Watching my kids play Stardew together for hours at a time, hearing the peaceful music playing in the air,and seeing their pure enjoyment made me one of the happiest gamer dads in the world. It will always have a special place in my heart.
Man, color me envious. I’ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to get my daughters into anything for years. Sounds awesome. Oh well, love them anyway! Haha
@@grocksauce7422don’t give up dad ! You probably just haven’t found the right one for them, I believe there is a game for everyone out there 😅 hang tight it took me solid years to get mine into games at all 😂
@@grocksauce7422 love them anyway xD
@@grocksauce7422 wish you guys were my parents. I didnt even get to do fun things children do in my childhood. now I'm 15 and don't know how to ride a bike,climb a tree,swim. and there's alot that I missed out on. Now they're complaining why I'm not like the other kids playing sports,driving motorcycles and other fun stuff. They also like to compare me to other kids which is extremely pointless. But they do like how I already know how to generate profit for my self and put it to good use. Sometimes I don't spend it at all and just give them for charity.
@@grocksauce7422 lol. My daughters are 3 and 5. I've tried getting my eldest to play random games I've got on my Xbox. And she likes them but is kinda "meh" about it still. I think I need to get a Wii U
Would definitely love to see more videos like this. I think we focus too much on games that disappoint us that we don't give enough recognition to the ones that spoil us. Love this video and love the work you guys do at Gameranx!

@@gameranxTVWhat's the game in the thumbnail? It looks really good, with some very historically accurate medieval arms and armor.😊
@@fredfry5100I think that is bg3
@@JadeFenix OMG, I hate that game.😡 I know there are people who like them, but tern based strategy is the worst.🤮
Agreed, unfortunately hate/rage titles and posts tend to be incredibly popular yet.
I love BG3, it's easily one of the best rpgs in the past decade. I'm not even a huge turn-based combat fan, but I love the freedom they managed to give you even with that style.
I want to like it, because it looks good and you can see the love that the devs have put into it but….I just don’t enjoy the whole lore behind it
@@toadintheh0lethe lore is just the classic all the way from the 80’s Dungeons and Dragons setting. I don’t see why you wouldn’t like it unless you just don’t like ANY fantasy, then I get it, but otherwise I don’t understand where your coming from.
@@MrSpartan993 exactly that, I’m not really a fantasy guy
I adore half of bg3 and hate the other half. 5e was a mistake.
@@toadintheh0le that’s fair. Maybe try Wasteland 3 then! It’s from the original creators of Fallout(not bethesda).
And is set up in a post-apocalyptic setting with similar levels of character creation and choice with consequences and different skills ect. It’s really fun if you ask me!
Not the same level as BG3 but at this point idk what is.
Sometimes I wish someone would just erase my memory of playing RDR2 so that I can play it "again" and be mesmerized like the first time. This happened with me only once when I had played Prince of Persia Warrior Within in 2004.
Vanilla Skyrim on 360 is one of my favorite games, the experience of wandering through that world for the first time is an experience that has rarely been met
I remember it coming out and literally all the dudes in my grade (small school) got together because one of us got Skyrim pre-ordered.
So we spent the entire week at his house going to school and coming back to his place to play.
Each of us ‘claiming’ weapons we saw in the loading screens and just amazed at the graphics.
Freaking out over the beginning. Great memories.
XBOX 360 🤣🤣😭🤣🤣
Starfield is okay. I hope another elder scrolls game will come along.
@@Rrrafael.00 Starfield is much more than just okay. It's a great game
@@AspieMemoires I had a similar experience except it was just me and another friend over a weekend. I bought Skyrim for the 360 and he bought the guide for the game and we called it, "The Book of Skyrim" and we just watched each other play all weekend. Only stopping to sleep and eat.
I will always resent The Witcher 3 for being so good that it made me feel let down by all following RPG games I played
I could not get into that game
Meh, it was ok.
Here before someone inevitably comes in and says "uh Baldur's Gate 3 is a million times better than Witcher 3 guys and Witcher 3 is hot garbage" because of how the Internet loves trashing one game to praise another
I only just recently played Witcher 3 it was very good but not as insane as I thought it would be. But then again I never hit that point where I got so sucked in that I ended up googling builds at work instead of actually working like I did with dark souls 3. Still a super cool game to be able to play on steam deck tho
@@corrd3ll647same.
The first and brightest memory I ever had of being genuinely blown away by a game was the first time I left the vault in fallout 3. It was incredible.
That’s how I felt about Oblivion when you escape the prison catacombs.
How I felt walking out of the starting church in Elden Ring and seeing the Erdtree for the first time. Jaw dropping moment.
