if you could forget everything about one game and play at again, what game would it be? - its like losing your virginity, you never get it back.

Whenever this question comes up I'm always worried that I wouldn't "get" the games a second time through. I'd never have all the time to think about the implications of the plot and all the small details or discuss them online.

Probably Fallout 2. By the time I played it I knew way too much about the game and all of the quests and where to thieve all the great loot, and it's difficult to pretend you don't to try to do a more procedural playthrough.
 
Breath of the Wild was super fun the first time I played it, with diminishing returns with each attempt at a subsequent play through. It sucks, since just about every other Zelda holds up when replayed.

I’m assuming this would be me, today playing the game; if I could recapture the magic of playing Pokémon Silver for the first time, though.

Playing with the Restoration Project means that you have to get to San Francisco before you can find Navarro, which makes that less of a problem as you're going to have to savescum massively to make it to both locations with no equipment at level 1/2.
 
I think a pretty common take would be dark souls. It has so much content and optional things that are amazing to stumble upon the first time. I'd also love to play thief again without knowing the patrol routes and layouts. I remember that game terrifying me as a kid but I can't get that first playthrough feel back.

FF15. Or maybe not. Either way, the only game that made me legitimately cry at the end.

Now I cry cus I realize how much of it is copy-paste assets bought from online stores. Like that one dragon boss.

Probably Breath of the Wild, maybe Morrowind, but some of the fun of that one comes from learning the secrets and knowing them, and getting immersed in the lore and shit.

I remember being lost in Balmora when I was like 10, and not being able to find the first quest dungeon after finding Caius Cosades, looking on that little map that came with the game and trying to find it with that.
