I loved Blue Prince. It's still putting up a good fight for my personal GOTY despite having just finished and loved Clair Obscur.
Play it, take notes, enjoy it. Games like it don't come along often.

Okay I need to stop commenting before coffee.
~~No PC eh?~~
EDIT: I'm blind
Yes, she always goes through the portal. It's what happens after that varies. She either becomes a Witcher (looks like that will be the canon ending considering Witcher 4), becomes an empress or she doesn't come back. In the latter ending it's implied (but left up for debate) that she dies. It's also very heavily implied that Geralt dies in that one.
Ciri enters the portal in all endings.
The most busted late game strat I found on Lune was using Braselim to farm a level 3 Gradient attack every turn (Storm Caller is key for this).
Elemental Genesis actually fell out of favour for me once I discovered Hell does better AoE damage and Lightning Dance does better single target.
Typhoon is also great if you're playing full strength teams and not low HP/Inverted. You can load it up with both Energising Heal and all the buffs, as well as Energising Rush/Shell/Powerful as needed and it will have your team triple buffed and at max AP every turn.
The game is not for everyone. That's okay. Rothko paintings are worth tens of millions of dollars and I completely do not get them at all.
I will give you that there are two soft locks early on that are a little too easy to stumble into and it is for sure the game's biggest flaw.
Oooooh I like that question. I feel like it would have to be some kind of Call of Duty, right? Some absolutely mediocre slop that still has enough mechanical satisfaction and mind-numbing explosion-and-cliché-filled story to keep you somewhat entertained, yet still remaining completely forgettable.
RDR2 is probably the best-feeling in terms of NPC behaviour in the open world.
The final version of the script was in french. I can try to find the interview if you want. Basically, the lead writer of the narrative has English as her first language, but the co-writer of the script is french (as is the studio at large). The script went back and forth between English and French multiple times during development, but the final script ended up being in French.
Performance capture was done by the french actors, but speaking English (for motion/facial capture), so technically both languages are dubs, and neither has perfect lip synch.
Both casts are absolutely great. I prefer some voices in English and some in French. However, there are absolutely some parts of the script where it's obvious it was written in French, with wordplay or double meanings that don't translate to English.
Did that help?
Hard to argue with most of those. I'd put Ocarina of Time over BotW, but that's splitting hairs. Diablo 2 needs LoD included in my opinion.
God of War is an embarrassing blind spot in my gaming history. Is it actually that good?
I haven't played BNW yet (though I really should), but I'd be hesitant to suggest something that makes so many fundamental changes for someone's first playthrough. The one I tend to recommend is Woolsey Uncensored
