Games That Hit Harder Once You Become a Parent

For a long time, movies and television were the main sources for stories about becoming a parent. However, video games have been exploring this theme more and more over the last fifteen years. Even looking back at games I played before becoming a parent, they feel different now. Titles like Death Stranding, God of War, and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 are especially impactful after having children, and it’s telling that they already resonated with many people. This really highlights how powerfully games can capture the emotional experience of parenthood.
