As a general rule, I hate the idea of "Favorites", because it tends to downplay the new in favor of the familiar,

but fine, @antonhand asked, so here, Personal Top 25, in no particular order. Maybe some surprises? Maybe not? Heh.

EDIT: Also, the choice of Morrowind isn't meaningless, but that isn't thumbing my nose at Skyrim. I have played SO MUCH Skyrim (Legacy of the Dragonborn was incredible). I just think Morrowind was the last TES game that was truly great in and of itself.

@glassbottommeg I feel like I'd have a hard time making a list like this. Choice paralysis.

Interesting to see Ultima 7 in there, it would for sure be on mine too.

Surprising to me is Death Stranding; it's the only one on there I've played and didn't like.

@marshian it'll either work for you or it won't, I figure, but it's essentially a new genre, and experiencing that was profound. It's. I dunno. You can draw a line from BOTW to Death Standing. It's very cool.
@glassbottommeg that makes some sense. I didn't really like BOTW either (I know, I'm weird) but I could at least kinda understand why people like it -- maybe I didn't give Death Stranding enough of a chance, but I'm very "I'm not having fun, life is too short for this" for games.

@marshian it is very slow. The absolute best part of the game is after the end credits roll. There are hour long cutscenes.

It's impossible to recommend to anyone not willing to give it TIME, heh. Takes probably 4 hours to get to where you even start to see what it's doing.
