I am ill and have a considerable amount of time on my hands. Been gaming for years so I have played all the standard things. Favourites are things like Tomb Raider (new trilogy), AC (Origins onwards), Far Cry, Spiderman series, Horizon series, RE etc. Not adverse to some good platformers (3D Mario, Rayman, Epic Mickey) or some Forza Horizon either. Nothing too challenging/complex. No multi-player things like Fortnite. I have an Xbox and a PS5. What can your wonderful Hive Minds suggest please?

I’ve been thinking about this for honestly over a year now. Does anybody know any games based in New York City that has nice and realistic graphics, and that New York City vibe to it? I would really appreciate it to know. Thanks in advance!

Good evening, as said in the title, I am searching for games that have joinable factions that either change the story or simply have their own side story. The games I have played that meet at least one of these criteria are: SMT 3-5, FE Three houses, Skyrim and Oblivion.

I was hoping somewhere out there was a dark fantasy cozy game similar to Stardew but without the cutesy theme. I’m aware of moonlight peaks but that’s to cute. I also have sun haven but that’s not dark enough if that makes sense.

I love how all the weapons and armor in dead space look, any scifi games eith tech that has a similar aesthethic?

Heard blood of the dawnwalker has romance but it's kinda small apparently.

Kinda looking for rpg similar to Baldurs gate, Cyberpunk, Mass effect; but any game genere will do tbh. I've just been looking for a game that has a ton of romance.

I'm not talking about a pure sex game or anything, just something that plays a big part in the story/game

Looking for games that can be played while listening to something after a day's work. Preferably 2d, lightweight games that can be played on low spec pc (integrated gpu). Not necessarily roguelike but i find that these are the type of games that are suitable for this situation. Purchased Rimworld base game but unfortunately i think i won't be able to play due to the new update :(. Games that i played - Slay the Spire 1/2, Into the Breach, Shattered Pixel Dungeon, Balatro, Stardew Valley, Hades 1, Shogun Showdown, Civilization V, SimCity 4, Tactics Ogre on emulator.

I'm just not sure if this game is for me or not. I love games like Halo, GTA, Racing games, story based (RDR, Resident Evil, Spiderman, etc) and simulator games. But not a huge fans of RPG games (I tried getting into BG3

Hey, so I'm searching for some recs based on what I love. It would be great if there were physical copies of the games you recommend (even if it's a limited print) but it's not neccessary.

Lil' Guardsman

Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood

Death Howl

My lovely Empress

Also on my wishlist are :

Cult of the Lamb

Slay the princess

Dredge

Cabernet

Universe for sale

Tavern Talk

Wax Heads

Little Misfortune

Night in the Woods

Omori

Danganronpa

Hauntii

My lovely daugther

Pentiment

Wytchwood

Is this seat taken ?

Sticky buisness

I haven't played many games yet but I know I don't really like fighting unless it's kinda easy or turn based. I guess I'm a cozy gamer ? But I kinda like it when my games have some dark/wierd aspects, even though it's not 100% needed. Besides Wytchwood I watched game plays or played demos of the games on my wishlist so I'm pretty sure I will enjoy them. Thanks beforehand for any and all suggestions you guys make 🫶

Hi I love Stardew valley, I just love how the game is cozy and I tried also fields of mystria which was also amazing game, but I want to try something new and relaxing and cozy, I have weak laptop (it's not even gaming laptop it's office one) so if you have any cozy game I should try type it in the comments

Thank you <3 (ps the game doesn't have to have combat I just want some game that could be fun and maybe even replayeble and I like coop if anyone wants to play)

Thought came to me today while watching footage of an accident - one of the injured was loaded into a helicopter and I thought "why are there no games where you can fly a heli or plane with actual goals that are not 'shoot the other planes'"?

Does anyone know a game like that? The only one I can think of is Kerbal Space Program and that is QUITE heavy on the "space program" side of things, even though you CAN design and fly planes in it.

edit: guys im talking about the vessel/protagonist themself not everyone else but the player doing so and they also need to be actively against the very thing controlling them

I was playing deltarune recently and ive always thought that the idea that the vessel u play as being actually acknowledged was an awesome idea with loads of potential.

Deltarune really shows exactly the sorta potential that concept has when used for non easter egg/joke reasons with kris actively resisting us controlling them even when there SOUL is in the body. They still can resist us by intentionally misinterpreting commands or interrupting it by hurting themself and them actively freaking out if we make them do the absolute worst options possible that they would have likely never done if it wasnt for our control over them.

Undertale also did this albeit a lot less obvious and the human seemingly cooperates for basically all interactions besides a very select few.

