The original Dead Space felt really lonely. Isaac didn't speak back then and you have crew talking in your ear every once in a while until they get killed too. Just wandering around on the spaceship with no one else around you except mutated people, it feels very lonely.
@@visionhawk4403 it made me think of Super Metroid in it's loneliness... although way more body horror lol
Undead mutated zombies, you mean.
Loved both Dead Space games. (I refuse to believe in No.3. EA...WHAT DID YOU DOOOOOOO?!?!?!!) Atmospheric. Utterly terrifying. Truly different at their core. Exceptional. Still not played the remake yet but I'm getting to it.
Same in Alien:Isolation
seems fun just like my everyday
I like everyone to go off before me who is watching me.@xeofang
You live in Nebraska 👀 ?
Going for the liminal space feel.
Feel that so hard
Hey Neon wassup
I just clicked on the link but I just know Subnautica has to be on this list. Frankly Firewatch doesn't count but it should
Literally went the entire list thinking "is SUBNAUTICA next!?"😅😅
They always mention subnautica in most lists. I think it's the gamranks company all time favorite game
@@bryanaksten5258 🤔🙂Not really! I'd say stuff like RDR2 or, or, *OR... C.O.D!?*
ESPECIALLY cuz of Firewatchs end. Dam u know who! 😢😂
Firewatch surprised me. I genuinely enjoyed it. Not normally a walking sim kinda gal.....tend to read a book if I'm after that kinda mood 😂
The first Talos Principle... Man! I'm not saying that game changed me, but definitely had a BIG impression on me.
Why? Is it like nier automata?
Pneuma: Breath of Life, Homesick.
@@andrewvirtue5048 No, no. Not even remotely similar. Think more like.. Portal minus portals, with a major tendency to wax philosophical.
hell yeah, glad to see Talos Principle being mentioned. one of my favourite games of all time. The second is likewise phenomenal
All the games that give you an animal companion don't feel lonely to me at all. I personally have a career that keeps me pretty isolated from other people for most of the time, but I *always* have at least one animal that I'm working and cooperating with (tracking/detection dogs, herding dogs, my horse, etc), so that feels familiar to me.
You don't need spoken dialogue to feel like you have good company, especially if it's a friend or cooperative partner that sticks with you for your whole journey (like in Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian). And you're definitely not the only living thing in an empty landscape when there's another living, breathing creature right next to you the whole time, sharing the same experience.
HALF LIFE 2 RAVENHOLM WAS ALSO LONELY BECAUSE THE GAME SOLD BILLIONS ON PC AROUND THE GALXY AND THATS ONLY THE PC EDITION OF THE GAME HALF LIFE 2 GOTY
Jake calling me out in the first ten seconds.
He really didn’t need to attack us that hard
Hey thanks for telling me who was hosting this one, so I know not to even waste a second anticipating who I’m gonna be hearing from on this one 🫡
@@billyalarie929wut
Jake The is not allowed to call people out. He’s the fucking Casual of all casuals.
@@billyalarie929It was hosted by the united states of america junior high all star trump biden pickled anus constitutional amendment veterans society
One game that makes u feel completely lonely is SOMA. That game was great! And makes u feel this knot in ur stomach on how it ends
Hell yes it does.
How much time do you think you've saved by using u instead of you?
Great pick! Lot of love for SOMA in the comments. Maybe we need to bring out a part 2?
That game messed me up
@@erikneill3590 same man..I was like 😮 at the end lol
A recommendation for this list, an Indy came titled "Infra". Yeah you do talk on the phone to your boss sometimes, but a majority of the time you're checking out the infrastructure of a city, out of touch from everyone, as you document the system's flaws and discover a weird random story as to WHY it's falling apart.
So glad to see The Long Dark on one of these list. I believe it is one of the most underrated games ever.
22:17 | Your character in Shadow of the Colossus is called Wanda. Hes not unnamed, at least not in the original PS2 version.
Kinda surprised Halo ODST's Rookie sections were not on the list. It nailed the feeling of being completely alone in a recently dead city.
