Recently i saw that Red Dead Redemption 2 (The Ultimate Edition) is currently on sale on steam for ₹1039 or about $12. The sale lasts till Feb 6th

I have never spent money on buying games so i was wondering if it was worth it to buy Red Dead Redemption for $12. And i also dont have much storage on my disk. Should i buy it ?

For a little backstory, i was never really into story games till i discovered RDR2. So i’ve played that, i’ve dived in to both of the last of us games, and i purchased GoT. It was the best game i have ever played. (Better than rdr2 in my opinion) I loved the combat, and story, and i was wondering if there were any other similar games? I need something with story, but it’s open world, with a good combat system and rewarding gameplay with more to do than just missions. (Places to earn cosmetics and new weaponry etc) Maybe these terms are too narrow, but if there is a game close enough to my description please tell me.

Should I buy Elden ring or witcher 3 or Alan Wake 2 or ff16 Never played souls game before neither know anything about any of the mentioned games. I love rdr2 and God of war Ragnarok and stories of both. I love the exploration and different things that rdr2 has and I love the combat and collecting things and upgrading them that gow ragnarok offers.

I cannot decide between these games:

STALKER 2 (never played a stalker game though)

Black Myth Wukong

Indiana Jones

Star Wars Outlaw

Silent Hill 2

Ideally, I would like a game with resource management (like, keeping resources to build weapons or stuff along those lines), freedom to approach an objective the way I see fit (would be great if I, for instance, can use stealth rather than go guns blazing), and a relatively good story. I know that, for instance, Wukong doesn’t really fit most of these points, but I would be willing to ignore that if the game is particularly good. Feel free to suggest other games that fit though! PC or PS5.

Looking for games that have at least 3 out of 4 of these qualities.

Bonus points for 4 out of 4 suggestions.

Examples: Titanfall 2, Jak 3.

Platform: PC (can run anything), all PlayStation consoles, all Xbox consoles, all Nintendo consoles.

Time period: Any.

Preferred genres: Action adventure, first person shooters, third person shooters, melee combat, soulslikes, platformers.

I'm looking for a good open world game that has lots of freedom. More specifically, I want a large map with lots to explore with many distinct areas, tons of NPC's and side-questing, just tons of stuff to do that isn't necessary for progression, and would prefer it to have a character creator rather than present characters (although this one isn't completely necessary). I'm willing to take any genre (including sandboxes) and any setting, modern or ancient, fantasy or realistic.

I've already played through Elden Ring, and I'd say that's about what I'm looking for (thought it may have set the bar too high for me as far as quality goes), and I've also played through Subnautica, own Hogwarts Legacy and Skyrim as well, but haven't played those as much since they didn't quite click with me (tell me if I'm missing out though).

edit: Should also mention I only have 16gb ram, and intel i3 10100f, and a GTX 1660 super. I'm running on a fairly budget PC, so a few newer games might not be able to run on my PC, so keep that in mind with the recommendations.

Back in the day, we used to play a lot of Call of Duty on PS3. Soon, we’ll be spending a few days together to celebrate the fact that one of us is getting married and having a child. We want to spend a night playing like we used to, and I’m in charge of organizing it. But I know nothing about consoles since I’m a PC player. I thought I could just use my PC on the TV and buy four Xbox controllers, but COD doesn’t support couch co-op for four players. So I started looking for a used Xbox Series X with the idea of playing BO3. But now I understand that BO3 looks blurry on Xbox, and a PS5 would be a better option. We’ll play on LG b4 55" TV.

Please help me make the right choice for me and my friends.

I've been debating which of these games to play next.

I have played Witcher 3 and really liked it. I have played it multiple times. I've been really excited for Witcher 4 and realized I never played 1-2. I know they're old but I usually don't mind it as long as the game has good writing and few bugs.

