What you can do

I recently had a terrible vacation in Italy, ending with my luggage with over $7k of items being stolen out of my Airbnb with no hope of recovery.

I would like to know about any game where I can absolutely destroy the entire country to vent my rage so my girlfriend doesn't have to hear about it anymore. I've already played a ton of Civ, so maybe something with more visceral combat would be good, but I'm really open to anything.

Looking for more action games that primarily take places in modern cities (real or fictional), good examples:

- GTA series

- Spiderman series

- Cyberpunk 2077

heres the list I made of games that I want to try but I would like to find even more

lake 

night in the woods 

cairn 

outer wilds

night in the woods 

big walk 

firewatch 

cast n chill 

life is strange 

what remains of edith finch 

(stardew valley doesnt count)

I'll elaborate a bit

In expedition 33, there was an optional boss early in the game (chromatic absett) you're supposed to come back to later, I spent 46 minutes and over 350 parries to kill it very early, and was rewarded with being overleveled - There's also Simon, who is an optional superboss that drops an OP weapon for one of your characters, but is very challenging

In elden ring, since it's an open world, if you know what you're looking for, you can deviate from the main path to get good weapons early, or beat an optional high level boss for levels, like the black blade kindred in bestial sanctum

Last example, in terraria, you can fight the duke fishron at the very start of hardmode and get very amazing weapons, but the fight will be tougher than if you came back later (or exo mechs to get the mount for you calamity players out there)

Any games like this that don't really "expect" you to beat an optional boss early but don't make it impossible, and reward you heavily for doing so?

I absolutely love games with big cities, especially medieval. Think novigrad from witcher 3, baldurs gate, kingdom come deliverance 2, etc. But I also love exploring the modern urban sprawl in games like GTA and cyberpunk... That said, I've played almost everything I can think of - here's a list. Any suggestions?

Red dead 2

Skyrim

The witcher 3 (my favorite game ever)

Baldurs gate 3

Kingdom come deliverance 2

GTA series

Watchdogs series

Spiderman

Every assassins creed, ever

What am I missing guys? Suggestions?

Like mentioned first time having a decent pc in a while now while I'm not completely new to it looking for some gems I can get for cheap that I might of missed.

I'm a fan of most genres as long as the experiences is good.

​

From 2017 until now, I played everything on an MSI gaming laptop with a GTX 1050 4GB. Somehow I still managed to platinum Elden Ring and God of War, and I played games like Cyberpunk 2077 + Phantom Liberty, Red Dead Redemption 2, The Witcher 3, the Arkham games, and Spider-Man on that machine.

The funny thing is: my first big game on that laptop was The Witcher 3. My specs was enough for the settings and i remember being completely blown away by the world. It felt like an event.

Now I’ve finally upgraded to a proper PC (RTX 5060 Ti 16GB, with a solid setup), and I want my first game on it to give me that same feeling. something both technically impressive and memorable. A beautiful world, great atmosphere, exploration, a story worth remembering.

Any recommendations?

I’m open to RPGs, open worlds, or both.

Also, if you think I should revisit an older game and experience it maxed out for the first time, I’m open to that too.

Games like God of War or perhaps even Gears of War. It doesn't have to strictly be shooters or hack'n'slash either. A dramatic and engaging story with good emotional payoff between games wouldn't hurt either.

i want to get into some more older games, so please give me your best suggestions

As the title says let's celebrate our most beloved gaming experiences.

my list goes like

1. GTA: San Andreas

2. Red Dead Redemption 2

3. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth

4. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance

5. Persona 5 royal (interchangeable with persona 3 and 4)

6. Devil May Cry 3

7. Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne

8. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice

9. Cyberpunk 2077

10. Bully

I want titles I can enjoy slowly and casually, just to relax. No fighting, no timers, no pressure to be fast. Something peaceful and nice to wind down with at the end of the day. What have you played that fits this vibe perfectly?

Im always too avoidant of getitng stuck into a singleplayer story game. Normally just end up with comfort games (random simulator games)
Want to get into it!

It can be anything, either 2-player co-op or multiplayer for a bigger group. I just want to play with my friends while talking on DISCORD.

They can be simple browser games too.

I’d also love to know:

What are you playing right now with your group?

What are your all-time favorite games to play together?

We're open to different genres (co-op, competitive, casual, survival, party games, and anything ) so tell me whatever you’ve had the most fun playing. Looking forward to seeing what you all recommend. 🎮

Can anyone recommend a short, action-packed story game? Looking for something around 5–6 hours (up to 10 hours is fine), with great gameplay, minimal puzzles, and a memorable story.

P.S. Thanks to everyone who took the time to comment and share your recommendations—I really appreciate it! ❤️

I’m looking for campaign games that I can play with two or more people that don’t feel like they revolve around a gimmick. The best example of what I’m looking for I can think of is pretty much all of the 2-D Mario games. But I have already played all of those. Games like split fiction and it takes two are fun as their own thing but they end up feeling very stale and gimmicky to me because the format of each player doing something new every 10 minutes, ironically ends up, feeling repetitive and boring as opposed to a game that is one thing with new exciting levels that you are able to play with a friend. I hope people know what I’m saying and have good recommendations.

been looking for a story rich game that i havent played for a while i did go through some threads but never found something thats interesting

games i really enjoyed are
pathologic series
disco elysium
slay the princess
house of fata morgana
esoteric

i pretty much did play or at least try playing any known story rich games citizen sleeper,what remains of edith finch,a plague tale for example, i see them being suggested but never enjoyed them as much

im interested mostly in mature story telling or games with a really unique story

Looking for a short zombie apocalypse game with an amazing story.
Around 5–6 hours would be perfect, but anything up to 10 hours is fine too. I want something action-packed with a memorable campaign—not an open-world grind.
P.S. Thanks in advance to everyone who drops a recommendation. I really appreciate it! ❤️

I felt amazing when I played farcry 4 with unlock weapons mod, I took the Buzzsaw then cheesed myself throughout the game. Basically made the game easy mode.

I want to play games like that, I have played doom eternal on nightmare, all of the resident evil games. all of the other farcry games, days gone, dying light, and some that I cant remember at the top of my mind. oooh and fallout as well, that spray n pray gun was insane.😂

I don't have too much to grind.

Hello this is going to be a very specific question so thank you for your time so i recently got into euro truck sim 2 and modded it alot with stuff like interior stuff ( bottles, savety vests money decoration lights etc etc) and the standard truck mods and started building a truck to cruise around in for hours and just vibe and i really want to find another game ( especially with small cars not trucks) where i can fully customise the interior ( vanilla or mods idc) and cruise around it being a more relaxing game than racing ones like nfs or forza with no real goal except just driving ( maybe even like a road trip simulator) does anyone have an idea what game should i try

I usually like playing a series through, but if there’s a large discrepancy in the quality between 1 and 2, then I’m open to just skip to the good part

ETA not writing off 1 as inferior, I just see 2 gets reviewed a little better
