Dragon Age: Origin Ultimate Edition: My personal favorite game of all time. Got me into the dark fantasy genre and RPGs in general. A simple story that has so much replay value based on the various decisions you can make with an amazing cast of characters. The rest of the series has been steadily going downhill since, unfortunately (in my opinion, at least).
Celeste: Best platformer ever. I've sunk hundreds of hours into it, and ever since I discovered there was an active modding community (seriously, the modding tools are so good now) I've been going through modded community expansions.
Slay The Spire: The most fun I've had playing a card game. It's extremely challenging, but very well balanced, and there's nothing else quite like it.
Okay, since you mention Celeste, maybe you could help me out? I bought it, played it, liked it, finished it and that was about it. A short, excellent platformer I thought. Since then, I've read several times how people said Celeste had an amazing replayability and how they
so, could you tell me what to aim for after finishing the game? Why play it again?
Personally, I just really liked the platforming and movement. There aren't many platformers that come close to Celeste's polish, and I 100%-ed it (there's some secret strawberries that are pretty damn hard to get), the golden strawberry challenges where you have to not die are super challenging, and I ended-up trying to speedrun it for fun. The modding community also has some excellent maps with practice areas that teach you advanced movement mechanics (I highly recommend the "Strawberry Jam" community map pack).