Love that game, my favorite Halo campaign. And the soundtrack is *chef’s kiss
HALF LIFES RAVENHOLM DID IT BETTER WHICH IS WHY EVERYONE ON THE PLNET BILLIONS PLAYED IT AROUND THE GALAXY HALF LUFE 2 BILLIONS PLAYED AROUND GALAXY ON PC
@@NigerianCrusader I never played it lmfao
@@VoxKrynn YOU MISSING PUT BOY
GET HALF PIFE 2 NOW FOR PC OR XBOX 360
Why is the gameplay footage after each entry always someone who has no clue what they are doing? Lol
I assume there's just a massive folder for each game that has footage from each one. Probably just a click and drag/crop thing they do
its so frustrating to watch isn't it lmao
Not that big of a deal
Sorry dude, I did my best!
Cus they use my gameplay footage.
So glad you had The Long Dark on the list. It is so good and something special. Love Subnautica too.
Dysmantle is a great little indie game that has you all alone in a world.
Also, Riftbreaker is a survival/crafting/basebuilder where you're on an alien planet. Just you, your AI mech, and a bunch of hostile aliens.
Serious Sam would fit right in, the whole premise is that you're the last human in the universe so you have to travel in time to find a way of saving earth, but as it turns out humanity was also viped out in the past.
"More alone then you already are" oof, i felt that 😔
Did the player, in the Ethan Carter game, dodge the GHOST TRAIN? I'm sorry but it's a GHOST TRAIN lol you don't have to move out of the way because IT's A GHOST TRAIN. P.S. My favorite channel on YT
Stranded Deep should be on the next video. Youre so alone that you have to build your base on tini tiny wittle islands 🏝
Agreed.
HALF LIFE 2 RAVENHOLM IS BETRER BECAUSE THE GAME IS SOLD BILLIONS ACROSS THE GALAXY WHICH IS JUST INCLUDING THE PC EDITION OF THE GAME
I did not know Myst had been remade! That game was a necessity growing up. So beautiful!
An amazing game that challenged a generation of gamers 😊
They just released the remake of Riven
Both Myst and Riven now. And I highly recommend Obduction, if you haven't played it yet.
Yeah that game was cool, my father had it for his computer, he loved that game
Oh Returnal my beloved. Still one of the greatest games I ever played, can´t wait for what Housemarque is cooking next.
0:04 Nah Jake, that one was personal lol
happy you mentioned "everybodys gone to the rapture" .. i love the game.. the soundtrack.. atmospehere.. x3
Praey For the Gods is very Shadow of the Collossus-inspired and you can see that in its similar level of isolation.
The game has you stranded on a frozen island in a dying world, and that isolation is only reinforced as you find the remains of previous inhabitants and diaries of their experiences, plus the occasional ruins covered in ominous hieroglyphs hinting at a previous disaster. Even the “gods” you have to fight look like half-decayed corpses, which only further gives the sense of you being the only living person.
What is amazing about project Zomboid is that it all started on their own website, they were selling this very basic version for something like 10 USD. They then gave Steam Keys for free to original owners when it released there. It's amazing the difference between this original version and now, the one I first played you only had your home, maybe a couple neighbors, and that's it, you had to survive the Zombies infinite onslaught with very limited resources.
After all, there is also the cake. Or is there? #portal
haha, Vsauce reference?
@@ajinkyakale2302it's a Portal reference...🤦🏻♂️
The cake is a lie!
I would put Leviathan: The old city as #1. I agree with the list, but it’s not even close to how lonely it feels in this game, absolutely unique melancholic experience.
good to see a game list that does not contain RDR2, witcher 3, Ghost of Tshushima, skyrim etc etc.... great work guys. The list comntains some really unique games.
All 4 of those games wouldn't be on this list anyway, as those worlds are filled with NPC's.
Thanks for watching! :D
Hot take: I liked ICO BETTER than Shadow of the colossus....!
they’re both amazing everyone wins!
But bro both ico and shadow of the colossus are great games so yeah both are great
Soma?? it feels pretty alone playing that
Soma, in my opinion is the best horror I have ever played.
yeah tbh that should have made the list before Metroid Prime
Agreed. That game touches on some pretty crazy topics too.
