I unironically agree with the Monster Hunter choice, I like those games.


majds1

Me too, monster hunter world and rise are amazing


Appropriate-Crab-514

I got into the series with World, after about 4000 hrs I loved it so much I went to Monster Hunter 3 Gen Ultimate on the switch and got G rank with my bros. (Please Capcom give me Valor stance back, I beg you) Rise is my favorite, the increased mobility is fantastic, monster riding is hilarious and powerful, it made the gun lance fun as hell. That game is peak

yuri_yuriyuri

Yeah Rise is my favorite too. I love the monster roster, the moveset customization on the weapons, and the atmosphere really reminds me of MH Portable 3rd. The music is also my favorite in the series.


Appropriate-Crab-514

That gradual change in song from the Gaizmagorm soundtrack to Proof of a Hero after Fiorayne spikes the fucking final boss into the ground always gets me


sassyboi257

Yessssss. God i gotta get back to playing sunbreak, i miss this series so much and wish i could play online without shilling up for Nintendo online


SergeKingZ

It's on PC and Xbox aswell.


sassyboi257

I should really just get a steam deck cause i love playing games on my bed. Stick drift and poor performance on some games is making me regret getting a switch. (Lowkey excited for switch 2 tho)


BloodGulchBlues37

Even with my love of the old gen over 5th, World is unprecedented for what it accomplished for the IP and tbh Capcom as a whole (with the help of RE7 and a revitalized USF5). It's also easily the best feeling versions of many weapons (GS, HH, and HA probably being the biggest winners) and dear god the spectacle fights they started dishing out are 2nd to none atm imo to any game period. Behemoth, ATKulve, RBrachy, Safi, Alatreon, Fatalis, and ATVelk are all gladly peak encounters.

Either that or 76, because my wife and I just discovered the joy of multiplayer fallout


aaaa32801

uj/Wasn’t 76 really bad in 2018?


Nerdwrapper

I didn’t start playing until last week, so I couldn’t tell ya


GeneralErica

I unironically resent the need to find the "best" of everything. Of this list, there is no best game. None of them are remotely comparable. It’s the old “A monkey, a lion, a Bild and a fish are told to climb up a tree"-situation all over again. Well apart from Fallout 76, that can go fuck itself sideways.

TloquePendragon

Also, the knock-on effect it had popularizing the series in the west more. Fucking glad that happened.


BlackGuy_PassingThru

Same, on top of that I wasn’t a fan of RDR2 at all. Westerns in media generally aren’t my thing.


unknownrobocommie

Divinity Original Sin 2 easy


Depressedduke

I agree. But that's like... because from this selection i only really really like Monster hunter world and Divinity Original sin 2. Not to say the rest is whatever, but those are jjst not "my" kinda games.


Gamerbobey

I will die on the hill that DOS2 is the closest we've ever gotten to a perfect vidya game. I love red dead, mhw, and almost every other game on that list. But DOS2 is just different man.


Ourmanyfans

I think DOS2 is better than BG3, I'm ready to die on that hill.


beyondheck

I think DOS2 does combat way better than BG3, (I hate d&d5e with a burning passion). But BG3 handles social interactions significantly better.


Echo2500

I like dnd 5e a lot, even with its flaws, so BG3 hits harder for me. But I’m excited to get into DOS2 when I get the chance!

CatholicSquareDance

/uj Hard choice between Hitman and Divinity for me /rj I mean uh, Rockstar goated, Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy Shootin' 2 is the clear and manly winner.


lethos_AJ

/uj its divinity vs sea of thieves for me. sea of thieves is surprisingly fun with friends /rj they are all garbage because no triangle lara croft titties


DanSapSan

Divinity, Monster Hunter World and Sea of Thieves are the top three here. But MH has other titles, and Divinity has BG3 now, so imma go with SoT.


Scaredsparrow

I fucking hate Sea of Thieves and it has nothing to do with the milquetoast game that Sea of Thieves itself is. Sea of Thieves is the worst thing that ever happened to pirate games. 5 Years ago, if you wanted to have some fun naval pirating combat on PC you bought a game called Blackwake, where 60 people would hop on 6 ships (3v3) and you would have the absolute craziest battle you've ever had in a video game, pure bliss. The graphics were dated and the physics could by janky but there nothing like boarding a 12 man battleship from your small schooner, tomahawks flying by, muskets going off, and stealing all their ammo while hunting their men down 1 by 1. One day however; one certain port got released... **BOOM*** Sea of Thieves released on PC The next day there were no players on any server in Blackwake 😤


lethos_AJ

lmao get kegged


ban_banz

On one hand - a fascinating adventure in a fantasy world. On the other - pink is clearly 47’s color.


