Bioshock 2 is great though. It has the best combat of the series and the story is more than passable. Anti Bioshock 2 narrative was all propaganda because Ken Levine didn't work on the game. And the people who spewed that propaganda don't even believe it any more since Ken is a little too based for them
>Bioshock 1
It peaked at the point where the player meets Andrew Ryan and it's all downhill from there.
If we replace "finish" in OP's pic with "reach mid-point" then Bioshock would fit that image but I can't say that finishing Bioshock left me in that state.
The fact that underaged kids still try to bait with it says a lot about the enduring quality of that game even today. CT enjoyers are old enough to recognize bad bait attempts.

This is one of those shitty opinions that newbies got from youtubers, it’s the same garbage take as “Sonic was never good”.
>“Sonic was never good”
CT was a phenomenal game for its time and there still things about it that are timeless. Sonic though, sonic was never good. That's a fricking fact.
Everybody on Ganker and Reddit loves to dog on TLOU 2, but unironically that was the game that left me like that.
The themes of revenge and forgiveness really resonated with me, and I loved seeing Ellie slowly forgiving Joel and realizing how much she actually loved him after it was too late. I unironically think killing Joel and letting the game have slow-burn flashbacks with him was an entirely better idea than having him be some badass sympathetic anti-hero that never dies.
>Because of that cutscene at the end?
No, because of the entire length of the game being filled with various flashbacks, Ellie thinking about Joel, and the journey of her going after Abby. >Forced to feel 15 hours of sympathy for that mangirl
I genuinely can't comprehend how anybody can play the game and not at least TRY to see things from Abby's perspective, and that's the whole point of her story. It doesn't tell you that Abby is in the right, nor does it with Ellie. Merely that you can't possibly have the whole picture from just one perspective and people that you automatically deem your enemy might not see it the same way as you. It's a basic lesson in empathy and if you can't see it, you are either blinded by selfishness, sociopathy, or by tribalism by already deciding you're on Joel's side. Here's a shocker: his story was done, and he also was not a good man for most of it. Just because the first game made him sympathetic does not absolve him from any wrongdoing before he was murdered. You're supposed to go on Ellie's journey of being pissed, wanting revenge, and eventually realizing that living like Joel and Abby did are not the right way.
>Because of that cutscene at the end ?
Not him but-
Although I would've loved that game with or without said cutscene, I do think it's the best ending to any game and cemented the overall story as a masterpiece.
The plot is very cleverly and carefully paced and structured throughout, and then everything finally comes together perfectly at the last second. Absolutely beautiful piece of storytelling.
>it's the best ending to any game
This is bait, because TLoU1 has the actual best ending, and nobody in their right mind could think the TLoU2 ending comes anywhere near it.
That game was a masterpiece anon and I say that as someone who found the first one a bit unpalatable. Nobody that played the game actually hates it. Don't let these homosexuals gaslight you.
Cyberpunk 2077. I played it at launch and couldn't put it down. I was one of the lucky ones to have a mostly stable experience. I couldn't put the game down until I had done all five endings. It was ethereal. I havent had a game give me that kind of experience since. Don't Fear the Reaper is the best ending option. Never stop fighting, Ganker. Never stop fighting.
I played it recently. I didn't think it was that 10/10, I thought it was good but I've been questioning my mortality recently and I blame this fricking game and it's message. I got affected!
It was a huge relief to finally be done with that game and hear that motif completed.
I couldn't make it through 4 and just watched the anime instead, which did lessen its impact compared to forcing myself to sit through an 80 hour jrpg.
Hell yeah. When I was 12 that ending with Altair in the 11th century discovering the globe Earth model was mindblowing. Then the Abstergo plot and the markings all over the walls in Desmond's room from the previous Subject. It was very very interesting and Assassin's Creed II perfectly followed it up. God I fricking loved those games.
Most recently Outer Wilds. Sadly modern writing has gone to shit, everything is written for literal morons, nothing really touches me anymore and I don’t know if it’s because I’m getting old and bitter or the industry is really in shambles.
For me it was the complete opposite >Main team raids the Capital for reasons I think I understood but turns out it wasnt what I thought it was. >Somehow we are not made to be like massive terrorists in the world >2 cool dudes I made sidequests and main quests for decide to oppose the main party because...? >Actually, literally nothing is achieved during the final conflict and battle, but everything turns out good for reasons that were completely independent from both the villains and the heroes. If both factions decided to just play videogames that day, the results would have been the same. >Plot point about survivors of the old world existing, who evolved to have magical powers and a deep hatred for the humanity that left them behind goes nowhere. Related to that, that girl who got lobotomized into becoming an infant never did anything for the plot, except escape with Leanne's crystal, which as said beforehand, didnt really matter at all in the end.
I fully regret the 100+ hours I put into this game, somehow thinking it was going to end up somewhere satisfactory.
Thanks? It doesnt really change anything because the game failed to give me this information, and I dont think it should have been my responsibility to parse and organize all that information given the clues that only existed at the beginning and end of each quest. And it really doesnt change how poorly what WAS there was handled.
Cardinal Pater who was known and loved all over the world, spontaneously dies, in the presence of 3 mercenaries, one of them who has a crush on him, the other one his motherfricking best friend. Apparently there was no reaction whatsoever from these people, they just saw one of the important people to the world and to them die out of nowhere, they just decided to get up and leave and promptly forgot about it, the world also completely ignores the event, other than the fact that he died. Where, how and with whom he died was somehow completely irrelevant, and this tragedy was never investigated.
Witcher 3 was the last game where I felt "Frick I have to go back to real life now"
I just really need the next immersive world to play in, which is crazy because video game graphics and world environments are the best they've ever been (not talking about most AAA), and yet story and character development is the worst it's ever been, also art direction is nonexistent these days so everything looks like stock assets, beautiful stock but still generic assets regardless.
oh yeah absolutely these 2, and although Galleria's finale wasn't as great as Refrain's (in my opinion), I enjoyed both greatly and I'm glad I got to play and finish both of them, fricking masterpiece games
>Finish Refrain main story >Fricking ludo kino >Playing the extra dungeon >Painful slog all the way please just let it end
What the FRICK were they thinking?
>RDR2
There was an earthquake here during the cut scene where Arthur died. I just kept watching.
"I've tried, Dutch. I've really tried."
Beautiful game but I can't replay it as I can only feel these feels once. >Me trilogy
Definitely pleb opinion, though ME2 ending was hype.
I would extend that to everything that happens after arriving in new pork city, it's there where all the themes come together. The tower is a phenomenal final level, the more you ascend the more geographically surreal it gets. The animal room, the clone room, the construction site, the toilet slapstick shenanigans, the nostalgic polyanna boat ride, whole thing is so memorable.
I haven't even met a normalgay who was satisfied wit the GTA 5 story mode

