NoX, Everyone should play NoX at-least once.
It teaches you that a game doesn't have to be popular to be good. It was completely glossed over because Diablo 2 or Diablo Came out at the same time, But it was a great game and looks decent even today. It was really ahead of its time.
Also it really shoes how different classes in a game should have different stories, and paths through areas.

i think even people that don't like vidya can apreciate conkers bad furday to some extent.
Albeit just a silly experience with a rather unexpected ending that's relatable.
People will apreciate it for not being the current trend of cookiecutter games on a variety of levels and seeing how much passion can go into what's often considered as just mindless entertainment.

tl;dr
It shows games being just a silly game, but with heart put into it and characters you give a shit about and great splitscreen multiplayer. A game that ended an era for me on multiple levels.

The World Ends With You. It is a JRPG done right, and I think people should, ideally, play the pinnacles of each genre. Plus it's a game that utilizes its hardware perfectly, as well as does difficulty and post game incredibly well. And, imo, the story and characters are fantastic, though I'm sure its not for everyone; but, especially when I first played it, it really resonated with me

If you're looking for games that will give you a sense of how far games have progressed, then definitely these ones in this order. This is also based on just playing, not necessarily beating.

Space Invaders
The Bards Tale
The Legend of Zelda
Doom
Sonic the Hedgehog
Mortal Kombat II
Donkey Kong Country
Command and Conquer
Earthbound
Final Fantasy VII (Please note that this isn't due to it actually being a good game, but this game pops up too often in debates to NOT have at least some gameplay under your belt)
Pokemon Red
Ocarina of Time
Deus Ex
Half Life
Diablo II
Halo Combat Evolved

And that's it. Anything post-Halo will be met with too much skepticism to be considered a "must-play"
>>
>>283597830
Honestly, I'd strongly recommend trying to play it on some sort of DS. I don't think it will translate as well with an emulator, but if you can't find a copy/they're not cheap enough, Desmume will suffice, I'm sure

Nah.

In all seriousness, there's nothing significant enough about the game itself to warrant a "must play." That whole genre is a thing now, and each year the "cinematic experience" is only going to get better and better, and since the gameplay itself is negligible and its "cine experience" is only improved upon by its successors, there is no reason to ever "have" to play that.

Let's see, how about the phenomenal character performances, top notch voice work/sound design, great writing/story, fantastic multiplayer component. The game opens up a lot midway through and you're not really on rails via cutscene qte interaction like The Order, so I wouldn't call it a "cinematic experience" aside from the great mocap/cutscenes throughout the game.

>>283600525
Hi, me again.
I put hundreds of hours into morrowind and oblivion before playing skyrim, and i think that the dual wielding was a huge improvement. I can see how people get bored with the combat because at some points it feels like you can faceroll everything, but at that point you should probably set the difficulty higher so that you actually have to have a high level in a combat skill in order to do serious damage and actually feel like you are rewarded from it- I.E. when you disable/disarm or paralyze someone, or make that half mile long archery shot sneak attack that takes down a big foe in one shot.

As for the environment, Yeah. Ur rite. Yep. It sucks. It wasn't as weird and expansive as morrowind's landscapes were, or as bright and enjoyable as oblivion's. The dungeons were also not nearly as expansive as oblivion's were, you never got that feeling like you were descending into the center of the earth to find the ancient gear that was sealed away, never to be found again- it just felt like, "im in a cave....cool."

There was a remarkable increase to graphics over the previous elder scrolls games, but that was to be expected.

One thing i found annoying about skyrim was that the factions you were in and what race you were held no sway with the game and its other factions- The companions will let you join them even if you're a spell casting faggot high elf thats also an assasin for the dark brotherhood.

Overall though, i enjoy the feeling of being able to play a game where i can go into a bandit camp, transform into a werewolf, slaughter everone there, change back and throw all their shitty gear down a hole along with their bodies, go catch some butterflies, then return to the house i built and read a book. Thats the mark of a special game for me.

>>283601407
>fantastic multiplayer component
I disagree with this. Not calling it bad, but it is not a selling point nor something that can ever be attributed 40 years down the line when telling someone they "must play" it.

To the grit though,
>how about the phenomenal character performances, top notch voice work/sound design, great writing/story
>great mocap/cutscenes throughout the game
Calm down for a second, because I'm going to use the "M" word again. Ready? Alright. There are a ton of movies I can apply all those point to. Wait, calm your tits! Let me get to my point.

There's a ton of movies that can be described as that that I would NEVER say "must watch" to. Because people have different tastes in what they want in a movie, and it might not always click with them. Is it a masterwork? Sure. Must everyone experience it? No.

And I'm going to bring this back home to my original post in >>283600328. CineGames are becoming a thing now after the great success of TLOU. They are starting to be developed in large amounts. That's a good thing, for its own category. But TLOU doesn't stand out to me as "everyone must play this one in their life" because eventually, in someone's life, there will be ones that better suit them.

The only time I'd single out that game as a must watch is a sort of steamboat willy, "was among the first that started it all" things.

Because it was the primary rival to DmC during one of /v/s rage circle jerks and was raised to be their champion. Any consensus /v/ has about it is clouded by extreme bias. It's solid game, but it's easily Platinum's worst effort.

If you want a more direct rebuttal to reply to, how about this:

Tell someone who doesn't own a playstation why should come back and play this game 40 years from now. Not "now", "soon", or "in a couple of years." 40 years. What makes this game so ridiculously alluring that you are going to force your grand kids to sit down and play that game.

My own choice was >>283599956. DM was sometimes tedious and dragging, but the gameplay was unique and fun as fuck as you run around kicking shit into other shit, and the combat itself still stands out as one of the three "simulators" that have the best melee combat to date being Kicking, Screaming, and Feasting Simulators respectively. I will gladly show my grandkids that game some day and unless they are little snots, I bet they will actually enjoy it too.

>The only time I'd single out that game as a must watch is a sort of steamboat willy, "was among the first that started it all" things.

My folks did the Pink Floyd and Beetles thing to me once. I dislike all of both of their songs with a small few exceptions of each - which I happen to really like, like Eleanor Rigby - and acknowledge that if those same bands tried to come out today, they'd remain unnoticed. I can kinda see our kids thinking the same with our choices in the future. "Wait, there's no VR-support with this game? What the hell, dad? Might as well bring me an 8bit game while you're at it."

Cave Story is pretty much perfect in what it's trying to be: A fun simple, charismatic game with great music and smooth gameplay. You can't compare it to a Castlevania game which tries to be serious and atmospheric. It's like comparing Earthbound to a Final Fantasy. Completely different experiences.

Everyone who's as angry about videogames as /v/ usually is should play a bit of every major genre so as to not be and uneducated idiot. You know, there really isn't a must play, but you should really try to go around the block.

I'll leave my two cents and say that everyone should have pumped a few quarters into a few CAVE shmups, R-Type, Gradius and Battle Garega to form an opinion about STGs. Also Metal Slug and Contra for side scrolling walking shoot em ups.

This is actually a great game. Radiant silver gun is good and all, but Ikaruga is better, I feel like. Also, that dude that got through the game by playing with two ships simutaneously is cool.
>>
>>283609547
They offer different things; personally, I prefer Silvergun because of how complex and deep the weapons system is. They're both equally fantastic technical shmups, though.

Choose one.

>>283609968
Ikaruga is more of a puzzle game disguised as a shmup, I feel like. I like them both, too, but my heart belongs to dodonpachi dai ou jou. That is, imo, the pinnacle of shmup design.
