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?
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
Mirror’s Edge
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.
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
1994’s X-Com.
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 shooterAlpha Protocol, Prey 2017, Disco Elysium
Duke Nukem 3D, Jazz Jackrabbit 2 and GTA 3, for me. They just feel cozy at this point…!
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.
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.
