The games take place after the books, so it’s green field. Although it sounds like I canonizes the ending of witcher 3, (but honestly there was only one “correct” ending to the witcher 3 unless you’re a heartless bastard)
No matter how much I’ve played it, I don’t think I’ve ever got past half of the campaign of Sacred.
Now playing Elden Ring and even if I’m just starting out I’m constantly surprised by the amount of stuff in the world, most of which I only discovered the second or third time I visited the area it’s in.

IMO your selections are a weird fit for the term “chill” as they seem to be more action games but the above should have a similar “intense at times, with breaks” vibe i get from yours.
Available on PC, Steam (if you’re willing to pay), and android (through F-droid, not sure about play store or any of the others):
Shattered Pixel Dungeon. Run though randomly generated dungeon floors. Every 5th floor, fight a boss. I suck at it, so I’ve only gotten past the 2nd boss once, but that’s because I suck. Currently 5 different classes with a 6th in development (unless I’m wrong and it’s already out), each playing differently for the most part. You’ve got a warrior, rogue, huntress, mage, and duelist, with all but warrior being locked until you do easy enough requirements to unlock them for subsequent runs.
Can pause, exit, and come back to a run whenever during a run.
Available on PC and android (both F-droid and play store);
SuperTuxKart. Cart racer with a lot of fan made content like maps and carts. Has varying difficulties, but the lower the difficulty the lower the max speed in a race, if that matters to anyone else besides me. Not exactly full-on single-player since there is the option of online play, either against friends or random players if you find an open lobby.
Can pause pretty much any time offline but backing out makes you have to restart a race from the beginning. Same thing applies to the multi-race cup things.
I didn’t check out what the news about it was but they announced at least half a decade ago that Geralt’s story was over and if they’re creating another Witcher game, it’s going to be Ciri
So I’m gonna take a wild guess and say that Cirilla, daughter of the emperor, the girl with elder blood, groomed by the Witchers to become one of them… MIGHT just be the next protagonist.
And I’m all for it. She’s the future, Geralt is the past. I love Geralt, but he’s so old and broken by the end of 3, it’s not even funny anymore. They could do prequel games with him or something, but not a sequel to 3 at this point.
Jumping off Vampire Survivor I highly recommend Halls of Torment! Similar vibe, easier, very satisfying. The aesthetic is very similar to Diablo 1 but with vampire survivor gameplay. I’m in love with it
