Control is one-of-a-kind of game imo. On the surface it looks like a regular 3rd person horror shooter, but the lore and game mechanism is definitely one of the best and unique out there

[@shfd3832]

I installed and tried control twice because of positive reviews but still can't get to 1 hour. So uninstalled twice

[@raid1010]

@@shfd3832 Well everyone has different taste and preferences so it's understandable. Cheers

[@nerdvananc]

Great video! Very well written and narrated, and perfect with the small snippets of gameplay at the end of each game's discussion. :)

[@fishtv3645]

I absolutely loved Evil West, such a gem, don't overlook it it's a ton of fun

[@steeleliving2995]

Nice list I;m a sucker for linear single player games Uncharted series is my all time favorite, God of War, and Last of Us are up there too. There are a couple in here I'll definitely check out, Thanks!

[@nickking9568]

Uncharted is a great series hopefully they make a new one at some point but will be weird without drake although I enjoyed lost legacy

[@TorQueMoD]

Great list! Still quite a few on there I haven't had time to play yet.

[@MLeleven11]

Nice list! I'm playing through Evil West right now and loving it. I'm going to check out Vampyr and Order 1886

[@harrykewell8666]

Order 1886 great game. Graphics are insane but there is not really gameplay mechanics, thats the reason there won’t be sequel. Story was good. Vampyr also worth to try. I liked it

[@clayk4753]

Vampyr was amazing. It took me by surprise

[@alucard624]

Vampyr is a straight up hidden gem and definitely worth playing.

[@nilsong1902]

That was one of the best lists

[@martini668]

Great list

[@editingahmad]

Funny thing, in the Max Payne 2 van cutscene, the police officers are actually shooting at a wall. This can be seen if you're forcing 16:9 and rendering stuff on screen you're not supposed to see.

[@prathisahrudh]

Linear games are cool as well!

[@andreareasvenas9037]

My favorite story in a game so far is cyberpunk, got so many emotions: joy, hype, surprise, depression

[@blublugamingchannel]

Yes i love them lineae stories to be honest, keeping them things classic and simple❤

[@fabiobezerra9569]

Great vídeo! ✌🏼🤓🎮

[@ianalexander8374]

Evil west is awesome 😎 , love a new dark watch game

[@ljminter1070]

Devil may cry 3 & 5 should be on this list

[@dathip]

Evil west is just UTTERLY amazing!!!

[@user-tq7jv7dp4g]

Evil is an awesome game but with lots of bugs. My gameplay wasn't saving from particular stage and I couldn't finish it.

[@IMS180]

Jedi fallen order, control, and God of war are linear but also inspired by metroidvanias with open ended exploration

[@callmeyachi9837]

maybe i should try this linear games as well, since i play RDR2, other open world game never feel the same again😂

[@alex97alex]

Control is the 🐐

[@JasonEisenberg81]

Anyone have a TLDW list of all 15 games?

[@yashesh7264]

what game was showcased in the thumbnail?

[@mjdawd4846]

evil west i think.

[@yashesh7264]

@@mjdawd4846 thanks man i wasn't sure it the cowboy zombie game the one jake baldino from gameranx was so excited about

[@saucegotti8538]

Linear games > Empty open worlds

[@MsMojomaster]

id say dishonored 2 should be on this list

[@sammy4211]

All games played and explored except order 1886 as it wasn't on pc

[@trashmouth825]

Help I skipped 20 seconds and landed on 18:32 ☠️

[@feeamerie5011]

Not playing Evil West is, in fact Evil.

[@87agomes]

How is Vampyr, linear? Hell, most of these arent exactly "linear" cause they present metroidvania elements like GOW for ex, with some backtracking and exploration. Vampyr, however, is very semi-open world

[@JosephEllis-ep7sg]

Ooooof there are a few real stinkers on this list

[@hegcho]

I don't know why gears 5's on the list, instead of the original trilogy, but okay.

[@snackdonw]

Farcry 3 should've been on the list bro

[@animashaunsegunnurudeen7334]

Far cry is an open world game, not linear.

[@dipanjanjha6208]

Witcher 3

[@marcprice803]

Thats not a linear game

[@RDDAMAN819_]

Dont forget the 2021 Guardians of the Galaxy game

[@Renegathu1]

to bad the order will never be released on pc

[@EDLCSonofDavid]

I've just unsubscribed from Gameranx and subscribed to this channel. Keep it up!

[@Dxxxxc227]

why not both?

[@shivammalhotra4328]

Bro Gameranx is a really valuable channel for the community. Much better than IGN

[@Dxxxxc227]

@@shivammalhotra4328 IGN specialized in another type of content. If you ask me GameSpot,the gamer rant is better than them. Hey but IGN has very detailed gameplay guides on their site.

[@robertswoboda3328]

Good list but many of these games have multiple endings and so therefore are not linear games.

[@shivammalhotra4328]

Linear in the sense, it's not open world. You go from chapter to chapter.

[@MarkWarrior1982]

Gaming is not only My Passion,it's a Religion for me and 1 day I will create a History in Gaming,no matter whatever the cost.

[@The_PaleRider]

No dude wtf not like that

[@MoZa_TV]

What you mean like a book or series on evolution of gaming?

[@omayermshams4245]

Been there. Having a couple of kids ought to reset that passion and religion.

[@tutoringamerica]

Bro we all love games but trust me as you get older you won't stop loving it but you'll have a lot less time 😂

[@frankf684]

It’s not a religion.at least I hope video games aren’t something you think are a higher power

[@Free_speech_is_dead]

Linear games are the best games. Open-world is shit

[@Dxxxxc227]

skill issue

[@Free_speech_is_dead]

@@Dxxxxc227 wtf does skill have to do with anything? Open-world is trash because its 90% fillers/padding/sidequest/fetchquest/collect-a-thon bullshit nobody wants to do to make the game feel "bigger" and "longer". waste of money and time.

Ah yes, all those twisted twists.

"Must play linear games" is an oxymoron. I DON'T PLAY linear games. They are all movie wannabe shit. Life is not linear.

[@shivammalhotra4328]

Why are you hating brother? Every game is created with a good intention

[@Circurose]

Sorry, but Control is garbage. The ending ruined every good will I had with it.
