In no real particular order, games with highest impact on me:
- battlefield 1942 - desert combat mod
Ground breaking at the time. Physics and gamespeed have never been captured by any other game. Consumed my free time for a long time.
2 counter strike
Simple concept, extreme depth. I've clocked several thousand hours into this franchise.
- The witcher 3
In terms of world building and story telling... Incredible.
- The Witness
Absolute masterclass in game design, world design. Puzzle design.. This is an incredible puzzle game that will shift your perspective.
- Faster than light
I haven't found anything else quite scratch that replay ability, that tethering on the brink of losing, itch. It's a unique game.
- Guild wars 2
Completely changed the way mmorpgs were played, and was a great mmo.
- Monkey Island
I wanted to mention a point and click, several spring to mind, but this still series lives in my mind the most. Although space quest is another that impacted my young brain.
- Minecraft
Like... I was there since its debut. Still watching and enjoying mc related content.
- Elite
Space is pretty big and cool
- Eve online
Getting back stabbed by the person you've been back stabbing for, so you join the enemies of your friends to be able to backstab your backstabbers.
- Heroes of Newerth
- Outerwilds
- Quake 2
- Star Control 2
- Dark Souls
- Another World
- Street Fighter 2
- Flashback
- HalfLife

It's mostly a heartfelt list... although arguably most of those are quality games too, regardless of emotional connection
- Streets Of Rage 2 (Megadrive)
- Flashback (Megadrive)
- The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons (GBC)
- Unreal Tournament 2004 (PC)

Separated into top 5 and the rest.
- Slay the Spire
- BeamNg
- Trackmania (not any of the games specifically more the concept)
- Disco Elysium
- Portal 2
- Balatro probably
- FTL
- Mario Kart (8 and/or Wii)
- Maybe Baldus gate 3
- Thalos principle 2
The hearthstone battlegrounds auto battler mode is perhaps also in here but hearthstone itself I've never played.
