark Souls PTDE
  • Hunt: Showdown
  • Morrowind

Honorable mentions for Guilty Gear and Tekken as series, and I have a special place in my heart for the 2000 title Sacrifice, which is my eternal top pick for a remaster/remake.
