I've been recently been thinking about Arkane Studio's Prey which is a immersive sim, with a pretty good rogue like dlc, that probably has one of the strongest hooks of any game I've played. If you liked Halflife, System Shock, or Deus Ex it's definitely worth a play.

Are there any titles that might not have been commercially successful that you feel everyone should give a shot?

Earthbound for the SNES.

It had a rough launch, rough reviews at the time, but the best RPG I've ever played, period.

Chrono Trigger, Super Mario RPG, and Earthbound are the holy trinity of SNES era RPGs

Agreed on the holy trinity. But even though you're devout to the holy trinity, sometimes there are temptations.

Illusion of Gaia is that cool friend you haven't seen in a long time who shows up, and you bond and reminisce like you haven't been separated at all. Then you discover Illusion of Gaia has friends you haven't met, and they roll together in a cool club called The Soul Blazer Trilogy.

I remember when I played IoG and Terranigma years later and was super angry that I hadn't heard of either back in the day lol