There's many interactions with NPC's in that game though
@@Randallsilver At the beginning yes. When you wake up in the facility you are literally the only sentient being left on the planet. Everyone else is dead.
I was expecting to see Jusant on this list somewhere
why should i pay money for games of being alone while im already experiencing it
Because you're the one that can acknowledge whether this is a true enlightened alone experience or not
Zombies and space stations
Metroid is a great pick for #1. One of the first games of my childhood where i felt totally alone in the game.
This is one of those lists where I think "I should check some of these games out" only to realize I already have almost all of them in my Steam library.
Love Project Zomboid, so excited for build 42. Great video, few games on this I will def check out.
Glad we pointed out some games worth checking out :) Which in particular are you interested in playing?
@@gameranxTV "Everyone's gone to the Rapture" seems pretty interesting visually, don't mind a decent walking sim from time to time if the worlds well done - I should get that and "The Invincible" and have a, just go for a walk weekend :).
"the pathless" gameplay/art style looked pretty intriguing, I love tight snappy movement in a game (Roboquest is one of my fav's lately based a lot on how good the movement feels).
And I don't want to say this too loud... but I was never in a position to play "Shadow of the Colossus" and feel I've missed out a bit as a a gamer because of it.
Dysmantle is definitely a game that gave me that lonely feeling, just you and lots of zombies. The setting leaves you feeling that there were once (living) people there, but for a significant portion of the game you've got no idea what happened to them.
Didn’t mention what remains of Edith finch?
I would say they had plenty of walking sims on the list. You could make the entire list out of nothing but walking sims, so I'm glad they didn't.
I was thinking the same thing the whole list.
Vibe of that game should've definitely placed it on this list. You're literally last one standing on your family tree
To add to this list, The Town of Light. You play a lady who returns to an abandoned asylum and piece together your horrific past. It is a walking simulator, but it is harrowing. Can be completed in one setting, but it will remain with you.
great game.
Dead Space & Prey may have had a couple live souls in the area, but they felt so lonely, they were chef's kiss.
Also, ALAN WAKE 2's sections of Alan were superbly lonely. I loved it.
Alien isolation would be my top pick, even though there’s a few moments where you’re with another survivor, those are really few and far between. Still Wakes the Deep would make the list for me for the same reasons.
Two very niche indies you might look up - PROTEUS is a tiny no-lose walking sim but the world it puts you in is fantastic for how lo-res it is, and EIDOLON which is a more open-ended post-apocalypse wilderness explorer with a very lonely vibe.
Dropped in to mention Proteus, thumbs up!
We need more games where you the player is alone.
Also nice vid
Yes! There's afew other games I'd personally include in this lisy
Always nice to see Project Zomboid be talked about.
Glad you’re also enjoying Project Zomboid! Thanks for watching! :)
Scorn should be on this list, it’s literally the best example of a lonely game
Myst was one of the first games I played to it's conclusion. I was in first school. Me and my 3 nerdy computer friends who were learning basic programming on QBasic were given a copy by our (equally nerdy) science/IT teacher.
Mr. Atkins, if you are with us and somehow reading this comment, thank you for being such a brilliant guy and letting us program our own version of Pong and Snake during class! I have grown up to be a proud nerd and sound techie - largely down to your influence. All the love.❤
When playing The Witness, I actually had a notebook that I kept writing in and referring to. I drew patterns, wrote down some key lore elements, and even made annotations to things I had written earlier as I went along. If you like puzzle games, this one is an absolute gem that should not be missed .I got it for free one month on PS Plus and I really feel like I straight up robbed them because the game was phenomenal and I would have happily paid for it.
Good old Myst, that game does have a really eerie and yes lonely atmosphere. Honourable mention for Sons of the Forest? You don't have to play alone but you can. Particularly if you get rid of Kelvin and Virginia.
Love to see Planet Crafter getting some attention, it’s easily one of my favorite games on Steam at the moment. It’s honestly really relaxing, taking a break from shooting and fighting in other games to just collect resources, build shit, and terraform your planet into a livable Earth.
