If you're into the nuts and bolts of game development at all, the commentary is fantastic.

When it first came out, for some reason, I thought all games would start following Valve's lead and introduce commentary.

And now two decades later, I don't know if any other games have.

Then again, we have other ways like game devs talking on podcasts/live stream.

There are some point&click games (like Edna & Harvey: The Breakout) that do that.
