A genuinely heart warming story that deals with strong themes of love and friendship in a way that made a genuine impact?

Undertale.

Yeah this is it for me. Half Life was such a technical marvel and a step change in story telling through gaming.

I'd argue there isn't one. Not on the scale of LotR. It cannot be overstated how unlikely it was that it happened the way it did.

No one mentions Red dead redemption. This world doesn't have any change.

A lot of good suggestions but my first thought was Final Fantasy X.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Im...not sure we played the same Red Dead Redemption 2.

[–] kogasa@programming.dev 3 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I agree with them, that game is a masterpiece. Didn't you love it?

The best PC game OAT: Disco Elysium

[–] Hawk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 34 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Which you should totally pirate, according to the devs themselves.

  • Half-Life/Half-Life 2
  • The original Fallout
  • The original Doom
  • Brutal Doom (the campaign)
  • Star Control 2 (The Ur'Quan Masters fan-made modernized version)
  • The Neverhood
  • Subnautica (not Below Zer0)
  • Duke Nukem 3D
  • Total Annihilation
  • Megaman (the first one)
  • Megaman X (the first one)
  • Team Fortress 2
  • Portal 2

This is by no means an all inclusive list. These are just games that I personally played that fit the criteria.

I always felt like Breath of the Wild was Lord of the rings animated by studio Ghibli the videogame.

I beat breath of the wild solely because I was holding out hope that it somehow got good at some point.

The dungeons and boss fights were enjoyable. But there were only 4 of those and the rest of the game was sorely underwhelming.

Tears of the kingdom is the first Zelda game I didn't care to finish in 30 years. I've even beat Zelda 2.

I feel like BotW has some fundamental design problems with lots of repetitive content, an unsatisfying weapon-breaking system, and of course it lacks dungeons. The dialogue has a lot of words but very little to say. Don't get me wrong, the open world is breathtaking, but a lot was sacrificed on that altar.

Doom. The game that solidified a gaming genre and has become a benchmark for computers. 'Can you play doom on it?'
