If it’s music with game: undertale times a billion
Chrono Trigger, without question.
Konstantine by Something Corporate, maybe.
Playing the Video game: Lunar: Eternal Blue for the first time again would be awesome.
Talos Principle, without a doubt. That game feels like it was made for me, I love puzzles, computers and philosophy and the first time was such a blast.
Would love to experience Hollow Knight again
For a video game, either Disco Elysium or Return of the Obra Dinn. Unforgettable first experiences that redefined what games are capable of in my mind.
Fantastic choices. Outer Wilds for me.
Oh geez that’s tricky… My first instinct is to say Towa Tei’s Sunny, the entire album. But the thing is, half of what I love about it is the nostalgia about how much I loved it the first time, and where I was when I listened to it. So maybe it’d be better to pick something you might’ve liked better under other circumstances? In that case… Hmmm… I’d say the audio drama Spines.
That was a really fun book to listen to. He narrates the second one as well, but it didn’t capture lightning in a bottle the same way.
Damn, out of 4,000 years of literature.
Because bad pun memes are the bee’s knees.
This post reminds me of a friend of mine who likes a song so much, he will only listen to it twice a year, once on New Year’s and once on his birthday. He says each time is like the first time because “the pathways stay fresh”. He’s been consistent for at least 7 years.
If you’re curious: Toccata - OVERWERK
Very understandable that song is awesome
I basically listened to it on loop for a week and ruined the effect
Just listened to it. Yeah I get it
Sounds like songs from the game “The Messenger”.
Great game and great music.
Ocarina of Time
Change ‘listen to’ to ‘watch’ and I’ll rewatch Eternal Sunshine for the first time.
I watched that movie knowing absolutely nothing about it going in other than the two leads, and it blew my mind. from that point on i swore off watching trailers and try to know as little as possible about every movie i watch.
Going in completely dark like that can be so damn good. That was how I watched From Dusk till Dawn for the first time. Also Barbarian another great one to go in totally blind.
There are videos of people reacting to hearing Megadeth’s Holy Wars… the Punishment Due for the first time. I enjoy the song, but I first heard it when I was probably like 10 and don’t really remember the first time. Would be fun to hear it with a fresh pair of ears.

Half-Life 2
I’m too young to have played the original as a kid, but I have fond memories of coming home from school to play HL2 on my shitty laptop.
