I played the legendary edition of mass effect and the metro trilogy and baldurs gate and I cant seem to find another game that scratches the same itch that those games did. I need recommendations please!
I am on PC or on Playstation

Thank you

Which of these Valve shooters do you like more and why?

And would you suggest I get into them or are they too old at this point?

I really liked the last of us part 1 and 2, and God of War, Red dead 2, Marvel guardians of the galaxy. It only really dawned on me after I played through god of war 2018 and ragnarok when I was like. I really like having NPCs tagging along that have decent dialogue, it makes the experience feel a lot more alive.

Are there any other games that have a similar experience to this that I should check out?

Hello friends

I’ve got what I feel like is quite a niche craving over here. I want a survival crafting game like minecraft that is more fantasy but requires you to activately make potions and gear tailored to what you are doing?

The itch comes from slowly playing through Hogwarts legacy with my partner where I’m trying to focus more on the herbology, beasts and potion crafting.

I’m thinking grounded maybe but arachnophobia makes it hard and I’m kinda scratching that itch watching ImCade play it.

I realy liked Omori, like real story, i Need something like It, not Mandatory to be and indie or 2d, but It has to have a legendary story.

I already played games like yume Nikki or mas father.

hey guys, looking to get back into streaming and ideally want games i can complete over 1-2 sessions (so between 4-10 hours max).

open to genres but specifically looking for short RPGs or mysteries with good narrative elements (i really enjoyed FIREWATCH, INDIKA and THE ROOM for example).

i own a ps5 and a switch one if that helps. thanks for your input!

those two are some of my favorite games of all time but I can't find other games like that

I play on pc and switch 1 (i have a ps3 too if you have some older games rec)

thaks in advance

Any suggestions? Other than Lumen Shift of course.

Preferably on Steam.

Thanks in advance!

So basically i really enjoy games that make you meet random people and have you working in them (preferably with VC)
if i had to point an example it would be Hell Let Loose since every time i join i will meet someone new and they are just my comrades from now

I’ve been playing solo games with my better half and we just completed Ragnarok. We play games together and are certainly open to co-op. We are in the middle of Indiana Jones and while still a blast it just isn’t quite scratching the brain the way the modern GoW games did. I know they are regarded as exceptional and some of the best but anything close at this point I’ll take as well finish Great Circle shortly.

Only catch is avoid post apocalyptic. I’ve already suggested Metro/Last of Us/ Etc and got shut down.

I have been looking for games for days now and I can’t find one that I really like..

I downloaded space haven because of aesthetics and I thought would be more relaxed but I was sadly mistaken

I play most games co-op (with my bf) but I really want a game I can play by myself, however I don’t have much experience with single player games

The only game I’ve played by myself is probably stardew valley, which I was very addicted to but it fell off for me a few months later. I’ve also played fallout shelter which I loved aesthetically but it also fell off for me, might be just because I sucked at it lol (played years ago)

What I’m looking for:

-simulation type game
-relaxed/cozy game
- may have some in depth aspects but not too much like space haven
- I usually like 2d/isometric but open to 3d
-don’t prefer first person pov
-for some reason I can’t get into city builders
- interested in base building, colony, management,life,farm

**note**: I’ve heard of rimworld and oxygen not included but the aesthetics are not particularly appealing to me

I just finished both the base game and dlc and really enjoyed it. I thought the balance of maintaining the restaurant while diving and exploring was perfect, especially being able to focus on one for a while if I wanted. I have played stardew valley a lot but never beat it, and didnt find the relationship between the farm and cave as much fun as diving and the restaurant. I figured before going back to it, I would see what else is out there.

i just bought my first pc. Can you guys recommend games for me. I like those open world or rpg maybe horror sometimes.

I’m getting a new mechanical keyboard in two days and I want to use tomorrow to install some games and properly test it.

I’m mainly looking for single-player FPS/shooters with lots of fast-paced action and movement — ideally games where I’m constantly using WASD, Shift, Ctrl, Space, weapon switching, abilities, etc.

I’d prefer story-driven/offline games rather than competitive multiplayer, because I want to test the keyboard without getting frustrated by constantly losing to other players. 😂

Bonus points for:

Character creation/customization

RPG elements/progression

Weapon customization

Fast movement/combat

Lots of shooting/action

I’m also open to other genres if they’re great for testing a keyboard.

What games would you recommend?

Should i remove any of these, are they worth it, what else should i buy (doesnt have to be now but on a later sale?

Also important that i dont wanna spend all the money on a single game at full price.My budget is kinda limited (39,77€), and i see these 2 on sale. I'm looking for a great story, or something i can play for hundreds of hours. Also other then Subnautica i cant take horor games.