For me it was POP warrior within ❤
Video idea: sequels of games so good that everyone forgot about the original
Stardew is a truly magical game in my mind. One of my favorite memories was playing Stardew on an IPad for the entirety of an 9 hour flight from London to Philly. My partner and I passed it back forth, each completing a day while the other watched. I could have stayed in that moment for a lifetime.
I've never commented on a CZcams video before, but this comment I feel is very deserving of one. Stardew Valley is a game that anyone at any age can play. I actually visualized myself on a plane with my wife just passing the game back and forth. Such an amazing game.
Stardew is just a gem of a game. My girlfriend isn’t a gamer, but I got her hooked on Stardew on my Switch. She played it handheld primarily. It got to a point where she was playing my Switch every day lol. So I bought her an OLED. She’s been trying to 100% the game for months, long surpassing how far I’ve gotten. It is shocking how much the game has to offer for $15.
Ah, a gaming video focused on positivity instead of negativity. You love to see it! And so do I.
Man hollow knight is so good. I'm glad I gave this game a chance, it's one of the most memorable gaming experiences I had and I played A LOT of games. Everything about it is great: characters, story, atmosphere, bosses, combat, soundtrack. It's one of the only games that actually made me want to buy a replica of the main protagonist and keep it for me and my kid.
Was Hollow Knight better than Ori?
@@mav2553 Yes, without a doubt imo. I mean don't get me wrong, Ori is a fantastically beautiful game but Hollow Knight is a whole different level of scale in gameplay, world-building and atmosphere.
Another reason PT was so good for being so short above other horror games is that. It didnt need to dim the lighting of game down or be abnoxiously loud to scare you. Its genuinely annoying that some games think by making it so i have to squink or can barely see or by throwing a loud noise in my ears that im going to get scared. PT was able to do it through atmosphere and set ups alone.
I felt spoiled with Super Smash Bros Ultimate. All that DLC and those stages. It was a pretty legendary moment in gaming history to see Banjo Kazooie pop up as a fighter.
You lost me at Banjo kazooie
@@muteking9241 Damn bro why why?? :(
😊
P.T. contributed to pushing indie developers in the last 10 years to provide us with some of the scariest psychological horror games out there. It feels like the fact that it never came out makes it even more interesting and influential.
Visage one of the best
Which is good, but I still think it's hard. P.T. literally made me sweat I was so terrified.
It also turned a large chunk of Kojima Krazies into full-on entitled psychopaths.
I think that if pt hadn’t been released, capcom wouldn’t have switched up the formula and gave us resident 7/8. Granted they changed up the pace of the games, and weren’t as genuinely terrifying, they were some of my favorite games in the whole series
Madison is also inspired
If you’re making another list, I’d add games that gave us detailed difficulty options. Control was the first game I played that allowed us to fine tune difficulty. Another reason that game was amazing.
Dunno if you ever used the 1 shot kills option but on my second playthrough I decided to use it for a fun
I was quite surprised when the platinum trophy popped 😎
In red dead redemption two, the Horse actually swaps it’s lead to the direction that you’re riding. So if you’re riding and doing a right turn, the horse will be on the right lead and if you turn left a horse with Swap to the left lead.
As a horse rider who ride show jumpers, this little detail makes the game so much fun along with getting your horse to jump The fences
You only talk about "The Open World" detail of Red Dead Redemption 2, but not only the environment of RDR2 is a masterpiece, but the story too. Arthur's Story with High Honor and Sister Calderon encounters are something beyond a simple "open wold" game. Is something that make this game a really emotional masterpiece. It's really another level, something that is unexpected for a Rockstar. Only GTA IV was something similar on the emotional theme.
Facts.
If the DID talk about all of the good stuff in that game we’d be here all day! Gotta shrink it down so it’s not a multi hour video about all the games on this list.
Really hate how rockstar handle this title it would have been awesome if they would realized just how many people loved this game
It was a different emotion, but I found most of Trevor's personal stories highly emotional in GTA V.
I feel like all that goes with out saying tho.
For me I was spoiled by dragons dogma's sorcerer. No game has ever mamaged to make magic users feel like a force of nature that can wipe out an entire battlefield with a single spell. The tornado spell specifically is so weighty and just destroys everything.
Just picked this game back up for my forth play through and installed a mod called Max Greatsword. It turns the Warrior class into a beast adding new combos and devastating skills. A little bit OP until Bitter Black isle but also playing the game on hard mode can help balance it out.
