Do you have that "One Game" that you seems to come back to every year like a clockwork? Replaying it either just for the sake of it, nostalgia, or even finishing it again?

I got a few. Skyrim is one of them but it's most likely just to have fun with installing mods and then play it only for an hour xD But I got one that I always replay and finish once a year, which is Mass Effect Trilogy, and recently the Remastered version of it.

How about you?

Mirror's Edge

Classic Doom/Doom 2, as there's an endless number of wads and mods for it, I would say I play it even more than just once a year, its probably more like a few times a month

[–] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Not every year, but I've played through Morrowind completely at least five times, And each time I'll spend a couple hundred hours easily in that world.

Dwarf Fortress, going on 15 years now!

For me it's gotta be a driving game of some sort. Whether American/Euro Truck Simulator, or one of the Forza Horizons, or Dirt Rally. Whenever I'm itching for some escapism I'll play those games while catching up on podcasts. No Man's Sky as well

Perfect Dark
Still the best couch multiplayer shooter

Alpha Protocol, Prey 2017, Disco Elysium

Duke Nukem 3D, Jazz Jackrabbit 2 and GTA 3, for me. They just feel cozy at this point...!

[–] meatbag@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Uncharted series is fun to go through. Civ 5 also, but I have to be careful I don’t lose three days of my life.

[–] Kranerian@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I replay Knights of the Old Republic 1&2 every so often. They're just so cozy to get wrapped up in.

Ocarina of Time. Sometimes emulated, some times OG N64 and sometimes on the 3DS. Fav game of all time

Tetris, The Crew 2, Worms World Party / Reloaded and Tricky Towers - sometimes with my son (10). Yeah, looks like I'm old school hrhr

My all-time favorite is still Tetris - in all variants. For years I loved to play Kirby's Avalanche.

I also remember playing Duke Nukem 3D and Quake 3 Arena for a decade or so.

Skyrim but I feel like that's a free pass for most people. Besides that, Bioshock always seems to re-appear on my desktop and get a playthrough.

[–] leptirica@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Night in the woods. It resonates with me a lot, plus Greg rulz

[–] InterSynth@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Deus Ex, for damn sure.

[–] bl4in@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 year ago

I periodically return to TES III: Morrowind or Gothic 1 & 2.

[–] terrrmus@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

City of Heroes and Ultima Online (Outlands).

[–] tal@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead

Single-player, open-world post-apocalyptic zombie survival roguelike. Always has new stuff being added to it and has for years. Come back after being away for a bit, and there's a ton of new stuff.

[–] tangelo@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Wazhack. Still haven't beaten it. It's a traditional roguelike (cf. nethack) presented in the unusual format of a 3D sidescroller. The dev is prolific about updating it year over year. Trust me on this one, game is a mix of hilarious and infuriating

[–] popekingjoe@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Earthbound and Super Metroid. I love the games so much. I also do The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past every other year or so.

[–] EvaUnit02@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

1994's X-Com.

Any Fallout game but mostly New Vegas, I kind of gave up gaming when the 360 reached end of life then when the Switch released I had to have one. Zelda and the Witcher 3 and Skyrim were great on it but the lack of decent games left it languishing in a drawer.

I bought a Steam Deck last year and it completely blows the switch out of the water. I absolutely love it. I don't have the time to get set up in front of a TV and play a console but the deck is top class. Pick it up and put it down. Considering I mostly play 5 years or older RPGs it is the ultimate machine for me. I've even been playing EA golf games via emulation that run great. I even got Dopewars running on it.

But yeah New Vegas all the way, I'm currently playing Fallout 4 mind u.

You ever played New Vegas modded with A Tale of Two Wastelands? Or New California?
