Generation Zero, having zero clue about it except one streamer i watched at the time played it for a video itself and i was interested, bought it on sale and it was easily one of my favorite playthroughs in the modern era of gaming. Maybe not the enemy variety as it's thin being all robots but the audio, the soundtrack, the graphics all REALLY were amazing. Even a buddy of mine who always says "if its nice outside i wont be inside gaming" played it alongside me in coop for weeks! Also, Bioshock, i played it when i came out on the 360 and man , ill never forget that intro of the plane crashing, swimming through an abyss as it was on fire and sinking around you as you arrive onto the lighthouse. Truly, one of my iconic memories for gaming to this day!

[@tomekvilmovskiy6547]

found Generation Zero this winter, played about 100 hours, then it started to pall. worth playing for a gameplay process, but don't expect much in case of story and variety of missions.

[@ItsMuffinTimePls]

​@@tomekvilmovskiy6547 As someone who got the game years ago, it's definitely one to revisit over time. The devs are continually adding more content and features; imaging my surprise when I came back to the game and was greeted with FNIX enemies (lol). Honestly it's kind of a treat and nothing I've played before really utilizes ambient noise to alert you of distant (and not so distant) threats is such an effective way! Hunters are absolutely terrifying haha

[@bronzin1445]

@@Spillow-CNot really…they have similar themes yes but how they’re executed couldn’t be any more different from each other. 4A Games is largely comprised of former STALKER developers who wanted to take the concept of STALKER and take to a whole new direction; being more linear and narrative focus and the Metro novels just happen to be that answer. Stalker focuses more on the survival while Metro focuses more on Narrative and player immersion, so much that I’m shocked it took them this long to finally make a VR game

[@tylercraig5633]

Bloodborne immediately comes to mind. So dark, gothic and lovecraftian

[@imALazyPanda]

Bloodborne gets so much praise, well deserved, but it truly is one of the best lovecraftian games around. Its a beautiful world and if anyone remembers the original marketing, they did not sell any of the lovecraftian themes. It was pretty hard marketed as the Gothic or Victorian monster fighting, beasts and the like. So an initial unspoiled playthrough really did feel like a proper lovecraftian adventure, uncovering the truth behind the world and it being far beyond what was initially thought.

[@Norightnowrong1]

@@Spillow-C that’s cause you didn’t pay attention to the game. Gaia designed the robots to rebuild the world, each having their own functions. Haephestus corrupted that idea, it was the one who built the predator machines. Gaia did have dinosaur machines in mind, but they were never thought to be predators. Each was designed to serve a proper function in the terraforming process, and you can see that throughout the game if you stop and observe them Things got pretty out of hand when humans were denied the knowledge from the previous era by Ted Faro too

One of the main reasons why I play any Final Fantasy game is for the game’s world. The developers always come up with the coolest things.

[@kryw10]

Final Fantasy worlds have always been ambitious, even the 8 but games. Fantastic stuff.

[@thebeerzerkerr]

Morrowind. It gets overlooked these days, but that world, the environment, the fleshed out and detailed cultures... It's so interesting when you dive into it. It's done so well and integrates fantasy concepts so seamlessly that all of the unfamiliar and alien elements feel natural and normal when you are playing. That, to me, epitomizes emersion. Everything in that game makes you say "Whoah! What is that?!" but later just feels so logical and right in that world. Crab-shell houses? Giant jellyfish cows? Legal political assassinations? Wizards in mushroom towers who applaud stealing from them? The whole world being the dream of a godhead and a villain who thinks he is the dreamer? A godlike being who is the result of being eaten and crapped out by a different one? Worship of the demon-like daedra and the moral quandary of it all? Giant bug taxis? EPIC stuff! Elder Scrolls has been becoming more generic fantasy after Morrowind.