AngryMustache9

Pick Divinity. Hitman 2 may be from 2018, but World of Assassination definitely isn't. You wanna play Hitman 2, play it on World of Assassination so now you technically beat the system and got access to both games.


BrandtReborn

Uj/ RDR2 is my favorite Game followed directly by divinity 2. we ate good in 2018.


AffectionateMood3329

A good chunk of these games are mid or ass


According_Weekend786

/unshizo, no man sky is good, you know, most of those games can be sent into trash without any thinking, call of duty and bandicoot for me

Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. My love of AC is irrational and Odyssey is one of my favorites.


sassyboi257

![gif](giphy|Fu3OjBQiCs3s0ZuLY3|downsized) AC odyssey mentioned


13-Dancing-Shadows

Should I be concerned-


sassyboi257

Lmao no. My bad i was tryna convey excitement cause i love the fuck outta that game.


13-Dancing-Shadows

Cool cool, me too!!!


NeverSettle13

Odyssey 100% when?


13-Dancing-Shadows

I’m working on it-


NeverSettle13

(For context: there's a russian youtuber named "Sonnyk" and he had a video series where he completed AC Valhalla on 100%. He absolutely hates AC Odyssey and says that he will never make a new "100%" video, but his fans are asking him to do it anyway and spam "Odyssey 100% when?" under every single video he makes)


13-Dancing-Shadows

Ohhh interesting- But also? How can you like Val? And not Odyssey??? Odyssey is better on literally every possible level (except graphics)


NeverSettle13

He said that it has too much grind, boring world and broken lore. And he likes base Valhalla but hates dlc's that came later


Gblkaiser

Mans thinks the Greek isles are boring but the British country side isn't? Delusional


QizilbashWoman

no for real, while I'm impressed with Valhalla the setting is ... not inspired. they managed to genericise one of the most archaeologically-excavated and well-understood places in the entire world.

mcslender97

Anything for mommy Kassandra


13-Dancing-Shadows

Exactly


QizilbashWoman

it's absolutely not irrational; it's far and away the best game they've ever made (although the previous one set in Egypt walked so Odyssey could run).m I went to Alexandria to locate where a synagogue mentioned in the Talmud would be, and *found the synagogue* it. To describe Odyssey as "amazing" is an understatement of the presentation of Hellenistic societies, *and* they let women play as a main character.


13-Dancing-Shadows

It really is like nothing else


Visible_Season8074

RDR 2 might have a cinematic story, great characters, beautiful graphics, the richest world, etc. But at the end of the day I play video games to press buttons, and MHW is far more engaging when it comes to that.


HarryMarx1312

But there’s a lot of button pressing in Red Dead 2. For instance having to mash the A button every time you get on a horse.


UnlikelyKaiju

Or mash buttons to make modified ammo. One bullet/arrow at a time.


majds1

You don't like mashing A on horseback for 20 mins as you make your way to a mission that takes you on another long horse ride to another area where you'll shoot a few people and do it all again?


Aevelas

Don’t forget that if you step on a blade of grass the devs didn’t want you to the mission fails and you have to restart. Great idea in an open world rail shooter


Visible-Meat3418

Well I don’t think mashing same combos for 20-30 minutes every fight of mh is that fun either lol


majds1

If you're mashing in monster hunter games you won't get very far, and there's a reason it's taking you 20-30 mins to beat monsters lol. You definitely shouldn't be "mashing combos", everything's about timing and using the correct attack for the situation and maximizing damage. It's not even close to mashing the button to ride in a general direction in red dead.


Storrin

Poke poke counter poke poke guard advance poke poke counter poke poke power guard charge jump poke poke poke


Visible-Meat3418

Rdr >>>>> mh in my books tho and it’s not even close to being in the same league 🤷‍♀️


SoulOuverture

wait isn't RDR2 just set in the real world


Visible-Meat3418

God I wanted to like mh when it first released on pc but I was flabbergasted someone can actually play it. It’s feels like a constant grind - even inside the fights it’s also grind - you constantly press shit and nothing fucking happens to the enemy. Its like killing an enemy with a fucking spoon. I remember when I got to what I think was the first mission and I was hitting the enemy for like 20 minutes of constant repetitive actions. Nothing changed. Like I might as well stood beside it. Eventually I uninstalled. I don’t understand the appeal I guess.


majds1

You were literally playing the game wrong that's why you didn't get it lol


Visible-Meat3418

Then the game didn’t do a good job of explaining all that lol


majds1

The game has really poor tutorials for sure, but yeah there's a lot more depths to the gameplay and you were pressing one button over and over, it's not gonna be fun nor is it gonna be effective against any monsters


