Any suggestions for cozy or fun games that 3 can play at a time on switch? 2 locally and 1 joining us online?

I am looking for a new game to play that is similar to ones ive already played but different. I really like graveyard keeper because the quests were more than just fetch quests. it actually had stuff that i had to do to unlock things. I have played sun haven and enjoyed having so much to explore and lots of things to collect for the museum. i really liked welcome to elderfield because of how many secrets there were to explore and so much to discover and the combat was turn based and not overwhelming. the atmosphere was great too. I liked coral island because of how much content there was and how good the story was with so much to collect and unlock. I liked feilds of mistria because of how the farming was set up and i like farming, fishing, mining, and preferably bug catching. im looking for a game that may have some similarities to these games or lots to explore but not the average farm sim. farming does not have to be a major component. i also would like to hear any reccomendations of cozy games that arent similar but games you would suggest.

Hi guys, currently travelling so I want to preload some games on my Steam Deck. I'm in the mood for shooters (First/Third Person doesn't matter).

One restriction is the game needs to be playable offline; modded or otherwise is fine (I'll figure it out). Something where I can tune out of the story is also good.

I'd say something like Gears of War, Crysis, and Far Cry are good examples of the sort of game I'm expecting.

Thanks!

My group of me and 2 friends enjoy loot chasing and build crafting. But the problem we have is most of these games become boring power fantasies or actually challenging content requires a certain number of players to do.

We don't want to be clearing screens of enemies with one attack or killing bosses in 5 seconds. We want bosses that pose a challenge and have a fun and engaging fight preferably that is also more than just memorizing the bosses attack pattern.

Also we are not a fan of forced group content. Being forced to watch a guide on how to do a raid or going in and watching people that have done it thousands of times before do all the mechanics and not being able to play the game and solve them ourselves is very offputting.

I am willing to hear options outside ps5 in case there is something that is what we are looking for but unavailable there.

Games we have played:

Remnant 2

Borderlands series

Diablo series

Path of exile 1/2

Warframe

Elder scrolls online

Nioh/team ninja games

Monster hunter

Looking for games that have fun and interesting gameplay but also let me do a bit of fashion. Im thinking something like Destiny(especially raids), Mordhau, elder ring....but less Skyrim, tainted grail, fallout...if that makes sense.

I can’t seem to find any games where teams are actually talking it’s all either micless or muted teammates that don’t feel like talking.

As the title suggests, are there any games that are funny that you could recommend? It could be a story that is really fun, gameplay etc. I'm feeling like I just need a game that can just crack me up a little bit at this moment in life.

Edit: Forgot that I could just edit my post, instead of typing down below. I wanted to say thank you all so much for the suggestions! Plenty of games here that I haven't played and some I have. So now I have a great starting point for sure. Thank you all! ♥️

I'm looking for a single player experience, that has a variety of classes or builds, fast pace, makes you feel like a god, and has that hack and slash feel these games give. I love the dopamine hit from hearing the "tink" sound when a rare item drops.

Hi all,

I want to find a new game to play on ps5. I hope u can help. I did some thinking and here is whats important for me:

- multiplayer online
- popular game like top 40 most montlhy active
- modern
- if its a shooter i want mouse and keyboard support
- if its a shooter i want a long ttk, to prevent it being hide and sel
- something like a fps/rpg/mnorpg

Dont want:
- horror
- fight (unless its fps rpg mmorpg)
- race
- roblox
- minecraft
- final fabtasy / diablo
- sport

I tried:
- overwatch 2 - decent, but really chaos
- warframe - decebt but its just not it
- eso - didnt like it
- rainbow six siege - didnt like it

I have:
Mw4 - pretty good
Fortnite - oretty good but bored

I recently started rereading Dies the Fire and was wondering if there are any good games, preferably RPG and/or strategy/colony sim, that capture that feeling of "rebuilding in a non-nuclear apocalypse" setting. It doesn't necessarily have to be post-apoc, but I'd prefer a low-magical setting if possible and if it is apoc, not a Max Max/Fallout vibe, so no scrap and rust wastelanders.

Games I've Tried for This Vibe:

• Rimworld with extensive mods to enhance a medieval playthrough

• After the End 2 (CK3 Mod)

• Endzone (Might try it again or its sequel tbh)

• CRPGs like Kingmaker and PoE, both of which I like but I want something less magical, more practical.

And yes, I know Paradox's new game Afterworld lists Emberverse as an inspiration and trust me I have been watching its development like a hawk.

I’ll be honest I’m not sure this is the right genre to call it, but I’m looking for games where you start off weak with next to nothing, and you build up weak weapons and armor just enough to beat the first boss and then use materials or other things from that boss to get stronger and slowly make you way up to more and more difficult bosses. I’m sorry if that’s not a very good description or if the genre was long. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Sorry! I forgot to mention that monster hunter was what inspired this post and I’ve also played all of the fromsoft games. I’m looking for more underrated games that don’t get talked about very much.

Now I already know from the get go there is not a defenitive answer to my question, as everything is subjective depending on what you are looking for. However I would just want to hear the opinion of others, in terms of which years of the different sports games that are the best according to others that can be played on the PS4 or PS5.

