    Try editing so there's one title per franchise. Then you can Fit in more awesome games.;)

    I won't number it cause I can't decide on what I like more over the other. I like them all for different reasons, I'm also going to use just one game per franchise:

    • Fallout 2
    After 17 years I'm still booting up Fallout 2 and enjoying it just as much as I would back in the day. It is a game that is truly timeless for me. Sure some thing could have been improved as it is not without its flaws but it is simply the best roleplaying experience I've 'ever' had.


    • Hotline Miami 2
    Take the psychadelic haze of mass murder with an 80's art scheme and inspired music and then add a great minimalistic storyline and you get Hotline Miami 2. The level editor they got a beta out for means you'll be able to squeeze even more enjoyment out of the game.


    • Deus Ex
    What can I say about it? It's old, it's ugly, but god damn if it isn't charming. Open levels that allow for a lot of different approaches, different augmentations that can dramatically alter how you play the game. RPG elements up the ass. Great storyline, great characters, great writing. I love it.


    • The Walking Dead [Season 1]
    It's more of an interactive tv-show than a game to be honest. But whatever, the story, characters, twists and turns are all amazing and the ending forced my eyes to act all strange, some sort of salty liquid that slid down my cheek...


    • Underrail
    Only thing close to a spiritual successor of Fallout.


    • Chrono Trigger
    An amazing SNES jRPG about time-travel.


    • Wasteland 2
    Good turn-based combat. Choice and consequence. Post-apocalyptic setting. Three things I really enjoy wrapped up in a neat package.


    • The Sims 3
    Guilty pleasure, I dunno what it is about The Sims but I just enjoyed vicariously living through pixels.


    • Metal Dead
    A point and click adventure game set in a zombie setting. Lots of humor and references. I love it.


    • Mark Of The Ninja
    Good side-viewed stealth game, pretty much the only stealth-focused game I've enjoyed to this kind of extent.

    • Risk Of Rain

    • Chrono Trigger
    • The Long Dark
    • Pokémon White > Platinum
    • Stellaris if they fix it
    • Minecrfat ONLY in community servers with plugins

    Accept that some people have different opinions Arnust. Just because I like intelligent games, doesn't mean we can't get along. baitbaitbait
     
  16. :lol: It could have worked if Angry Birds Rio wasn't there
    And Bioshock Infinite last? But it had SUCH a good combat and story!

    In a more serious tone, it'd be perfectly fine if those were actually your Top ten.
    But then you shouldn't be really allowed to talk about the franchises those belong to as a whole and ridicule the janky older games being X much better.

    This is why here on NMA we are exiled from fanbases and called fags (or jerks. or haters. or nostalgic fuckers or)

    Say what you will but I had fun playing Infinite at least. As someone that didn't follow the development of it, I was completely oblivious to the downgrades.

    holy shit I'm starting to understand CT Phippy

  18. I only liked the Half Life 2 part of it, the setup before starting to kill people. Becouse then it never stops. Also, skyhook. That's mostly it for me.
    I neither knew anything of it, except that it was supposedly great.
    Some aspects and moments of the story were cool (Lutece bros and Comstock's truth) but it pulled a M. Night Shamalan to make people feel smart and at the end was pretty idiotic.
