Gaming

According to MetaCritic, Zelda: Breath of the Wild topped "best games of the 2010s" lists, appearing in 1st place in 17 of these lists. In 2030, what game of the 2020s decade will appear on the 1st place in most of these lists? (It should be noted that we are in the middle of the 2020s decade so this may change as new games get released).

Hello?

Is this the... based department?

Loved the tomb aspects of Tomb Raider and the more puzzle'y parts of Uncharted, any other favourites in the genre regardless of age?

I'm on pc and switch

What NES games can still hold up today, in your book?

Any obscure ones or hidden gems?

So, there's a mission that straight up isn't beatable as far as I can tell. Even on Story Mode.

You have to prevent stolen Clan Mechs from fleeing so they aren't captured by whoever.

Only hitch is, if you pursue them directly and down them you'll get absolutely shredded by their escorts. And if you pause pursuit to deal with the escorts they 100% will get away and you'll fail the mission.

Also the controls are crap. And performance is iffy on Series S.

Otherskin is a third person shooter that plays like your favorite, obscure, janky action adventure game from the PS3 era. It has a lot going on, with unique powers you absorb from defeated enemies, an array of weapons and power-ups, and a story that feels a lot like Returnal.

Inb4 - Yes I know it's a me problem. I'm not the target demo. I've just been a fan of the franchise since I read The Sin War as a kid.

I'll play through a Diablo once. As a necromancer. Exclusively as a necromancer.

Everyone I know is a gatcha addict. All they care about is ever growing numbers. Bigger damage. Filling paragon boards. Torment levels.

I just wanna play through the story content. Once.

For me Genshin Impact and Hades (including Hades II) are two examples. These games have relatively simple art styles in comparison to e.g. the realistically painted art of certain Blizzard games (WoW, Hearthstone hero portraits), but they are hard to learn even to someone more advanced in art creation.

Mine are Half Life and Morrowind.

I feel like back when I didn't have a massive game library I would have spent so much time replaying Half Life and exploring every inch of the maps and trying to find exploits to break the game. The massive modding community likely would have kept me playing for years.

Morrowind probably would have gotten me a lot more into RPGs and fantasy games. I do love RPGs but still struggle to immerse myself in fantasy settings. I assume this is because I mostly played SciFi games growing up.

What about you? Is there an MMO or something you maybe tried and gave up on to soon?

It's way cheaper than the app store and Steam and Humble Bundle

It's just behind the PS2 and Nintendo DS right now with 143 million units sold.

I don't really buy games much these days. I was trying to see what games would work on Mac and was pleased to see a new Assassin's Creed game is coming out on Mac natively. I was pretty stoked with this news, I've never played any of the AC games but they've always looked good.

I thought I'd check the Apple App Store to see if there were any other AC games that might already be out and there was only one option (actually on some 'App Store Preview' thing not the actual app store), called Assassin's Creed Mirage. It was listed as free to play with in-app-purchases. I'm really just not participating in that, can't stand that shit. I don't think I've actually bought any Ubisoft games since the Nintendo 64, are they all like this or is that just some unfortunate anomaly? I noticed also that it'd listed them collecting data about me, which, WTF?

Keen to wait till November for AC Shadows but not if it's going to be any of that nonsense.

Not mythology themed games.

Examples:

1. The Legend of Zelda games are often considered the best video games ever
2. Super Mario Bros. was the best selling video game of all time until 2009
