StaceyPowers Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Is there a game you adore to the point where to you, it goes beyond being “just a great game?” Like for me, Bioshock has achieved a kind of unique status. Infinite in particular is arguably my all-time favourite story, above books I’ve read and movies I’ve watched, and even a lot of TV. Philosophically, the entire series just resonates with me. It’s almost weird to me realizing that a lot of people get through them and conclude “pretty good shooters, with some fun twists.” What game are like that for you, where you just take them extra seriously?

The Blackangel Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 For me that would have to be FF8. I always end up feeling close to the characters. Like they're family, or like I was at the orphanage with them. Like I'm the 7th member of the group. The story is just so captivating that the world around me ceases to exist. But I know how to keep myself in the real world. I have my babies (4 dogs, 2 birds, 1 rat) and they always come first. This is my macaw. His name is Dante's Inferno. He's an evil little bastard, but he's still my buddy. StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I think FF7 and FF8 requires their own saga or say sequels. I don't know why FF makers make new game with each time and don't continue to tell some stories ahead. I think for me Serious Sam is one such game. It has less story and more survival that's why I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Deus Ex Human Revolution was one of the most engrossing games I have ever played with solid gameplay, an excellent and complicated story and had hours of replayability. It touched on many issues we face as humans in today's world such as discrimination, corruption, and greed. StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Silent Hill 2 and The Last Of Us hold a very special place in my heart. Both have phenomenal narratives that are deep and profound. They easily rival the best literature and movies imho. StaceyPowers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted June 21, 2019 Share Posted June 21, 2019 I know many people are attached to Elder scrolls, DOTA, WOW and many other those modern games. I remember as graphics improved peoples choices also changed but they do return to those old games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
