Outer wilds is the only game I’ve ever played where I thought to myself that everyone needed to play it at least once before they died. I’ve never in my life experienced something that made me feel so at peace with my own mortality. That may sound grand but once you’ve played it and gone through the journey and experienced the end, only then will you get it.

Despite the initial hate, Cyberpunk 2077 really did have an amazing story for me and left me wanting more. Other people have also been saying Outer Wilds and I can confirm that it can genuinely be one of the most amazing games depending on what type of player you are. For me, it took a little bit before I was really hooked and the pieces started to click together but once they do, there is almost no other gaming experience. The best game that you can't talk about, the best game with absolutely no replayablility.

Going into the painting inside of Oblivion was one of the coolest things I ever found in gaming.
I love Morrowind and Skyrim, but Oblivion truly is special. I love how every NPC has it's own personality and opinions on the world. The game doesn't take itself too seriously, it has a lot of funny quests and NPCs (which are taken to a whole new level in Shivering isles). I love and play Skyrim for it's world (and mods of course), Morrowind for it's hardcore RPG mechanics. But when I just want to have fun I always play Oblivion.

Heard it was a mediocre open world game from that one 2 hour long video we all got suggested
I remember playing Inside right after I finished the main campaign for Skyrim, and in 3 hours the game blew my mind more than 10 days of Skyrim did. Such an amazing game!
Cyberpunk is for sure a game everyone has to play. The immersion of the game itself is unmatched in the gaming industry imo. The way the world feels so alive makes the immersion so much fun, along with it being first person, and even basic game fundamentals like combat, story, and weapons are amazing too. Really excited for the next installment in the series too, and hopefully Project Rekt learned from Cyberpunk’s initial launch and delivers an even better game “on release”😅

Cyberpunks side missions just hit fucking hard, the storytelling is just so believable.

The farm side quest... Man, that could have been a GREAT game on its own. And Panam is just a character like no other. Likeable, empathic, strong, not afraid to be weak, cocky, intelligent and silly alltogether. With all this "but man have to be presented that way, woman to be presented that way", just give us good and fun characters. On a side-note the expansion Phantom Liberty will release in September on PC and next-gen only and I really do hope that a lot of things they wanted to be in the game was cut out simply because last gen couldn´t handle it (better NPC AI for example).

Yakuza and its spin off judgment are a master class in story telling and some of the few games who set in modern times without any “war” aspect like cod mw.

@thomasnielsen5580

Nope 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Many good things can be said about the Yakuza series, but it's definitely not it's storytelling. Now, I'm not a definitive expert on this as I have only played Kiwami and parts of Like A Dragon, but the sample is enough to justify it not being "master class in story telling". In Kiwami, you don't know who 75% of the cast is, it's just name dropping in every scene with the associated clan or family attachment to it. The ones you remember are either the very important characters (like the kid or the character you play as) or it is some that has very distinct characteristics, like the fat guy without a shirt on. They seem to have learned this by Like a Dragon, as I did not face the same issue. However, the cutscenes, the are so long. I usually don't complain about this, I have played Kojima games after all, but between chapter 3 and 4, there was a 30 minute cutscene (5 cutscenes without a break). That's too long, and it could be reduced to maximum of 4 minutes, as 90% of it was exposition that is not needed, it makes perfect sense to a 10 year old kid (this is not inception or anything that requires above average brain cells). So boring, and there are many instances of this throughout the game. That is just examples and I could go into more fundamental issues that plague the games in terms of narration, characters and thematics that just highlights how far it is in terms of 'master class in story telling'. In my view it's average story telling, maybe below it even, but they are still fun games to play.

It's fairly short and sweet, has a super cute art style and a really well done soundscape, and the story and gameplay work in tandem beautifully.

The amazing story and depth of every single character, item and area paired with the rogue like elements which provide a constant feeling of progress and challenge just made it addicting.

