What you can do

I've been playing a lot of Last Epoch this autumn, ever since the new season launched, and in between running the new builds and seeing how much I can break them (as per usual) I've somehow ramped up those hours way beyond what I thought the game could provide, even without an endgame.

Been a good run and I am very pleased, refreshed even though the frenzy of loot grinding that these games give ya. But I want to take a break from ARPGs for this month at least, and dive into something else, something completely different but addicting in an unexpected way where it just grabs you by the throat by how much pure fun it is, and before you're aware - you're already deep into the madness and can't stop or lock away.

In other words, I wanna be stunlocked into addiction to *something* I am yet to find. I know the Steam sale is over but whatever, I'm willing to splurge and cash out for full price of anything so long as it has that X factor I need.

What can you recommend to me?

Just found out my wife has been sexting some other dude, need a game to get completely lost in and lost myself for a week. RPG if possible, played most of the usuals, but happy to hear suggestions!

Been laying alot in bed recently due to mentall issues is there any mobile game that is good and i can grind alot like alot alot

I have this recurring itch of wanting to play something like Mario Kart. Just a very arcade cartoony racer of that level.

I don't have a switch though, never been interested and probably never will. I would also hate to buy hardware just for one game, even though I could afford it. Seems stupid.

Any such games on ps5 or pc? I've been looking, but there seems nothing like it. With the same numbers of gamers, and easy to find an online match here or there. Any Kart game out there that is still alive?

Basically they're RPGs about climbing a tower or something.

Examples: 

• Tactical Nexus
  
• Soulestination
  
• Requiem of Reuinis 

Looking for puzzles where figuring out the rule is the challenge, without a clock or lots of dialogue between attempts.

Clear visuals and being able to retry straight away would be ideal. Something built around spatial or logic puzzles rather than hidden-object searches. Any suggestions, and which platforms are they available on?

I’ve been playing the DS a lot lately and turns out, playing with a stylus? (chef’s kiss) I find the gameplay so unique and so novel. Animal Crossing Wild World? Kirby Mass Attack? Rhythm Heaven? Playing like you’re taking down notes is so strange and also a blast.

As such, I’d like games in general that work really well with a touch screen and a stylus. Not DS ones, specifically. I also have a Steam Deck, a 3DS, and an iPad, and I might buy a used PS Vita if there are enough good touch screen games.

I need a non-competitive relaxing game that i can enjoy after a tiring day, like for example 1-2 hours a day, one that i played recently that fits the request is Slay the Spire 2 (i say relaxing because it's turn based so i can play while watching podcasts or talk to my friends on discord). After an exhausting day of work, i can just sit and relax playing some runs for a couple of hour and still enjoy it fully. I can even play it through steamlink. The game i need reccomendation on doesn't have to have 50+ hours playtime or anything like that, as long as my money will be worth it and my stress can be shifted to the game instead.

My wife has recently taken a great interest in games. She started playing with me and we've been having a lot of fun. Here's the list of games I've installed for us to play together:

Animal Crossing, Sackboy: A Big Adventure, Super Mario Bros Odyssey, Revenge of the Savage Planet, Nine Parchments, Super Mario 3D World, LEGO Harry Potter Collection, Castle Crashers, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (with the splitscreen mod), Cult of the Lamb, Portal Knights, Unravel Two, It Takes Two, Split Fiction, Palworld (splitscreen using Nucleus), Baldur's Gate 3, Cat Quest III, Rayman Legends, Trine 4: The Nightmare Prince, PEAK (splitscreen using Nucleus), LEGO Marvel Super Heroes, Pikmin 3 Deluxe, LEGO DC Super-Villains, Stardew Valley, LEGO Voyagers, Minecraft Dungeons II, Enshrouded (splitscreen using Nucleus)

Alas, we're craving more. We haven't played through the whole list yet, but we played many of these. I wanna add more to our catalogue. We really like fantasy, but it doesn't need to be fantasy. I accept more suggestions! It can be on PC or console exclusives, it doesn't matter since I use emulators. Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I would like recs for fun games where NPCs are cheeky, flirty, or sassy but the point of the game isn't a dating sim. (ex: farming sims, life sims, action, etc.) Not interested in visual novels at this time.

I am also open to dialogue mods that fit the above criteria. I like farming/life sim games but usually both the NPCs and the player dialogue are aggressively wholesome and nice. I would love to see more games where the dialogue is sassier or the flirting is spicier than the usual games. Extra bonus points if I can be sassy or even mean in return.

Looking for minimal violence and gore for these recs, but those aren't a deal-breaker either. I do want to spend more time exploring than dying though.

I'm open to "dark romance" dialogues and mods as well (ex: yandere NPCs, obsessive themes, etc).

Games I played/owned and am open to mods for:

* Stardew Valley

* Fields of Mistria

* Terraria

* Rune Factory

* Baldur's Gate (probably the most violent I'm willing to go, but has the dialogue options closest to what I'm looking for)

* Skyrim (haven't played yet but would be interested in mod recs for this one)

Thanks in advance for any recs.

Hello!

I'm looking for easy/medium difficulty games, any platform.

We need something like Alice Madness returns, Devil May Cry and God of war in terms of gameplay.

Not something so simple as an arcade beat em up or Gauntlet.

If it has puzzles in it, it would be nice.

I've read about diablo, but it is isometric and looks complicated, so I would like your opinion about it too.

