These days, I don’t game much, as I just don’t have much time sadly. But with winter rolling in and Black Ops 6 being released and watching the trailer, it had me thinking back and reminiscing of the good old days : Black ops zombies, online team death match marathons, nuketown, care packages, the whole works.

I’m mainly looking to play some FPS, like Black Ops 6. I used to play Modern Warfare, Battlefield, not sure if there are any new ones out. I also liked playing FIFA. I had a PS2, PS3, and Xbox one, none of which work anymore.

Another important thing is I’d want something that can act as a media centre. Idk if there are some fun, simple social games on Xbox or PS5 where a group of friends who are not gamers can join in and have some fun with simple but entertaining games. I’d also just want to be able to watch movies with it, pull up some photos, maybe FaceTime, and just overall have something that has the bells and whistles of a media centre, although I’ve been thinking of just getting AppleTV for all that since I’m invested in the Apple ecosystem, so maybe I could just have Xbox/PS and AppleTV.

I don’t plan on gaming too much, but it’s nice to sometimes relive the old days, so I don’t necessarily need the best and would preferably want something that is lower cost. With Black Friday coming up, I want to settle on a choice and grab it when it’s on sale.

TIA.

It seems like most titles are weird, nerdy autustic games with magic, alternate realities and weird gross aliens and monsters. I absolutely hate that kind of stuff. All I like playing are games that have some realism; Total War games, Kingdom Come, Deliverance, GTA, CIVILISATION and some WWII shooters. Are there enough decent games of this kind to justify spending over £1000 on?

I really wanna shoot something.... Pref with a sniper!
Most of battlefield is on SUPER sale atm... (on steam) Wich should i buy for Longjevity and Shooting Fun?
I do gravitate towards shooters that allow me to snipe! As i love the feeling of Unseen destruction...
Wich is why i figured BF might be fun...

(if cod went back to No AI bs, id play CoD.. But I wanna do the killing, Not 3 kills Afk with a Ipad...)

I'm looking for a high fantasy game with rpg elemnts, magic, castles, knights, the works. I don't mind if it's open world or more linear, I enjoy both. I prefer turn based RPGs but it's ok if it's more action. I really like games where you create your own character but it's ok if it's more pre built. I also enjoy party based RPGs, the kind where you have plenty of options to choose from companions with different classes. I don't like silent protagonist.

Games on this vibe I liked:

Dvinity Orginal Sin 1 and 2

BG3

Fear and hunger 1 and Termina

All Elder Scrolls

All Dark Souls and Elden Ring

Dragon's Dogma 1 and 2 (Thought i didn't like the madic system or RPG elements)

Thanks

I’ve been playing a lot of great games lately, but I gotta say, i’m really surprised that Refantazio isn’t available on Game Pass yet. It’s gotten such great reviews from Metacritic (91/100), and it seems like something they usually would offer since they have offered plenty of Atlus games in the past. I’m honestly a little shocked that it hasn’t been added already, especially with how much I’ve been hearing about it from friends and fans of Atlus.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think this game would be an amazing game to add to Game Pass? I know I’m not the only one who’s been wanting to play it but haven’t gotten the chance yet because of the price of the game and my pc specs. I feel like many people would like this game if it came to game pass, is that just me?

If you agree, do you think there’s a way we could give feedback to Xbox about this? Maybe if enough of us ask, they’ll consider adding it to Game Pass. I really am dying to play this game, so I'm definitely going to at least submit feedback.

Hello! I know they're two totally different games, but which one would last longer for me? And which one is more fun in general? I like the idea that DRG:S loads fast, quick drop-in and drop-out of the missions, so it was created with the replayability in mind, also good graphics for a 2D vampire survivors-like game.

The Division 2 on the other hand looks very good in it's 3D graphics, is more involved with shooting etc. But I'm afraid I will get bored of it sooner, although I would prefer this one a tad bit. Anyone who played one of those two, convince me why your pick is better than the other. Thanks

So which of these games is better, as far as I'm aware both of these are very similar games I've had a lot of fun playing mindustry on my mobile and I would say these two games are the same but are much better but I would only get one of the 2 but which is the one to go for. Hit me with the positives and negatives of both please.

Hi, wondering if anyone similar to me has tried it and can either strongly recommend or not recommend.

