20. Alan Wake 2 19. Hollow Knight 18. Hades 17. Mario Odyssey 16. Disco Elysium 15. Uncharted 4 14. Horizon Zero Dawn 13. Persona 5 12. Last of Us Part 2 11. Cyberpunk 2077 10. Marvel's Spiderman 9. Witcher 3 8. Final Fantasy 16 7. Astro Bot 6. Elden Ring 5. Breath of the Wild 4. Baldur's Gate 3 3. Ghost of Tsushima 2. God of War 2018 1. RDR 2 Edit (to clarify): Mojo's list
I either played or can't get into all of these games. I hated the first Alan Wake game so I won't even touch the sequel. Hallow Knight, Hades, and Persona 5 aren't my cup of tea. Disco Elysium looks boring, Marvels Spider-man was disappointing. Horizon and Witcher 3 are overpraised ( TW3 is good but it ain't the GOAT) God of War and Ghost of Tsushima combat looks bad. (I know I tried one of them) I might give Final Fantasy and Cyberpunk a shot but I doubt they can compete for my time with games like RE4, Dead Space, Demon Souls, Silent Hill 2, Hogwarts Legacy, and Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order.
Yeah. Story wise and how well they've written Arthur, it will be hard to one up that but gameplay wise, Rockstar will just elevate and raise the bar again once GTA 6 and RDR 3 comes out in the future.
@@JayV04 Absolutely agree. I found the gameplay of RDR2 to be so tedious and bogged down by it being unnecessarily over animated, especially when you pick up items.
My favourite in the last decade is still Arkham Knight, my favourite in the Arkhamverse. Yes, some of the writing could've been better, but it excelled in other ways. It's ramped up gameplay, dark, gritty, and emotional story, visually stunning world, and sense of challenge keep drawing me back. I would also give honourable mentions to Gears of War 4, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Medievil remake, Bloodborne, and Demon's Souls remake

@@gtortel9671Disco Elysium is most definitely an acquired taste. I couldn't stand it personally. I didn't see any game on this list that would make me believe that the OP would either.
@@Xoulrath_ I actually definitely agree with you I just think more people should give it a chance cause it’s such an amazing work of art with tons of deep meanings and probably my favorite world building but people tend to write it off as a murder mystery detective game when it’s really so much more
@@gtortel9671 I can agree with more people giving more games a chance across the board, not just Disco. I'd argue, and I have argued it actually, that people who get "bored" of gaming are getting bored because they've done the same damn thing over and over, every single day, for a decade. Like branch out! 🤣 So yeah, I didn't enjoy Disco, but I did give it a chance, and on two different playthroughs. It just never clicked for me. On the other hand, I stayed up waaayyy too late last night, working on Star Ocean: Second Story R. I spent literal hours in the menus spending points, going back to combat to get more points, and then straight back to the menus to spend those points. That loop works for me to get my gaming dopamine, yet I know for a fact that there are people out there who would rather poke their eyes out with a fork. We aren't all going to like the same things, but refusing to try new things is literally the death of the brain. Bad idea.
Glad that RDR2 got saved for the very end of this list. I wish that either the Dishonored or Dead Space series got an honorable mention in this list. Also thought Resident Evil 7 was a noteworthy game, given that it revitalized the horror genre within that particular game series.
Am I missing something with Cyberpunk? Everyone seemed to love it but when I sunk 50 hours into completing it when it first came out, it just felt like the world wasn't alive at all. Every mission, every side quest, every small objective was just shooting... No casino to play in, no taxi rides, not even a competent police system at launch. It was completely empty. It hasn't changed to the point where the game has completely changed so what's the deal?
Some of the games mentioned on this list I'm a fan of even though I don't have the console they appear in due to financial reasons when applied: Super Mario Odyssey; I like the Spider - Man; & God of War (all games in the franchise) games (except I'm not a fan of Miles Morales; but at the same time I don't like the system it's on due to the high price of the console); The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, & Echoes of the Wisdom;

@@zzz43344 I forgot to reply to see how many I got correct. If memory serves me correctly it was around 15. These videos are rather laughable because we should get lesser known or lesser talked about single player games not the obvious games.