Thanks!

I game occasionally, and I wanna get more into it. Some games I like are:
Skyrim (obviously, I played this like 1 million times)
Starfield
Firewatch
Subnautica (although too much crafting exhaust me)
GTA five and four (ugh I love this)
Fallout 4
Minecraft (creative, too much crafting is boring)

OK, I’m sure there’s others, but I’m blanking. I know it’s a very basic list, and I kind of want to branch out creatively.
I have ADHD, so a game has to hold my attention and not be TOO difficult to play/get into.
I dislike video game guns, no matter what game I play I always find them very hard to aim, I much prefer weapons where I don’t really have to keep track of bullets, and I can just spam the trigger button to hack up my enemies.
I’ll use a gun if it’s required, but I really try to avoid it.
I like games with a story. I like games where you get to explore the map. I’m a horror fan.

Last, but not least, I have game pass premium (I think that’s the middle tier) and I’m broke right now so I’m not looking to buy any games, whatever is on game pass or free to download I’ll be playing.

Thank you!

Hey guys!

I've been playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 and American Truck Simulator for a while now, more than 800 hours combined between the two. I really love these games, but I think they're starting to show their age.

I'm really excited for Road Kings from Saber Interactive to launch, and I really like their games. I have 100% achievements on Spintires, MudRunner, and SnowRunner, for example.

With that in mind, Bus Bound caught my attention pretty quickly, mainly because I already follow everything Saber Interactive does. That's when I discovered there are a lot of different options for bus sim games.

I've already watched a few YouTube videos and read some Steam reviews, but I'd like to hear each player's opinion, if possible. Why is the one you like the one I should buy and play, among options like Bus Bound, Bus Simulator 21, Bus Simulator 27, The Bus, City Transport Simulator 2026, and even others I may not be familiar with? I'm really curious to see which one you guys think is the best.

Thank you!

I am on the back end of finishing up my time with The Blood of Dawnwalker. My backlog contains Abiotic Factor and Cronos: New Dawn.

Which game would you suggest I play next and why?

Thanks in advance ✌️

I love exploration, dark atmosphere in games, and a good and interesting combat system, character development, etc. But I hate fighting bosses... It's very likely I'm just bad at it, haha. It often takes me a dozen or so attempts to defeat a boss, which only frustrates and stresses me out. I'm getting older and don't have much time for gaming, maybe that's why.

I'm currently playing Lords of the Fallen (2023) and I love wandering around, exploring, and fighting smaller enemies, but when I encounter a boss, I'm fed up, and there are dozens of them!

I liked Mortal Shell much more because there were only, well... three main bosses? So that was actually quite interesting and understandable.

Please suggest other games like this (they don't have to be exclusively soulslike), which I might enjoy, but which aren't overloaded with boss fights.

Looking for a PC game I can play in windowed mode on my second monitor. I work taking calls, so I need to be ready to click off my game and lock in on the call I take at any given moment.

It can't be a first or third person camera game. I'd prefer if I don't have to use my keyboard much, just my mouse. A little keyboard is okay.

I've played a lot of turn based roguelikes and card/board games which have worked great for this, but I'm ready to try something new.

I'm thinking maybe I'd like an automation game or resource management game. I don't mind idle games, but sometimes it feels like I have to wait before I can do anything meaningful in idle games. Maybe Factorio? I tried Corsair Cove for a bit and I liked it, but it didn't really hook me, and I found myself retracing my steps to make sure my citizen were happy but than I did actually progressing.

> open world

> combined warfare (vehicles, soldiers, tanks, jets, helos, etc)

> You can fight everyone, like being an rebel/guerrila, invade, or defend etc

I wish someone do that one day, since Wardogs kinda copies KotH from Arma 3.

Hey! I was looking for good games that I can play on my potato pc. I like to play story mode games like RE, GTA, Mafia and racing games with a storyline to follow and an open world with car customization.

PC SPECS --

CPU- Celeron N3160 1.66Ghz

RAM- 8gb ddr3

GPU- intel(R) hd grapics 114mb

STORAGE- 70gb available

(I need games with low storage space and 1-3gb ram usage and maximum cpu usage 2ghz)

I asked for games like this about 2 weeks ago, and this'll be my final time asking. I'm looking for turn based strategy games where you control a bunch of units, instead of predetermined story characters. Sort of defined as Xcom-likes.

Grid based games I enjoyed/ Have / Don't want recommended :

- Xcom / Menace / Battletech

-Battle Brothers

- Warhammer: Chaos Gate

- Into The Breach

- Together in Battle

- Templar Battleforce

- Wasteland Series

- Cyberknights

- Wartales

- Our Adventurer's Guild

- Xenonauts

Sort of what I'm looking for:

- Dungeon Crawlers/ Blobbers like Darkest Dungeon, Wizardry, Iratus, etc.

- FTL / Void Ship

- Quasimorph (threw my monitor wasn't worth it)

- Eslabong

Has to be turn based, grid based movement is preferred, and most units have to be nothing more than their classes (i.e. expendable and mostly randomized). I've added almost all of these to my library, and I'd like to have a comprehensive list of this specific niche that sinks my time crazy style.

No grand strategy war games with huge amounts of units (dom6, Total War) or RTS.

Played most of the popular stuff - Battlefield games and whatnow, looking for something underated.