@@FranklyGaming WTF duuuude you'd love it!! Don't be a graphics-addixted Zoomer, if you can play Oblivion, you can play VBTM, I have almost the same taste as you (not nearly as eloquent and patrician of course) You'll enjoy playing it, guarantee. The only true RPG experience.
My husband and I played “it takes two” and I can’t tell you the emotions we went through. We’ve been together for 8 years and we have a 4 year old daughter and the first 3 years of our relationship before I got pregnant was wild… we shouldn’t have made it through the things we did. As a couple and as individuals. But we did. Then after we had our daughter things changed. And after a while all relationships go through changes. Especially with a child added. But I can say with true honesty that playing that game made us have fun together as a couple rather than just a family, we learned we could work together to get better results, we learned how good we are at communicating and how well we knew each other without a word spoken and how lucky we are to have that. I cannot recommend that game more highly. He and I both play very different games, neither of us are really into that type normally but wow did we identify with that one on so many levels. If you’re looking for a game to play with an SO, that’s the one.

I watched this video around 6 months ago and added Mass Effect Legendary Edition to my steam library. In 15 years of gaming it became the best video game I have ever played, overtaking the likes of Halo, Call of Duty, Fallout, Elder Scrolls, borderlands, gears of war and Cyberpunk 2077. My god what an experience, I laughed, I smiled and even broke down in tears on multiple occasions. Thank you for making this video.

A few games I'd add to your list: Vintage Story - A pure survivalist game that stemmed from Minecraft, and was originally one of it's mods (TerraFirmaCraft). Collect sticks and knapp flint into toolheads, pixel by pixel to make a tool. There are no stone picks, so you need to collect metal infused pebbles, and smelt them for your first pick and hammer. Make alloys of different types of bronze. Smith iron on an anvil, pixel by pixel... once you find iron, which might take you a real world week to find. It's the most realistic 3D survivalist game out there. Starbound - 2D platformer sandbox where you hop from world to world, system to system to gain resources, fighting a huge list of enemies in a large list of biomes, many more if you add the Frackin Universe mod. Take the main RPG questline, or ignore it almost entirely. Take side quests, build a home, a populated city, rebuild your ship to your heart's content, or build a populated mothership. Survive alone, or build a small army to fight with you. Be a fighter, a colonist, a quester, miner, or even a bee keeper, and collect just about anything you encounter as a pet... just don't keep titan pets anywhere near your base...
Johnny said the deepest rockstar speech I have ever heard in my whole life. I read it in my notes when I need motivation