Out of 20 games, 7 are from Sony studios, 2 from Nintendo, and zero exclusive to Microsoft. Perfectly explains why an exclusive single-player gamer like me never owned an Xbox. Long-live single-player games!
17:31 "no one was complaining about the current state of the Zelda franchise" - excuse me but wtf?! WTF?!?! Everyone was complaining about how formulaic and linear the games were becoming, not to mention the needless gimmicks that were forced upon the player bc Nintendo wanted to be different from the rest. These features went overboard with Skyward Sword, ultimately leading Nintendo to reconsider the basics of the whole franchise (gameplaywise) for 6 years
For the record, (before Breath of the Wild) Zelda fans were definitely complaining about the state of the series; they were becoming so predictably formulaic that Skyward Sword was the final straw for many fans including myself
It had nothing to do with the formula skyward sword was just a terrible Zelda game better than all the trash Sony releases but still embarrassing for a Zelda game.
I don't know what world these guys live in..."no one was complaining"? Dude the whole world was complaining, and it got so bad Nintendo had to focus so much resources in saving the franchise that we only got remasters and a couple of experiments for almost 7 years until the next mainline entry was released😂
@@ADe-p7d No the formula was a massive contributing factor; get the three things that make the story plot thing happen via a forest dungeon, a fire dungeon and a water dungeon, each of which you'll get an item half way through which you'll use to defeat the boss. Then the once you collected the 3 magical macguffins you'll need to get another 3 or more macguffins via a desert dungeon, a spooky dungeon and probably an original dungeon with enough unique mechanics to convince you that you haven't bought the same game again for the 6th time. Honestly, ignoring the inconsistent motion controls, awful story and bloated padded sections, Skyward Sword took the formulas established in AlttP + OoT and ran it into the ground.
These comments are harsh. I loved Skyward Sword, I actually wanted it to be the direction the series would go in after I finished it. It’s in my top 2 Zeldas easily.
@@ADe-p7dabsolutely wrong lmao. Skyward sword is really good. Even if you don’t like it, it still can rank with the best of the Zelda series. It’s not embarrassing at all,
What do you mean so far? Are you referring to so far in the 2020s? So why include games from the 2010s…? Or are we looking at games from 2014-2024? In which case the “so far” qualifier in your title is unnecessary and you simply mean to say “The 20 BEST Single Player Games of the Past Decade”.
Excellent list! I had to Google the release date for Disco Elysium because when I saw 2019 in the video, I couldn't believe it's been 5 years since we were blessed with such a masterpiece, but sure enough, it has. 😅 I would add Yakuza 0, Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, Pokémon Arceus, Metaphor ReFantazio, and Dragon Age: Inquisition as honorable mentions. I know that Veilguard just came out and I've only played 4 hours of it so far, but Inquisition was definitely better overall.
Only game on the list that doesn't belong is Last of Us 2. The first 3 Dragon Age games are awesome but so far everything I've seen & heard of Veilguard looks completely cringe.
@DragonHeart613 Yeah I actually liked The Last of Us 2, but it definitely paled in comparison to Part 1. From what I've seen and played so far with Veilguard, it's like Bioware tried to emulate what Larian Studios did with Baldur's Gate 3, but they made a Wish or Temu version of it. It's not the worst game this year (although it is the worst in the Dragon Age series), but it's far from the best.
Always great content on this channel Had to buy ps5 version of Witcher 3 after watching this (got ps4 version, unfinished) to finish it, possibly the best game ever produced and the expansion sets Thanks guys
Great list! I would have put Skyrim but then looked up how it was released in 2011, Ahhhhh!!!! One critique i have and it's same for other videos, is the rule where you pick one thing per franchise. I get why you do that and have seen rare times you break the rule, but I'd think it be cool if you broke it more often. Or have a seperate video where that rule is not there. I am sure Last of Us 1 and Tears of the Kingdom would have made it here. Maybe Metaphor. EDIT: Last of Us 1 was 2013... 🤬 I am old...
