    The original Dead Space felt really lonely. Isaac didn't speak back then and you have crew talking in your ear every once in a while until they get killed too. Just wandering around on the spaceship with no one else around you except mutated people, it feels very lonely.

    All the games that give you an animal companion don't feel lonely to me at all. I personally have a career that keeps me pretty isolated from other people for most of the time, but I *always* have at least one animal that I'm working and cooperating with (tracking/detection dogs, herding dogs, my horse, etc), so that feels familiar to me.
    You don't need spoken dialogue to feel like you have good company, especially if it's a friend or cooperative partner that sticks with you for your whole journey (like in Shadow of the Colossus and The Last Guardian). And you're definitely not the only living thing in an empty landscape when there's another living, breathing creature right next to you the whole time, sharing the same experience.

    What is amazing about project Zomboid is that it all started on their own website, they were selling this very basic version for something like 10 USD. They then gave Steam Keys for free to original owners when it released there. It's amazing the difference between this original version and now, the one I first played you only had your home, maybe a couple neighbors, and that's it, you had to survive the Zombies infinite onslaught with very limited resources.

    Praey For the Gods is very Shadow of the Collossus-inspired and you can see that in its similar level of isolation.
    The game has you stranded on a frozen island in a dying world, and that isolation is only reinforced as you find the remains of previous inhabitants and diaries of their experiences, plus the occasional ruins covered in ominous hieroglyphs hinting at a previous disaster. Even the “gods” you have to fight look like half-decayed corpses, which only further gives the sense of you being the only living person.

    Ico could feel pretty lonely, even when you had the princess, Yorda, at your side for much of the game's events. This was largely due in part to the language barrier preventing the pair from fully understanding one another. And the castle setting was incredible, being trapped within a labyrinthine structure that's also located atop multiple rocky structures, leaving you with no choice but to navigate the castle for a safe means of escape.

    Immediately news subnautica should be on this list! Was skipping through to find it/or comment how it should be on this list. What makes the game even more eerie, is that you continuously find empty life pots of your fellow ventures. Reminding you that you are indeed alone. Great game!

    Montana used to be like Jake mentioned in The Long Dark where you could feel like the only person for miles in the woods, then out of state people ruined it. Now you can be in the most isolated place possible and it can confused for a sidewalk in LA.

    I was pretty surprised how lonely I felt when I first played LoZ: Twlight Princess, especially in the beginning. Like...when most of the world is covered in Twilight and you have to be a wolf, you cant talk to anyone. Almost feels like youre the ghost in those parts. It doesnt stay lonely, obviously but there were parts thay actually felt kinda depressingly lonely for a Zelda game...

    If we’re talking about old games, the loneliest I have played were; Myst and Morpheus. Both point n click puzzle games and both very lonely.

    Played Metroid Prime for the first time ever thanks to the Remastered version, and was so hooked. It’s like they perfected the Metroidvania formula while bringing it to 3 dimensions instead of keeping it constrained in the traditional 2D space of metroidvanias (not that there’s anything wrong with 2D games, they can still be amazing). What I loved the most is how superbly done all the environmental storytelling and lore drops are done. Really felt like a lived-in world.

    Not sure if anyones put this out there, but surprised Adrift wasn't posted. Wake up in a destroyed space station, frantically trying to keep your O2 full while finding out what happened, why the space station you and your crew were working on, exploded all while gently floating through corridors and doing light puzzles to proceed.

    What remains of Edith Finch was really isolating. Always thought something was going to happen. I’d also add original No Man Sky before updates. I never felt that sense of isolation before. The galaxy was vast and you never saw a soul. Not even the aliens right away. Leaving my home planet for the first time was a type of anxiety I’d never felt.

    Lastly, Obduction is a follow up from the makers of Myst. A bit cooler as you are transported to another world that has puzzles of other worlds glued together to create a disjoint town. You have to find your way out of this place and solve what happened to all of the people who left this "village".

    There is a game called the Solus Project on Steam. It has an amazing, lonely feel to it. It's just you on an alien planet. The graphics are fantastic, and the music just adds to the isolation vibe. It's one of my favorite games.

    An obvious one for if you do a part 2: Pacific Drive. You speak to some people over the radio but you never see another living soul. So bleak and unforgiving. Great game.