>Destiny 2 (sort of)
im mad about how poorly D2 handles the season passes and storylines now,
Me and some mates finished forsaken and had a fricking hype time with it, then one of them had another kid, and another had a business partner die, so the rest of us stopped playing for like 3 years, went to go back to it at the end of the Aus covid lockdowns, and found out half the content from those 3 years is gone for good, and to get the new stuff would cost nearly $300 aud, and still have less playable content than forsaken had, since a lot of the stuff we enjoyed replaying in the original and forsaken have since been removed.
we never went back to it, and having missed the chance to get game nights started again, have made other plans in that time we used to set aside, real bummer since none of us really have the time to get into live service games, and its hard to find many other games you can play with 3-6 players outside MMOs or team shooters, and the time you need to set aside to even get into the big group sections of those games is beyond what we can actually promise.
i miss hanging around in basements taking turns at golden eye during uni...
yeah destiny is right fricked now, came out when I was 12 years old in 2017 and id play with my mate and we loved that shit and I still fondly remember being the campaign with him and the raid. when forsaken came out it completely took over my life and I only lost my enthusiasm around the time of beyond light. now I still play but only the PvP really and nowhere near as much.

You can cry about it all you want. It's a fact, at least SA2 was bad enough for be good. The series as a whole is garbage with almost none of the games rising to mediocre.

Subnautica. I just beat it for the first time yesterday after playing non-stop for 4 days and I had no idea what to do with my time afterwards
Literally me. Bought it on sale on Steam a few months ago. First time I couldn't put a game down in over a decade.
Worst part is there really isn't anything else like it, even the sequel is a bit of a pain in the ass by comparison (still playable though).

No, because of the entire length of the game being filled with various flashbacks, Ellie thinking about Joel, and the journey of her going after Abby.