Glad to see the vanishing of ethan carter named, would have loved to see a UE5 version of this; the astronauts' art direction was amazing in that game
I think "The Light Remake" would also fit very well in this Video, its a small russian dev and his work is great. An upcoming title from Носков Сергей called, "Hail to the Rainbow" could be worth to put in a video. This will be a spectacular game, and more people need to see this.
The loneliest game I've ever played is SOMA. There were just a couple of NPCs. One interaction with an NPC is the saddest moment for me in gaming.
Zomboid proves that you don't need amazing graphics to be immersive.
You got that right!
It's gotta be SOMA for me, no game has ever made me feel so isolated, and it just oozes that existential dread of loneliness mixed with haunting echos of the past! Especially with that ending, you're just left with a feeling of being left in an empty void forever with no hope of ever escaping!
If we’re talking about old games, the loneliest I have played were; Myst and Morpheus. Both point n click puzzle games and both very lonely.
Nice, a rare shout-out for Planet Crafter; definitely underrated.
(Was wondering if you'd mention Myst. Nailed it, brother.)
Played Metroid Prime for the first time ever thanks to the Remastered version, and was so hooked. It’s like they perfected the Metroidvania formula while bringing it to 3 dimensions instead of keeping it constrained in the traditional 2D space of metroidvanias (not that there’s anything wrong with 2D games, they can still be amazing). What I loved the most is how superbly done all the environmental storytelling and lore drops are done. Really felt like a lived-in world.
Not sure if anyones put this out there, but surprised Adrift wasn't posted. Wake up in a destroyed space station, frantically trying to keep your O2 full while finding out what happened, why the space station you and your crew were working on, exploded all while gently floating through corridors and doing light puzzles to proceed.
Firewatch, while technically not fitting this, kind of does fit because you are intentionally never face to face with other characters.
The protagonist of shadow of the colossus has a name. His name is Wander.
I feel like No Man’s Sky should get an honorable mention. Sure there is the one station with other people, but the bulk of the time you are totally alone
You're not completely alone (you have comms), but Red Matter on the Oculus brings loneliness to an entirely new level since it's a VR experience.
Subnautica and Snowrunner, hell yeah 👍
It’s hard to explain to people how satisfying Snowrunner is because it’s about getting stuck, and then getting unstuck 😂
Montana used to be like Jake mentioned in The Long Dark where you could feel like the only person for miles in the woods, then out of state people ruined it. Now you can be in the most isolated place possible and it can confused for a sidewalk in LA.
شكرا! فيديو كنت احتاجه ❤
A good atmosphere is everything in this type of games.
Jake: "Hey do you want to feel alone?"
please dont 😢
Thank you for my daily dose of flashbang transitions.
Lastly, Obduction is a follow up from the makers of Myst. A bit cooler as you are transported to another world that has puzzles of other worlds glued together to create a disjoint town. You have to find your way out of this place and solve what happened to all of the people who left this "village".
What remains of Edith Finch was really isolating. Always thought something was going to happen. I’d also add original No Man Sky before updates. I never felt that sense of isolation before. The galaxy was vast and you never saw a soul. Not even the aliens right away. Leaving my home planet for the first time was a type of anxiety I’d never felt.
Immediately news subnautica should be on this list! Was skipping through to find it/or comment how it should be on this list. What makes the game even more eerie, is that you continuously find empty life pots of your fellow ventures. Reminding you that you are indeed alone. Great game!
Hey Gameranx, you guys should do a video on old games that you can still play online!
It makes my heart happy to see the long dark on this list. Absolutely one of my all time favorites
I think Soma also falls into the same category. A unique experience.
Glad to see Myst made it in the list. It is literally the godfather of games where you are by yourself.
I loved Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture. I played it on a whim and was blown away by the atmosphere of it. I also really like Gone Home as a lonely game.
Was getting worried when at #3 Planet Crafter had been mentioned but not Subnautica haha. Even even better yet, I’m playing Metroid Prime while watching this video 😂
Outer wilds. You're not alone but you feel that way most of the time
A Gameranx list where every game I thought of was covered. I'm impressed.