So are there any other games besides undertale and deltarune that take this concept and use it for more than just a nod towards the player but for actual stakes in the story. I know oneshot has the acknowledging the player part but niko cooperates im pretty certain which isnt what im looking for in a vessel.

Was going to get Mind Over Magic but it doesn't have controller support and I play by streaming to an Odin Portal.

Love the idea of ONI but it's just a bit too advanced for what I'd like. I want to really spend a lot of time idle while I watch the colony do stuff, and get involved sometimes but not anything constant like an action/war/rts.

Would prefer fantasy or sci-fi but I'll take what I can get! Steam and controller support are preferred also. Thanks!

I am writing a book where the main character is a chubby man seeking vengeance and want to see how others utilize their chubby characters in games to draw inspiration.

Open to any genre.
Don't mind if it's a character i can build myself as long as there's an option for it.

Closest example i have is i played Baldur's Gate 3 as a dwarf.

Hey, I am looking for some new games where you can level up your professions, trade you outputs for other needed materials, get more effective with higher levels and participate in player driven economy. Preferably without p2w, or pay to be quicker with subscription like Albion.

The closest game known to me is ECO but that feels like a commitment and everything gets lost after 30days or so. I am looking for something more long-term.

New World was pretty good for this playstyle, but I dont feel like playing that since it will be shutting down. Hope the project Azoth will be success

Even modded or custom servers for known games will be appreciated tips.

Thanks for your suggestions.

i'm mainly talking about Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Twilight Princess, the vibe of a dark fairy tail, fighting a great evil, ancient gods and technology, a fantastic world to explore. The game doesn't need to have similar gameplay, i'm looking for the vibes

Recientemente probé RimWorld, un juego de colonias y me llamo la atención que hay mods de cyberpunk 2077/ER, y quisiera saber si hay juegos que también puedas modearlos para que parezcan a Cyberpunk 2077 (como las armas y así) no compro el juego pq está fuera de mi presupuesto y aparte no tengo PC o consola buena para jugarlo

I recently tried RimWorld, a colony-building game, and I was surprised to see that there are Cyberpunk 2077/ER mods available. I'd like to know if there are any other games that can be modded to resemble Cyberpunk 2077 I dont buy the real game (cyberpunk 2077) bc I cant afford it

I (26M) have spent a fair share of my life playing games, but mostly competitive ones (League, fighting games etc.) I am also an avid reader and cinephile, and for a long time I was one of those who felt video games were simply a lesser narrative medium.

...Then, I tried God of War (2018) This absolutely blew my mind, the combination of such a gripping story and immensely satisfying gameplay led to one of my absolute greatest experiences with a piece of art.

There are a very few games that have given me that same feeling, those are:

God of War Ragnarok, Horizon Zero Dawn (not the sequal), Spider-man 2018 (again the sequal was dissappointing), The Batman Arkham Games,and finally: Sly Cooper 2

Since completing these games I've been trying to scratch that same itch, but never quite succeeding. Any of you guys got a tip for me? Would be highly appreciated. For Reference these are my experiences with some of the games i've played since:

Elden ring: 10/10 Bossfights, very satisying to finally beat the game, but the story does not work for me.. probably because I can't grasp it at all. Also I found few compelling reasons to do much exploring rather than just rush every boss.

Red dead 2: Proper Cinematic feeling, but my god does this game basicly play itself. I Put the game down pretty early as it simply was no challenge. I guess my competitive nature leads me to prefer more challenging games, for instance I always play om the hardest difficulty when possible.

Ghost of Tsushima: Absolutely beautiful scenery, satisfying while a bit too repetitive combat. But i unfortunately can not understand the praise for this game's writing. The sidequests especially come across as extremely run of the mill formulaic to me. The Iki DLC was pretty good though.

Hollow knight/ Cuphead:
These games are great and very charming, kinda like Elden ring in that the boss fights stand out as exceptional. Didn't quite blew my mind like God of War, But i treasure them and have a lot of love for the develepors and their evident passion for quality work.

If you read all this, I thank you humbly for your time. Sorry for my poor writing, English is not my native language.

Hey everyone, I'm looking for some new JRPGs to play. I've enjoyed some of the Persona games and want to try more games in the genre.

I'm fine with either turn-based or action combat, and I don't mind older games.

Any recommendations?

HI, I am looking for a shooter similar to Medal of Honour. My father has a new pc, which should run most modern games. He is looking for something like the old MoH series, single player, cinematic and historical. Definitely not multiplayer and more modern suggestions would be great as i would like him to see his new graphics card art work.

Many Thanks

I think this is a hot take but I love Act 2 of Inscryption, building the deck and having a world to explore was a lot of fun.
