You end up stranded on a foreign planet. You need to build a rocket so you can go home, but unfortunately you have to build a whole manufacturing facility to do that. As if this wasn't hard enough, the inhabitants of the planet are environmentalist assholes and will do anything in their power to stop you.
A guy just wants to leave his home country and see the world, but his dad won't let him. Even when he gets past his dad, he still can't quite make it. It's in the blood.
Upon being released from prison, you thrust yourself directly into the local religions and governments until everyone can agree that you're the rebirth of divinity, at which point you doom the game world to death by giant fucking meteor by poking a large heart with really specific silverware.
Could be any Elder Scrolls game, tbh.
Nah, too specific. It's Morrowind.
I Nerevar would have guessed.
Morrowind
Florida men crashland on planet, commit war crimes and sell drugs.
Kid gets sick of being told to clean his room and runs away from home, but it's more difficult than he anticipates. In desperation, he reaches out to his estranged relatives for help, which just makes his dad even more mad.

Elden Ring was the correct answer, but I don't disagree. I just played BOTW and am now playing TOTK. Up until you get a few heart container upgrades it might as well be Legend of Zelda: Darkness of the Souls.
Once you get to the second row of hearts, it's a much easier game though.

You're an alien frog archaeologist that launches themself into space in a rocket jerry-rigged out of wood and ancient alien goat-person tech. After dying repeatedly in several excruciating and brutal ways you learn to embrace death.
You take a break from roasting marshmallows over a camp fire to go solve the deepest mysteries of the universe.

You wake up in a quarrantine zone. Despite having no medical qualifications, you need to cure a global pandemic before you are permitted to leave.
If you manage to succeed, your reward is your life saved and then more debt than you can hope to repay in a thousand lifetimes when you leave quarrantine.
You pull animal-like creatures from their natural habitats to make them fight each other in a way that they somehow consent, in a franchise that systematically weeds out the good ideas from each game while retaining the bad ones.
Person and person and person don't like other person. The person and person and person work Make other person no have place. Make big word. Person big word person big word other person big word other person.

You're a disenfranchised spacefaring race perpetually performing an, ultimately, menial task in an extremely hostile and dangerous environment. You only exist to create wealth for the company, at the expense of your health and wellbeing. Personal relationships are fleeting as you only interact with strangers you are randomly teamed up with to complete a job at which the company has neither adequately trained or equipped you to do well. Climbing the social ladder in your community is a function of finding ways to more efficiently extract resources from a ripe planet unable to sufficiently defend itself from your advanced technology.
I don't think I followed your prompt, but I got carried a way.

You attack a tree, then make tools to attack things even better. You need to now attack dirt and then stone to make better tools. After that, you can attack more stone in hopes of finding valuables. When you find blue thing, you can attack solid cola, and make a rectangle, then curse it by lighting it on fire. Now you agree in hell. You should be proud of yourself. Now you can attack fires with your tools, or if you collected snowballs before, you can also torture them. When they die, you pull out their penis, break them to make fire-thing. Then kill living magmas, and then extract their magma that was inside them, and make it into magma balls. After that, you can kill tall black people, and collect their balls. Then you can merge the fiery-things, the magma balls, and the black people's balls to make some eyeballs. You can then throw the eyeballs (one at a time), and follow them until they fall down where you stand. Then you can start attacking dirt and stone again, until you get into an underground house. Find a room that has a rectangle made from the eyeball's material, go there, and put the remaining eyeballs there, but look out for gray bugs! Now you get to the void on a floating solic cola, then use the stone you attacked to go to another floating thing that is made of solid pee. You should see big dragon. If you made bows, you can start shooting, and when big dragon is down, you can also attack it with a sword. But beware! Big dragon can also fuck you over, and shoot you out of the void into space. If you managed to destroy big dragon, at the center of the pee island, you should see cola spawn inside solid cola. Just jump in there, and you beat the game!
There is a box. It's a very old box. It might have a thing in it. Everyone tells you to not open it. The game tells you to not open it. You probably opened it on your first playthrough.

A group comprised of individual avant-garde artists who are also amateur athletes each travel around a city collecting art supplies while listening to broadcasts so they can create several colourful palimpsests without getting beaten or shot.
They said described as badly as possible, not the most known phrase for an extremely popular game
Your mom dies, your brother runs away so now your dad spends all his time looking for him, and your village gets overtaken by fascists, oh and you're like 12. Somehow it's your job to save the world though.
A group of teenagers who hate loud music die. Then they eat a bunch of food and meet/become god. Also maybe they become better people or something? IDK, I'm still trying to influence fashion to min/max my stats.
Virgin man dismantles mafia fighting over a tiny ass piece of land. He beats up everyone (sometimes with a rpg) without killing anyone ever while doing random bullshit like racing toy cars on the side and helping people around the city.

You're an outlaw who steals the pets of other people and must recruit them to stop a corrupt mayor and his army of evil Power Rangers from setting up animal abuse factories.
Fight for scraps and die. Die 5 more times from getting beat with a rock. Fight for more scraps and get small base. Lose all scrap in base from asshole clan. Beat head against wall in frustration. Oh and die some more and do it all again tomorrow.
You kinda play with reincarnations of Adam and Eve but original Eve was kind of Adam's mom. Current Adam has a lot of trauma he tries to shut away with different personalities but then the ghost of his previous incarnation takes over his father's body to try to push the traumatized personality out. Eventually you discover a kid on a lab who comes to life in your presence and she tells you it was an even older incarnation of Adam who created her artificially based on Eve because nobody could have natural kids anymore at that time but that didn't really wipe humans out either.
And all through the game some sort of AI with the personality of some very old folks had been spying on you through your save files.
In the end current Adam and Eve fall out of the sky naked but inside a giant robot, with all your friends watching you from a distance because they can't fly since your actions made every other giant robot stop working, except for yours.
Participate in dream therapy and fall asleep and follow a doctor's voice as you have your mind broken over and over by optical illusions until you wake up and then cry irl at the ending speech.

Five soldiers of specialized anti terrorism forces battle against some other five soldiers of those same forces, to defuse a bomb. But for some reason all of these operators are from the same countries and task forces and should actually work together. Also the servers of this game are shit.

You command one or several cities and gangs of creatures (some of them beasts, some presumably sentient), lead by a person who's armor and sword somehow makes the other creatures in his group stronger. These gangs capture other cities and fight other gangs, but they're very civil - they let each take their turn at it.
You know all those books and literary analysis you had to do in Englidh class that you hated? Yeah what if we made a game about those guys? Oh and don't worry, we got guys from all over the globe, so we're going to make you relive that pain regardless if you're from Spain or Korea. Oh you liked that part of class? Good news! We made Rodion Raskinolov an anime waifu!

You kinda play with reincarnations of Adam and Eve but original Eve was kind of Adam's mom. Current Adam has a lot of trauma he tries to shut away with different personalities but then the ghost of his previous incarnation takes over his father's body to try to push the traumatized personality out. Eventually you discover a kid on a lab who comes to life in your presence and she tells you it was an even older incarnation of Adam who created her artificially based on Eve because nobody could have natural kids anymore at that time but that didn't really wipe humans out either. And all through the game some sort of AI with the personality of some very old folks had been spying on you through your save files. In the end current Adam and Eve fall out of the sky naked but inside a giant robot, with all your friends watching you from a distance because they can't fly since your actions made every other giant robot stop working, except for yours.
