Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

[–] dukemirage@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Half-Life 2, Max Payne 2 and Mass Effect because I‘ve been an impressionable teenager and a nitpicking adult.

[–] QuantumStorm@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Of all time is a hard one. I guess I'll go by most play hours. So in no particular order, WoW, Stellaris, and Warframe.

[–] Phelpssan@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago
  1. Persona 4
  2. Ar Tonelico 2
  3. Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Honerable mention to Warcraft 3 TFT.

[–] Gainsburnie@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Dune 2, WoW, Stardew Valley

[–] wraithcoop@programming.dev 2 points 4 months ago

It's hard as there's a lot of different games that I like for different reasons, but if I had to narrow it down it'd probably be:

  • Minecraft
  • Mirror's Edge
  • Dragon's Dogma
[–] I_Am_Jacks_____@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

The Last of Us, Mass Effect 2, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Final Fantasy VII Kingdom Hearts II (or BBS depending on the day of the week) Persona 4 Golden

To be honest these three could be different any day of the week. I play more than just RPGs but because these are heavily story driven they stick in the front of my mind more when it comes to these questions.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 months ago

Going by time played it's probably something like:

  • WoW
  • Rocket league

My top 3 are based on "for their time".

Morrowind

Portal

Halo 2

[–] al_Kaholic@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 4 months ago

Beat Off The Wiener was a game I enjoyed as a youth as well.

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Smb3.

HL2.

Team Fortress Classic.

Falcon 4.0 gets my respect for forcing me into advanced computer tinkering and sending me into my career eventually.

[–] Lazhward@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Call me Nostradamus 'cause it's Silksong.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

So Silksong is going to be a trilogy? Rock on!

Duskers, Homeworld & Earth-2150

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Your title says "What are in you are top 3 favourite games of all time".

You were thinking of "your", which is possessive. "You're" is a contraction of "you" and "are"; the apostrophe is a hint there.
