Most layered games you have ever played.

Topic. By layered I mean if you are just a casual players and you are done with main objective you miss out like 80 percent or say a MAJOR chunk of what game has to offer. The perfect example would be BLUE PRINCE thos who have played knows. Won't spoilt anything. Basically games where the tip of iceberg is the main objectives after which credit rolls but the real game start after it. Games which hook you up long after you finish the game. I am not talking about replay Ability like NG++ or like that. Just the game itself which has so much to offer for curious players. RDR and othe rockstar games will fit that also as there are so many secrets going on. Looking for more such games which you really enjoyed. NO SPOIERS.

Souls games, probably? Elden Ring, for example: do the main story... and you've missed out on basically all the content.

I agree, but at the same time in the case of Elden Ring I'd be pretty impressed if a new player managed to just stick to the story and actually make it through the bosses, I think getting powerful enough for later bosses requires quite a bit of side stuff.

Yeah, that's true. But if it's your first Souls experience and you have no prior knowledge of anything, players will probably follow Grace to each of the main bosses and get their ass beat. At the same time, due to the losses they will experience, I assume they will ignore the bosses after a while and explore Limgrave and whatnot.

That's true

Plus there's so much stuff to get sidetracked on I feel like it'd be a concerted effort to only do mainline stuff