Solid list, some of these I still need to try though have been on my radar. Yes maybe this current PS5/SeriesX/end stage Switch leans to the fact that most on this list are not exclusive to a console released post 2020 outside of Nintendo. It almost is a marker of how many titles from 2014-2020 killed it, hell even 2023 was great for gamers, maybe it’s nostalgia but it feels like the ps4/xbone/beginning switch era provided us content we simply have little equal to now, Wake 2 is the exception here but it really feels like you can play any game on this list and fool yourself into thinking it was a 2024 release. I’m just waiting for the era where this current gen is putting out unarguable classics that couldn’t be done prior
Remember my fellow gamers, we all have different tastes, and this list is great nonetheless. If you don't like some of these games, that doesn't mean they suck or they are trash, it just means you don't like them. Single Player will always be better than multiplayer. True multiplayer is when you have your buddies next to you, in the same room, and online will never ever beat that
Never had the urge to buy RDR2… never played the first one… am not a fan of the „cowboy-genre“… bought RDR2 just out of boredom… now… i‘m a car-guy that has 600 hours on GT7 and 2000+ hours on RDR2. Best Game ever made. I’m not sure GTA6 will be able to beat it.
So many single player games and i just have played a few from this list like Zero Dawn and spider man. I want to play Cyberpunk 2077, The last of us part 2 before HBO release season 2, ghost of Tsushima and GOW Ragnarök as well.
Top 10 games of the past 10 years IMO are: 1. Persona 5 Royal 2. Bloodborne 3. RDR2 4. Disco Elysium 5. Hollow Knight 6. The Witcher 3 7. Omori 8. DS3 9. TLOU2 10. Hades
No hate to any of these games but since the title says games of the decade. It would make more sense if it included games from 2020 and current. Maybe mid to late 2019 should count but games from 2018 and and below belong in the 2010s.
The title should be "the most popular game of the last decade" because like who think ff16 or horizon is one of the best game in the last decade ??? put metroid dread instead.
While I agree that Metroid Dread should have been on this list, Horizon is an extremely underrated franchise, and it is refreshing in many many ways. They just made the mistake of releasing it in the same time-window as BotW and TotK
I'm so glad we've (mostly) moved past the era of blind hatred for TLOU2. It's a bold, ambitious title with a clear vision and a surprisingly uplifting message of love triumphing over grief for how bleak the events are.
MY ALL TIME SINGLE PLAYER GAMES LIST : 1) RED DEAD REDEMPTION 2 2) THE WITCHER III WILD HUNT 3) ZELDA BREATH OF THE WILD 4) GOD OF WAR / GOD OF WAR RAGNAROK 5) SUPER MARIO ODYSSEY / SUPER MARIO GALAXY 2 6) ELDEN RING 7) HORIZON FORBIDDEN WEST 8) GHOST OF TSUSHIMA 9) THE LAST OF US PART I AND II 10) ASTRO BOT 11) BLACK MYTH WUKONG 12) SPIDER-MAN 2 13)FINAL FANTASY XVI 14) UNCHARTED 4 : A THIEFS END 15) SEKIRO SHADOWS DIE TWICE 16) ORI AND THE WILL OF THE WISPS 17)BATMAN ARKHAM KNIGHT 18) RESIDENT EVIL 4 REMAKE 19) BALDURS GATE 3 20) RISE OF TOMB RAIDER
Singleplayer is my FAVOURITE video game category because I LOVE playing games ALONE defienitily I like 2D/3D platformers, action adventure and RPG/JRPG games! Because my list would be too BIG to list all games I'll list all Top 10 my FAVOURITE video game franchises: 10: Marvel's Spider-Man 9: Final Fantasy 8: Ratchet & Clank 7: Alan Wake 6: Sly Cooper 5: Xenoblade Chronicles 4: Super Mario 3: Sonic 2: The Legend of Zelda 1: Pokémon I REALLY HOPE that this list makes easier to understand about games that I LOVE and what are my FAVOURITE in this video's list like The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey I LOVE these like video game lists please make more thank you! 😊❤
NGL the fact that Horizon is on here at all, not to mention picking the first game over the second, really makes me question whoever is writing these video's taste. Also, what do you mean of the decade so far? There are tons of games before 2020. You mean of the last decade?