Senua 1 is a masterpiece and fell of the edge with the 2nd game just WHY
In Planet Crafter you're a convict serving out your sentence
"Firewatch" on the switch from 2016 had you spend the entire game completely isolated, if I remember correctly
Ico could feel pretty lonely, even when you had the princess, Yorda, at your side for much of the game's events. This was largely due in part to the language barrier preventing the pair from fully understanding one another. And the castle setting was incredible, being trapped within a labyrinthine structure that's also located atop multiple rocky structures, leaving you with no choice but to navigate the castle for a safe means of escape.
Subnautica is hands down the most terrifying game I have ever played. No spoilers but if you know you know.
Pacific Drive should have made the list.
I was pretty surprised how lonely I felt when I first played LoZ: Twlight Princess, especially in the beginning. Like...when most of the world is covered in Twilight and you have to be a wolf, you cant talk to anyone. Almost feels like youre the ghost in those parts. It doesnt stay lonely, obviously but there were parts thay actually felt kinda depressingly lonely for a Zelda game...
I really love The Long Dark got it both on PC and console.
Y'all are just bots. This is the dead Internet, I'm already alone.
Womp womp
Look at this Ai gone rouge
LMFAO
Web 1.0 is where it's at, when dial-up was the boss and if you had broadband, the speeds were 512k.
Damn... Those good old days.
@@reggiep75 I miss those days when I had to delete a picture that was 6mb is size so I could have more room on my hard drive to install a game. Now you need multiple gigs of space for a 'patch'.
How did you all miss J.U.L.I.A?
It's a game where you're woken from cryo sleep on your ship, orbiting a planet, and no one else is there with you, just the two AI. So you try to get back in contact with the planet base, and everyone is dead. So then you try to piece together what happened, and once you do that, you go back to the other base in this solar system your team was exploring, and, guess what? Everyone is dead there, too. So you try to figure out what happened to these guys while you were sleeping, trying to get back to main mission base as well as the last planet that you were all supposed to be gathering data on with a new sentient life form.
It has a lot of puzzle solving to access locked environments, a lot of reading apocalypse logs, and then trying to put the information into a timeline to figure out what the heck happened to these people.
Surprised RDR2 Online isn’t on here 😂
i was playing Planet of Lana and thinking it's like a 2d Last Guardian and wishing they'd make a PC port of Last Guardian cuz i don't have a ps4/5
An obvious one for if you do a part 2: Pacific Drive. You speak to some people over the radio but you never see another living soul. So bleak and unforgiving. Great game.
No Soma? I can't think of any game that captures the feeling of being completely alone and left behind in the world better than Soma.
Lot of comments pointed out Soma. Our miss! Should we bring out a part 2?
There is a game called the Solus Project on Steam. It has an amazing, lonely feel to it. It's just you on an alien planet. The graphics are fantastic, and the music just adds to the isolation vibe. It's one of my favorite games.
Also, Superliminal. A little bit Stanley Parable, a little bit Witness, but a lot of Alice in Wonderland. Great mechanic to teach one to look for new pespectives on problems.
Lot of puzzle games are empty world games. e.g. Rethink series.
I was hoping Gone Home would be on this list. It felt really eerie, like a monster or something would jump out at you from nowhere
Ender Lilies: Quietus of the Knights really nailed the loneliness, hopelessness, and despair for me. It manages to make you feel almost helpless, coupled with the very sad and depressing storyline. So sad it didn't get much traction
I feel like dark souls 3 and the surge should be included
I love the Myst games so much. My mom used to play them when they first came out and then got me into them several years a go and the world is just so cool and interesting.
Have to mention a very low key game called Fragile Dream: Fairwell Ruins of the Moon. THe game literally is about a post apocalype world where everyone died/spirited away because of a failed experiment, except you and a lonely girl, and your only purpose in life now is to find her because you are lonely, and the girl is also at the verge of disappearing. A very sad and hopeless game.
shadow of the colossus
I had one of those black ps1 Demo Disc's with the game on it.
I remember sepeedrunning that when i was a kid.
couldn't afford to get it bak then.
I have like 4 games I have in my archive to play that’s on this list. Another great job fellaz!!
I'm gonna throw in SOMA to the list. If you haven't played it you should go do it now. A masterpiece it is.
