I’m really interested in discovering games that provide an all-around fantastic experience, combining excellent combat mechanics, a compelling narrative, and an immersive world to explore. What would you recommend as the best examples of games that encapsulate these elements?

One game that stands out is **Metal Gear Solid 3**. It has an amazing story, engaging combat, and diverse areas filled with cool interactable elements. I’m really hoping that the upcoming remaster brings in a new wave of players!
I remember there being so many cutscenes. That was a bit much for me.
You can’t go wrong with the **Mass Effect** series, especially 2 and 3. Those games are a blast! Also, **Cyberpunk 2077** has come a long way since its rocky start and is really shaping up to be a solid experience now.
I’ve tried multiple times to get into Cyberpunk but just couldn’t. It looks amazing, but something feels off.
Don’t sleep on **Baldur’s Gate 3**! It’s such an immersive RPG experience, even though some might argue about its combat style.
Yeah, but I feel like the combat is too much like a glorified menu selection rather than actual combat.
**Sekiro** takes the crown for best combat in a game! The narrative is straightforward but encourages exploration, and it’s got a fantastic lore backdrop.
Completely agree! Sekiro shines in what it tries to achieve.
I’d say the **Witcher 3** is a classic, even if the combat isn’t its strong point compared to the narrative and exploration. Some say the combat can be quite clunky though.
Honestly, I found the combat pretty distracting and it really affected my overall enjoyment of the game.
Totally agree! It’s a great game despite the flaws in combat.
I really enjoyed **Ghost of Tsushima**. The combat was fun, though the world felt a bit like a standard Ubisoft game at times with repetitive side quests.
I liked the combat too, but I wasn’t a fan of the narrative or the world.
**Nier Automata** is another amazing choice. The world feels rich due to the characters and the story is captivating.
Absolutely, the writing in Nier Automata is top-notch!
Totally agree! It would be awesome if they remade the entire series, starting with MGS1.