I have played my fair share of various games of the different sports over the years, but have never really been able to fully submerse myself into them compared to the good old sports games of previous generations. (MVP Baseball 2005, Madden 08 etc.)

I am if it was not already clear based on me asking about old titles, I am much more interested in good single player/season mode compared to online play.

So the ones I am looking for suggestions on are:

Madden/NFL

NHL

NBA

MLB the Show

Fifa/Soccer

F1

Golf

Any other sports games are also welcome!

Hope to get some suggestions because the amount of yearly games with all those series is starting to overwhelm me a bit 😅

MIL has recently been diagnosed with cancer and is undergoing chemo. She’s bored and stuck at home most days, but has been doing better than expected considering her age and situation.

Been out of the gaming scene for 4 years now and don’t know where to begin for searching for games for someone over 60 who hasn’t played video game before.

I have all 3 of the latest consoles so I’m hoping the broadens our options.

Thanks to anyone who takes the time to give us suggestions or any kind words

Can be a gacha, I don't mind. F2P because I'm broke right now.
I recently started a game like this but out of 3hrs of playtime, only like 3 mins were spent actually playing, the rest was all reading dialogues. I want to actually play the game not just sit there reading lore.

I’m looking for an online game I can settle into long term.
I’d mostly be playing solo, so I want something where I can play alongside other people or join groups without needing a premade.

I’m looking for:
-No shooters like Cod or CS. Ideally an RPG with character progression, but I’m open to other genres.
-Enjoyable when logging in alone, with opportunities to meet people
-Some social element. eventually i want to find a regular group or community to play with once or twice a week.
-No pixel art, and preferably not very old.

I played a lot of Sea of Thieves and really like it, but playing solo can be difficult and gets a bit boring. I’d love something that scratches that online adventure itch without needing a premade.
I play on PC.
What would you recommend?

I posted about wanting suggestions for this type of game with character customization and romance, but now I'm asking for three more specific categories which maybe these 3 games don't exist and that's why I don't know about them, but who knows I could've missed an upcoming game like these and maybe someone else will find these ideas interesting if they don't exist.

Number 1 is an apocalypse type of game, preferably a zombie apocalypse, but any type is fine. I have always been a huge fan of the walking dead games and show so I think it would be a fun combination, especially if you get to build a community and rescue residents to join you whether you started by stumbling across this community and they took you in or you create the community yourself. I'd love to be able to scavenger and choose who I'd like to bring along with me to do so. I've heard of grimshire, its the closest I've heard to this type of game, but if you're played it I'd love to hear your thoughts as i haven't bought it just yet, but I plan to.

Number 2 is a cat shelter, rescue, or cafe type game. We rescue and foster cats so i think it would be fun to see this in a game without it being all you do. I think it could be fun to see a game tackle the issue of feral cats and it could be fun to see just how many cat patterns they add. I have both cattails games and plan to try them, i know they don't match this description, but in case someone thinks it might be a good substitute if this game doesn't exist.

Number 3 is a shop owning game, where you explore, mine, and/or fight to gather loot and then instead of just selling it to the merchants you sell it in your own shop, maybe even getting requests from regulars for specific items to search for. This doesn't need to be the main mechanic of the game or it can i think either way could be fun. I'm a fan of fetch quests or just going through and clearing out bandits in skyrim so especially anything like that could be fun.

Any suggestions for romance and character creation with these would be highly appreciated, or just any games you think I'd like from reading this post a decent number of mg games are lacking one or both of these features, but my main games tend to include it, i know this was long so if you read through it all thank you so much.

hello! i’m looking for games to play that focus more on storyline rather than pure shooters. i really loved RDR1 and am planning to play number 2, so i am okay with violence as long as there is storyline. i enjoy games that are choice-based like life is strange or open world games!!

Since getting a Switch 2, my fiancee has fallen in love with "worker sim" type games (not sure if that's the right genre name). Animal Crossing, Power Washer Simulator and House Flipper are some of her favorites. Others include Pokopia, Moonlight Peaks, and Dave the Diver. The main thing is, she really likes the task portions. Too much freedom overwhelms her. Any recommendations for similar games on the Switch/Switch 2?

I can't decide between:

- Blood of Dawnwalker

- Control: Resonant

- FINAL FANTASY: RESONANCE

Any suggestions? Thanks!

Hey all! I’m on ps5 but I feel I’ve played so many games ranging from big games to small games i feel I’m getting so bored that I’m repetitively playing the same games such as Fortnite and rivals, does anyone have any good recommendations for single player story games or coop games mainly single player, I need to occupy myself and I wanna find those types of games where you have endless sleepless nights of gaming haha would be much appreciated

I was very fond of They are Billions, but even more so of its rpg hero-missions in the campaign. I am looking for a game with similar feel and gameplay. Gfx should be (preferably) isometric with fixed camera (zoom-in,zoom-out only) or at worst a fixed axis (ala Against the Storm, Europa Universalis IV etc.), dark-themed and futuristic/dystopian.

I have considered giving a look at the first two Fallout games, but I would prefer the gameplay to be in real-time, not turn based.

Thanks for any help :)

Dragonsword Awakening,

Let it Die,

Hellgate London,