I saw a trailer for Avowed and I thought about playing Pillars again. It's been on my radar but never really felt like playing it until now. I didn't really like Outer Worlds (same studio i believe) bc I thought it was boring and bounced off after a few hours, so wondered if I'd like PoE's writing. I think I played a little of Deadfire when I had gamepass and also stopped playing near the first town. Willing to give it a second chance since a lot of ppl swear by it.

It's not like it would be the first time I like something after pushing through. It took me three times before I got into Pathfinder: WOTR which brings me to... Rogue Trader!

I'm wrapping up my first Pathfinder: WOTR playthrough and I really enjoyed it. It made me look into other Owlcat games and I got interested in Rogue Trader. I don't know anything about Warhammer though, but I do like Sci Fi. I'm playing WOTR on story mode bc the character building confused me. Another thing I thought was tedious in WOTR is the crusade management mode and I also felt that there was a lot of filler enemy fights around the map. I stuck around bc I really liked the mythic paths and the companions were interesting. I hoped Rogue Trader would be like WOTR but Sci Fi and less of the things I disliked.

Hey all, I just bought myself a Thrustmaster HOTAS to play Elite Dangerous and I really want to try some other flight/space sims, or other games that would work well with that controller. I'm looking at Ace Combat 7 (admittedly arcadey, but still looks fun), and I'm open to just about any recommendation. What are some others that you would recommend?

Hello, I have been playing marvel rivals and rebirth resurgence alot with my friends, and a bit of cupheads dlc. Because of the competitive nature of these games, it feels tiring and to be honest I'm looking to learn and try something new like a fantasy rpg or rpg of some kind like baldurs gate 3. (which I've heard alot of good things about), or Path of Exile 2 (which I have also heard good things about).

I guess I'm just craving something I can sink time into, learn mechanics and stuff upgrade my character and what not. I have played the arkham games, I 100% them and the first two spiderman games, so I'm used to more free flow combat style. That's why I'm not sure about buying baldurs gate 3 it looks like fun but when I see the combat is turn based I'm unsure if it's something I'd really invest time into, on the other hand I don't know much about path of exile 2 to be honest but I'm leaning more to that.

I have never played a Diablo game before, but I refuse to play Diablo 4 because of what ive seen and heard. That being said, I have tried elden ring, I have ghost of tsushima and jedi survivor, waiting to be finished but they don't run well on my system and I'm holding back on upgrading my rig because I'm putting any money I can to pay off my car. So until then I think something less graphically demanding would be fine.

Leave suggestions below please

Hi all, I'm looking for some games to play. I'm willing to try anything but keep these factors in mind.

1. I don't really like souls games. Even though I could just mod the game to make it easier, I simply don't have the time to spend hours on a boss.

2. No horror games. I am fine with good story games with slight horror elements like TLOU but not games like Alan Wake 2 which is more DRIVEN by horror.

3. I prefer modern games. If there are some really good games that are older, Id be happy to try them, I simply prefer the modern graphics of games released 2015+

I have Completed the following games

• GOW 2018

• Ghost of Tsushima

• GOW Ragnarök + Valhalla DLC

• Astro Bot

• Assassins creed odyssey

• GTA V

• Currently playing through RDR2

It can also be a game on Nintendo Ps Xbox pc, even steam VR games.

Both the complete edition and deluxe edition of Dragons Dogma 2, and Final Fantasy 16 are on sale for 50 USD on the PlayStation store. I have an interest in both for a while and have been debating back and forth but I can’t decide between the two.

The combat looks awesome in DD2 and I loved the first one, but FF16 also looks great. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I really tend to enjoy RPGs, but I do NOT like being frustrated, hence the need for an easy combat system. First-person games annoy the hell out of me.

I love:

• the Fable games
• Divinity Original Sin 2
• Reckoning
• Sea of Stars
• Trials of Mana
• Ni No Kuni (ONLY the 1st one)
• Immortals: Fenyx Rising
• the Ori games (platformers, but great art and stories)
• Earthlock
• Kena: Bridge of Spirits (this one had boss fights a bit too hard though, husband had to help)

I don't like games where you just wander around doing chill stuff, so I need a sweet spot of engaging but not too multi-button-combo or quick-decision-making heavy.

