What games do you think are unfairly snubbed when talking about the best games of all time? (lemmy.wtf)

When talking about the best games of all time people generally mention Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Mario 64, Halo 3, The Last of Us, Nier Automata, etc. , but dismiss other great games.

What games do you think are unfairly forgotten from this conversation?

Personally I think the original Dead Rising, Fable: The Lost Chapters, Dragon's Dogma: The Dark Arisen and Lunar: Eternal Blue should be talked as some of the best games of all time. They're such great and unique games!

Where are my Outer Wilds boys at?

[–] iegod@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago

I started playing the Outer Worlds thinking I had simply misheard the name Outer Wilds and found myself very confused but still kept trudging on. Thank you for bringing some sanity into my life; Wilds seems like the game I wanted to play the whole time, not Worlds. I'll see how chaotic I can fuck out Worlds before I ditch it for Wilds.

Always ready to bump my favorite game of all time, but honestly I feel this is quite a popular opinion (compared to some of the games in OP's list that are really overlooked on these discussions of best games ever).

But still, what an incredible experience, the OST for outer Wilds was my fourth most listened to on last year's Spotify Wrapped :)

Thanks for reminding me!

Yeah, it may not be as popular as Mario or Zelda, but I wouldn't say it's "unfairly forgotten". People who have played the game tend to be pretty vocal about it. And justifiably so, I've never had a comparable experience in another game. I wish I could forget about it and play it again.

I'm not sure how this compares to Spotify but I still feel pretty good about this one

For the people who do find out about it and it hooks them enough sure, it's not really forgotten or underrated. But I still think it's kinda obscure / not well known?

Not a boy but I'm fucking HERE for Outer Wilds. And TUNIC, in the same vein.