@@ADe-p7dGod of War, Uncharted, Tlous, Horizon etc are objectively some of the best single player games of all time let alone decade whether you like Sony games or not.
TLOU Part 2 is great gameplay wise. However, the lies during advertisements that Joel would have a presence in the game. Only to be replaced by Jessie in various parts. We don’t even get revenge, against *Urgh* Abby. She gets away with what she did.
I agree with you on the false advertising, but Abby getting away with it? I mean, she lost everyone she cared about and was enslaved for months. Death isn't the only way some can be fully punished for their sins.
In losing everything she found everything she had lost, she found Lev who gave her purpose again. Sure, she lost her friends and was enslaved but she found the fire flies. She found her family, while Joel who we spent a huge amount of time with didn’t even get a dignified death. Nor was he avenged.
@@Darksword-786don’t forget Joel killed her dad … what would you do? Just sayin. I get both sides and I think that’s really cool bout that game … shows the cycle of violence
@@chris10878 I understand it’s her dad, I think most people with healthy relationships with their fathers would do what Abby did if they could. However, I disagree with how it went down. Naughty Dog misled us, Naughty Dog expected us to sympathise with Abby after killing Joel. We all played and grew fonder of Joel, I agree Joel should have died but not in the early hours of the game.
As someone who played Ghost of Tsushima, God of Waw, Breath of the wild, Red Dead Redemption 2, Tears of the kingdom, Horizon, GTA, Elden Ring, Spiderman, Fenyx Rising, and others I find it difficult to so see how Baldur's Gate III is fun as for me it's very boring and not to my taste of open world games
Well, it’s different from the games you listed in that it’s not like an action rpg, the combat is very different. It did a great job of pulling players from all genres which is an amazing feat, even if the game isn’t for everyone

Everyone was complaining about how formulaic and linear the games were becoming, not to mention the needless gimmicks that were forced upon the player bc Nintendo wanted to be different from the rest. These features went overboard with Skyward Sword, ultimately leading Nintendo to reconsider the basics of the whole franchise (gameplaywise) for 6 years
For the record, (before Breath of the Wild) Zelda fans were definitely complaining about the state of the series; they were becoming so predictably formulaic that Skyward Sword was the final straw for many fans including myself
It had nothing to do with the formula skyward sword was just a terrible Zelda game better than all the trash Sony releases but still embarrassing for a Zelda game.
I don't know what world these guys live in..."no one was complaining"? Dude the whole world was complaining, and it got so bad Nintendo had to focus so much resources in saving the franchise that we only got remasters and a couple of experiments for almost 7 years until the next mainline entry was released😂
@@ADe-p7d No the formula was a massive contributing factor; get the three things that make the story plot thing happen via a forest dungeon, a fire dungeon and a water dungeon, each of which you'll get an item half way through which you'll use to defeat the boss. Then the once you collected the 3 magical macguffins you'll need to get another 3 or more macguffins via a desert dungeon, a spooky dungeon and probably an original dungeon with enough unique mechanics to convince you that you haven't bought the same game again for the 6th time. Honestly, ignoring the inconsistent motion controls, awful story and bloated padded sections, Skyward Sword took the formulas established in AlttP + OoT and ran it into the ground.
These comments are harsh. I loved Skyward Sword, I actually wanted it to be the direction the series would go in after I finished it. It’s in my top 2 Zeldas easily.
@@ADe-p7dabsolutely wrong lmao. Skyward sword is really good. Even if you don’t like it, it still can rank with the best of the Zelda series. It’s not embarrassing at all,
Doom Eternal and RE4R aren't here? Oh boy...
comment that made me go upstairs and boot up re4r
What do you mean so far? Are you referring to so far in the 2020s? So why include games from the 2010s…?
