Lots of options already shared it so I am just gonna say that I find easier to play older games that I have already played/beaten.

Personal examples:

Super Mario 64 and Toy Story 2.

The huge benefit of older games is that they are just quick and play, no updates no DLCs just fire it up and play, if emulated you even got save states and all those thingys.

This is a dangerous thing to me though, as it discourages me to try out new games, yeah, but after a tiring day I find myself more comfortable getting into these kinds of games than other options.

Funny that you mentioned Vampire Survivors as I was planning to get it for Android haha.

Depending on what you mean by casual, I consider Dead Cells a casual game, because whenever I’m bored I pick it up and play for a while, but it’s one of the hardest games I’ve played, however because it’s rogue like it doesn’t matter if you die a lot. Another similar example would be Factorio with enemies turned off, just go there, fix something, add something new and quit the game near the next thing you want to do so you remember it next time.

If you’re looking for a more traditional definition of casual games I tend to play those in the phone, I really like mini metro and super hexagon (although again, this one might not fit your definition of casual)

First thing’s first: you’re allowed to play on easy mode if you want. Took me too long to realize this.

Emulators let you save anywhere, so if you wanna play Crono Trigger or Donkey Kong Country, go for it!

Holocure is a free bullet heaven with lots of characters to unlock. Recommend boosting your coins first.

Terra Nil (it’s like an anti Sim City) is only as stressful as you make it. Clean the planet and max out the flora and fauna, or just vibe. It even has an appreciation option once you’ve cleansed the area, zooming in to certain sections and letting you see the animals.

Thats just code for “I am jealous that your hobby makes you happy.”

That’s a massive red flag.

peopleproblems,

Wait hold on

That makes too much sense get out of here

Zink,

And when you have that miserable attitude long enough, it starts to feel wrong when your OWN hobbies or activities make you happy.

It sounds simple, but that shit runs deep when you’re raised in it.

I don’t know about that, there are other hobbies people participate in that women find “attractive”. So far my hobbies of video games and programming have scared away any partners…

I play games too much, so I’ll categorise them:

New ones I’ve finished and absolutely loved: Dragon Age: The Veilguard and Star Wars: Outlaws

Not new ones that I’m currently playing and really like so far: Days Gone and Mad Max

Not new ones that I’m currently playing that I’m unsure if I like, be it because of the game itself or technical issues: Enshrouded, Horizon Forbidden West, and Satisfactory

Ones I’ve played for some time and won’t stop playing anytime soon (and obviously love): Warframe and Minecraft

TachyonTele,

Mad Max is fun. But it never holds my interest for long.

Valencia,

What’d you like about veilguard? Were you a big fan of the series before? I want to buy it but the changes from the first one put a pretty bad taste in my mouth.

CitizenKong,

Not OP, but it’s a very good game that gets better the longer you play it. It more like Mass Effect than Dragon Age in many ways though, but the final stretch especially was almost on the same level as the suicide mission of ME2 IMO. Characters and gameplay are great, dialogue and level design could have been better and the only element that really sucked for me are the godawful outfits and weapons and lack of variation thereof.

Dredge has been one of my favourites. Just be aware that the game starts harder than when it ends.

I tried playing it last night, and I really reaaaaally wanted to play through it. It’s really fun and original, but boy, does it stir up some primal fear in me when the fog rolled in. Also, it doesn’t help that murky water and things in said water just absolutely fuck me up. So, needless to say, I can’t play it unless I have people around me because my anxiety goes from 0 when I’m fishing and 100 when it gets spooky.

Slice and dice, a rogurlite played with dice. Huge amount of modes like “demo mode” that makes each run like 40% shorter.
Not only can a run go by pretty fast they last roughly as long as a vs run.

I mean cyberpunk2077 you can by and large pause at any time and you can generally save but there are sometimes where it tells you saving is not allowed. So there are certain points in the story where you can be playing for awhile without a save but its not a super lot. Can be sorta annoying though when you get to them though. Still its not much of the game. Its been awhile but I thought harry potter allowed pausing. Don't recall it putting me in a difficult position where I could not put it down. Technically elden ring has a hidden pause if you go into a menu in a menu. There are youtube videos on it. Its stressful as heck though as a game. If you quite you are by and large fine to but any enemy that is damage will be at full health when you get back but dead ones will stay dead. Its really not much of an issue except for bosses. I think baldurs gate 3 and starfield allow saving pretty much at any time as well and pause, again its been awhile.

…Says the chick who has made a total of $3,950 worth of microtransactions in “Fashion Gacha Glowup Idol Makeover Dressup Saga Deluxe 3.”

“But that’s different!”

“made”? You mean spent, right…?

    A friend of mine bought an Aliexpress grade Chinese stereo for his car and I swear it makes the exact same cursor movement noise every time you press one of its buttons.

    We’re still deeply amused by this and he’s had it for years.

    You should probably try Golden Sun too. I recently repaired my GBA SP and damn, it brings me back to my childhood. 😆

    HEXN3T,

    I did, during my “JRPGapalooza”, which I’ve yet to continue. I put it off until later. I carry the weight of a massive backlog of games on my shoulders.
