Outer Wilds

Yup, the only thing I could immediately think to answer as well.

I’ve tried to replay it with some mods, and outside of the VR mods adding a layer of beauty that flat screen just can’t do, nothing has made the game really replayable for me and it makes me sad.

But it also makes me happy, its rare a game feels like its a one time experience like that and sticks with you in such a profound way. I can’t wait for whatever game those devs make next

Yeah, I’ve played randomizers of it, and it’s kind of just a game that you play the once. But I remember so much about that playthrough and the process of discovery.

What a beautiful piece of art. And the music!

Yeah, I second this. The base game was such a great experience. I got the dlc some time ago and tried to play, but somehow it did not click. Still sitting there and waiting to be played.

One motivator for the DLC is that it does alter the ending a bit. Its definitely harder and scarier than the rest of the base game, that last puzzle was very tight on timing, but it felt worth it to succeed just to know I did, and the lore bits were nice.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Sill amazing to watch now but nothing has had the same feeling as that first watch.

in that vein, red dead redemption 2.

Bioshock 1 for sure

Saw 1.

Or Portal 2.

World of Warcraft. Played from just before BC until Cata, before raiding and grinding dailies sucked the fun out it (for me, ymmv). Just flying around, exploring the map and the lore, I wish I could just delete all of it from my brain and do the whole thing again.

I hate dailies so much! Makes a game feel like a job and if you ignore them you feel like you’re not doing enough

First kiss. The excitement, the nervousness, slight hesitation, and then suddenly a kiss, and it was so good.

23 years later I still remember everything that happened that day.

I also choose this guy’s first kiss.

Oh wow! My first kiss was awful lmao

But I’d agree to this if it was my first kiss with my current partner. Gosh I was flying high for a week.

Almost exactly like my romantic experience.
Nr 4 in a literal line of other snotnose kids kissing the same 10-11? year old girl who ‘knew how to do it’.

First time I played EVE Online. I’m not sure anything else will feel like that first time I undocked and discovered how big that universe really was.

Linux

The Amiga computer in 1985.

Unreal, the old Epic Games game around 1999

The first time sucks for everything that isnt media or drugs

Eh, first blowjob was pretty mind blowing.