Remember the first time you had another Sorcerer that had a top tier spell and they ran up and joined your casting… with your process? Or the chaos of going Pure Sorc for you and your pawn, plus the 2 hires, and casting grand Bolid/Glidel/maelstrom/Earthquake? The 16 meteors, or 30 seconds of 4 tornados, or the entire field turning into a spiky trampoline under your foes feet.
So much power. Or just using grapnel to hold a cyclops in a Deth Orb… because how awesome is watching an enemy just fall down dead.
I miss my Bollide and Glacier spear spell. Good lord they felt powerful and really were.
This. But with Kingdom of Amalur instead. I never played a mage before that game and have been seeking the power that that game made me feel ever since.
Thats what I loved about Dragons Dogma. They made every class feel like their attacks had impact
Stardew Valley 😍 I love that game, and it's nice to see that it gets some well deserved credit... Eric has done an amazing job and there were so many free updates, each with tons of new stuff 👍🏼
Come on Sebby we have to get the greenhouse up so we can have Blue all winter AND sell the Red.
Man, Stardew Valley will always have a special place in my heart. It's the one game that got me out of gaming piracy. I loved the game so much I just KNEW I had to support the developer.
For me Bioshock is the game that initially spoiled me for environment aesthetics, just can’t beat Rapture’s setting imo.
yeah i played infinite first then 1 then 2 and the first game had the best setting and environment. It felt like a horror game and claustrophobic sometimes and i loved it
Bioshock was the best impulse buy I ever made in gaming. 2 and Infinite came home as Collector’s editions. I practically threw my money at them for the remaster. Burial at Sea Part 2 was such an epic backhanded slap that I felt that sting for days. Nothing has ever quite gotten me in such a satisfying way before. I think that going into that experience blind had a lot to do with it.
@@aurorafinai was so hyped for bioshock. And it delivered and them some.
That is a game I would I love to see a Resident evil remake. Bring it back with current level graphics and updates gameplay (the shooting in the first wasn’t the best and shooting and using powers simultaneously, was improved with sequels).
The icing on the cake would be if they could incorporate the teleportation plasmid in the original trailer that Ken Levine couldn’t ultimately make work because it broke the game (people teleporting past trigger points etc). I think a true remake, like RE4, where they keep the essence of the game but update it would be welcomed by fans.
Yeah, it was one of the first FPS games I played back in '11 and I was like, wow, shooters aren't so bad! Little did I know how unique it was
I really hope Baldur's Gate 3 paves the way for more big-budget + big-production CRPGs given how much people are loving it. While we do get a decent number of smaller-budget CRPG titles from year to year (which are often great too), the big budget ones are fewer for sure. I think if the CRPG fan community was a bit bigger, we'd get a lot more big production games in the subgenre, and BG3 has certainly drawn in a bigger crowd than usual. SteamDB says that the peak concurrent players for BG3 was 800K so far, whereas Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous only ever peaked at 50K, and in my opinion, that game theoretically deserves JUST as much attention as BG3 given its quality. Even Pillars of Eternity and Divinity OS2 have peaks of < 100K, so BG3 might be CRPGs' time to shine!
Definitely opened my eyes to cRpgs
Awesome to see a positive top 10 list!! Great video Falcon and the Gameranx team... My pick would probably have to be Elden Ring
Honestly, I never thought twice about loading in Jak and Daxter. It was my first console game ever and it became one of my all-time favorites. Looking back, it really was a technical marvel.
They introduced "loading" screens in Jak 2 and 3 but it was probably the first instance I've seen of hidden loading. Whenever you went to a new area, you had to go through a door that would take a certain amount of time base on how long it took to load the area behind it. I didn't even notice, I just thought the door was a little rusty lol
sadly i never played jak 1 or 2, only 3. all ic an remember from 3 is a particular racing portion i hated.
Should have also mentioned the Fuse ability in TOTK, people are still discovering odd combinations that do weird things.
Like Bird Car? Aren Hansen is a mechanical genius.
All that freedom for creativity ... but for what? There is no reward for it, rather than some players feeling a sense of accomplishment. I played 250 hours of the game, completed almost 2 thirds of the world maps (sky, hyrule, depths), and now I do not have the desire to keep playing it. The devs turned an amazing adventure game franchise into a huge sandbox with shallow things to do in it.
@@georgepescod3676I mean after 250 hours of doing basically everything you wouldn’t feel the need to keep playing it…wtf this comment is absolutely r**arded
@@gagalover2k10”i played the game for 10.5 days straight and now im bored”
No witcher 3? That is one RPG which spoiled me with incredible side content and music. Every single content had a depth to it. Literally set my RPG gaming expectations to a high bar since then
BG3 is absolutely incredible. I usually dnt like turn based combat but the world and freedom blows me away.
