I'm looking for video games that you would recommend to someone who loves good stories and characters. The more mind-blowing the better, specially if it is an indie game. (Please no games with shitty endings, I'm tired of those)
For example, I've played and highly recommend: Braid, Limbo, Assassin's Creed (1,2,Br,Rev), Bioshock: Infinite and Undertale.
What about you?
I'd recommend "Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons". For best experience try to go through it in one sitting (iirc ~4 hours), and use controller with vibration. And try to avoid spoilers on this one.
"Antichamber", "Fract OSC" for puzzle games. Not much for meaningful stories in both, but I'd still recommend them. First is designed to confuse experienced players by playing with expectations. In Second you "fix" music themes as you go through puzzles - kinda makes you smile each time you solve a complex one.
You might also like "Ori and the Blind Forest".
"Infinite" doen't mean "big" - it can be small and have no end.
Final Fantasy 10 is awesome. Final Fantasy 13 is great too, except for the 3rd part.
But being honest. I would really suggest you Final Fantasy 10. It has a great story.
The makers of Limbo are releasing a game in 2 days called Inside which is very good and similar to Limbo. Play that.
Phoenix Shaman deck + guide:
Not sure if you have a PS4 or PS3 but the story and characters for The Last of Us is amazing and will blow your frickin mind!
spec ops: the line, awesome twist to a generic looking 3ps
Last of Us
Divinity: original sin, enhanced edition. You can even play with a friend. Takes close to 100 hours to play, absolutely fantastic story and an extremely rich game. Turn-based rpg with crafting and very unique battle system, basically DnD as a video game.
SOMA, Talos Principle
Legacy of Kain series and Devil May Cry.
Mostly Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1, 2 and Defiance
See you on the other side...
Virtue's Last Reward. I found it mindblowing. It is 2/3 visual novel and 1/3 puzzle game. The story is basically Saw in space with parallel timelines and some very surreal plot twists.
It is currently only on 3DS and PS Vita but a PC port is in the works. Its sequel, Zero Time Dilemma, is on Steam, but I'd play VLR first to get maximum enjoyment out of it.
The original Bioshock, if you haven't played it yet. Also, I would recommend Bastion and Transistor - beautiful graphics, great stories, and amazing soundtracks.
Please check out my submission for this week's Card Design Competition here, and vote for it if you like it! Thanks!

PS3/4: The Last Of Us... and HEAVY RAIN!!
In another words: Bioshock 1 and Infinite veryyy mindblowing, Portal 1 and 2, Metro 2033 Redux, Mass effect Trilogy (My number One trilogy), Castlevania Lords of Shadow... (second one),
Danganronpa 1 and 2
Legacy of Kain series by far, the lead there went on to crate the Last of Us and the Uncharted series.
Child of Light is a good tip if you haven't tried it, Ubisoft can distribute good games.
If you're into obscure retro-gaming, Dreamweb has perhaps one of the most sinister stories ever told in a videogame coupled with a fantastic 8-bit soundtrack. With ancient obscure graphics and weird game mechanics, it is not for everyone however. Hotline Miami borrows heavily from it. The text version is better than the voiced version.
I know OP mentioned this already, but I just finished Bioshock Infinite and loved it. Bioshock 1 also has great story. The Talos Principle has a similar feel of slowly discovering the story, and the gameplay is great, but the story reveal isn't as good as the bioshocks.