1. I love Civ 6, but wished their was more role playing with characters, hence the interest

2. I love football manager so assuming I will get on with the data/info side of things

3. Can only really find 1 hour blocks of time to play as have a 3 kids

4. Never played a grand strategy before

5. Playing on a steam deck

Thanks!

Switch or PC actually.

I know these games are beloved but I’ve never given them a go yet. From my understanding, they are beat em ups with a good story.

My favorite games are games that have very strong atmosphere, exploration, and secrets. Basically, metroidvanias, the souls franchise, Witcher 3, etc. I also love platformers too.

I'm looking for a game to play when I get home from work. I've read almost all the posts on this subject in this sub, but I haven't found a game that I've said "this is what I'm looking for". I'm looking for an online grind game. The reason I'm looking online is probably because I've played all the singleplayer bangers with a story or grind. Games I've been playing addictively lately:

Terraria: I used to play 5 hours a day before I started working. I really liked grind. I completed the game completely.

Rimworld: Another game I played at least 5 hours a day and couldn't get enough of. Although the game has a high replayability, I'm looking for a new taste.

Grind games I play online:

EA FC 25: I play FUT every year. It was my favorite game to play after work. Even though I got really mad, I always found something to hold on to and played it regularly. This year, I've made sure that this pile of garbage isn't worth the time I spend.

League of Legends: I've been playing for 11 years. Playing LoL is now considered muscle memory for me, but I've only been playing ARAM for the last 3 years and even ARAM drives me crazy sometimes. Still, I like its replayability and I play it from time to time.

BO6: I've been playing BO6 multiplayer lately. I can say that it's fun, but for me, the satisfaction and replayability are a bit low. I usually play for 1 hour and put it aside.

The common feature of these games for me is that I can play alone without a friend, even if they're online. I feel like it's time for me to play MMORPGs, but I looked at almost all the MMORPGs recommended in this sub and they didn't make me feel good - I got bored easily (even Guild Wars 2). It has become a pretty complicated post, but I need your help. I'm open to all the games you can suggest based on my pleasures. I can play any genre of game.

Majority of my gaming has been on Xbox, got a pc recently and now my ps5 pro should be delivered soon. I’ve seen videos for Astro bot and I’ve seen characters as bots I don’t know. Will I still enjoy this game? What can I expect in this? I assume no story just jumping around, collecting stuff and having fun?

I'm quite familiar with the content all these games have to offer and I will eventually get all of them however, I can only buy one of them as things stand right now

• Balder's gate 3
• Space marines 2
• Black Myth wukong
• lies of P

In these situations I usually just turn my brain off and go with the cheapest option but I wanted to get some outside perspective

I really want to get this game, but I don't know if it'll be too scary or not. I got to play this game for a bit and I noticed that at the end of each day there's a message that pops up saying that there will be less supplies and more infected. I have no problem fighting a few zombies, but if it's a giant horde then I'm definitely going to start panicking. Also it doesn't help that I kept finding useless junk in the map. Is there a way I can turn off this option so that I don't have to worry about getting overwhelmed?

Hi, so I have some days off and I ben tincking about playing New Vegas but I have a series X so I'm gonna play via backwards compatible and I always hear the console versión is pretty bad in terms of framerate and bugs so my cuestión is.

Is it worthwhile to play on a console or would it be better to wait until I can play on a PC?

Hi, i have 7yo nephew and we met in my mother house every week. I think its my time to introduce gaming pc to him, any sugestion on multiplayer game like overcooked or any splitscreen on pc? Thanks.

Prefer with joystik, splitscreen are welcome maybe game from ps2 are ok

(Filler for 300 character requirement)

hi!

a close friend of mine just recently got their ps5, and have been playing on it non-stop! they've already finished the last of us and cyberpunk edgerunners games. they're currently on final fantasy 11 and are planning to buy god of war: ragnarok.

christmas is coming up and i want to give them something they'll enjoy and remember.

they don't like anything too scary or gory, or anything underwater hahaha. they have a switch too and played dave the diver, zelda, and the harry potter game.

if you have any suggestions, please do help a fella out! cheers!

Hello! TBOIR currently has 50% discount, so I'm interested in buying it. I heard about this game a lot and many people said it's a great game.

About my game tastes: I kind of enjoy Rogue like, enjoy hard games, long games (like 70-100 hours to complete it), good story, survival, coop.