Or are we looking at games from 2014-2024? In which case the “so far” qualifier in your title is unnecessary and you simply mean to say “The 20 BEST Single Player Games of the Past Decade”.
Pretty awesome that I own almost all of these. Now actually having the time to play them, on the other hand...
Excellent list! I had to Google the release date for Disco Elysium because when I saw 2019 in the video, I couldn't believe it's been 5 years since we were blessed with such a masterpiece, but sure enough, it has. 😅 I would add Yakuza 0, Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, Pokémon Arceus, Metaphor ReFantazio, and Dragon Age: Inquisition as honorable mentions. I know that Veilguard just came out and I've only played 4 hours of it so far, but Inquisition was definitely better overall.
Only game on the list that doesn't belong is Last of Us 2.
The first 3 Dragon Age games are awesome but so far everything I've seen & heard of Veilguard looks completely cringe.
@DragonHeart613 Yeah I actually liked The Last of Us 2, but it definitely paled in comparison to Part 1. From what I've seen and played so far with Veilguard, it's like Bioware tried to emulate what Larian Studios did with Baldur's Gate 3, but they made a Wish or Temu version of it. It's not the worst game this year (although it is the worst in the Dragon Age series), but it's far from the best.
Always great content on this channel
Had to buy ps5 version of Witcher 3 after watching this (got ps4 version, unfinished) to finish it, possibly the best game ever produced and the expansion sets
Thanks guys
In the first and second place I only accept Elden Ring and RDR2.
They're not ranked. They're just 20 dope ass single player games
Red Dead Redemption II. An absolute titan.
Those games don't even make my Top 100. 😂🤷♂️
To each, their own.
Ehh i never played them so I cant relate
Top 10 but not 1 and 2
Great list!
Uncharted 4: “You are an unnecessary inclusion of Naughty Dog’s legacy.”
Last of Us 2: “There’s nothing you can do to stop me!”
Uncharted👍
Last of Us 2👎💩👎
Bait or Retardation. Call it
Uncharted is way better imo
Great list man 👍
Great list ! The respect & fun that these games have can never be surpassed by the likes of mtx filled season pass based multiplayer games !
Why are Like a Dragon and Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth consistently overlooked?
Tears of the Kingdom deserves to be on the list too, with it's own spot or at least sharing the same spot as Breath of the Wild.
TOTK was the better game but BOTW really revolutionised the entire genre
No. It doesn’t possess the same freshness BOTW had. There was not much of a purpose to explore and the story is kinda lame.
I love botw but disliked totk
@@badmeetsevil6163just wrong.
@@JaMi2310 you are
Why does this thumbnail look so nostalgic it's like I have seen the same thing elsewhere or here
Great list! I would have put Skyrim but then looked up how it was released in 2011, Ahhhhh!!!!
One critique i have and it's same for other videos, is the rule where you pick one thing per franchise. I get why you do that and have seen rare times you break the rule, but I'd think it be cool if you broke it more often. Or have a seperate video where that rule is not there. I am sure Last of Us 1 and Tears of the Kingdom would have made it here. Maybe Metaphor.
EDIT: Last of Us 1 was 2013... 🤬 I am old...
awesome job about The BEST Single Player Game of the Last Decade from Top 20
When you reached game no 19, i was ready to bet all my money the last one would be rdr2
So many sneaks in here but Single-player will always remain king
Solid list, some of these I still need to try though have been on my radar. Yes maybe this current PS5/SeriesX/end stage Switch leans to the fact that most on this list are not exclusive to a console released post 2020 outside of Nintendo. It almost is a marker of how many titles from 2014-2020 killed it, hell even 2023 was great for gamers, maybe it’s nostalgia but it feels like the ps4/xbone/beginning switch era provided us content we simply have little equal to now, Wake 2 is the exception here but it really feels like you can play any game on this list and fool yourself into thinking it was a 2024 release. I’m just waiting for the era where this current gen is putting out unarguable classics that couldn’t be done prior
Final Fantasy VII Remake/Rebirth should've been at least an honourary mention, considering how much fans wanted to see it happen
Remember my fellow gamers, we all have different tastes, and this list is great nonetheless. If you don't like some of these games, that doesn't mean they suck or they are trash, it just means you don't like them. Single Player will always be better than multiplayer. True multiplayer is when you have your buddies next to you, in the same room, and online will never ever beat that
Final fantasy 16 is the ultimate power fantasy single player game!
