Psychonauts
Psychonauts
would have played this years ago if i didn't think it was ugly as shit
Bully
Bully
no doubt in this being great
Mass Effect
Mass Effect
always thought this series looked pretty lame. i've played like 5 minutes of it before but i really don't want to give the space to phantom hourglass (which, for the record, i'm not very interested in either)
Dead Space
Dead Space
out of all the re4 knockoffs out there, this one just looks better than re4 tbh. i'll play it soon
Assassin's Creed II
Assassin's Creed II
i played brotherhood. that's enough for me
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Super Mario Galaxy 2
i've heard this is better than the first, but idk how seriously to take that considering mario galaxy is one of the least remarkable 3d platformers i've ever played and i don't trust its fans
Terraria
Terraria
reminds me of the nerd emoji. i don't care and the community is annoying

i know literally everything about this game's plot but idk it sounds alright. maybe in another 5 years
Five Nights at Freddy's
Five Nights at Freddy's
i was actually REALLY excited for this when it was in steam greenlight, but i didn't have a pc at the time so i couldn't play it when it released. then i just kinda stopped caring. idk though despite how memetic it's become it's prolly pretty neat. i like night trap so sure why not
Undertale
Undertale
i feel like i'm obligated as a person who uses the internet and plays video games to eventually get through this. i'm not sure how much i actually care but i'll do it regardless
Stardew Valley
Stardew Valley
no fucking way. absolutely abhor the way this looks. i'll stick to harvest moon (story of seasons) and animal crossing if i'm to go down that route

Good list, if you don't care just forget it, to play something you have to be predisposed to it

I see that you have been revisiting your childhood, for this list and the other
can confirm galaxy 2 and luigis mansion are both epic, psychonauts is really good too but yeah a couple of those character designs are pretty ugly ill admit even if i do like most of them besides those few

@josh15 i do that pretty often in general, but this one was more of a coincidence just cause some other friends were doing it

@nowitsreyntime17 sorry bucko but i see that mario galaxy 10 rating - you are the ENEMY
😢
Dont worry, my 10 rating for Gestalt balances it out 😎