It is sad not to see Marvels Guardian of the Galaxy in here... perfect voice acting, perfect story, perfect scenery and incredible fights with amazing music
falcon talking about bethesda and the creation engine is a whole comedy trope on its own 🤣
Loved the video! Little Big Planet spoiled us big time! The endless level designing, very cool mechanics, tons of content and the best gaming community!
Very underrated game, I absolutely adore Little Big Planet!
LBP 1 and 2 are legendary. 3 was pretty bad in comparison… although i had a great time with Sackboy!
@@kriskater I was shocked at how short 3 was! I introduced my husband to the series with it since he had a PS4 and was really disappointed by how easy and short it was. Bought a PS3 just to go back to LBP 1 and haven't completed it yet because it is not easy, haha! I don't know how my sister and I got through most of (I don't think we got the chance to complete it) it as kids. It's so, so fun and creative though, and I can't think of another game that has really hit the same notes for me.
Still no game like it to this day
Back in the COMMODORE 64 days we had to stare at a loading screen for 10 minutes before being able to play the game.
Then die instantly, rewind the tape and reload the whole friggin game.
Memories, you could go make a sandwich and finish it before the loading finished sometimes..😂
I'll admit the fact that one person can create something as big and wonderful as stardew valley is absolutely mind blowing
Ghost Of Tsushima would’ve been a good one to mention. The game was very complete at launch and just beautiful with some of the most satisfying sword combat.
They also gave us an entire multiplayer expansion that they continuously added onto, all for free.
LMAO
Is it really that good? I was thinking of playing it. Or any other game tips? After finishing Red Dead 2 everything got boring to me lol
Lmfao, Ghost of Tsushima is the most average game ever made
@@MobikSaysStuff true
@@ep. yes it is. It definitely has some issues, it has a lot of “cookie cutter” open world stuff. But the navigation mechanics they came up with are awesome. Instead of constantly looking at a mini map, you follow the wind. The wind guides you toward your objective. It makes the game so immersive. And the art design is just incredible, it’s like playing inside of a japanese painting.
Jak and Daxter was a great game, love that game. It was a real gem and I have very fond memories of it.
👍🏼
It's such a shame that we don't have a new Jak and Daxter game. I mean I love the Uncharted series but I would pay full price up front for a Jak and Daxter sequel game brought to the modern era of gaming. Heck even a remastered collection might bring me to pull out my wallet.
At least Ratchet and Clank is great, but they have a lot of loading screens though...
Whoever does the music track choices at Gameranx is a PHENOM!
Been enthralled by the tracks you guys play, as if the content wasn't my lazyboy couch already.
The most unnerving thing about PT, is that the devs made it so the "ghost" or whatever it is haunting the area is ALWAYS right behind you. Once you pick up the flashlight, the ghost is "tethered" to you from behind like a creepy backpack. When you turn around, she won't be there, because she is still tethered to your back.
This means all those times you heard some small sound behind you, or saw a flicker of a reflection on the walls and turned around and saw NOTHING, attributing it to your mind playing tricks on you, or the suspense of the game, or even scripted jump scares.....it was her the whole time. Still behind you.
Google it. It's creepy as hell.
Honestly skyrim and fable 1 hold extremely special places in my heart. Fable started the journey when I was young, and skyrim did it through my late teenage years.
For me, playing Fable 2 and 3 first absolutely spoiled Fable 1 for me. I couldn't gain a foothold in that game.
I used to never play games like those until they hit gamepass and I’m glad I finally gave them a try. Skyrim and Fable are definitely some of my most favorite games now
I have a suggestion for a video: The coolest ways to die in video game.
My inspiration for this suggestion: Dying by turning into gold when stepping on Midas' hand in Tomb Raider 1.
I agree with a lot of what you say. If you can, it would be amazing to see more content like this. Hopefully, there is a shift in buying power to reward these types of games and business practices. Punishing the wallets of the companies that take advantage of us seems to be the only way they will change. So much of this is common sense. I'm so upset with the majority of games nowadays 😢
Such a good vid man great enthusiasm behind it for the love of the games I'm definitely putting some of these on my wish list. I thought it was about the best games of all time but in actuality about games that cared the most about the gamers long term experience with it. Genius
Factorio
• The amount of tinkering you can do is amazing.
• The mod scene gives you infinite QoL improvements and replayability.
