I'd be tempted to go for some Metal Gear Solid game, probably the second one... but the thing is, they're blast to even replay, so there's little point in 'replaying for the first time' for me.

Skyrim comes to mind really quickly. I'm not sure it's the best pick, but that sense of exploration... It's just not the same after getting familiar with the game, even if it's still fun. Oblivion is another contender, and probably even better for its time, but it hasn't aged too well, unlike Skyrim.

Final Fantasy X is also another great choice, at least for me personally. It just had that special something. It's still awesome, but once you know the story, you lose much of that discovery as well.

It's less than a year since I first played and completed Horizon: Zero Dawn, and the lore for that game is pretty great in my opinion. In fact, I think it's special enough so that it would be really fun to 'play for the first time' again, even if it's not necessarily a top contender.

I also want to mention Moirai. It's... well, was, a small game you could complete in like 15 minutes. The game was nothing special, but it had that neat twist that made it worth playing, but once you knew the twist, you were done with the game, period.

I guess that's all that comes to mind now. It's possible I'm missing some great contender, but it's not like this is serious business, so whatever.
