That is a super hard question. Currently, I would have to say my top 3 favorite games, in no particular order, are:
  1. The Legend of Dragoon: This is the game that really got me into video games when I was young. It holds a special place in my heart. Not to mention the epic feeling of completing a game that was 4 disks long.
  2. Pathfinder 2e: I have always loved TTRPGs. I started with DnD 3.5 but found Pathfinder later. I don't really like some of the choices WoTC and Hasbro have made in recent times, so I tried PF2e and absolutely love it. It is crunchier than DnD, so it's a little harder to get into, but it's very much worth it.
  3. Elden Ring: I would not have put this in my top 3 until recently. I liked the game but did not love it. Until I changed my mindset to that of an explorer instead of a "Go kill the next boss" mindset. After that, the game took on a whole new look, and I love it. Still a punishing game like all FromSoft games, but the edges are dulled when you stop and look at the absolutely beautiful scenery and attention to detail the game has.
It appears you lean fairly heavily toward the fantasy rpg end of the spectrum! I always wanted to play a TTRPG, but it can be very difficult to get a group together. I also am not a huge fan of fantasy games, although there are some I like. I thought about getting something like the Cyberpunk games to give it a try sometime, but we'll see!

Yea, as a general rule fantasy rpgs are my favorite. Though I greatly enjoy strategy games and team shooters. Like the X-COM and Mount and Blade games and TF2 and Overwatch as well.

I really like Mount and Blade as well! I like the layers of gameplay they have.
