- Halo 2, I know most cutscene quotes by memory
- X3: Terran Conlict, huge time waster, janky, infuriating and I love it
- ~~Chromehounds~~ (not really, I lost the CD and my X360 is dead (Armored Core ain't got shit on Chromehounds, fight me))
- Crysis 2, better looking graphics than all the AAA games *I* have seen in the past 3 years
- Terraria, it's Terraria
- Starbound, it's Terraria but in space
- Valheim, it's Terraria but you're a 3D lowres viking (it's low resolution textures exhalt my love for normal mapping)
Patient Gamers
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Undertale
Virginia and What Remains of Edith Finch are two of my favourite narrative experiences. I've played through both of them a few times and I'm always eager to go back.
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
For me it's probably "Golden Sun" from GBA (and "Golden Sun 2"). I played them at the time on the original GBA at least 3 times each, and on emulators in phones & tablets a few more. I liked the story, the graphics, the combat system, the endless possibilities you could do, the discoverability, hidden corners, the different regions, the global map... If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it, it's full of nice things.
KSP, Skyrim, and Witcher 3. Sometimes when I particularly hate myself I'll play Dark Souls
I've read the whole thread and nobody has said Spintires/Mudrunner/Snowrunner ... it's basically the same game, it just keeps evolving and it's impossible to really complete because by the time you do there's more levels released.
For me, driving big trucks through mud is repeatedly appealing.
Into The Breaxh, Sekiro, Psychonaut 1&2.
They are so satisfying and not too long. Factorio is a bit too demanding.
Sacred Gold, the first game of the sacred saga Age of Empires 1, 2 and Age of Mythology Star Wars: Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy Titan Quest Grim Dawn Warhammer Dawn of War 1
- Kingdom hearts 2
- Kingdom heart 358/2 days
- Minecraft

- Far cry 3
Metal Gear Solid 3.
So hype for the rerelease and the remake
Metroid Prime trilogy
Skyrim
Ocarina of Time
For me it’s San Andreas and Final Fantasy X
San Andreas was so ahead of it's time. I think it's one of the few open world games that managed to do it right
It’s so annoying how open world has become pretty much the default for so many games now. Especially now that games take so much time and money to develop, I can’t only think of a handful of open world games from the last 10 years that were deeper than a puddle
Minecraft (modded and unmodded)
Creeper world games
