Turbo Overkill is sort of Duke Nukem/Quake strafe boomer shooter with modern schmovement mechanics like Ultrakill.
Also another vote for Prodeus. It’s basically a Brutal Doom clone. It’s messy and gory and just a tone of mindless fun.
I’m playing Prey right now and it’s also a ton of fun trying to figure out ways to do stuff instead of running in all guns a-blazing. Still trying to figure out how stealth really works mechanically.
So maybe don’t take this as a real suggestion because it doesn’t make sense to be a game with lots of replayability, but I’ve replayed the everything shit out of FF8. I don’t think it’s because of the game. It’s because of me. Maybe it might do the same for you?
My first reaction on seeing the title was to name a games that just have fun core mechanics where replaying the game is basically just doing more of the same fun thing, so ULTRAKILL means I’m on the right track.
Prodeus is a pretty good doom clone. Not as in-depth as ULTRAKILL, but nonetheless has fun weapons and your basic doom (eternal) movement/mechanics. Blasting your way through enemies is as fun on the first level as the last. And the Quake games hold up extremely well, and the mechanics are so simple and powerful that you can really have fun replaying and getting better.
Stealth games are also very fun for this. The Splinter Cell series (especially Chaos Theory) are very fun to try to perfect/improve on. Dishonored and Thief as others have mentioned. And Midnight Club is the best racing series for this. You’ll have to emulate it, but it’s worth it. Completely open-world, and learning the city layout over time is very satisfying.
Sniper Elite 4/5 are my favorite stealth game. Huge maps with a lot of ways to approach combat, the way they use noise works really well, and who doesn’t like exploding a grenade on someone’s chest into a truck engine to disable that too?
Hitman (I honestly have no clue what they’re calling it now; it was 3 when I bought it) also has a passable rogue-lite mode now. The missions don’t have the same hand crafted polish as the real missions, but you start light and earn your way up to gear, with varied challenges to unlock currency, and potentially alert future targets on future maps if you’re sloppy. If you like stealth, hitman’s brand is a little different, but it’s solid overall.
I’ve been recently playing the “so called” sequel to ftl, ftl multiverse. I have gotten the standard and old secret endings, but there are hints of a third even harder to find ending.
Generally games with random elements are considered to be good for dumping tons of hours into. So games with randomly generated worlds like Minecraft, roguelikes, strategy games that are always variant just because of the nature of AI actions always being a little randomized, and other stuff like that. So maybe like Minecraft, Dwarf Fortress, Crusader Kings 2 or 3 as like a basic list. But really the game that’s going to be the most replayable is the one you don’t get tired of. I’ve beaten Thief: The Dark Project hundreds of times and that game is a relatively simple level-based stealth game with no random elements and not even especially huge levels.
One I haven’t seen mentioned (at a glance at least) is Noita.
Getting the “false ending” is achievable with some effort, but I dare you to actually finish the game. And as far as replayability, you’ll be hard pressed to have two runs that go the same. The amount of Butterfly Effect in this game from all the combinations and systems is straight up insane.
I have played the absolute shit out of Doom as well, basically all the official WADs, Master Levels, Sigil, you name it. I have tried myhouse.wad, but i was too big of a dum-dum to reach any of the secrets so I just quit and watched some youtube videos on it.
Was looking for this. The crossover randomiser of Link to the Past and Super Metroid is a masterpiece, and if you like one or both of the games it provides you with a new way to have the complete the game every time you play it.
Add in the different flavours like entrance randomiser (where not only are the items shuffled but the doors you enter don’t go where they normally go), or keysanity (where keys don’t stay in their dungeons and can instead be anywhere) and it turns what was already a great SNES area game into something you can play over and over again.
I feel like the best options would be strategy such as CK3 as the other commenter mentioned or endless sandbox games like Minecraft and Euro/American Truck Simulator. X4 Foundations is a pretty fun space sim, and there are the Bethesda games with mods, Skyrim and Fallout 4 have some pretty cool mods and eventually Starfield too.
