Death Stranding (2019)
Hideo Kojima ranges from nuclear physics to paleontology
The lore blends quantum physics, STEM disciplines and even palaeontology, while the human side comes through the relationships between the characters, held together by the "Likes" mechanic, and through Sam Porter Bridges' phobias and PTSD, with sequences worthy of a horror film. The game flows well and is full of mysteries, the pointless side deliveries are best ignored, and the flawless plot requires some theoretical and scientific grounding to be fully understood.
Cyberpunk 2077 (2020)
It successfully combines the gangster genre with RPG elements
After an almost unplayable launch, partly the fault of the pre-order policy, it has become a first-rate game thanks to its patches. The map offers missions that move the plot forward without scattering it, the side quests are more than errands, and weapons, upgrades and mods make every playthrough unique. On top of that comes a quality Italian dub, an increasingly rare thing. It is one of the few titles I have completed 100% since The Witcher 3's DLCs: an absolute must-play.
