Pathologic 2! It’s so good! And the next one is coming out next year so it’s a great time to become obsessed with Pathologic!

Kerbal Space Program
Am happy to concede that I’m just a dumb dumb, but to say that I was confused by both what to do and how to do it would be a wild understatement.
OG Kerbal Space Program is the best. The sequel, Kerbal Space Program 2, had a lot of missing features from the original KSP, and it is still in Early Access. The developer, Intercept Games, was also closed by Take-Two Interactive, and this game has not had any major update in months. It is clear that Take-Two has completely abandoned KSP 2, and it is still on sale. But it might not be for much longer, because it is literally on life support at this point, only getting patches and bug fixes.
Wouldn’t be surprised if Kerbal Space Program 2 ends up getting delisted at some point in the future.
Stardew Valley.
Its revolver has continuously released huge updates for free and has commuted to never charging for dlc.
The games mechanics are pretty great and nothing in the game requires too much grinding to get.
Even when you “finish” the game, there are still things to do and starting a new files is always fun.
The characters are all great and have unique personalities. It really makes you feel like you are part of the town.
My wife and I have over 400 hours on a single file. It’s also enjoyable starting a new file. I like to challenge myself to see how quickly I can do certain objectives in the game.
It’s also decently cheap and has a huge community behind it.
To anyone who hasn’t played this yet, if you buy it on console or mobile, the huge 1.6 patch is set to release November 4th.
From what I have seen, if you can play it on PC, do it, as you can get all kinds of mods and stuff that aren’t available on console. I played it on Switch years ago and then would see youtube videos of people playing the PC version and it looked like a different game altogether.
I bought it some time ago but I kind not got into it, and it saddens me because I only hear good things about it.
Any advice?
Well not every game is for everybody. This just might not be for you.
Without knowing you better, I’d advise things like.
-
take it slow, there is no rush to do anything.
-
it’s ok to sleep early if you can think of something to do.
-
you can really lose in this game.
-
The game is just perfect. Many farms were made and many hours spent.
My only complaint is that there isn’t more of the game 😂
Luckily mods solve this.

factorio
the dedication of the dev is perceptible, almost unlimited replay value and the will release a major extension in 9 days that looks wonderful.
Could you explain the appeal to someone who hasnever played anything similar? I played RCT3, but I don’t know how comparable that is. It just seems like a really finnicky and tedious game of micromanagement.
I haven’t played RCT so not sure how I compares.
But Factorio is first of, a sandbox game. You can build however you want in your own tempo. Not sure what you mean by finicky?
But I don’t think it’s tedious micromanagement at all. it feels super good when you build something new and it works. And there is so many technologies and it’s jus fun exploring how everything works together and coming up with new designs!
There is also enemies, but can be turned off if you just want to focus on building a Factory. I mostly play with them, building up defences and killboxes and making automated train supply that comes with ammo, wall, etc.
It has a demo you can try out. It’s scenarios so you try out different base mechanics in the game. But the actual game is a sandbox game.
I came here to say this. I’ve been gaming since the early 80s. Factorio is top 5 for me.
What? I thought the space DLC was months away!
It’s happening!

Outer Wilds.
If you like space games and puzzle games (in the sense that you need to piece together the situation you’re in), this is a great choice.
Highly recommend not looking anything up before you play.
I love puzzle games and was so excited to play it, especially after friends that I value the opinion about games claimed it was the best game they’ve ever played.
I’ve tried, but it didn’t grip me and I gave up after 2 days of trying to get into it.
Maybe one day when the universe thinks it’s the right time for me.
Just did the dlc for outer wilds recently. It was refreshing how it added to the story without detracting from the main game but It was pretty damn scary for me, a person who doesn’t play horror games. I still think it’s worth it. Somewhat odd choice for the dlc when the main game was mainly an archaeological space puzzle but they made it work.
The coolest thing when you start the DLC is that you realize that this whole thing has just been out there the entire time you’ve been playing and you didn’t know it. Then you finally get there and you can play the entire DLC while the rest of the game keeps going without you.
There could be hundreds that I post here, but going to just say the ones I go back to again and again.
Satisfactory, The Planet Crafter, Stardew Valley, Death Stranding, Kerbal Space Program, Cities Skyline, Cyberpunk 2077, Stray, Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2, Duke Nukem 3D, Doom 1 & 2, Decent, and of course Skyeim.
Ahh Skyeim
Half life, all of them, in order
There’s only 2 right? Exculding That VR version
There are two expansions for the first one, Opposing Force and Blue Shift. These explore the same events, from the points of view of different characters.
After the second one there are also the two shorter, stand alone, stories, Episode One and Episode two. These continue the story from the point of view of the protagonist.
None
Lmao I’m pretty sure you’re the only downvoted comment here and rightfully so.
If I had my way every domicile in human history would have one of these and a pair of decks.
What are your favorite games to play?
I used to love president as a kid, now I play it a lot in clubhouse games on the switch. I know a few friends who play spades.
Subnautica
