@theoracleofgame: Can someone link me to a video timestamp for when he says that line, please?

This was awesome. Another game in a similar vein about family, memories, and surrealism in firstperson with a female protagonist that came out recently was Blackwood Crossing. That gets really emotional. Highly recommended.

My big thing is level design. I've been playing a shitload of Doom WADs, and it's really been reminding me how much I miss sprawling, open level design that encourages exploration. I don't miss keyhunts or spending an hour trying to find the one tiny corridor I missed to finish the level, but I prefer it to ultra-guided cinematic experiences that might as well be a lightgun game all the time. I mean, I like those as well, but not in nearly every shooter that comes out.
Even games that tout old-school level design as a bullet point miss the mark. Adding the occasional forked path is not the same thing.
Wolfenstein The New Order was the most recent game that reminded me of more open level design.
