killamch89 Posted Tuesday at 12:53 AM Author Share Posted Tuesday at 12:53 AM I think storytelling and emotional connection are the key factors that make a game timeless. Games like The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Final Fantasy VII still resonate because their stories transcend the medium. They’re powerful and relatable no matter when you play them. While nostalgia does enhance their charm, I believe newer games like The Last of Us prove that timeless quality can be achieved through compelling narratives and universal themes that stick with players.