I HATE games where you have to buy dlcs to enjoy them, otherwise no fun. I see dlcs for TBOIR and I hope that I don't need to buy them to enjoy the game.

Hello everyone!

I have a budget of $60 and want to buy some games to play, because recently I have been quite exhausted in terms of gaming. I have finished a lot of games I wanted to play and don't know what to play anymore.

Some of the game that I have finished and liked a lot:

• Cyberpunk 2077 + DLC
• Far Cry 3,4,5
• Watch Dogs 1,2
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Fallout 3, NV, 4
• GTA IV, V + older GTA titles
• The Mafia trilogy
• Terraria
• Dishonored
• Prey
• Division 1,2
• Witcher 3
• Dave the diver
• Dying Light 1
• Sleeping Dogs

Please don‘t recommend Elden Ring or any souls-like games

Recently I have been eyeing Baldur's Gate 3 but the turn based combat and non-WASD controls are putting me off which is why I am going to pass on it. I have also been wanting to get Jedi Fallen Order as it's on sale right now.

What games would you recommend me to get with that budget?

UPDATE 1:

I ended up going for Baldur’s Gate 3. I was a bit too quick to write it off and maybe I need to play it a bit before making my judgement. Will keep you updated

So with christmas around the corner i wanted to buy some games for christmas i choose some but i wanted to buy something new that i never played or i did't choose so what would you recomend me getting for christmas or what are you getting for christmas ? Could be anything that has a physical disk ps5 or ps4 version (thank you if you anwser)

Hi! I am looking to play something new. I currently play Rocket League and FFXIV the most, I also play CS2 a bit. I am open to new suggestions. I love open world games, rpgs, it really depends on a game. Here are my favorite games of all time: FPS: Counter Strike 2, Call of Duty 2 Platformer (2d): Super Mario World, Donkey Kong Country 2 Survival: Minecraft Third person shooter: GTA 5, Star Wars Battlefront 2 (2017) Visual novel: The white door, Goragoa RPG: The Witcher 3 JRPG: Chrono Trigger, Breath of Fire 4 Strategy: Age of Empires 2 Fighting: Tekken 7 Indie: Katana Zero Racing: Mario Kart Wii Sports: NHL 94, Pes 2009, Rocket League Roguelike: Dead Cells, Downwell, ARPG: Diablo 2 Run 'n Gun: Sunset Riders Turn Based RPG: Final Fantasy Tactics, Super Mario RPG MMO: World of Warcraft MOBA: Dota 2, Mobile Legends, Vainglory

Hello!

I'm on the hunt for a game where I can live out a relaxed, self-sufficient life. I want a game that lets me do things like build my own house, tend to a garden, grow crops, cook meals, and just generally enjoy a slow, creative experience. Think of it as building my dream homestead in the digital world! I don't mind grinding at all. I just want Singleplayer.

I hear about Force of Nature which looks really good, but I'm not yet so sure about it.
I wanted something like Project Zomboid but WITHOUT the zombies. My enemy should be the wilderness and the sustaining of my character (food, shelter etc.) I'd also love Farming, Gardering and such stuff.

I played Vintage Story which is amazing but I look for something else.

I'm aware of Stardew Valley which is one of my favorite but still I'm looking for something different than such games. A game without a story just my style of playing.

And I'm also open for games that aren't well known and they don't need to be on Steam.

Thank you!

We played A Way Out together and we really enjoyed it. Kinda sucks that there aren't many other games like it. I suggested that we could play It Takes Two but he said that the story didn't look very interesting and thought it looked corny. I know the gameplay is supposed to be good but he still didn't want to play it. My current thoughts now is that we could play Untitled Goose Game even though it's really short, I'll see what he has to say about that. Do you have any suggestions? Cheers.

Game(s) I am considering: Aska or Sengoku Dynasty

The game(s) interest me because: I love the survival and building aspect of both games. Especially with the people working for/with you together (the townspeople).

My concerns about purchasing the game(s): I don't know which of both is best played solo, which is more polished and will bring a more long-time fun. In Sengoku, the Buildings all look so similar to one another.

Games I've liked and why: Valheim, Palworld, Enshrouded. Like already said, Survival and Building Aspects. Especially Palworld was really funny with the pets running around and doing stuff.

Games I've disliked and why: Rimworld. Can't really tell why I don't like it, it just never clicked with me.