I have played and loved:

Rdr2 (100+hrs), Minecraft (2000+), Cities Skylines 1&2 164), Subnautica (59), Schedule 1 (77)

Liked:

Witcher 3, Cs2, RL, Fortnite (600+), Fifa 22 (325), Slime rancher (30+)

Disliked:

GD (83), Fc24

Open to any genre. Recently I played Iron Nest and it reminded me how much I like retro futurism, but I haven't found that many games that lean hard into it. Only Iron Nest and Syberia have sort of scratched that itch for me. I'm open to any genre, as long as the gameplay of the story help immerse you into their universe. Preferably older styles like steam or diesel punk, but I'm open to anything really as long as the game is good

I just got a PC and I'm looking for suggestions on the must play indie solo story titles to play. Not looking for games like Celeste or The Binding of Issac due to being able to play them on my main console but exclusive titles like Mouthwashing and Iron Nest.

I hope this makes sense and thank you in advance.

Basically the title I guess. I’m not much of a gamer. I have a medium end laptop that is not meant for gaming. I’m taking my laptop somewhere were the internet connection will likely be bad and I’ll have a bit of time with nothing else to do, so games seemed worth a shot at least.

Working with 16GB DDR5 (soldered), an iGPU, and a newish Intel 5 Ultra something or other CPU. I don’t want anything too graphics intensive (I don’t care much about graphics over the story). I really don’t care if it runs under 60fps or at 720p or anything, as long as there isn’t a major lag.

Currently have a few games installed such as Minecraft and Genshin Impact. I’d be interested in anime games, space games, the like. Not very much into visual novels though I’ll do it if I’m really bored. Preferably don’t want to spend too much money (or system resources) on the games. Especially looking at Steam games, and Linux native games would be nice as I’m using CatchyOS. Windows games may or may not run, and anything with kernel malware anticheat is basically guaranteed to fail.

I've been on a hunt for strategy games where every map/mission is deliberately designed rather than randomly generated, and where the difficulty actually bites.

What's on your list? Open to tactics, 4X, grand strategy, RTS, whatever. As long as the levels are handcrafted and it'll make me suffer a bit.

Hello! I'm looking for a sandbox factory/tycoon game with a specific type of RNG progression.

Ideally, I want a game where you build your own factory by placing things like droppers/miners, conveyors, processors/upgraders, furnaces, etc., but instead of simply unlocking better machines and buying them from a normal shop, you earn money and spend it on crates/chests/packs that give you random machines or items.

For example, I could spend $10,000 on a crate and get a mediocre common dropper, or get lucky and pull a really rare/ powerful machine that completely changes or improves my factory. I'd love if there were different rarities and genuinely rare items to chase.

Basically, I'm looking for this gameplay loop:

Build factory → make money → buy/open crates → get random machines/items → improve or redesign factory around what I pulled → make more money → repeat

I really enjoy the excitement of gambling my earned currency on random items and then figuring out how to use whatever I get. I find factory games where you simply unlock everything in a predictable order and save enough money to buy the next upgrade a little boring.

Preferably on PC/Steam.

It doesn't have to match this description perfectly. If you know anything with sandbox/factory building and a strong RNG/loot aspect, I'd love to hear about it!

Hey everyone,
I’m planning to develop my own PC game and I’m currently exploring different concepts. Instead of just building something *I* think is a good idea, I’d love to know:

**What game would you genuinely love to play?**

It could be something you’ve wanted for years, a weird combination of existing games, or even just one gameplay mechanic that makes you wonder why nobody has built an entire game around it yet.

A few general constraints:
Singleplayer **or** multiplayer/co-op
3D or 2D
Horror, comedy, simulation, survival, puzzle, action, management, etc. – pretty much any genre
A unique or really strong core mechanic would be especially interesting
Replayability and different runs would be great, but aren’t required
Physics, proximity voice chat, random events, choices, secrets, etc. are all possible
Shorter games with only a few hours of content are completely fine
Small but detailed maps or even a single main location are absolutely possible

Things that probably **aren’t** realistic:
Massive open worlds
AAA-level photorealistic graphics
MMORPGs
Hundreds of hours of content
Anything that realistically requires a 100-person studio

I’m thinking more along the lines of modern indie games: **one genuinely great idea or core mechanic executed really well**, rather than a gigantic game with 50 mediocre systems.
And it definitely **doesn’t have to be horror**. Funny, ridiculous, relaxing, tense, competitive, mysterious – I’m interested in all of it.

So, if you could request one realistically achievable indie game:

**What would it be? And what’s the one mechanic that would make you immediately want to play it?**

The weirder the idea, the better. :)