HAHAHAHA make fool yourself
@@erwinjimenez3885 I read this comment in my head as the voice of a Cyclops or bridge troll
How could you forget about the beloved xenoblade 3 n like a dragon infinite wealth?
Bro forgot my boi SKYRIM
Unfortunately, Skyrim came out in 2011, which wouldn’t count.😕
finally a proper game list!
Amazing list, I would also include xenoblade chronicles 3, final fantasy vii rebirth and metaphor refantazio, yeah jrpg fan 😂😂😂
What's the Uncharted theme cover playing in the background?
Never had the urge to buy RDR2… never played the first one… am not a fan of the „cowboy-genre“… bought RDR2 just out of boredom… now… i‘m a car-guy that has 600 hours on GT7 and 2000+ hours on RDR2. Best Game ever made. I’m not sure GTA6 will be able to beat it.
So many single player games and i just have played a few from this list like Zero Dawn and spider man. I want to play Cyberpunk 2077, The last of us part 2 before HBO release season 2, ghost of Tsushima and GOW Ragnarök as well.
Those games are incredible
Top 10 games of the past 10 years IMO are:
1. Persona 5 Royal
2. Bloodborne
3. RDR2
4. Disco Elysium
5. Hollow Knight
6. The Witcher 3
7. Omori
8. DS3
9. TLOU2
10. Hades
The Ghost of Tsushima sneak
I agree with pretty much all of those picks, but I love Shadow Of Mordor!!!
Metaphor Refantazio should have been 1
Of the decade? Come on man, the game only just came out.
You’re silly
Let's not get crazy...
It's 1 by far,people who say no didn't play this game
hehe a real FANBOI huh...
No hate to any of these games but since the title says games of the decade. It would make more sense if it included games from 2020 and current. Maybe mid to late 2019 should count but games from 2018 and and below belong in the 2010s.
It would be 2021-2030. They should prob change it to last 10 years
The narrator says of the last 10 years , so they mean from 2014 until now , the title needs to be changed
I agree but the unfortunate thing is there wouldn't be 20 good games 😢
@@dosomething6975 There has been plenty of great games since 2020
A decade just means 10 years. _Any_ consecutive 10 year period qualifies as a decade, not just the designated 00s, 10s, 20s, etc. units on a timeline.
Resident Evil 2 remake should be on this list.
Kingdom Come Deliverance belongs on this list for sure.
The title should be "the most popular game of the last decade" because like who think ff16 or horizon is one of the best game in the last decade ??? put metroid dread instead.
They somehow put FF16 but not Nier Automata, like wth hahahahha
Exactly! Like how is cyberpunk on this list
While I agree that Metroid Dread should have been on this list, Horizon is an extremely underrated franchise, and it is refreshing in many many ways. They just made the mistake of releasing it in the same time-window as BotW and TotK
Horizon deserves it's place
Happy to see Uncharted 4 make the list!!
Man, what I wouldn’t give for a Red Dead 3. Take my money already, Rockstar!
Dordogne and Ori Blind/Will are most beautiful.
How am I supposed to track if there’s no chapters? Make damn time stamps.
Whats crazy is 8 or 9 of these are Playstation exclusives... CRAZY !! And i would've added Blasphemous and Dead Cells to the list but thats just me.
I'm so glad we've (mostly) moved past the era of blind hatred for TLOU2. It's a bold, ambitious title with a clear vision and a surprisingly uplifting message of love triumphing over grief for how bleak the events are.
Clear win for Playstation. The only games I personally would add are Yakuza 0 and the FF7 Remake.
