Battlefield 1 always made me feel like I was truly at war, the sounds of explosions and gunshots were so good.

[TihetrisWeathersby]

Kingdom Come Deliverance became of my favorite games of all time, It feels like a true RPG. It also helped me realize I was a huge medieval nerd.

[kadenfauble]

Watch Dogs 2 is such a good and fun game. Especially with friends just goofing off. I have SO many memories with that game, it makes me sad that I don't hear about it more often

[shriduttbhatt]

This is why I just love open world games. The level of design and immersion based on how much you can interact with the world is so much fun to explore. I hope open world RPGs never go out of style.

Dude ngl, playing through Watch Dogs 2 made me feel like I have actually visited San Francisco.. it's INSANE how realistic they made it feel & how unique every inch of the map is. The NPCs are so diverse with the way they dress, look & act and it isn't just a complete mashup of people, it all just makes sense and fits together so perfectly. I have such fond memories of that game & the world definitely had a lot to do with it!

[CommanderCodyChipless]

I am ecstatic that you guys added Kingdom Come Deliverance in this line-up. Truly one of my favorite RPG experiences. The game really makes you feel like you started off as a blacksmiths son and ended up as a hero of medieval times. Or a villain of medieval times. The perk system is very satisfying, with perks that are just so unique and compliment the player so well.

When I played GTA 4 a few years ago, the car chase through the time square area felt really insane to me for some reason, even though there are so many far more over the top moments. Because GTA 4 world is so convincing and immersive, it just made me think about how crazy something like that would be in real life.

[MODDED]

L.A. Noire is absolutely incredible when it comes to setting the tone and mood that the player is set in. Each case is unique and all have there "big" moments and I love that a lot in L.A. Noire.

Watch dogs 2 is my favorite open world map ever, there's so much detail everywhere you go, I love slowly walking through the pedestrian areas banging some tunes

[oldmandan]

Kingdom Come is such an amazing piece of art. They have real life locations, whether it be buildings, landscape terrain, and the sounds even of the wet ground, the rain. I feel like I intimately know the Bohemian countryside

[Vcjutko]

Nothing better than being immersed into the game!

[svpracer]

Watchdogs 2 was what I wanted more of in 3... The gameplay felt unusually smooth and interaction with the NPCs felt natural.

[snoookie]

Mafia Definitive Edition is an amazing game. Story-wise, visuals, the actors, everything is just incredible.

[lorenzochiappa]

I think that Boston from AC 3 is one of the best build cities of the franchise. Walking around on the streets was truly immersive

[AngryBouy]

LA Noire is another one that could be mentioned. Technically not an open-world game, but quite detailed for its time.

[solarka]

I really loved how in the first watch dogs you can just hop on a train and drive around in real time, instead of the screen fading to black. Such train systems for some reason always elevate a game world for me

[misterpooter]

Loved the SF in Watch Dogs 2... grew up in SF and felt so nostalgic during lockdown and I legit spent hours just walking/driving around WD2 and could recognize a lot of key landmarks.

[lemimu]

God thank you for crediting Kingdom Come, for me it's by far the most immersive game i've played, and the feeling that it's lived in really helps <33

[DJTrek]

Man, you guys really knocked it out of the park with this one. Your videos are always top quality, but this one - wow. As always, thanks for the amazing work, Gameranx fam!

[HorusDeathtouch]

This is the first time I've heard someone call AC Syndicate the GOAT besides myself. Thank you, sir.
