The Mass Effect Trilogy. If that counts as 3 games, then Mass Effect 3. I just love Multiplayer.

no other game comes close to the same atmosphere. i've invested hundreds of hours and plan to buy a flightstick for elite

Yeah, it's also my favorite game of all time. But I'm conflicted about recommending it to a lot of people...

2

Hated that game. H-A-T-E-D it. Not interested in playing a brain danaged idiot.

Been wasting too much time on this lately. Bought DiabloIV for 70€ only to play it for a week or so and spend all my free time on stardew valley with my gf...

Fallout: New Vegas. You don't need to have played any of the other ones. Obsidian did an amazing job missing some of the stumbling blocks Bethesda usually hits. Its a game you can tear through in a few hours, or spend years getting lost in.

The hardest part is letting go.

Outer Wilds. Yeah, you've probably all played it, but if you haven't, please do and let the rest of us watch. It is very special.

Super Mario World.

Good variety in enemies and levels, hidden secrets, an evolving world as you progress, simple controls that are easy to understand, but also require a degree of skill to master. It's also a game that's enjoyable for ages 3-100, in my eyes it's one of the most 'perfect' games.

Age of empires II, I've been playing since its release 20 years ago and it's aged like a fine wine.

3

Hollow knight. It is a challenging game but the gameplay and aesthetic are phenomenal.

3

Mass Effect Legendary Edition, quickly became my favorite game of all time.

3

Warframe. It's free to play, you can have superpowers, has open world areas, can hunt, can hack and slash, cool movement and combat, and it's always growing in content!

3

Easily my most played game ever. I'm over 3200 hours at the moment.

2

Yeah, definitely depends on who I'm recommending to. If it's someone who's pretty familiar with games, I think it would be Elden Ring. Love the sense of exploration and discovery in that game.

3

NieR It changed me, I resonate deeply with NieR, one of the few games that actually made me emotional

3

Halo: Combat Evolved

I still find the odd person that never played it here and there, and yet everyone that tries it after says "Oh my god, how did I never play this game before?" and goes on to play the rest

3

This is a niche game and I'll look like an old fart, but Shining Force (1, 2 , 3, Gaiden) is (are) my all time favorite game(s).

2

Dragon Age: Origins. BioWare has the talent to fill your heart with lovely characters and their stories until it overflows with joy and care, only to stab a knife into it to make you bleed. Beautifully painful. :)

2

Had to know more about the person. But recommending blindly, I would suggest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shredder's Revenge. Couch coop play, fun, easy enough for kids and less technical people.

Sleeping Dogs are definitly fun though. Good choice for people used to modern GTA and the like.

2

Return of the Obra Dinn. There are other games I've played more and enjoyed more but no other game shows the potential of alternative ways of telling stories that games are capable of as well as Return of the Obra Dinn.

That's a surprisingly difficult question. Everyone has different interests, so it's hard to make a catch-all recommendation.

With that being said, I'll go with Chrono Trigger. It's a true classic with interesting characters, a solid enough story (that doesn't outstay its welcome), easily approachable gameplay, and an amazing soundtrack. It easily ranks among my favorite games of all time.

1

Ori: Will of the Wisps. Masterpiece all around and it's easy to get into, can't imagine someone not liking it

1

Portal: Reloaded

I think it's the single best puzzle game ever created and the fact that it's a free Portal 2 mod is astounding.
