Middle earth: Shadow of war is a great example of Conquering because you literally take over regions. Fantastic open-world game with tons to do and with the expansion pack it's even better
Yes! I was quite surprised to not see it on this list actually. The process of building up an attacking force to conduct a siege, or implementing spies within enemy ranks to sabotage defences is so satisfying. Not to mention the fantastic nemesis system.
I would like to see a mix between shadow of war and mount and blade. That would be sick
I waited... but it never came.
If only we had another one but this time large enough to cover all of middle earth and it's factions. One can only hope...
Yep first game that crossed my mind in begining
Open world games with conquer mechanics have been one of my favourite genres
👌👌
Do you like RTS games like age of empires?
@@yugenheorte6828 age of empires 2 is my favourite out of the series
@@CheekyToonz age of Kings, that was my fav too, I'd play on regicide mode but instead of killing the king I'd build a Fort around him to lock him in xD
@@gameranxTV definitely seems like there's a scammer there
The saboteur was one of my favourite games on PS3, it had a certain charm about it and the black and white filter when in an occupied area is still such a unique idea. A rough diamond but certainly a hidden gem.
The saboteur is a real hidden gem. It is AC:Syndicate which happens in WWII Paris with ACTUAL progress in the regions you explore/conquer. That slow transition from B/W to colored, the transition in the background music was something that I'd like to see more in the modern games.
If there would be a remastered or 2nd version of the game, I will definitely preorder it.
It was my first platinum trophy because i just wanted to really complete it. Very underrated game.
Me too. I loved the loop of buying some ammo and bombs, going out and taking out some Nazis and a few watchtowers and spotlights then back to the merchant. Perfection. Games like Ghost recon Wildlands are the only thing close to the same sort of endless loop nowadays.
That game was just so charming in its own right. I still play it every now and again and a good bit of its gameplay holds up today. But the sheer amount of stupidity that can occur gets…hilarious. Like “accidentally” hitting the spawn cap at alarm level 5 and having destroyed half tracks phase in and out of reality.
Factsss I was so sad that studio closed
Bannerlord is actually fully out on steam since Oct. 25 and for anyone that interested in playing the game, be sure to check out the mods for the game. The mods bring in huge overhauls to the game, making it 10x better. Since the game has came out recently, lot's of big mods for game are still in development so you guys might have to wait for a bit. But even then, the base game is fun already.
Without mods, how is roleplaying? Like is it actually just conquering or is it sort of like Warband?
He probably assumed it was still early access cause it's been so long. Either way, the game has been a really fun medieval sim just like Warband
and imo even the early acccess was great. at least for ME these 2 years didnt change anything fun. except it is better balanced now, and much more optimized. ofc really good things. but there so many things i feel its missing yet. maybe they will add now that its done? hope so.
@@165Atlas The video might have been recorded before release
I am waiting for a good big Star Wars mod so I can conquer space as a sith lord
10: Satisfactory
9: Dying Light 2
8: Red Faction: Guerilla
7: Dragon Quest Builders 2
6: Overlord 2
5: State of Decay 2
4: Viking: Battle for Asgard
3: Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
2: The Saboteur
1: Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord
Viking: Battle For Asgard was one of my favorites when I was a teenager. I've gone back to it recently and it definitely still holds up
Very unique game. I hope for a successor
I wish it let you travel back to the first area though
Such an AWESOME and underrated game!
It would be great to see a sequel done by the guys from God of War. I fucking loved Viking back in the day!
where can i find it , i wanna play it
I absolutely love how for satisfactory when falcon says "look at the massive bases you can build" they show Josh's (let's game it out) abomination of a world 😂😂
Josh conquers, not just the land, but the whole game itself.
stresses xD
Josh has a....beautiful mind shall we say, just using animals to get rid of waste, he's a bit of a genius XDD
I love how you used the screenshot from Lets Game It Out with the nuclear cocoon, im glad you got that in there
Yes Godfather 1 and 2. You really felt like the Don once you took out a rival family. But damn until you did they just never stopped hitting your turf.
Man I love godfather 2 just wish I could find a copy of it again
@@happybokan8811 PS3 and 360 copies seem to go for like $15-$25 on Ebay
Godfather 1 was awesome but 2 felt unfinished
@@happybokan8811 came out on windows.
@@happybokan8811 honestly, torrent it, wouldnt support EA anyways.
I'm also playing the first on ps3 emulator.
It's such a power trip. I remember really liking the Godfather 1 videogame. Take over the businesses was awesome.
👌
You can probably do similar in Empire Of Sin but it's turn-based combat and a lot of menus lol. I actually really liked it until they nerfed the leaders/"Hero" characters.
I miss that game so much :( so good
I'm Literally Just Replaying This Game. It's Amazing Still
The Godfather and Scarface: The World is Yours were absolutely great for empire building. We'll just pretend The Godfather 2 was never made though.