• The pricing model, while it may shock some people at first, is the most transparent in the world and I love it. This is the price, this will be the price. We hope it's worth it, but it's fine if you consider it too much, but we won't lie to you saying there's an offer coming.
Hollow Knight is just one of the greatest gifts to the modern gaming world. Cheap, made with passion, and a caring community.
Easily best game I have ever played, nothing else comes close, maybe Resident Evil 2, but that is a bit short content wise. Probelm with such games it spoils all other games for you, kinda like moving from an office mouse to a gaming mouse, after you try the gaming mouse with the superior sensor it's hard to go back to regular office mice. It's made it hard to enjoy other games, I mostly end up reinstalling it and playing it again, I have beat it like 7 times this year alone.
The original warcraft 3 and frozen throne really spoiled us with the map editor.
It was so good that it spawned the MOBA genre.
yep. It's infuriating how he didn't even mention it. The game itself was great too. Breakthrough cinematics, masterpiece of a soundtrack, surprisingly polished on release. I played the original 1.0 version for a long time, and the game never crashed and I never experienced game-breaking bugs.
One of your best pieces. Long time admirer of your work. Well said. Thank you for sharing :)
This might be one of the best list they've ever put. Thank you Gameranx. Love you guys ❤
Thanks
seeing Skyrim in lists after released for almost 12 years ago always puts a smile to my face
I'm honestly so glad you mentioned PT. In terms of horror value, I've rarely found a similar game or experience that made me feel a thrill since that game. As short as it was, it was my favorite horror game. I can't even imagine if that team had stuck through and developed multiple titles together.
I want to see a video on top 10 user interface designs! I think Blight Survival has an absolutely beautiful interface from the little we've seen.
Love the work that y'all do. Please keep it up!
Max Payne 3 spoiled me on third person shooters, especially ones that focus on movement while still retaining a cover system and how the reticle is just a dot like the previous Max Payne entries. I'm honestly worried if Remedy can match those mechanics that Rockstar managed to improve on. Additional note, Resident Evil 4 (both the more cheesy classic and the gritty remake) also spoiled me when it comes to action-horror games balancing mechanically deep action and maintaining the stress found in horror games. I'd say the Dead Space games might come close, but there's just something about RE4 to me that works so well.
Same The best TPS i have Have ever played I think if GTA6 could have Maxpayne 3 gunplay With The Warriers hamd to hand and Manhunt stealth it Could really be amazing and Build off of the amazing open Worlds of RDR2, san andreas and Bully.
Gameranx is hands down best gaming channel this guy literally talked about jaks, which i just recently picked up again just for sake of good old times but surprisingly still enjoyed it and i understand why its on the list
I really liked this video, also Kirby looks hella fun, its on my wishlist now. Thanks GameRanx, yall l33t !
You know I loved the New Kirby game! But the whole time I played I remember feeling like Kirby and the crystal shards spoiled me, because I couldn't stop thinking the entire time how cool it would be if I could combine abilities like I could in that game
Another game that I think really paved the way for free costume changed was Batman Arkham Asylum and City. You could unlock a ton of outfits and it was awesome! Who didn't get excited seeing that you could dress up in the Batman Beyond suit!
Rockstar's realism actually works against them in a lot of ways. Can't just save and pick up where you left off. Can't just quit and go to bed, no, you have to finish the mission or you lose all your progress. When hyper-realism bites you in the ass. It's a game, just let me save and go to bed, PLEASE.
I to this day can’t get over just how much Halo 3 released with. Full campaign, with 4 player local or online co-op, forge, theatre, multiplayer with tonnes of maps and game modes, a content sharing system inbuilt etc
Monster Hunter World and Rise. They gave us layered armor and weapons so could be monsters with stuffed animals while looking buff as can be, the best looking food you scarf down in seconds, thow bombs down on a monster like a little bomber plain for a moment, and released multiple titles updateds for free along with smaller event quest with more new stuff. World would also change up the multi player hub with different events like a massive party.
I really think Ghost of Tsushima should've been on this list, specifically for how the world guides you to objectives. Most games have a little compass or world map and you end up just staring at that instead of the beautiful world you're running around in. The dynamic guiding to objectives was so immersive, I'm really sad the game didn't get more attention for it than it did. I really thought it was ground-breaking.
Edit: not saying this wasn't a great list, btw. Definitely nailed it.
Nah found that game massively overrated, was an Assassin's Creed bloat and repeat.
Agreed. It would be great if more developers found new ways to guide you around the world that felt immersive. A lot of games use the arrow/compass thing which works but it’s an interesting. I also like dead space because it fits the game’s in world technology. It makes sense
It had a wind system so you dobt need to look the mini map! 😂
I think for Kirby, it helps that it was only published for and on one console. It allows a team to focus on one system and perfect it instead of spreading the team thin for Playstation, XBox and everyone's varying PC setups.
