It’s hard to tell because I have played a lot of games but that comes to mind immediately right now. I would say:
- Red Dead Redemption 2.
- Garry’s Mod.
- Titanfall 2.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a game that I absolutely fell in love with and it’s one that I regularly go back to just lose myself in and still find new things in it. Arthur Morgan might just be my favorite protagonist of anything ever. It’s still one of the best looking games ever made. The game looks like a painting. And you know they did something truly special when they managed to make my ADHD ass enjoy just walking in a game without running.
Gary’s Mod is an odd pick for me because I almost thought about leaving it out because I cannot like don’t see it as a game. I have thousands of hours on it and most of my time has been spent exploring empty maps. It’s more of a tool of relaxation for me than anything else but it’s deeply meaningful to me. If I had to summarize it, I would say that the Source engine is my home.
Titanfall 2 is simply the best FPS I’ve ever played. Both multiplayer and solo. It’s amazing. I have spent weekends just playing the main campaign on max difficulty on loop without ever getting bored and the multiplayer was fucking fantastic.
i'm gonna cheat and give some honorable mentions. :3
- Thief: The Dark Project
- Terraria
- A Short Hike
- Portal 2
How many innovations have been canned and fucked over because the only thing it was going to improve was the shareholders pockets…
