If you like factory designing games, I can recommend anything by Zachtronics.

They’re all esoteric programming/automation type puzzle games, and they all have their own unique solitaire games built-in for whenever you get tired of the main game.

My personal favourites are SpaceChem - scifi molecule factories - and Opus Magnum - steampunk alchemical molecule factories. Something about the molecules just works for me, don’t know why. Plus the Opus Magnum solitaire game is really unique and fun, and it has a user-made level feature, so you can keep playing.

Last Call BBS is a collection of minigames they made as their final release before shutting up shop, so it’s a lot more casual than the others, but a lot of fun.

I can appreciate the personal part you added regarding losing faith. I left catholicism in my teens. Too many inconsistencies, too much abuse of power. It started by questioning how multiple christianities could have such different rules, followed by learning how most religion is abrahamic and even more diverse in interpretation, to finally saying fuck all this.

I got FC5 in 2020 and it became hard to stomach. It felt like a real potential reality of the US that year. Cults, vehement religious figures, gun fetish, and a classic Americana setting. The prior titles were all far away, imaginary lands offering even a small degree of dissociation. FC5 was just home. I’d relate it to Harry Potter villains in the sense that yeah, of course we know Voldemort is evil, but Umbridge is the most hated character. Not because she’s worse, but because we know a real-life Umbridge personally.

FC6 hit me kinda hard in a similar way. I got into it about a year ago, not long after the israel/Palestine conflict flared up. There’s a ton of genocidal themes there.

Content Warning is easy to compare to Lethal Company. I want to say it’s better but your mileage may vary.

8 weeks into my Witcher 3 replay on the deck. Finished the campaign and well into Hearts of stone. Looking forward to the lush second DLC.

Also played the Holy Gosh Darn, really funny game, and not to repetitive time loop gameplay.

Crytek, meanwhile, made a deal with EA to develop a whole new game called Crysis, which would become famous for having realistic physics rendering and graphics far beyond consumer PCs’ capabilities. Crysis would become the benchmark for high-end computers for many years afterward.

“but can it run crysis” is ALSO a condemnation of the games sloppy coding. and you can see they’ve proudly continued this lack of quality coding in their current GaaS game, hunt showdown. where you have bugs that i’ve personally never seen in other games.

I think I’ll be picking up this game after reading this. Thank you for sharing your experience.

I’ve always been interested in this game but I had played Far Cry 2, I believe, and remember feeling it was just a chore going through the latter half of the game, so I was turned off of Far cry for a while.

Have you tried Against the Storm (based on your mentioning of RTS style games)

Check out Dome Keeper. Mine resources to buy upgrades and protect your dome from waves of aliens. There are lots of game modes and modifiers to get different experiences each run.

Love this post style, you did a lot of work!

also man that selaco box is so pretty. There’s something about hoarding pretty little boxes that I just want to do.

Too lazy to check all responses but if you want a nice resource building game then Timberborn could be your jam.

I really liked it, played it a lot, but now I don’t feel like playing it anymore.

nevetsg,

I feel that. I gave it a 6month break and went back for a new map. Some people like to re-engineer the entire map. I like the challenge of creating a thriving society and then get bored of them. The new sluse gates allow us to automate the water to the point where they are self sufficient.

The Rock of Ages trilogy is fun

Expedition 33 is a turn based rpg with some slight action elements. Just came out to glowing reviews and might be worth checking out.

Story might not be to your liking though.

If you’re up for ARPGs, something like Titan Quest or Grim Dawn have many hours worth of gameplay.

Worth looking at as well is anything in the Monster Hunter series. World and Rise are both amazing along with their expansions and Wilds just recently released.

All of my recommendations are long-term games with many hours worth of playtime.

Thanks will look into them!
