I already own the game so this is more of a reccomendation.
Civ6 is only £5 right now and all the dlc only costs £20 in the bundle. It’s an easy game to reccomend for anyone who is even a little interested in strategy games.
Dont starve together is a good one like another commenter said, I don’t know if it’s couch co-op but when you buy it on steam, you get a free second copy to give to your friend you’re playing with (at least when I bought it)
Just started playing cities: skylines 2 (with gamepass, I didn’t preorder) and I think it’s good. The performance, while bad, isn’t as bad as people are saying. I’m on low settings + 1080p with a gtx 1650 super, and a ryzen 7 5700x and I get around 20-30 frames, which is bad but not unplayable and there will be mods that improve this.
It’s not going to be worse than KSP2. KSP2 launched with game breaking bugs and all of the new features missing (and some of the old ones) as well as bad performance on ALL graphic settings no matter the specs. CS2 has features that differ it from the first game and the performance issues (allegedly) can be fixed by turning settings down (unlike KSP2). Both games launched (or will launch) without modding support which is really bad for both games.
I meant that this is something that not many other companies would say. And it doesn’t matter if it’s the law, big companies still prevent it from happening.
In anno 1800 (which is the only game I’ve played with denuvo) it still needs to have a connection to the ubisoft servers to run, so live service isn’t just about dodging 3rd party drm