My bad. I thought when they said ‘decade so far’ I thought the 2020’s 🤷♂️
Honorable mentions:
Nier: Automata
Freedom Planet
Freedom Planet 2
Tears of the Kingdom is GOAT of single player games

Singleplayer is my FAVOURITE video game category because I LOVE playing games ALONE defienitily I like 2D/3D platformers, action adventure and RPG/JRPG games! Because my list would be too BIG to list all games I'll list all Top 10 my FAVOURITE video game franchises:

I REALLY HOPE that this list makes easier to understand about games that I LOVE and what are my FAVOURITE in this video's list like The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey I LOVE these like video game lists please make more thank you! 😊❤
Uncharted main theme in the background is kinda forshadowing :)
It's an Uncharted remixed theme actually from Astro Bot's official soundtrack
Am i dumb or the decade was started in 2020?
I mean what Botw and other 2010-s games does on that list?
Uncharted 4 that below was hurting
the list is rage bait for the comment section. Any interaction is good. the voice-over doesn't even know what a decade is, sounds about right lol
NGL the fact that Horizon is on here at all, not to mention picking the first game over the second, really makes me question whoever is writing these video's taste.
Also, what do you mean of the decade so far? There are tons of games before 2020. You mean of the last decade?
The fact any Sony game is on here is more than enough evidence that these guys are clueless
@@ADe-p7dGod of War, Uncharted, Tlous, Horizon etc are objectively some of the best single player games of all time let alone decade whether you like Sony games or not.
@ no they aren’t I’ve played them all and they’re all boring walking simulators
@ also lmao at horizon it’s a pathetic open world that is boring as hell
@@ADe-p7dyour opinion isn’t a fact? What’s your list?
I only played 7 of them + 1 demo. Some of them are on my list though.
FfVII rebirth is better than 90% if not all the games listed (you can make a case for BotW and BG3)
Detroit become human was a masterpiece, too.
TLOU Part 2 is great gameplay wise. However, the lies during advertisements that Joel would have a presence in the game. Only to be replaced by Jessie in various parts. We don’t even get revenge, against *Urgh* Abby. She gets away with what she did.
I agree with you on the false advertising, but Abby getting away with it? I mean, she lost everyone she cared about and was enslaved for months. Death isn't the only way some can be fully punished for their sins.
In losing everything she found everything she had lost, she found Lev who gave her purpose again. Sure, she lost her friends and was enslaved but she found the fire flies. She found her family, while Joel who we spent a huge amount of time with didn’t even get a dignified death. Nor was he avenged.
@@Darksword-786don’t forget Joel killed her dad … what would you do? Just sayin. I get both sides and I think that’s really cool bout that game … shows the cycle of violence
@@chris10878 I understand it’s her dad, I think most people with healthy relationships with their fathers would do what Abby did if they could. However, I disagree with how it went down. Naughty Dog misled us, Naughty Dog expected us to sympathise with Abby after killing Joel. We all played and grew fonder of Joel, I agree Joel should have died but not in the early hours of the game.
@ I can agree with that 👌🏻
Tears of the kingdom is just a better breath of the wild don’t let nostalgia fool you
Hoping Persona 5 Royale is on here. Such a great story and experience.
As someone who played Ghost of Tsushima, God of Waw, Breath of the wild, Red Dead Redemption 2, Tears of the kingdom, Horizon, GTA, Elden Ring, Spiderman, Fenyx Rising, and others I find it difficult to so see how Baldur's Gate III is fun as for me it's very boring and not to my taste of open world games
Well, it’s different from the games you listed in that it’s not like an action rpg, the combat is very different.
It did a great job of pulling players from all genres which is an amazing feat, even if the game isn’t for everyone
Great list Watchmojo 👌🏿 👍 ❤💯😎🙏
So Alan Wake 2 makes the list but DOOM Eternal and Half Life ALYX are nowhere to be found?
devil may cry, kingdom hearts, nier, bayonetta, resident evil 4 original. final fantasy 7. Astro bot shoukd not be there
Mgs4
Is that Madara's voice actor in the beginning?
damn not a single xbox game in sight
I have elden ring on the newest Xbox lol
