(Saw this question asked on another popular link aggregation website and it got me thinking)
If you could play one game for the first time all over again, what would you choose? This might be because you want to do it all again, or because you don't think you got enough out of it the first time. It could be experiencing the game exactly as you were back then, or experiencing a game with what you know now.
For me, it's Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past, experienced exactly as I was back in 1991.
Nothing comes close to how jaw-droppingly amazed I was by that opening sequence. The epic orchestral score, the cinematic rainstorm, creeping around in the dark... it was a generational leap above anything I'd played on 8-bit computers and consoles, and even the Megadrive. I'd love to play it again without thirty plus years of Nintendo/Zelda knowledge, or without knowing about the dark world.

The Outer Wilds.
A game you can only play once and that one time is magical.
I came in to type just this. One of the best games ever made!
Played about 2 hours of it and uninstalled. It was incredibly boring. Why do you think it was magical?
Spoilers. ❤️
But seriously, maybe it just didn't work for you and that's okay. Nothing is everything to everyone.
It's definitely a slow start. The way it's designed to allow discovery but not lead you too much makes the moments where points of data click and connect really powerful.
It's hard to talk too much about it without potentially spoiling the enjoyment one might take from it.
But it's not for everyone. But if it is for you, it's really really something.
It took me about two or three hours to learn to navigate and find my first "magical thing". When I did I was hooked. But yeah it can be slow to start.
Same story for me. I've heard it's incredible so I guess I'll have to try again sometime though. The start was just incredibly dull
I was going to say outer wilds too, what an amazing experience.
