Underrated - You think its good and it has received good reviews, but it didnt get the attention and sales it deserves because it wasnt released at the right time, or due to bad marketing, or perhaps its just not "mainstream", but the game itself is a solid fun experience. (in your opinion).
Im asking this because im looking to, uh, expand my game library I only have PC though, but forums are for everyone after all, so just post games on any platform.
I'll start with Metro 2033 (and Metro Last Light).
The game is generally a survival horror FPS, with hints of RPG elements involved like resource managing. It reminds me a lot of Bioshock 1+ Dishonored. It doesnt scare through jumpscares, but rather through atmosphere. Say you're traversing a dark tunnel filled with radioactive mushrooms when you hear the shrieking of mutants close by, as well as their footsteps in the pipes above you. You know they're coming (or at least you're expecting them), which puts you into an alert state for a while. And by being alert you can actually thwart the plans of the mutants who were trying to take a chunk out of your back The feeling is quite satisfying.
But anyway, I’ll leave the detailed anolysis to reviews on google. Hopefully some of you will get this unnoticed gem and enjoy it like I did Its probably my top game of all time (which isnt saying much unfortunately, i've probably only "completed" 10 games; but nevertheless it was an exhilarating experience.)