I have not played BG3 yet, but can't play on my own; that's a joint venture with my husband when we're both available.

Any other recs?

I haven’t really played games like these two, but I really want to get into this sort of visual novel where you can make choices. I’m a massive fan of story rich/text heavy RPG’s where you make choices like BG3, Dragon Age, Mass Effect etc. I’ve also started reading books when I couldn’t for ages and I thought I wanted to try in the middle! Just finished Disco Elysium and loved it too.

I don’t want to get both just in case I don’t like this genre, but to start off which would be better to start off and why, or what is the biggest difference between them both? I did my researched and I’ve narrowed it down to those two out of like 20 games. Thank you!

Some of my favorite games that I have played include Zelda Tears of the Kingdom and Breath of the Wild, all the Sims games, Zoo Tycoon, Diver Dave, 07 Runescape, Roller Coaster Tycoon, and Pikman 3 on Switch. I like "pretty" games where they are set in nice settings, as in not in dark dungeons, and I hate jump scares. I am a fan of simulation games as well as management games. Not a fan of shooting games or games that need lots of complicated battles to progress. I am looking for this to play on my Mac using Steam. What other games might I enjoy?

Hi!

I’m trying to decide between Cyberpunk 2077 with the Phantom Liberty DLC or waiting for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II. I love open-world story-driven games like Red Dead Redemption 2, The Witcher 3, and Fallout 4, especially when they have great side missions. I know Kingdom Come: Deliverance II isn’t out yet, but since I have a limited budget, I want to make the best choice. If you’ve played Kingdom Come: Deliverance I, I’d love to hear your thoughts on whether the sequel is worth waiting for. Is Cyberpunk 2077 with Phantom Liberty a better option right now, or should I hold out for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II?

I am also very interested in other suggestions for games!

(I play on ps5)

Thanks!

I had this idea for a hell drivers 2/hell let loose game, where two online teams compete for control of territories on a live interactive map. This where hell divers two's concept kicks in as planets are taken by the community in real time. However, instead of AI, opposing forces are other players fighting to defend their lands or take new ones. This also being set in our real world. The maps themselves being real countries with cities and such. One team acting as insurgent forces and the other the National army. Not quite sure where to start development wise for something like this. Any thoughts?

Disclaimer: I love sandbox games, sci fi, and space.

When I opened Steam the promo sale for it just showed up. I think it was around $12(?)

I was ready to buy it, but I remembered I still have games to complete on my backlog. Is No Man's Sky good enough to bypass that list? Like, is the wow factor worth playing it first over the games that are currently on my lineup?

Just for reference, my backlog consists of:

• Cyberpunk 2077 (Completionist run so not really my first playthrough)
• Red Dead Redemption 2 Low Honour (again not my first run)
• Witcher 3
• Horizon Zero Dawn NG+
• Horizon Forbidden West NG+
• Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice
• Hellblade 2: Senua's Saga
• Borderlands series (1,2,3 Pre Sequel)
• Tiny Tina's Wonderland
• Sleeping Dogs
• Returnal
• Mass Effect Legendary Edition

I don't have the ability to use a driving wheel, but I still want a racing game that has good adapted triggers for the PS5 controller, I'm looking for something that i can play offline for the most part, here is the racing games I've played in the past and enjoyed, Need for speed shift, need for speed unleashed 2, Grid 2 (all of these was on the PS3 and I loved them all) especially Grid 2 for how realistic the cars felt for the movement and control. is there anything similar to that but for PS5? again I would appreciate having the ability to play offline for the most part if possible.

