Your all-time favorite game? Let's discuss the best options! (lemmy.world)

I feel like my “all-time favorite” changes depending on my mood, but if I had to pick just one, I’d probably go with The Witcher 3. That game just hit all the right notes—amazing story, incredible world-building, and so much stuff to do without feeling like pointless filler. Plus, the expansions were just as good, if not better than the base game.

What about you? Are you more into RPGs, shooters, or something else entirely?

Sekiro.

Only hard until you start to understand the dance moves. Then it becomes pure nirvana.

After NG+7 I had to stop playing it and give some other games a chance.

Playing that now, just beat fake monk, next is the gorilla. Once the combat clicked for me everything made sense.

I can't beat Genichiro Ashina, but I think I'm going at him too early, but damnit I should still be able to!

He’s one of the first hard tests. You just gotta keep throwing yourself at him until it clicks. I went the other way and did Lady Butterfly which had its own pain. You have to play aggressively. Hesitation is defeat and all of that

YES.

Sekiro is my favorite game ever and I wish they'd make a sequel.

It's so good that it ruins other games for paling in comparison.

I got stuck on it and then stopped playing for so long that I feel that I need to start again. I do intend to start it again if I ever get the time to put into it.

Once it clicks, there is no feeling like it. Incredible game.

Even when I suck at a boss fight it feels like I learn something new every time, such a good gameplay loop

I'm still surprised how well received it was, not because I disagree, but just because of the numbers. It's currently sitting at 95% positive ratings on Steam, and that's with 229k reviews, for a game that plays so different from what gamers expected out of FromSoft.

I was just reading some of the reviews on Steam the other night (because it's my favorite game), and was pleasantly surprised to see that I was not alone in that view.

People who know, know.
