Have you played a game that stayed in your head long after you played it?

For me, Outer Wilds would be that game. I feel like I haven't stopped thinking about it since I beat it a couple years ago.

Spec Ops: The Line I thought it was just another military 3rd-person shooter. Boy was I wrong. That thing hit me hard!

Also Oni by bungie. I like the style and I remember that the climax was somewhat emotional for very jung me.

This war of mine I cannot play this game for long and I absolutely love it for that.

There are others too but the common thing is that they were emotional for me. Sure I remember great visuals or gameplay but at the end of the day the games that make me feel stuff stay with me.

I played spec ops knowing what I was getting into, I wish I could experience it blind. I can't imagine how much that would fuck with me.

For spec ops I only had the context that it starts off as a generic shooter but that's on purpose and it becomes something much more as it goes on. I didn't know what to expect but know to keep pressing on. Didn't take that long for me to get hooked though. Absolute A* of a game to me.