Hi, I'm looking for 100 hours + game which have complex systems and gameplay. I loved satisfactory and factorio. I also love civilization 4 as strategy but 6 and 5 was not for me. I love X Com games because of complex tactics and posibility to level up soldiers. My favourite games allow me to analyze complex gameplay systems, looking at some statistics, taking a risk in action and learning a lot by making mistakes. I would like to play games in which I have to think a lot but there is no high curve of learning at beginnnig. I would like to play games which can be demanding at some point and they are not finishing themselves without player participation. What's yours recomnendations?

I just built my first ever PC and basically spared no expense. I am looking for something to really sink my teeth into. Something that will really suck me in. I have been looking at games like Helldivers, no man’s sky, and Sea of Thieves as potential games to play. However, I don’t really have a friend group to play any of these games with sadly so I’m weary to jump into any of them. Any recommendations for a game that will just pull me in? There’s no better feeling than a game that is so good you are thinking about 24/7. Some games that have done that to me: Elden Ring, Witcher 3, ME trilogy, and going way back was destiny 2. Kinda feeling in the mood for something akin to destiny but I’m obviously not playing that game (lol).

I’m looking for a survival game with that open world aspect, i also really enjoy competitive games and rust is a lot more than dayz it seems. However dayz seems a lot more complex, realistic and with much more to do, which i like, but i heard pvp is rare and the rust community seems like 2x bigger.

I’m also not able to play the game 6 hours everyday like some people say you should on rust, i’d be playing around 2-3 hours 4-5x a week.

Let me explain. Reading the book right now and I love it. I wish I could play an open-world game where I’m running away from someone(s) who are hunting me. They are tracking me while I have my own objective and means of survival. Interesting in gunplay and vehicles if possible. What games are like this? Play as the hunter or be hunted by a friend or friends — Like Moss and Chigurh.

I'm looking to get back into PvP FPS games, but pretty much everything I see on Steam which has been released in the past few years (2020 onward) is either known to be completely full of cheaters, or has ridiculous amounts of in-app purchases and paywalls.

Preferably games on Steam.

Even old games which still have players is fine.

I'm in Oceania so I would need servers around my region, or west coast US.

I personally enjoy open world RPGs, when at the same time I really enjoy pokemon. I am torn between the two after I completed both Fallout NV and pokemon sword. What I most like about these games is that their open world and that really draws me in. My favorite part of Fallout NV was the different endings and factions you could join and for Pokemon it's definitely the battles.

Thanks for the help!

I am basically looking for a game that is very similar to Destiny 2 in many aspects. From D2, I love the fairly simple yet rewarding items and cosmetics grind, the levelling system (power grind), and the multiplayer aspects like instanced areas and fireteams.

I am however looking for a game that runs my MacBook Air M2. As such I don't care for 3D or shooters, more just the aspects of D2 I've mentioned above.

I have played RDR2 and cyberpunk enough to the point that I am looking for something new. I mention those games because they are really the only two that I have played that made me re-fall in love with gaming (I’ve always loved it but you know what I mean). My gut is leaning toward Witcher 3 since I have never played but I am open for new suggestions…… but boy Cyberpunk really might be the goat

I'm pretty much set on buying Balatro, so my question isn't whether I should buy it, but rather where I should buy it - on my PS5 or on Steam. I kinda feel like it would be a nice game to have on the go with me on my laptop, but to be honest, I do almost all of my gaming on my PS5, so at the same time getting it elsewhere doesn’t quite make sense to me.

Hey all, I'm looking for a space sim kinda game,I don't know if this kind exists but worth a shot, games for PC without a monthly subscription please..

Pilot a space ship (not BE a spaceship) in first person. Might seem kinda boring but I want to be able to kinda fly in real time? Be able to sit back and pilot around? Be able to fly to asteroids to do mining, or accept shipping contracts and haul freight and what not?

Hopefully a newer game? Decent graphics to be able to enjoy the view and see the inside of a cockpit or pilots seat...

Any recommendations would be amazing thank you!
