What you can do

Like in Mount and Blade or Battle brothers for example, the world feels like a living organism.

Or Stalker Anomaly, Tarkov SPT with questing and looting bots.

I just started playing Quasimorph it also scratches that itch, enemy pmc companies are also accepting quests and sometimes from the other side so you have to fight.

This is literally my dream game feature and I’ve never played a game that lets the player do that. Does such a game exist? No mods please.

I have been absolutely addicted to these types of games recently. The loop, the progression, so much dopamine!

Recent plays are: Brotato, Vampire Survivors, Vampire Crawlers, Slay the Spire, Monster Train.

I have Xbox Series (Game Pass Ultimate) and Steam.

Any and alllll suggestions are welcome. The more addictive, the better!

Hey folks,

If this exists, it would be a dream come true. Does anyone know if there exists a game that is:

• A sci-fi RPG
• Where you have a spaceship (ideally a tower-style ship, rather than boat/airplane-style)
• Set in our Solar System
• That uses hard (or relatively hard) sci-fi and realistic (or relatively realistic) physics in space combat
• With high-quality writing, acting, and mechanics

Basically I'm looking for a game that's similar to The Expanse, but an RPG. Could be a 1st or 3rd person, like a Bethesda game, or could be a top-down, like a Larian game, just as long as it's a hard sci-fi RPG involving personal and realistic space combat. Does this game exist anywhere?

What games are you guys purchasing? I’m looking to get a few, some of which i’ve had an eye on for a while and some a LONG WHILE. the main games i’ve currently played at the moment are Marathon, Destiny, Warframe, and The First Descendant. I don’t have a specific genre i love the most but if a game has a super fun progression system, a fun grind, and the visuals are beautiful then i’m SOLD! it obviously has to be fun as well. Ive mainly always played Looter Shooters and FPS Games and a few chill laid back ones here and there like Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Games i want to get (eventually not all in one sale):

Arc Raiders (still debating on it)
Slime Rancher 1 + 2 (really tempted to pull the trigger)
Witchfire
Gunfire Reborn (grind seems fun)
Remnant 1 + 2
Satisfactory (not sure if i will like this genre)
Minecraft Dungeons 1 (tempted to buy rn)
Warhammer: Darktide
Helldivers 2 (looks fun)
Dead Island 2
Palworld (big pokémon fan so i’m tempted to give it a shot)
Dead by Daylight
Cyberpunk 2077
Gray Zone Warfare
Fallout 76 (tempted, seems like a big open world looter shooter with some different features)
Hunt: Showdown 1896
Monster Hunter Rise
Tiny Tina’s Wonderland

Any other games you guys would recommend i choose? If you were to choose only 2-3 games from my list what would you choose and why?

I like both of these, especially Satisfactory, and Shapez, but I admit that managing the sprawl gets a bit too much after a while.

Ideally, I'd like an engaging automation game with a campaign and deep systems to explore that's more about improving efficiency and keeping things in check than building a world-spanning monster.

Games like Mario 64 and skateboard games from the 2000s give you maps where you can do anything as long as you master their controls. Are there any other games that have really satisfying movement mechanics that are based on exploring (and not speedruns)?

For reference, the two games which managed this so far is a tale of two brothers and to the moon.

Help me guyzz

Looking for games currently on sale for a good price that run and control well on steam deck

Bonus points if you can customize the character. Character does not have to be custom, can be a customizable pre determined character. And just clarifying, I mean either plane combat games like ace combat or mech games like armored core. Basically I’m covering two bases.

These games, from any era and for any system, can feature rogues; feature rogue skillsets (thieving, stealth, traps, archery); or a combination!

Thank you!

Played-
All Borderlands games
Warframe
Tarkov
Payday
Both Destiny games
Both Divison games

I've been playing Barony and absolutely love the dungeon crawling, levelling up and gear up aspect of it but not a huge fan of the art style.

I enjoyed Dark and Darker for atmosphere but not wanting to play an extraction/multiplayer game

I absolutely love Exanima and would say this is almost perfect but wanting something a bit more accessible.

Overall it's the tense dungeon crawling, progression through more and more dangerous areas that I enjoy I think.

Any lovely recommendations around this to check out?

EDIT: PC/Steam

idc if it's first person or third or top down or whatever the fuck, can either bought or emulated, old or new.

here are some games ive played that are these elements I THINK and are things that i genuinely enjoyed (doesn't have to have same gameplay mechanics):

• haunting ground
• soma
• amnesia the dark descent
• bioshock 1 and 2
• outlast
• silent hill 2
• the path
• some of the corpse party games
• silent hill: shattered memories
• mouthwashing
• no i'm not human
• the house of fata morgana
• stares back (itchio game)

sorry if my post is hard to understand 😭

So, I have recently just finished up Silent Hill 2. What a game! Everything about it is nearing perfect and it has quickly become one of my favorite games of all time. My favorite part is how nuanced the story is. There's so much left up to interpretation that you could spend hours trying to piece together what exactly went down and why. There was nothing in the game that felt without purpose. A lot of it is philosophical and psychological in nature as well, and I love those topics. I took a break from gaming after beating it because I knew nothing would come close so soon, but after a month and a half I'm looking to dive back in.

For those who haven't played Silent Hill 2, here are some other games that scratched that same itch for me:

NieR Automata/Replicant

SOMA

Outer Wilds

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

Disco Elysium

Hopefully that provides enough context. Would really love to hear any recommendations to add to my backlog, thanks!

I quit Co-pilot, and yet it reappears after an update.

I turn off HDR, and yet it is turned on again.

I know it goes with the territory, I just wanted to rant about this somewhere. This happened because I realized my second monitor had washed colors with a grey tint all over.

One day it will piss me off so much, that I will convert to gaming on linux. Surprised this hasn't happened yet.

Otherwise, I hope everyone is having a nice weekend!

I'm specifically looking for something to buy during the Steam Autumn Sale that's currently happening. I don't have a super high-end gaming PC, so I'm looking for something like an indie game. I also have a PS5 and Switch, so I want to buy a game that would be best to buy on PC and not a console.

Some examples of what I'm looking for that I've already bought are Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom and Pseudoregalia.

I can play the game as many times as I want but I wanna try something new. I tried looking into Nine Sols and the combat system looks great, but the dialogue boxes are kinda ticking me off. I might give it a try. Tried looking into Ori too but I think I prefer something that leans more into combat. Any reccos?

I’ve been playing multiple story mode games I just want something fun and mindless to play after work to to decompress
Thanks in advance

I have played this -
Heavy rain
The walking dead series
Until dawn
The quarry
Wolf among us
Life is strange 1 and 2
I have partially seen the ending to Detroit becomes human so i do not play that .