I love that you included a shot of Josh's (Let's Game It Out) Satisfactory tornado of conveyor belts.
I just wanted to say thank you for putting state of decay 2 on this list. It does not get anywhere near the recognition it deserves. Plus, you have to love how the developers have supported and expanded the game, what with the bounties, 2 new maps, reworking plague hearts, etc.
I hope we get some news for state of decay 3 soon. Maybe just I missed it but I feel like we haven’t heard anything since that cinematic trailer they had like 2 years ago. Actually now that I think about it we haven’t heard much of anything about most of the big Xbox exclusives they have coming. Haven’t heard anything on fable or hellblade 2 either
I want to play this one so bad that I’m planning on buying a Xbox just for it.
I love open world games
Same here 🎮
Done well open world games are phenomenal. With that being said a good linear game can be enjoyable as well.
Except for the copy paste open world games that are the same
I like games
As do we all mate, as do we all
Red Faction Guerrilla was such a cool game at the time. Felt like it was ahead of most games when it came to the destruction
👆🏻 easily
It needs to be remade. First game I thought of.
@@henzoko5946 it’s technically already been “re-MARStered” 😂
To me it's still better than most of the newer games when it comes to the destruction mechanics.
We need more games with destructibe environments. It's ALWAYS fun to destroy everything.
The turf wars in GTA: San Andreas was the first game that came to mind when seeing the title of the video, but the video is about wayyyy more than just turf wars. Great list, as always! We ❤️ you guys at Gameranx!
6:29
I've wanted a nother overlord game like this one ever since way back when I first played it.
It's one of the very first games I can ever remember playing and it holds a special place in my heart.
Nice to see Let's Game It Out's base featured in Satisfactory. But also, his only true intention is to break every game he plays.
i mean, it is almost impossible come across Satisfactory and not mentioning the mad lad who Josh is (or at least his......... handcraft). This guy is the abodiment of chaos and nonsense 😂.
To be fair, Steam is using a screenshot of his tornado base in the store as a selling pitch 😅 would've been weird not to include it in this video
@@Nathy835 for real? I didn't know. That's dope as hell.
Conquering and taking over is always fun, especially if you're roleplaying as a Hero, building homes and setting up defenses are always my go-to, it's a nice way to tell the folks welcome, your safe!
So glad that the Mount & Blade Franchise is finally starting to get some well-deserved recognition!
The Saboteur is likely one of the most underrated games of all time. The style alone made me fall in love with it. The freedom you have in movement with its free-flowing parkour, not scripted like something like the Batman games, the stealth that works surprisingly well, and the destruction was so much fun back in the day. I still go back and play that game every two years or so, still feels good.
Fable 2 would've been a good fit for here. The fact that when you buy enough of the property available you become king, kinda makes you conquer it.
Like a game of Monopoly.
That's Fable 3 👍
@Chan man In Fable 3, you play as the child of the fable 2 character. You become king/queen in Fable 2
@@gavalon01 nope, 2 you go to the spire, 3 you're the prince/princess and have to claim the throne from your brother 👍 I'm only missing 2 achievements in 3 haha
@Chan man You become king in Fable 2 by buying all the buildings. Its a title you can pick from. In the tower dlc, you get the royal suit because you're king.
I love games like this. It’s satisfying starting from nothing and slowly take over the map.
legit playing Satisfactory right now. So happy to hear Gameranx mention this masterpiece. : )
State of decay 2 is one of my favourite games, I wish you showed footage from today instead of release because its almost had as many changes and updates as no man’s sky has had. Better graphics gameplay, maps, difficulties, mechanics. It’s now nearly one of the best walking dead community style games I’ve played.
Hehe, Josh's conveyor tornado and spaghetti belting is always a pleasure to see :D
(satisfactory part, for people unfamiliar)
😂😂 ohh, that was a fun episode..
Came here looking for the others that recognized it.
@@mjamesc07 Commentary makes one think that's a normal game of satisfactory.
Overlord was one of my favorite games as a kid. Also, now makes me feel old lol.
🤝
The fact that shadow of war is not included here is a crime.
Ooh I loved Viking battle for Asgard. Such an underated hidden gem
Viking: Battle for Asgard is just.. amazing. I had totally forgotten the name of it so now I am gonna replay it
I loved Overlord! We need more games similar to that & Fable imo.
Agreed.
I’ve been on this boat forever… Overlord and Fable are two of my favorite series.
The Godfather 2 is one of the best examples of this kind of game n_n
Agree 💯
Agree as well. For some reason though, I thought it got terrible reviews, and I never understood why.
@@jasonkluge8669 If it did, no clue why. I personally Loved it n_n
It´s awful. I rather take the first game any day (specially the PS3 version).
