      Portal is amazing, also the community DLC but unfortunately not my greatest.

      I’d go with something like Satisfactory or Dota 2 (gasp).

    Minecraft. Even with all the shitty updates there is so much to be done in Minecraft that it’s honestly mind boggling. Almost anything is possible especially with mods. Only downside is Microsoft’s greedy ass owns it

      I feel compelled to mention Luanti here, just in case it’s not on your radar. Also VoxLibre.

      It’s uh, well it’s done.

      And it’s fully open source so it continues to grow.

      And it’s lighter and faster and has cleaner network code than MineCraft.

      And it doesn’t have M$ enshitifying it.

      Disclaimer: I love this game and want to see the community grow and grow forever. It’s so good and I want to keep playing it until I die.

      Edit: I forgot to mention it’s completely free and runs great on Windows, Linux, SteamDeck and Android.

    Baldur’s Gate 3. Hands down. Red Dead Redemption 2 is probably number 2. That said, I have more hours in World of Warcraft than every other game combined. It was an entire lifestyle for a few years back in the day. But WoW was good because of the people, not because of the gameplay.

      I never had a C64 and was pretty jealous of this series.

      I played a few DOS based clones and various ports and they were pretty cool but from what I’ve seen everything they’ve done with the franchise since 2000 has been soulless.

    Detroit: Become Human

    It was the only story ever that has pulled me in completely. I wasn’t just playing it, I was living it. It took me 2 more days to come down to earth after finishing it.

    Breath of the wild.

    Played it on a friends new Switch and bought a Switch and that game three days later. I was so immersed in this weird and wonderful world…

    My favorite game, the game I can always come back to, is The Elder Scrolls III - Morrowind

    Grim Fandango. Despite the weird tank controls, it created such an amazing world - and all in a point-and-click adventure. My home PC is named Manny, our NAS is Eva, the router/firewall is Glottis, and so on.

    Also, Psychonauts. Just a perfect 3D platformer.

      Have you played Psychonatus 2? How does it compare? I haven’t, but I’ve been wanting to, but I also have limited time, so I’m looking for the next game after Baldur’s Gate 3, which I’ll complete in the next 3-4 months with my availability lol

        I have. In fact, I backed the development of it.

        Definitely worth playing. Maybe a bit less memorable than the original, but also a bit more consistent. There are no huge difficulty spikes like the Meat Circus in the original.

        The story is a bit more complex, and a bit more muted. Most of the levels are less memorable. But absolutely worth the time to play and enjoy.