I can only get 1 and yakuza does turn out the more economic option and based on other posts people swing one way or another so i dont feel like im choosing the inferior choice just cause its cheaper they both seem equally good from what i hear so im thinking ds1 another time? What do yall think? Im kinda also thinking to flip a coin it really is a hard choice

Games:

• Edith Finch
• Hellblade Senua's Saga
• A Plague Tale Series
• Superliminal
• Inside
• Indika

If you haven't notice, most of the games I mentioned are story driven and linear. They also deliver a unique experience that most other games don't have. Like they really did something new there, whether it's the story or the puzzle mechanism in Superliminal or the unique experience like Hellblade with the whispering.

Also played other games like Lara Croft, Uncharted, The Witcher 3, and I enjoyed them but this time I want something unique like the games above.

PS: Also no difficult games. I'm not good at FPS.

Howdy y'all,

TL;DR: what are some coop and non-pvp games I can play with my partner who is a semi-casual gamer but isn't averse to some challenging/deep games.

I'm looking for games to play with my partner. Most posts I'm finding are for a super-casual gamer partner. Mine's a little different in that they've enjoyed some less-casual, deeper, or more challenging games. Still, not a huge fan of FPS games and lean heavily into RPGs. Their rig isn't super powerful, R5 2600, Vega 56, 16gb DDR4 (not super particular about performance, they're very okay with 1080p low @ 30fps, but worth noting).

Games we've played together that they enjoyed (and played a lot of**)**

• Baldur's Gate 3 (200+hrs, multiple playthroughs)
• Valheim (300+ hours, still played a few times a week)
• Divinity: Original Sin 2 (300+ hours, multiple playthroughs)
• Destiny 2 (100+ hours)
• Outward (100+ hours, multiple playthroughs and 100%)
• Roboquest (30 hours, loved it)
• It Takes Two (played the whole game 3X)

Games they've played solo (a lot) and enjoyed:

• Blacktail (100% the game)
• Witcher 3 (80 hours)
• AER: Memories of Old (100% the game)
• Oblivion (50 hrs)
• Sky: Children of Light (100+ hrs)
• Morrowind
• Townscaper

Stuff that wasn't a hit:

• Elden Ring (loved it, but it was too hard and was super frustrating to them. Even heavy modding and Seamless didn't change their mind)
• Fallout 4 (just didn't hook them)
• DayZ (way too clunky)
• DOOM (too fast and gory)
• Hellblade: Senua's Saga (too scary)

Please help, Christmas is coming up and I always get everyone at least one game. We're super outdoorsy and wintertime means we're stuck inside. Any suggestions would be super helpful. Thank you in advance. UwU.

I really want a new game to grind and these are the two I'm split on. I love games like warframe and ffxiv and dead by daylight. I just wanna play a game for awhile but I'm not sure which has more playtime. I do love vampire survivors and have 105 hours on it and have done everything so I am not sure if Vampire Hunters has more content or not. I am down for any more suggestions though !

I really would like a grinding game, Something akin to things like granblue fantasy relink, diablo, xdnoblsde chronicles, just something with a good grind and good post game stuff hopefully I've been looking at star ocean second story r but I'm not sure if that has a grind to it or not Ideally I love grinding for higher levels, better loot and gear, As an example - xenoblade chronicles 2 is one of my fave games in terrms of grinding for levels, gear, upgrades and such, i will also add i do love monster hunter and have played most of the newer ones can't decide between playing worlds of rise atm thanks! Edited to add

I've played grim dawn, and poe, both very good games but not what I'm after atm

Love the disgaea series too

Looking for games that have a great story to follow but also have snappy & responsive gameplay like Returnal or Doom.

I love games with amazing gameplay but when the focus is only gameplay and none on the story it gets boring for me. Same with the other way around. I like a nice mix of both.

Any recommendations?

I have been on the best gaming run of my life recently, back to back bangers with:

Red Dead 2 Ghosts of Tsushima Dragons Dogma 2 Black Myth Wukong Final fantasy XVI God of War (1&2) Spiderman 2

Now my list is running short and I'm looking at what's next, I'm sure there are so many great games known and unknown and would love to hear your recommendations!

I have PS5 and PC, have put quite a bit of money recently into my set up so preferably something modern that I can justify with good graphics!

Thanks in advance