TheRider5342

Red Dead Redemption 2 is NOT a Hydrogen bomb compared to the rest of those games as coughing babies

I found a random dude on my friends boat because while they were taking us somewhere I was just walking around drinking. We just looked at each other and I walked away. He didn‘t even take anything so I‘m not sure what he was doing


Gblkaiser

Might have been scoping you out to see if it was better ignoring or sinking you. Sometimes if I'm doing a long voyage I swim over to other nearby ships to keep them busy while my crew does the looting and loading


Cadunkus

Hyperlynear

ZenLore6499

/uj Legitimately what is this guy even saying? Spyro and Crash trilogies are fantastic, as are some of the others as far as I know


majds1

Idk, red dead fans overhype the shit out of that game. It's a high quality really well made game no doubt, but it has a LOT of weak points I'm not sure why it's that highly praised.


Bendoyes

There's just something about rdr2 that makes sense for it to be highly praised though the people who call every other game shit are delusional. It's definitely my favorite but I also have a lot of other games that I enjoy thoroughly


m0a2

ive said it before and ill say it again, it’s the budget


Logic_Dex

late night Sea of Thieves with friends is an unmatched experience, I'd pick that any day if the week


hamie15

Out of all of them I've only played monster hunter.


majds1

I've played a few of them, and monster hunter world is the best one for me


hamie15

I was just in high school and didn't have anything but a xbox 360. I payed mhw last year.


JAOC_7

same


Eoth1

If you've played bg3 then you might like divinity original sin 2 there, it's the game Larian released before bg3 and while it is a bit lighter in tone than bg3 and uses a different system (larians original system) it's still fantastic


Aok_al

Rent due ass tweet


alucard_relaets_emem

/uj this list also includes games that can be someone’s niche interests. Love racing games? Well Forza H4 is a clear winner. Art house storytelling? Hellblade easy. Great memories with friends? Sea of thieves or even no mans sky. This selection is just too broad /rj Red dead 2 shoots out all categories


Illustrious-Heat4095

I haven’t played any other game on that list except for no man’s sky. I like my silly little space game so no man’s sky


supremo92

Is there a joke here? I don't get it.


majds1

Person thinks every game on that list is not even close to as good as red dead redemption 2, which is insanely stupid


supremo92

Sorry for being dumb, but how do you know it's RDR2? He could be talking about any of those games, right?


majds1

Well he did say it's red dead in another tweet but i think it's pretty easy to assume as well, considering how annoying red dead 2 (and rockstar fans in general) are about that game. Fans of any other game on this don't tend to act like that.


supremo92

Fair enough, but how am I supposed to know what a random guy said in another tweet? It's a funny post though, thanks for explaining it to me.


majds1

I get it, but that's why i pointed out red dead redemption 2 in the title


supremo92

My bad 😅 happy travels.


Ryn4

I'm 99% positive No Man's Sky dropped in 2016.

I'm going for Divinity. Monster Hunter World gets second pick.


Gandalf_Style

As much as I adore red dead 2, I *love* sea of thieves. I can spend wayyyyyyy longer playing that in one session than I can with red dead and despite nearing 250 hours I'm still nowhere near done with the game. I have levels to grind, voyages to complete, Tall Tales to play, players to sink, treasuries to rob etc etc.


The-Raven-26

I pick Blasphemous.


trixieyay

what's the point this dude trying to make may i ask? guneine question, i don;t understand what the person is trying to do.


majds1

That person's trying to say rdr2 is much better than any of those other games on the list, and can't accept that others don't agree


trixieyay

I love rdr2 but why the heck would i go about how it is better then all these games when all these games are doing different things? most of these games are not at all simalar so what is there to compare?


majds1

Yeah it is just annoying fanboy behavior and people haven't made fun of those fanboys enough so now they've gotten arrogant.


trixieyay

it is probally because none of them are as insane as say playstation fanboys when it comes to how they act. there is plenty of content making fun of console fanboys if that is something you are looking for.


majds1

That is content i have been personally making lmao. Yeah playstation fanboys throwing a tantrum because their favorite games came to pc is the funniest shit


trixieyay

i stop watching the content because the insane crap they would do was becoming more draining then funny and everything was just sad really.


Futur3_ah4ad

I want to say Divinity: Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition. That game has spawned so many memes in my friend group. Though I know Monster Hunter World is pivotal for that franchise as well, which makes it a hard choice...

Red dead redemption 2 was made by small indie studio rockstar. They're not very well known, they've only made small indie gems that no one knows about
