Video game openings used to say more with less

When I think of my favorite opening scenes in video games, plenty of blockbuster moments come to mind: Uncharted 2’s unforgettable train sequence, Resident Evil 4’s tense village shootout, and, of course, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33’s tear-jerking gommage. But some of my favorite video game openings aren’t so loud. In fact, my all-time favorite — a game from 1994 — is eerily quiet.