[@makasete30]

Yes to both of those games. Still haven’t found a world bursting with ideas and so interactive as BOTW and TOTK with the physics system. The air kingdom may be short but I still had about 20 hours exploring it and figuring out to get from one air island to other, or skydiving down inside Islands, swimming up streams to the water temple from a cavern, then hopping from bubble to bubble. The depths may outlive their welcome but I still had another 20-30 hours of frantic fun, carefully edging forward, as mapping the unknown, solving the fire temple, raiding the yiga, discovering treasures, and it has probably the best side quest in the game finding Master Kohga . HFW may not be as interactive (you can’t go anywhere) but it’s a gorgeous world with so much variability and sometimes I boot it up just to swim. And it’s a joy to explore- there’s so much attention to detail.

[@chrisrudolf9839]

Since you included 2 games here for being uniquely good at emulating a real world setting (Red Dead Redemption and Sleeping Dogs), Kingdom Come Deliverance deserves a honorable mention for their astonishingly detailed and realistic recreation of parts of medieval Bohemia. Not only the places (which are recreated in a very authentic way), but also medieval etiquette and society and the combat just feel real in that game. The game certainly isn't perfect, since the small Czech developer studio didn't have an AAA budget and it shows in some places, but what they did manage to create with their budget is just amazing.

Bioshock will always stand out in my memory because of a friend of mine. She had it on X360, and was still using a standard definition TV. Finally, a year later, she got an HDTV and she started up a new game of BIoshock and said, "The walls have textures!" I said, "Yes, [her name], they do. We weren't telling you to get an HDTV because it was the latest shiny thing, we were telling you to do it because you were missing out." Needless to say, she was blown away by the graphical differences between SD and HD as she played the game for the umpteenth time, but truly seeing it the way it was meant to be seen for the first time. I'd like to see Bloodborne brought to PC along with The Order: 1886.

[@marknunya3107]

@@LuriTV you didn’t play it, did you? It’s not the setting or the look; it’s the FEEL. You become immersed in TW3 and every little side quest is better than many main quests in most games. You feel like you’re having an impact on peoples lives and making the world a better place… unless you role play as a bad guy.

[@mukulghanekar7430]

Because it is based on a book. I think they were talking about only video game worlds .

[@nicoleburns9652]

Xenoblade 1comes to mind for me.The world is two giant bodies of dead gods in a endless ocean.I remember being overtaken by wonder.

[@Fistexable]

Can't agree more, it's such an unique concept which really changes the concept of location when every location is a body part.

[@Venus_Raven]

Yharnam better be on here

[@carmycuhl]

The original ni no kuni’s world had me engulfed further than many games had in a very long time. I recommend everyone explore it, really like no other.

[@ms.blackfire2927]

I click on this because thumbnail is from generation zero

[@kalilak9701]

Obligatory shout out to Myst for having such fascinating lore to justify its book-based world-hopping and then executing it SO WELL for the tech they were working with.

A list of 10 game worlds like no other and you don't mention Horizon? A tribal, post-apocalyptic world where you fight robot dinosaurs? Also, the Remedy connected universe. Sam Lake and Remedy are the masters of weird, meta story-telling. Basically, Sam Lake is Finnish Kojima.

[@667GameFreak]

The first Xenoblade game's setting is fascinating to me. Roaming those two enormous titans' bodies and often having visual indicators of where you are is so creative, especially for initially being on the Wii.

[@doctorx2307]

I’m shocked that cyberpunk wasn’t on here

[@anemonana428]

Cyberpunk, shadowrun, Deus ex, The ascent. Night city is beautiful, but not unique.

[@doctorx2307]

@@anemonana428 night city is very very unique you gotta pay more detail to the city to see that

[@BaoZakeruga]

The world of any Xenoblade game, Baten Kaitos, and the Pikmin series are the most unique I've come across in gaming.

[@Kazuma11290]

Title says " worlds like no other" then you feature places like America... and... Hong Kong, when there's games like Horizon that take place in the most beautiful post-apocalypse ever overrun by eco-friendly robot dinosaurs. Or Brutal Legend which looks like an 80's metal album everywhere you go. Okami: like living in a caligraphy drawing, Doom: Sci-fi Hell, Ratchet & Clank: an entire universe of weirdos, Crash Bandicoot: tropical chaos, South Park: city of cutouts. Kirby: a star shaped planet. And that's not even mentioning anything indie.

