hire me randy and then treat me like shit

This game doesn't have an insanely detailed open world, it doesn't have complex or satisfying gameplay mechanics, it has one of those stories that you'll only understand after watching youtube videos about it, but it's still incredibly memorable. Shadow of the Colossus uses the few things it actually has so effectively, that it still managed to surprise and mesmerize me for most of its runtime. If you're fine with rather abstract games, and still haven't played it up until now, go for it.

Hollow Knight doesn't necessarily reinvent the wheel in any of it's major aspects like gameplay, level design and story, but it still manages to retain such an exceptionally high level of quality across all of them, that i'd still recommend it to anyone who is comfortable enough with challenging videogames.

I know that for most people this game is more of a meme than anything else, because it's community is full of children, or because every game is riddled with bugs and extremely clunky to play, and all of that is true! This game is pretty stupid, but it's stupid in a good way. Literally everytime I have ever played this game I had a good time, and all of that for the low low price of exactly nothing. i can't really give it less than a 10/10 for that.

Gameplay which improves and expands upon its predecessor. A story which keeps the same major theme of the first game, that of people being led by their strongest emotions in a world where they have nothing else left, but shifting the focus from love to hate, aswell as elegantly tying the loose ends from the first game together. Although it has quite apparent flaws, they weren't bad enough to bring down the experience as a whole for me.

Dark Souls is the most unique game i've ever played, because it can be a masterpiece just as well as it can be exruciatingly awful. This is why i'd recommend this game to anyone, because it is an experience unlike anything else.