Red Dead 2 has set a whole new standard in gaming that everyone else is too lazy to match.
Skyrim and Fallout New Vegas for me, even before mods.. couldn't believe how amazing they are. How replayable, then came the mods, and I had a few extra thousands of hours in Skyrim.
Even more amazing is
- the Tamriel Rebuilt mod project, which aims to "complete" Bethesda's initial goal to realize the entire province of Morrowind in TES3, is still ongoing
- the Skywind mod project, which aims to add Vvardenfell & all its Morrowind content to the Skyrim game w/ all the benefits of its (more) modern engine.
@@zenkim6709 what about beyond skyrim? they are working on adding the entirety of tamriel to skyrim
@@zenkim6709 awesome, to think that Skyblivion is almost finished, I wouldn't be able to play it now as my current PC wouldn't handle it, but.. when I do get an updated machine, there might be already some big mods like this I can play. I would easily buy it for console tho.
'Rdr 2 was amazing back when it came out but is more impressive now'
I feel you falcon..
There's another one for an "inappropriate" video; Kirby on a traffic cone and those puckered holes in the ground. LOL
I think the Kirby entry was kind of pushing it. Considering it's not really pushing any boundaries in terms of graphics and gameplay. I don't think the patch thing is really apples to apples.
I feel it's well worth mentioning OpenGOAL for Jak & Daxter. The engine improvements and being able to play this on PC at 60fps at your default resolution has been brilliant.
They're well on their way to decompiling Jak II now as well, so we've got this to look forward to with modern hardware!
For me the game that I feel that has spoiled me the most is Elden Ring. The overall freedom of movement is not something to be overlooked. In many games I always feel like my character has a ball and chain on their ankle or are perpetually stuck in mud. When we're getting games like Lies Of P and Lords of the Fallen where to jump is conditional upon having to be running at the time. Or worst experience I've had is to play a bunch of Elden Ring then go back and play Skyrim. It's so frustrating. Even compared to the Assassin's Creed games which have a ton of freedom of movement outside combat, the combat movements are lack luster by comparison.
Unlocking a new suit in Spider-Man was _amazing_ each time.
don't know what id do without Gameranx videos
Baldur’s Gate 3 has spoiled everyone so much it caused massive disruption in the industry…without even trying to. Plus, it is clearly a labor of love that will be talked about for the next 3 decades.
I did all but 3 achievements in BG3 and it was a good game. But I've totally left it behind now, I shan't be thinking about in 30 years time.
Excellent points on all fronts. I'm always amazed on how RDR2 gets included on good lists.
Thank y'all for making some of the best youtube videos consistently for years!
I remember playing PT together with some friends back when it came out. One of the most haunting games either of us had ever played at the time. We had to take turns with the controller because we were each too spooked to keep going on our own
Gameranx you spoil us.
Get a room you 2 ❤
@@robertraymond8525 🤣😉
The Witcher 3 is one of my favorite games of all time, and definitely deserves a spot. Also FFX, the story was tear jerking even as a kid.
The Witcher 1 was released in October of 2007, there is an anime called 'Claymore' that similar in nature that was released in April of 2007 and the original manga was published in June 2001, debuting in Shueisha's shonen manga magazine until the magazine was shut down in June of 2007. After a four chapter monthly publication in Weekly Shonen Jump it was then transferred to the newly launched Jump Square, it was serialized from November 2007 until its conclusion in October of 2014. The anime premiered in May of 2009. It ran from April 2006 to October 2015 and It is totally worth the read and the watching. Think Witcher but only women can become a Silver Eyed Witch. Rated MA totally not family friendly, just a warning. Ever read the Black Jewels trilogy, you'll know what I mean. Although if you played the Witcher 3 as a kid well I think you're mature enough for it, if you can stomach it that is, try Blood Meridian if you really want to test your meddle. The one by Cormac Mcarthy is the better version in my opinion, warning if you don't know Spanish maybe listen to the audio reading of it.
How are you mentioning two of my favorite games of all times in 700+ games in the same sentence
agree on both The Witcher 3 is amazing
and FFX is my absolute favorite game of all times
@@Force-Multiplier Happy to see we're on the same page!
👍🏼
Love the video. I have loved many of these games and few that I have not played I want to play. Thanks!