when i think of games that should be on a list of "must play" games' , i think of games that cahnged the face of gaming when they released , or games taht were so different and unique that few if any one (other games) copied them. here's my list of must play games 1. Pac man. the one and only the original. 2. Super mario bros. This game single handedly invented the platformer. 3. The legend of Zelda . no explanation needed 4. Sonic the hedgehog 5. Teenage mutant ninja Turles : turtles in time (arcade original or SNES version) . sure there are other non liscened IP beat em' up i could have listed like double dragon. and while iconic in it's own right , no beat 'em up quite nailed it like the TMNT: TiT. 6. Mario Kart (pick one any in the series will do here) 7. Doom (if you haven't heard of this game , what rock have you been under) 8. Resident evil 2 , sure it's the sequel but in imo the OG RE2 was the pinnacle of the survival genre , and the RE series hasn't come close to being this good ever again. 9. Dino Crisis . it's RE but on crack with dinosaurs ... why hasn't capcom revived this series? 10: Halo Series cause you can't play just ones oh i'm sorry were you epecting a list of more modern games that only exist because somehting else existed first .. but just only looks prettier than what came first. well ok i'll give you what you want . 11. Soul calibur. The Dreamcast original is one of the best 3d fighters ever imo. and while the first game on PS1 (soul blade) was good as well , this game (soul calibur) sold Dream cast systems back in the day as one of the DC launch titles. 12. Mechwarrior 2 mercenaries , and mechwarrior 4 mercenaries; for the PC only fnas , these two are must play games. (though i prefer mechwarrior2 ) you'll ahve to build an old win 98 system to get it running 100% right. so i threw MW4 on ehre as well because you can still get it to run fine on windows 10. 13. Dark souls 3 or Elden ring. again listing two because they are so simular, i'd go for DS 3 , but if a linear pathed world isn;'t your thing , then go for elden ring. 14. The legend of Zelda Breath of the wild. it's zelda but then it's so different from most other zelda games. i kinda missed the old dungeon puzzle crawler game play of older zelda's but not enough to make me dislike this game. i'm finding it's direct sequel harder to get into though. 15. Mass effect series. play them all. period. 16. Baldur's gate 1 and 2 Plus expansions. this here is one of the best crafted game stories of all time , and it's where bioware got their start. 17. Knights of the Old Republic 1 and 2 . another bioware master piece , wrapped up by Obsidian ent. with KoToR 2. both games are masterpieces 18. Elderscrolls 5 : skyrim. i personally will always prefer ES3 morrowind , but i recognize that many people were turned off by it's more RPG elements that said i can't go with his oblivion on the list because the story jsut broke a cardinal rule of game story design. Never make the biggest "cheese" a npc. in ES 3 , youw ere the Neverine, in skyrim you were the dragon born. in oblivion you were just the guy/gal helping the emperor's son fullfill his destiny. it really took the fire out of my desire to play the game any more when i realized my cahradter was not the big hero in the end fight , instead i was just a lacy dodging this crazy battle between these two god like entities, just like every other nobody citizen. it felt anti-climatical. 19. Neverwinter Nights (and all expansions). another bioware classic. bioware actually set out to create atoolset for players to create their own DND 3.0 games online . however their publisher at the time (atari) wanted them to make a game not just the engine , so they did. the game itself is great the story is typical old bioware polish and the expansions even expand on that. 20. Final Fantasy VII . another oldy but one EVERY one should play , and not the new remake , talking the original especially now you can get it on steam or jsut about any console online store i'll end my list there it could go on up to 50- easily. most gamers play at least that many games in their life i'm sure. me personally , i have played more games than i can imagine to count , having been gaming since the atari 2600 days LOL (gen Xer here).
Honestly I thought you would of added Nier Automata. This game was incredible and left me emotionally shaken. One of the best games I've ever played.

It makes you question almost everything happening in the real world, it's a combination of art and philosophy.

From these games that you share, I only played Inside and it is a fantastic experience. I don't find other game that 'touch' me like Inside did. I think the pacing played a major part of it, and with just around 4hr (it is recommended to get all ending), it rests in me for the whole life.
Thank you so much for putting starcraft in this video, it was my childhood, my first game ever to touch on a pc.
My top game series of all time is Mass Effect Legendary, and ME1 is the genesis of it all. I have never been so involved in a game, story or experience. The characters are rich, the story is deep and affecting, and the choices are - sometimes heartbreakingly - impactful. Incredible voice acting and music as well. One of the best, if not THE best. When I finished ME 3 I was gutted. Then I went back and played through the Citadel DLC again (more than once) and did the final battle again. And was even more gutted. I can’t even hear the ME1 opening theme - or the ME3 final music - without tears welling up.

Glad cyberpunk is finally getting the attention it deserves. I've been playing since launch and because of my love for Bethesda games I didn't mind the bugs that much. The story, characters, soundtrack and the city itself are all so cool. My only real complaints stem from UI bugs, the oftentimes inconsistent combat and the fact that it's main story is waaaayyyy too short. Luckily the side missions and everything else makes up for it, for the most part since some of its story is told through lore entries after doing NCPD scans and whatnot.

I really wanted to enjoy this game. I finally played it a couple years ago and yea, it was kinda meh for me. It did have a great story and INCREDIBLE music, seriously great music, but the gameplay and the game difficulty felt super out of whack. Idk. And yes, i did the 5 endings or whatever

@@mrpetebojangles21 I was hooked with the story and the score, but I found the combat to be just ok. When you finish that 5th ending, the game feels like it loses the replayability considering how much you already put in to get to that point.

