  Bloodborne, Portal 2, Halo Reach.

  Yeah, Reach. Come at me.

    Halo: CE, ODST, and Reach are my favorites of the series, in no particular order. I guess I like my complete stories. Reach was definitely my favorite online experience of all the games though.

      If I had to pick my favourite Halo games, those would be my top three.

  Kinda hard to categorize. I mean child me would have lost their mind over most modern games, but back when I was a kid in the late 80’s having a game who’s gameplay was more complex than “shoot till you die” was revolutionary. As such I’m gonna rank my three picks taking into account to the era they released.

  Adventure. Adventure was a goal oriented… well, adventure game. That doesn’t sound like much now but at the time it was amazing. You had to move multiple items one at a time while dodging dragons (or killing them if you had the right item) to complete the game. Add in a item stealing bat and a item randomizer mode and for the time it was a truly amazing game for the time.

  Chrono Trigger. Chrono Trigger joins time traveling with standard “saving the world” storyline, but somehow it’s more than the sum of it’s parts. Chrono Trigger is the pinnacle of the SNES JRPG with the perfect mix of taking itself seriously and just being a fun RPG.

  Binding of Issac. One of the early “Roguelike unlock-a-thon” games BoI has just the right mix of “I want to unlock a new item” and “How broken will this run get?” that keeps me coming back. Granted, I’m combining the original Binding of Issac with Rebirth through Afterbirth here, but there’s enough continuity for me to group them all together.

    Yeah, old games often get overlooked but they kind of laid the foundations for much of what we had today. I remember spending a lot of time on elite, back in the 80s. It seemed so impressive back then, and really it was an achievement considering the hardware was BBC micro computers.

  Portal 2, Half-Life: Alyx, and Dishonored

  My top three would be Rimworld, Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Metroid Prime.

  I’m sure I could come up with a better list of I really thought about it, but (in this order) Terraria, Minecraft, and Portal 2. Honorable mentions to Deep Rock Galactic and The Binding of Isaac Rebirth.

  Thinking about the question I realized that my favorite game of all time (Secret of Mana) is actually not the best game I have ever played. The game I have played for the most hours and shaped my life more than any other (World of Warcraft) is also not the best game I have ever played. The game peaking at number 2 for most enjoyment and most time played for me is Diablo2. For reference the best game I ever played probably has to be Minecraft, coming in at 3rd :)

  source
• kromem@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Chrono Trigger GTA V

  And then like a dozen others vying for 3rd. Maybe OoT just because I feel like I can’t not have a Zelda in my top 3.

  source
• Mercury1337@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Max Payne, UFO Enemy unknown, PUBG

• kratoz29@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Jump Ultimate Stars for Nintendo DS.

  Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii (I have yet to play the Switch version).

  Ace Attorney Trilogy/ Hotel Dusk for Nintendo DS.

  Kinda cheating in the third one, but I am not even sure these are my favorites, they are the ones I have played the most that is for sure (maybe honorable mention to Toy Story 2 for PS1 lol).

  • brsrklf@jlai.lu ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii (I have yet to play the Switch version).

    It’s as awesome a game as it was back then, and the QoL changes are definitely welcome. The new chapter… Exists, I guess. It’s fun to play, and it’s nice to get more Melia, but the story really feels like filler content.

    I was so disappointed by XC2’s direction that it mostly made me want to replay the first one again. I had started replaying Wii version, then they announced DE, so I waited and played that one instead.

    Nowadays, it would be very hard for me to choose between XC1 and 3 for my favourite though. 3 hits right in the feels in so many places, and its main cast is so good.

    source

    • kratoz29@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I keep reading about Xenoblade 2 being the weaker of the trilogy, very discouraging to keep me in the franchise 😅

      But it should pay off as I see no complaints with X3, as you just pointed out.

  Final Fantasy X

  The first two could be in either order.

• hazardous_area@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  Hmm tough question: Xcom enemy unknown/within, dragon age origins/expansions, darkest dungeon. Those I’ve beaten and come back to multiple times and they are still fun.

  Runners up include Pokémon lg, Zelda lttp, bg3, slay the spire, mass effect, civ, and stellaris

  It’s hard to think about a 2nd and 3rd game, but the number 1 game that has influenced my life is WoW. As bad as it is nowadays, and has been for a while I still can’t really imagine not playing this game in some way. I’ve had an active subscription for probably 95% of the time for the last 14 years, and the release of classic only ignited my love for this version of WoW. I even stuck to Era when servers transitioned to TBC because I wanted to play classic so badly I put up with playing on a server that had like 2 guilds total in the beginning.

  Though I started playing FF14 a couple months ago, and while some issues are similar to retail it seems a lot more like it has old-school communities. Maybe I’ll get used to the (imo inferior) PvE design, which is the main reason I don’t see it as my new main game yet.

  Other than that maybe Portal (1 & 2), H1Z1 or og MW2 I guess, just for how fondly I look back to the time when I played them.
