FF8, though being familiar with it now it seems like a small planet with a handful of distinct cities but they nailed the atmosphere of each one with the prerendere backgrounds and music

Albion is really something else

>>6267425
Oh shit Hello Fellow Albion Player, I thought I was the only one who knew this game.

>>6266216
Back to /Poland/, cunt.

>>6267997
Different anon than the one you are replying to, asking what's up, fellow Albion player?

Legend of Dragoon, whose world was based upon a really fascinating creation myth which turned out to be entirely true.

>>6268062
Is it actually based on Sumerian mythology? I never realized but it kind of makes me want to play it now.

>All these RPGs
I can't be the only one with enough imagination to get drawn into the world of a platformer or other type game. I made Pilotwings fan comics when I was 15, wrote Astyanax fanfic, daydreamed about the connection between Duck Hunt and the world of Barker Bill's Trick Shooting. Edgy philosophical villains and brooding silent heroes have their place, but all I need is a colorful well-designed characters and the barest hint of a story or world and my imagination can run for miles.

Get on my level.

>>6268035
Shut the fuck up you retarded furry

UU: Stygian Abyss
Despite being just a dungeon for the most part aesthetically, as I uncovered the history of the colony I'd vividly imagine how cozy some parts of it might have been before the collapse.

Also U7 with its npc routines, ambience and high interactivity was very compelling.

>>6266216
PST's world is more gimmicky than legit interesting.

>>6267997
Agreed. Refreshingly different.

I'd rather not. That's padded wall material, there.

>>6265301
this series of games really capture the feeling of spending summer vacation in a small rural Japanese village as a kid, it’s really cozy, the sound effects, the world, the villagers, your room, cool experience all around

>>6265301
Harvester was indeed way ahead of it's time for this matter and lots more

>>6265301
Star Control 2

>>6265301
Here are some of my favourite atmosphere-wise:
>Thief 1&2
>RE3
>Monkey Island 1&2
>Pathologic

I'm going to go with Dark Saviour, out of all the games I've ever played this is the setting and story I wanted to know more about. It's a deeply mysterious game.

shut up movie bob

>>6274012
seems like a mix between Twin Peaks and the movie Pleasantville

Star Fox. Unfortunately they just keep rebooting 64 over and over again so we will never get an in depth look inside that universe.

Dark Earth was a pretty interesting take on post-apocalypse.

>>6265301
Thief is so fucking cozy

This might be too old but Below The Root.

>>6265301
Riven is still one of the most breathtakingly gorgeous game ever made. The world design and atmosphere is incredible.

>>6265402
every time I try to play this I get stuck playing jump rope and rage quitting

>>6265301
Link's Awakening
Ultima 7, and Underworld spinoffs.
Deus Ex(it's like X-Files had a FPS)
SaGa games
HOMM3
Ogre Battle
Shadowrun (Sega does what Nintendon't version)
Langrisse 1 and 2

>>6274074
Starflight 1 and 2 , if you don't mind them being the graphically ugly grandfathers of Starcontrol.

>>6280723
And Suikoden 1,2,3.

>>6265301
Terranigma

>>6277472
hello fellow below the root player

>>6283321
Origin: We create worlds.
EA: We destroy them.

As underdeveloped as it is, Xardion does have a very unique setting going for it. NGC-1611 had quite the fascinating backstory written for its status as a living planet.

>>6265301
Legend of Mana on the PS1

Star Control

>>6283667
the 1st Starcontrol was just a 1 VS 1 space battle sim, with a few different game modes.

>>6265301
Perihelion

>>6283471

FF9

>>6280689

Septerra Core

>>6265301
NOX for pc.

>>6283654
this
Also Policenauts

>>6269104

came here to say this but didn't want to sound like a broken record, god I love this game

>>6269104
>>6289192
>record
the music is amazeballs too. though getting it to work with MT32 music w/o a real MT32 is kinda tricky.

>>6289192
It's something special, for sure.

>>6289593
Yeah, Fat Man did a tremendous job with it. I use the SoundCanvas VA plugin myself... The SC-55 soundmap will give you a fairly accurate MT32 experience (my fav is SC-88Pro though).

Tex Murphy games

>>6289593

I had it all setup years ago and then it all got fucked, now I just play with the soundblaster audio, which I love anyway bc it sounds like a Genesis game
