I'm curious what you guys have to say about this. Are there any games you consider perfect? Can a game even be perfect?

My example of a perfect game is always Portal 1. Portal 2 has more going on, but in 1 there just isn't anything to shave off. From start to end, there is nothing I'd change about the game. It's short, infinitely replayable, great pacing. I like Portal 2 a lot in concept, in concept it should be a perfect sequel, but it just doesn't keep the extreme tightness of the original game.

    HADES

    HADES YOU HAVE TO PLAY HADES.

    It's the closest a game ever got to perfection without being some barebones abstraction like Tetris or something.

      So leftist Twitch streamer said something like "it's like weebs, but for Greece" and that always stuck with me. But ya, it's been me favourite game in the last maybe ten years.

      I really enjoyed Bastion and have been meaning to get around to Transistor which has been sitting in my library for years now. Is Hades much better than Transistor or Bastion?
