gone home's a lifetime movie on a plot-level but elevated so so much by the sense of place and being able piece it together yourself. i love it, but at least some of that initial excitement was for the games it would inspire.

Yeah, I think that sums it up pretty well. The plot is nothing special but the game executes it so well by the way it tells the story through a bunch of found objects left in a house. Really unique, especially for its time.

That's a good point about Brothers, haha. The overall tone of the game has kind of a "stop and smell the roses" feel to it but you really are supposed to be hurrying.

I have to admit, there's a lot of cool narrative-driven games released this decade that I just didn't get around to. Your top 10 games of 2019 list made me realize, ah fuck, there's so many really intriguing games that I just haven't played yet, my list feels super normie by comparison, haha.
