Since everyone's just saying their favorite game, I'll say The Finals!
It's fuckin great! It's the first FPS in years that gets me legit excited to play. I like that the game requires decent strategy, movement, and teamwork to get wins and not just good aim/luck. Everything about it feels fresh. Best of all it's freaking free. A free AAA game in 2024 that's more than decent and has an awesome dev team? Sign me up!
It's wild to me that it's not huge compared to games that go mainstream (not gonna mention names. lol), but I'll appreciate it while it's here.
Dark Souls remastered taught me how to look at life differently. I now accept failure as part of the process of growing, not something that should be avoided at all costs.
Also it taught me how to parry like a G.
Asteroids
The next soulslike from FromSoft that doesn’t molest you with the camera. They proved it’s possible with shadow of the Erdtree.
Jokes aside, Slay is absolutely incredible. How a developer managed to make a strategy game as replayable as this before 2000, I don’t know.
At 152GB: hitman 2
Really tho, tetris has been at the top for a while
Wait, you do by install size? What's the best game in the range 20-23GB, about what I have left on my SSD?
Runescape. It's been around for more than 20 years and still is one of the most active online games.
I'm tempted to say either The Witcher 3, Grand Theft Auto V, or Metal Gear Solid 5 (if you can look past the fact it's unfinished).
All three are exceptionally polished, have huge, highly detailed world's to explore, cinematic moments with blockbuster action scenes, smooth and balanced gameplay, are suitable for gaming noobs and veterans, and has moments to goof off and dick around.
It's hard not to be biased, though I'll state I don't personally like GTAV, I think it's perhaps too ordinary for my tastes and feels too restrictive in its mission structure.