Currently just over 110 hours into BG3 on pS5 (yeah I’ve been GLUED to it..). So insanely good. A few bugs and crashes that can be a pretty annoying at times, but they ultimately barely detract from what has been a genuinely amazing, exciting, emotional game.
Tears of the Kingdom set the bar INSANELY high for whatever Zelda game comes next. That ultrahand was SO fun to mess around with and the world is just SO massive.
Also, P.T, was the scariest game I've ever played.
Lol how? Botw and Totk are spin offs, and while open world games with grand exploration is a lot of fun, the original zelda formula is more fun because the formula is unique like most Nintendo games and that's what Zelda fans really want.
rdr2 one of the only games i took a TON of time just walking around and looking at the landscape and sometimes just sit there in the woods by a body of water or something and just watch things happen
I first played Vanilla Skyrim since somewhere around 2016 on a used copy my dad came home with from gamestop...The fact that I've bought a two copies of special addition (one for my old ps3, one for the ps4) as well as all of the creation content and oblivion, it's safe to say the game is nostalgic to me.
Even though Cyberpunk went through the iron hot ringer with the development and launch as we all know, i will always have passion for that game as I personally saw the diamond under the rubble, and it's going to get even better with Phantom Liberty!
Definitely agree. Also, while RDR2 is a masterpiece, comparing a futuristic city to a sparse Wild West is a bit unfair. The former is far more complex and harder to bring to life.
Baldurs Gate 3 was the first title to come to mind. I remember giving it a try, as I am someone who has never been interested in crpgs, and was blown away. Funnily enough, I was really considering getting thr new Diablo game that had just came out previously. I saw all the monetization that was there and decided to not get it. I see why people say they left Diablo 4 for BG3 as it's absolutely amazing with no monetization. Im about 70 hours into my playthrough and am still seeing how previous choices impacted my game. Im beyond excited for my next playthrough already and I haven't even beaten the game yet
Diablo 4 and Baldur's Gate don't even overlap on what they are. BG is a through-and-through role playing game. Diablo has never been more than a dungeon slasher. The monetization exists in D4, but it's easy to utterly ignore (besides, the prices are absurd beyond all reason. No skin has ever been worth $17)
I'm not normally a fan of horror games but man P.T. was AWESOME. It was so simple but oh so deliciously well done.
I would put either KOTOR or the first Mass Effect on the list here. The storytelling is great and having your choices actually affect the game was amazing. Especially when you consider all of your choices from ME having a true impact on subsequent games.
I played the hell out of both of these but would still pick KoToR as an all-time favorite.
Nowadays I'd definitely say that the ME trilogy are my favorite games of all time. I came back for a run of the three games in insanity mode after having only finished them again in 2021. The lore, world, choices and squad are damn amazing!
I recently went back to play RDR2 (after not having touched it after completing it when it released). Blew me away that it still absolutely holds up today. It would still pass as a next-gen game today with the graphics and details in the world
Being 59 and played videogames since Pong arcade machine , I’ve had a bunch of WOW’s through the years. 1983 we got Star wars on arcade. That was beyond our fantasies. Dungeon master comes to mind late 80’s. Driver for PsOne gave a grown man reason to play with cars again. Storming Omaha beach 2002 in MoH - allied assault was a adrenaline kick like never before. The latest ones for me have been Oblivion , RDR2 , Witcher3 and Kingdom come - Deliverance. But now I’ll have to try a couple of ones from your list. Thx 4 tip.
Seeing Jak and Daxter was a nostalgia trip! Still love that game!
I can't believe Elden Ring is not on this list! That game has changed what I want out of an RPG forever. I can't even go back to earlier Souls games. How the hell did we play those games without a jump button! Nothing else will ever live up to this masterpiece for me. Controls, content, collectibles, bosses, exploration and just pure fun factor. 🥰
I just started ng+5 in Elden Ring. I never have, nor have I ever wanted to do ng+ so many times in any other game which offers it. It's been so fun to experience the game from multiple perspectives. Like with the first play through or two, it was such a difficult time to get through bosses and certain enemies, but I figured it all out. Now I just get to have a blast running around doing whatever I want with the power my character has accumulated. I couldn't believe it, a few days ago it only took like 3 or 4 attempts to get through the Radagon / Elden Beast fight. 10 minutes or so and done. I spent hours on the first times, hah. I don't know how many ng+s I'll do, but I know I'm still not done yet! Nearing 700 hours, it's definitely the most time I've spent in a single game of it's kind.
I was looking for this comment. I actually thought Elden ring was gonna be no. 1 on this list.
Wait...its an RPG?