I tried to get into that game. Problem is, if you get killed in the hour-long intro the game starts you over from the beginning. After wasting 4 hours getting nowhere l gave up.

I'll add something that isn't (always) recommended: Stardew Valley. The game is so enjoyable no matter who you are or what mood you're in. It's surprisingly deep for how simple it is, and can keep you entertained for hundreds of hours. It's also designed solely by one guy in it's entirety, so it's great to see the passion and care put in to it. Highly recommend

Stardew Valley is one of the best indie games period. I remember a summer where me and a friend were addicted to this game.

It's harvest moon should be in the list than stardew valley, as it basically ripoff

Yup. The best way I can describe Stardew Valley is it just feels like home.

@@OSTemli An argument that I would make is that Stardew Valley took elements from Harvest moon among other games to bring this genre to the pinnacle of the industry.
I also think you should add Pokémon to this list. Pokémon Diamond or one of the og blue yellow red or crystals. Had the privilege of playing my older brothers crystal on his old gameboy. It was so amazing, this little world in the palm of my hand. You get a real connection with your Pokémon, you find them as babies, you catch them, raise them, watch them grow and flourish, and you and your Pokémon go on wild adventures experiencing everything for the first time together. It's amazing and nothing compares.
banger list. 10/10. cyberpunk is my # 1 choice, i think everyone should experience it 3 times, each run with a different "mindset". one where u roleplay v, one where u roleplay a hero, and one where u roleplay a villain. i loved it day one, bugs and all. but it only got better over time. i have completed it 7 times and recently started an 8th :)
Dude, you're videos are smart and well made. This channel is an intelligent and welcome break from the often unfounded negativity of the games media. You identify and focus on the truly great things about gaming instead of what games get wrong, and make the point that the things a game does right often overshadow their shortcomings. Games media turns people off to what could be truly life changing gaming experiences. Thank you.

Metro series games. Shows two different sides of humanity in times of major crisis and life and death scenarios. Some choose to survive and become feral, resorting to inhumane treatment of others, others still hold their sacred values close and look out for one another, joined by shared aim of living a better, happier life than that they were dealt. Great video

Just wrote that same comment, its genuinely the best thing I played. The exodus ending almost made me cry and im not like that
I appreciate oblivion being on here but Skyrim should definitely be on here too, even though they're both similar they're also still quite different. Skyrim has probably had the biggest impact on me gaming wise, it's what truly got me into gaming. Another game I would say people need to play at some point in their lives is borderlands 2, Handsome Jack is probably the best written video game villain ever and I got so invested in the story
3 games in atm, but this list seems like a good cross section of different genres and gameplay styles. These may not be a list of the best games, but I think it hits a good intersection of games that are amazing to play, but not just all games we've all played before. IE: Oblivion instead of Skyrim. It's a list that will most certainly have some games you may have played, and some you haven't. Solid work.
Cyberpunk had me from the beginning. A few weeks before launch I had just ended a 3 year relationship and moved back from atlanta to my shitty crime-ridden neighborhood states away. It was so surreal hearing somebody ask V “how was atlanta” and him giving a vague non-answer. It was exactly what I’d been doing in my days before launch reconnecting with friends. That game hit me hard fr.

I remember playing Mass Effect on my second hand Xbox 360 in early 2008 just after it had launched and it just blew me away, I was 10 and could not believe how much lore and world building was in one single video game, absolute classic that game.
Finally someone who mentions PREY , when i played that game i was so impressed, a Halflife/Bioshock had a baby game , that was one of the best games released in years to come when it came out IDK if you ever played Returnal, it's a really good game, itr looks simple and just a simplistic game kinda like a oldskool game , just running around shooting things from third person while avoiding projectiles, but the story and the combat had me blown away, it became one of my all time favorites as well
maybe a strange one but i would have put west of loathing on there too, with what you said about the importance of well done comedy, west of loathing has had me in tears laughing from the get go, as well as allowing choices to the player, do you choose to follow the path of the necromancer to be more powerful or avoid it, so many fun secrets to uncover, what a great game.
