Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery. This game is fairly old now (like maybe 15 years) and I’ve only played it once and it took like 4 hours of total playtime, but it remains among the most memorable games I’ve witnessed. I HIGHLY recommend it.
Yay! Just, please don’t leave it untouched. Mild spoiler, but the game tells you how long you should play each session and the first is 30 minutes. So please give it a 30 minute chance to grab you
One of my all-time favorites. If you don’t like horror games, don’t let that stop you. It’s too important a story to pass up, and worse-case, you can turn off some of the scary elements of the game. It’s really a sci-fi masterpiece first, and a horror game second.
I’m surprised I haven’t seen anyone mention one of my favorites:
Spec Ops: The Line.
The risk with going in blind is that it seems like a generic cover-shooter that doesn’t do everything quite as well as its competitors but it actually works to its advantage once you get into it.
If you haven’t tried it, I highly recommend it, you can usually find it for really cheap.
Well you can’t but it digitally at all anymore and if you do find the disc it’s usually priced as a “retro collectible” so the only reasonable way to get it is via the high seas—which, technically, is “really cheap”
There’s a couple of quests that have a time limit, and it’s easy to not be aware since all the others can be completed whenever. I only knew beforehand because I read about it, and I’m glad I did, because letting them unintentionally expire has really bad outcomes.
Also I got a mod for infinite respecs. Otherwise I would worry about wasting finite consumable points and never spend them.
This is the worst example in this thread. You do not want to launch this game unprepared!
Much better to have an established player with enough resources build and equip your character.
If you put too few points in resources, choose the wrong class or race, or get hit by a random nerf, you’ll be locked out of most of the progression.
There’s no second chances, all you get is one save. And when you quit the game, it bricks your system.
You’d think the game is fun but people on wow are so miserable. They’re always upset, DOTA2 energy tbh kicking each other from groups and harassing each other, hating on their own game
I like sandbox games where you can jump in any time and build further. If you are looking for a time sink like game, I’d recommend, Subnautica, Satisfactory, Factorio. I’d also recommend shorter games where you can just finish it in an evening without big commitment. Or rougelike, rougelite games where you can just finish a run, like Slay the spire, monster train, DCSS.
Lastly you don’t have to play most popular games, it is OK to play old games or lesser known ones. I play time to time HoMM3, might and magic series etc.