He can’t put soulslikes dude every single one is unimaginably fun experience that you can play for years, you know a community is spoiled when they complain a game has too many human bosses (ds2) if he put a soulslike on the list logically the list would just be all soulslikes
@@honaleriyou have a character that is a blank slate and you decide how your story plays out and ends, what part of any of that isn't an RPG?
Man I had one of those days where I moved slowly and barely did anything. Watched a shit ton of your videos, great stuff man keep it up. sub'd
🤝
so did I today... absolutely nothing accomplished but watching youtube... eh
R.I.P Worlds Adrift. One of the most unique survival games that never got to see its full potential. Hoping Bossa Studios brings this gem back online one day.
Another game that surprisingly never got a patch is the Shadow of the Colossus remake on PS4. It’s also very stable and bug free. Props to Blue Point on that one.
Nevermind SotC itself spoiling us on what a real boss fight can be. I maintain they inspired Dragon's Dogma to take the same approach to their larger creatures.
Kingdom Come Deliverance deserves to be on this list.. it is absolutely phenomenal in immersion and innovative branching quest design.. I have played it for over 400 hrs and still overwhelmed by the amount of detail it has.. there is no other developers out there who can replicate what warhorse studios, an AA studio with limited funds, have achieved here.. KCD is as good as rdr2, elden ring, skyrim and Witcher 3 to me... even better sometimes..
Kingdom come is a very great game but it did not spoil on anything
I agree amazing game easily up their With RDR2, Witcher 3, New vegas, San andreas, Skyrim, GTA5, Bully, Fallout3, Morrowind, Oblivion and BOTW as some of the best open Worlds of all time.
@@masterpeace7722It interms of quest design and creating an immersive world Othet then RDR2 its really ahead of alot of games.
PT was absolutely terrifying it the best way possible. I remember when I first played it on my PS4, the graphics and the immersive lack of a hub made it truly unique.
Thanks for the video y'all! Lots of really great games in here. :)
Just found your channel this evening and attempted to watch this before going to bed, never have I felt more flashbanged than a cod character 😅 love the content though!
Games that Spoiled us and just kept giving? Have you heard of "No Man's Sky"? The amount of free updates we got is unreal.
Witcher 3 not being on this list is a sin.
Amen to that
Well at least 'Hallow' knight (whatever tf that is) made it.
Witcher 3 has mid combat. It's mostly just liked for it's story and attention to detail.
Let me roll that comment back about 15 years and ask where the heckin' heck is Fable?
I think he underplayed Stardew Valley a bit there. In a single FREE patch years after release, the devs completely reprogrammed the entire game, every single line of code to make the game 100% multiplayer compatible even though it was never originally planned to be multiplayer, and then added 4x more post game content to the game as well as added split screen co-op and directly further bolstered mod support. Even now Dec 2023, almost 8 years after release they are planning on adding 8 player multiplayer, and a bunch of extra festivals, events, minigames, outfits for all characters, new farms and other shit. Oh and they also completely translated the game into 11 other languages. That's next level shit
Couldn't believe how good BG3 is. You start it and boom 3 hours later you realize you are having an absolute blast. Its a diamond in the rough.
In regards to Tears of the Kingdom, let us not forget that it also spoils us by taking only 20gb of storage, compared to the 100+ gigabytes of most AAA games.
Yeah wtf is up with that?
We can make humans in cgi that can confuse people’s parents into thinking it’s live action at points and yet we can’t shrink the game size to have more than a handful of new games on an expanded terabyte level of memory.
And it, and it's predecessor, BOTW, created an elegant memory recycling solution in the Blood Moon.
@@user-bt8ew2hz8nthere’s many games that use cel shaded graphics and still over 60 gbs. Games are getting really huge and to see a game of that size be under 20 gb is insane
Tears of the Kingdom has cartoon graphics that's why it doesn't take up much space. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out
@Legion849 I think you're massively underestimating both the graphics of Tears of the Kingdom, and the weight of even cartoon graphics.
As much as I love Baldur's gate 3, I tried getting everybody to play Divinity original Sins 1 and 2 and I was called a nerd and now every normie and their mom is like Baldur's gate. Three is the best game ever
Preeeeeeeeach
Oh, and Pillars of Eternity, which shares a world with Critical Role, and thus, Legend of Vox Machina.
That experience is so common with a "nerdy thing" everyone teases you for only for it to go mainstream and everyone is head over heels for. Divinity Original Sin 2 was such a great discovery for me and shouted it off the rooftops to anyone who would listen. It never picked up the traction it deserved. Then Baldur's Gate 3 comes swinging and people are like, "This is great!" I'm like "duh!" I've been saying it for years.
