StaceyPowers Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 For those who are interested in topics like philosophy, metaphysics, and so forth, what video games have you found most fascinating? I was blown away by Bioshock Infinite in pretty much every regard, but the topics which it touched upon like free choice, free will, personal responsibility, and so forth really struck a chord with me. I'm also pretty much obsessed with the multiverse, so there was that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Bioshock, Silent Hill 2 and The Last Of Us all hit home with their deep philosophical questions. Thematically and conceptually, they all hold up a mirror to mankind. And it’s not pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shine_Spirit Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Interesting question. However, I think I never stopped to think of a game in a such a deep way, haha! Maybe, because I don't face any of them in that way. Honestly, I think it would be too much treat them like anything more than just a game.

skyfire Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I think philosophy wise Bioshock and Silent Hill make the cut. You may find there is conspiracy in both of thosse games. I have also found out same thing in half life. I mean there are tangent stories on most of the games. Even the darksiders 3 has the tangent storyline and we get to learn that hosemen were just pawns of the power in the higher hierarchy. So it kind of deep in most stories.