It's good to see Red Faction 2 in here. So many great memories, and it still holds up pretty well. In terms of conquering, then the sequel is more relevant but my heart goes out to the first which was such a game-changer in general.
M&B warbanner actually the pinnacle of medieval games. Personally I'd want to see a lot more games that allow us to conquer the lands on foot with diffrent themes.
Bannerlord is great. Warband is also great especially with the mods support
This is a great list and would include, at least as an "Honorable Mention" Vampyre. The way you move around the map and influence the districts (and how your decisions can DRAMATICALLY impact the fate of those districts) feels like it meets that conquering criteria as you laid it out :)
It did have a good mechanic and really affected areas if you uh...well, wiped everyone. Not quite as good as Scarface or The Godfather though.
Did you mean Vampyr bc I actually got that game for free and will definitely check it out if you can actually conquer regions
I remember this Game, I never finished it though...sounds like time for a playthrough
@@realgamergirl4638 It's not about conquering regions per se but the way you influence the areas. The Vampyr has a really good mechanic where you get to choose who do you drink as a vampire. But every NPC character in the game could be vital to their district. If you drink too many people or the most important in the district, the district might turn into chaos (more enemies will show up etc.)
I hop on vampyr every year or so to do a hard play through. I’ve got that game down to a science
U guys for real have the best gaming videos in youtube! Thanks for bring us this content ❤
I got Viking Battle from Asgard from the Gamestop discount bin back in like 2010. It was one of my favorite games. Great list!
I loved taking over the red zones in GTA: San Andreas by defeating the enemy gangs controlling that area, it was so much fun!! I used to play the hell outta that game, good times!
I love Viking: battle for Asgard. It was such a fun game, though I wish it could’ve had a new game plus or a sequel that expanded on the game mechanics. Or that there was a consistent source of gold, since it’s finite and consumables, upgrades, and skills require gold to purchase them. I know there was a previous game in the series that was based on Greece or Rome. I liked how the amount of troops you released increased the amount of Allies you had in sieges, and there are probably hundreds of enemies on screen, but as your troops die, enemy shamans will spawn them as Hel’s legion
So glad to see viking mentioned! I had it for my 360 and loved it!
Love how the best example for Satisfactory is from Let's Game It Out, love Josh
It feels like a king when conquering open world
👑
I know you’ve also done a list based on destruction, but I’d like to see a similar list based on how the playing area changes drastically over time. You can pull from multiple genres, such as Satisfactory, Battlefield 4, or Shadow of War. I’m not just talking about environments, but the feel of the area such as how NPCs react to you.
Red Faction Guerrila and Overlord is literally one of the best I ever played, I just wish they had more games being made cuz these series are so fun and unique to play, they were part of my childhood and ive lost count of how many times i replayed them.
I was so ready to say you forgot the saboteur but, surprisingly, you guys recognized this tiny gem. 2 thumbs up
It's crazy how a lot of older games have more environmental destruction, deeper gameplay mechanics and are just way more dynamic in general compared to games now, when the technology we have today is way more advanced. Developers used to make all kinds of crazy games. Now it's just about what investors think is best for gaming.
They don't give a shit that's it goes no deeper than that
Yeah it's all about money lol. That stuff costs money, and people are willing to buy games that don't innovate or do anything new or expensive so why do it
!!!GET OfF My LAWn!!!
No, seriously. I don’t think it’s rose colored glasses. I think you’re right.
@@schmecklin377 Money and Time Plus getting it to run with the way games look now in days it can be really taxing.
Was waiting for this sooo long
I loved seeing Lets Game It Outs conveyernado popping up for Satisfactory
Its crazy how red faction guerrila, a very old game has the best destruction even when compared to most games releasing now
Mafia 3 was pretty cool in depending on the way you divided up the city to other gangs ur underbosses could turn against you leading to you having to kill them as part of the main story, it also affected which ending you got in the end
👍🏼
JACOB SIMS MY BROTHER
I love that at 1:23 you show Let's Game It Out's base as an example of crazy. He does crazy very well.
Omg thanks, I was looking for exactly this kind of games about a half year ago, I am gonna try some of these
My first playthrough of dying light 2 was so satisfying, I had no idea how much the city would change as I made areas safe and gave territory to the survivors.

Bro
I can never get tired of open world games specially when some are well crafted and actual made a step up from the previous entries
Keep he great content coming....I start the day off with one of your videos and a cup of coffee.
The Saboteur is such a fun game! I would really like to see a successor to it
Open world game's are my ultimate favorite's!
👍🏼
Same here!
Viking battle for Asgard was one of my favourite games when I was younger and remember it very well.
I played Viking back in the day while searching for new games to play. The gameplay loop of conquering areas was pretty cool.