[@sarthaksaini8440]

Dying Light deserves a place on this list. The apocalypse environment, the fear of Night. the music, the vibe all hit the spot.

[@Ishin69]

how is rdr2 showing its age?

[@TheInvertabarian]

Sleeping dogs was incredible, I do t understand why there's not been a good follow up

[@takco2596]

Can you please ffs put the game's title for the chapters on youtube, instead of "Number __"

[@kye231g6]

he literally says the title of the game straight away, why complain about something so insignificant? just listen and watch

[@johananj.j8003]

Then what is the point of making a video?

[@ZodiacBoi42]

If he did that no one would have a reason to watch it

[@troydorr4867]

Half Life: Alyx is one of my absolute favorite VR games. It's just STUNNINGLY beautiful. Even though it takes a decent gaming PC to run it, it's absolutely worth it. And the VR mod for Half Life 2 is amazing as well.

[@bdifferentb]

Bioshock is one of the best games I ever played. I always remember the first time I hit that section and saw the crazy water graphics. It blew me away. Awesome story and great atmosphere.

[@dipit221b]

I have said it before, will say again, Sleeping dogs is criminally underrated, ya the driving kinda sucks, but the hong kong environment, the combat, the story, everything is so good, it should have been a series.

[@chasespringer5823]

Generation Zero was criminally underrated. It's not even in full 1.0 release yet. And it's SO FUN already

[@StacksofCats]

Good list, though I'm surprised Gravity Rush didn't make it on. Still one of the most unique worlds I've ever seen.

[@KYnet1K]

Horizon, og Thief (plus custom levels), The Neverhood, Oddworld, Inside, Control, Days Gone (zombie stuff is dime a dozen but this game nailed it imo), Portal, Hitman... just off the top of my head.

[@tomatha132]

Harold Halibut is a game world like no other, not just because of its visual style but also because all the characters have adapted to their new lives living stranded in an alien ocean and the sort of retro futuristic technology is great too.

[@zJoriz]

I feel like the most memorable game worlds tend to be point-and-click stuff. Long before there was Bioshock, there was Starship Titanic. Spiritfarer, and Dorfromantik feel fresh. Gorogoa, Detention and Gris hit a darker note. And Donut County and Untitled Goose Game are something else entirely.

[@VioletElite4]

There's something really unique about going back and playing Stalker Shadow of Chernobyl. Stalker 2 is about to come out so I wanted to go back to the previous games. The OG Stalker game with the DLC is a bit janky, but very atmostpheric with you being stuck in a giant exclusion zone after Chernobyl.

[@wasnice98]

Red dead 2 and dishonored are hands down my top two favorite games. World building and attention to small details leave such an impression.

[@dabieljones7873]

Oddworld came to mind for me. Strange, grim and funny at the same time. Always hoping for them to make more games set in that universe

[@anthonychilds8193]

Generation Zero made me think they may have been inspired by the artwork / worlds of Simon Stålenhag. Tales From The Loop book/artwork originally published in 2014 was/is about an alternate Sweden of the 80s that's dystopian, the tech is old/retro/futuristic. But the game, from the scenes you showed has a first person shooter aggression that is not in the artwork / TV series or role playing games based on Stålenhag's art books. The game didn't look great (destroying robots with what looks like a conventional pistol, meh) but I'd 100% play a game in that type of setting.

[@yodoleheehoo90]

This list should have been so much longer, because I thought of 10 more games that to me are definitely worth the hours spent just taking in the beauty and intricate designs of the worlds! Of course, Bloodborne was on my list as well XD

[@samuraicupcake289]

There are honestly so many fascinating worlds to explore in video games that just choosing 10 is impossible 😂

[@IvanRubin]

I remember an old Super Nintendo game. Out of this world ! That world still fascinates me to this day
