Stardew valley. Sea of stars. Kingdom come 2. The anno series. Metaphor re fantazio. The Case of the golden idol. Baldur’s Gate 1 &2 enhanced. Planescape torment. Against the storm. Star wars Galactic battlegrounds (it’s basically start wars age of empires 2, same engine). Civilization 5 or 6 (I prefer 5 but plenty of people prefer 6, and seems like no one prefers 7). Command and conquer (except 4). Crusader Kings. Europa universalis.

Thanks! Most I already know, I’ll check the rest. Man, do I miss generals zero hour. If only it had a working multi-player, preferably Lan. I’m a China infantry general master. Even with all the fixes people made I constantly get a “game has detected a mismatch”.

zipzoopaboop,

Whenever I read news articles about China I can hear “China will grow larger!”

Great game, I remember really digging the Clayface fight. The little clay enemies went down easy, but there were enough that it felt… mushy(?) getting through them to get at Clayface himself.

I for sure get what you mean. They aren’t spongy and are super satisfying to slice through

The Rock of Ages trilogy is fun

If you like something more complex, Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is pretty good.

I actually like WOTR more in many ways to BG3. Especially when you start getting deeper into it.

BG3 is held back by 5e mechanics a lot unfortunately.

Stellaris is a great realtime 4x strategy game. They have a lot of paid DLC, but you can pick and choose which modules you want. Some are purely cosmetic options while others make gameplay changes, and they go on sale pretty often. Worst comes to worst, you can usually find the DLC on key sites as well for pretty cheap. Paradox also started a subscription based service that gives you access to the DLCs, maybe you can subscribe for a month and try out which DLCs you like.

Project Zomboid is an incredibly hard resource management survival game. It is also very detailed, meaning you need to maintain everything about your character from their hydration, to their weight and fitness. Its a slow burner type game, but when the action picks up, it gets tense. Its also a “forever” game, in that theoretically, if your character never dies, the game never ends. The map is huge, big enough to feel different pretty much every time you play. Its also multiplayer, which is pretty fun.

Farming Simulator can be a fun, chill game to play. Its not as resource management intensive as a game like Project Zomboid, but it can be a good game to relax with.

Ragnarok Online is an older (2003) MMORPG that I recently discovered, and while I am not much of an MMO Enjoyer (I hate the “Disneyland” or theme park feeling most have where I have to wait in line at NPCs and bosses), Ragnarok Online’s player population is consistently low enough to not feel like that while also being high enough to feel like the game is not dead. Just don’t play on the official servers from the Steam client. Use a client that connects to private servers, the economy is really bad in the official servers.

King Arthur: Knights Tale is a pretty fun Strategy RPG. I haven’t been able to play that much of it, but what I have been able to play was pretty fun. Check it out, it might be interesting to you if you liked Divinity and games with combat like XCOM or Fire Emblem.

Rai,

I started Ragnarok Online in 2003 and it is my favorite game of all time. Easily the best sandbox RPG I’ve ever played. I don’t think I’d actually still be here typing this if I never got into it. I met some incredible people. Thank you for mentioning it. I’ve been meaning to try Origins but I haven’t got around to it. I was very sad when they went F2P and added stupid F2P mechanics.

I wish I still had my old account, with my ice pick and my angeling robe on my GC Crusader!

I’m so happy to hear that you, not having nostalgia for it, enjoy it now! Sending love from a very RO oldhead.

Quick edit: to anyone else reading this, RO is a choose your own adventure hat-wearing chatroom and it’s CHARMING. also the soundtrack by SoundTEMP is fucking stellar. “Desert” and “Purity of your Smile” are so good.

Also my unknown-at-the-time queer ass really wanted to hold Moonlight Flower’s hand.

Have you tried persona 5? Great jrpg I think the new clair obscur expedition 33 looks really good for single player too

dwarf fortress?

I’ll go with some classics if you haven’t tried them yet. Planescape: torment is a really engaging crpg if you don’t mind old graphics and dig lots of lore and dialogue. Morrowind if you prefer first person for another old school rpg with lots of stuff to discover in a weird surreal environment. Dwarf fortress sounds like another older one you might be into too.

If you liked BG3 and Divinity 2, I’m obligated to mention the Pathfinder games: Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous. The graphics are a touch simple, but the writing is great and the detailed character building scratches an itch for me. As far as I’m concerned, Owlcat is currently the only real competition Larian has.

Mindustry is basically Factorio with more focus on tower defense.

sugar_in_your_tea,

And there’s Shapez (and Shapez 2) for a more “pure” factory experience (operate on shapes and colors).

Obligatory FromSoft lineup suggestion.

Not my cup of tea. I tried darksouls, sekiro and elden ring but is just not for me. Thanks though :)

ZombiFrancis,

Absolutely. For science and curiosity did you try them using a keyboard+mouse or a controller?

@LordWiggle@lemmy.world avatar

Darksouls and sekiro keyboard and mouse, elden ring controller

snugglesthefalse,

Kbam is very doable for souls games, the earlier pre-ds3 ones are slightly painful but for all of them it’s mainly about getting it set up right

Not much of a gamer these days, but I love this format and what you are doing here. Keep it up!

Do you remember what platform(s) it was on? There are a bunch of games that come to mind but none of them have everything you’ve mentioned.

Oisann,

pc cause i only had pc

Really curious about how well this game does. Being at a significantly lower price point, if it ends up a major GotY contender, that will make waves.

Depending on just how JRPG the game feels, it could also have a big impact there, too. The genre doesn’t have a regular, clear market leader anymore.