My issue with state of decay 2 is they did very little post launch to add to the base building. Sure there's Trumbull valley and the red talon stuff but their main focus seemed to be tweaking the zombies and adding difficulty modes. Im hoping in 3 they'll have gotten it down pat
Honestly I think the first one is better.
Props to gameranx for constantly innovating with their content.
Thank you for mentioning Satisfactory!!! That game is fantastic
I love how you featured Josh's (Let's Game It Out) Satisfactory mess!
Throw back to PS2 era, Dark Cloud, being able to clear dungeons and earn buildings that you could place that would affect the character interactions and quests. 100+ level dungeons and collectibles, unique gameplay and character weapons. was just a solid experience.
I think the major difference to the usual X4 games is the player as an in-universe person. Not some immortal controlling force. The conquest is also more plot than mechanic, imho. In many other games like Just Cause and many Far Cry you liberate the areas more than conquer. They change hands, but you have little to no control.
Im glad you used lets game it outs base as an example for statisfactory
Love the time stamp descriptions 😄
Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
In the Stormcloak Vs. Imperials civil war the whole way of progressing in the way is being sent to lead troops in different battles at specific forts in different provinces, once all enemies are killed, you conquer it. It's actually quite fun, and (without mods) it becomes really intense
Skyrims civil war quest line was the definition of half baked. Underwhelming at best.
Does AC3 & Far Cry 3 count? I had a blast conquering forts and areas in those games. Actually I think it’s the first time ever experienced something like that in a video game. I always prefer the stealthy approach when I take over different areas(Even though I’m not always good at it lol 😂)
Yeah they even said that for #10.
AC3 is my all time favorite game
I remember viking. I loved that game. I also think it's the first game that had the horde feature lol. Just exploring and running into a marching horde was tense. I would run and hide and hope they didn't see me as they were passing by. This was before Days Gone of course lol.
Such an specific genre that we all needed
Thanks team for this great video. You guys never disappoint..
I'm interested in dragons quest builders 2 😊
👌
It would be nice, if in the next prototype game ( if they'll ever be a new prototype game) that you can choose to infect the city and takeover parts of it, while recruiting other infected super powered people, to take down government controlled parts of the city.
Or heal up the city from the infection, having people look up to you as a hero, even helping you in a specific places in the story, even putting up posters.
So the Infamous games
I had Viking battle for asguard and I agree that game holds a special place in my heart. It was the ac Valhalla of the ps3 era!
I liked the conquering feature in Mafia 3. It’s certainly not perfect however there’s just not many options for Mafia type games where you are the big boss and you take over the city. There’s one of the godfather games but it’s pretty old by now and I don’t think it’s available on ps4.
You know you would think we would get more mob/mafia related games than we actually do. Mafia stuff has always been hella popular in terms of movies and tv shows so you’d think we’d see more games revolves around it
Man I remember saboteur. Such a great hidden gem.
This top is literally what I looked for
Thank you
👍🏼
Love satisfactory and love that you showed let’s game it outs build. Josh is the reason I got the game
AC Syndicate has you taking over city of London district by district with your own gang. Another HUGELY underrated game IMO.
For real? I was told to stay away from that one since it launched, but i love those kind of games. Ill have to pick that one up
I REALLY wish state of decay could make the jump to playstation
awesome content again and again😁!
Love the screen shot from let’s play!
Is falcon gonna do a face reveal
I imagine him looking like Bird Person from Rick and Morty.
@@webbie7503 yeah
Number 0.5: Tears of the Kingdom
I loved Viking. Glad to hear it get a shout out!
That was such a good video falcon
You deserve a tummy rub
Used to play Vice City Stories for hours when I was a kid. Loved the game and I really enjoyed the business/conquest aspect
1:20 LOL! was this Josh from Let's Game it Out? This looks like the work of that lunatic XD. I love his videos.
Thanks for the entertaining video as always guys. Always trust your reviews, and you never disappoints me. Gameranx is the GOAT.😎🤙🏼
Oh man overlord 1 and 2 was so good. I still have the disks and have been hoping for a real sequal for YEARS.
I‘d also recommend having a look at Godfather2. It’s simple and gets repetitive after some time, but it was fun and fits the theme of this video very well when you slap some people around and take over shops to pay you.
Huge overlord fan, glad to see they made it to a list
Viking was a solid game! I had a lot of fun playing and I always wondered why it didn’t get more love!
You know it doesn’t matter what the video is about, as long as it’s produced my gameranx I’ll always watch it!!
OMG! Finally, someone included SOD In a list! ❤️
Very happy to see Viking getting some love! That game was ahead of its time!
Love how you used a screen shot of lets game it out’s huge conveyor belt tornado
Conquest mode on Battlefront II and also Conquest Mode in Dynasty Warriors 7. Such good feels of conquering the galaxy and china
The satisfacory master piece made by Josh of Lets game it out 💪😁🤙
great video as always, love you guys.
