Star Trek DS9. So much good character development, plus all sorts of twists and turns
Damn. Really? I guess I'm lucky. I specifically avoided watching Deep Space 9 as a kid because TNG was on.
I'll live your dream for your buddy; I heard the show's about a non-moving ship, which still has a captain for some reason, Benjamin Sisko or something
Firefly. Babylon 5. Avatar the Last Airbender. Lord of the Rings movie trilogy. βImagineβ by John Lennon.
Firefly.
For a game it has to be Outer Wilds...
And please do yourself a favor and play it the one time you're allowed in this lifetime if you've not yet done it, as you can.
My answer too.
And also for the benefit of anyone who's just played the base game: the DLC is basically a sequel, and I found it even more impactful than the base game!
Baby Shark. Take that, future self!
Mass Effect!
Probably Kid A, although I have memories so firmly attached to it that I donβt know that Iβd want to.
Babylon 5
Violator, by Depeche Mode.
I have never had my little mind so fully blown as when I listened to that the first time.
Celeste
Og resident evil 2
Talos Principle, without a doubt. That game feels like it was made for me, I love puzzles, computers and philosophy and the first time was such a blast.
Chrono Trigger, without question.
For a video game, either Disco Elysium or Return of the Obra Dinn. Unforgettable first experiences that redefined what games are capable of in my mind.
Fantastic choices. Outer Wilds for me.
If it's music with game: undertale times a billion
Would love to experience Hollow Knight again
Eternal Sunshine would be on my list for sure, hahah. Such an amazing film. It would also be incredible to listen to Scenes from a Memory or Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence again (two of Dream Theater's best albums). Hard agree with the other person who mentioned Fullmetal Alchemist, too. Good question, OP!
The Star Wars Franchise. I love A New Hope, but it would be ridiculous to Eternal Sunshine just that movie. Other standalone movies would be Oldboy, Martyrs and The Godfather. I'd love to revisit Nirvana's Nevermind, Pearl Jam's Vitalogy and MF Doom's Mmmm Food with a new generation. Imagine experiencing Joe Sacco's Palestine, Proust's Swann's Way, Harvey Pekar's American Splendor and Stephen King's Salem's Lot for the first time (again). I genuinely love this thought experiment...
In which order would you want to watch the saga?
Same order as their release tbh. I personally prefer the 'big reveal' in Episode V compared to Episode III.
Fallout: New Vegas. I still find new stuff in it to this day, don't get me wrong. But to be able to get lost in the Mojave with no idea of the stakes at play all over again would be an absolute delight.
For music, Facelift by Alice in Chains is one of the most underrated albums of all time. If I could go back to popping that CD in the stereo, not knowing what I'm in for and realizing that I'm listening to an Appetite for Destruction-level album. I wore that original CD out. :)
Games: Nier Automata, Portal, and Ghost of Tsushima
Movies: Prince of Egypt, Confessions and The Prestige
Music: "Speak for Yourself" album, "Talent for Love" (Guilty pleasure), and, most musicals that I like (I love stumbling upon one I enjoy).
There are a bunch of games that you can only play once cause the puzzles are based on finding information. So these are my picks: Tunic , Outer Wilds, Return of the Obra Dinn.
Oh man, Obra Dinn for sure. Nothing quite replicates that moment when all the pieces start to fit together. The game took me about 6 hours, I believe. Four hours were spent furiously trying to solve the puzzles, but the last two hours were a wonderful cascade of clues falling into place until I had a complete record of the ship's crew and passengers. Masterpiece.
From the top of my head I'd say Interstellar, but i don't enjoy movies alone. Needs another wipe or somebody who has lived on the moon.
Movie: The Guard
World of Warcraft. I use to love the game but it became a slog and I got sick of making friends and getting to know people just for them to stop playing or for a guild to fall apart and then having to start all over again with new people. I met my wife in an mmo, and I would love to find a good one that can keep my attention and not be overly complicated, but I can't seem to find any.
Rainworld. Despite being a 2d game it captures the feeling of open exploration so much better than anything else I've ever played before
Rage Against The Machine self-titled 1992 album
Full Metal Alchemist. All the twists, heartbreak, even the victories against an unimaginably powerful foe, but most of all, the many, many humane moments that makes it one of the greatest stories I ever read. I really want to experience it for the first time again.
Aliens (1986)
I know it's absolute schlock but I'd give anything to watch Infinity War for the first time again.
I just loved it and still do but man ...
I would pick something remarkably awful, like Valerian and the World of a Thousand Cities. And at the end of the movie would be a note that says "I have to live with this, and now you do too."
Never pass up a chance to fuck with future self's mind.
Probably the worst movie I have seen. Thanks for making me re-remember it.
Paprika. To see the parade for the first time again... Wow.
No oneβs said it yet? I guess Iβll do it: Outer Wilds.
Eternal darkness on GameCube. Absolutely mind blowing
Ocarina of Time
Counter Strike 1.6. I wish the game never dies.
