Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
For me, that would be the 3D Mario games (or any Mario game, really).
I have over 70 hours logged into Super Mario 3D-Stars, and that’s just the newer way I’ve played these games.
Red Dead Redemption 2, Fallout 4, the BioShock series
Looking at my steam hours Stellaris and Skyrim
I want to get into Stellaris but everytime I start I realize I'll have to play 1000 hours before I understand the basics and close the game.
The basics are really as simple as the 3 point supply chains in Settlers 1, 30 years ago. Also you can try on easiest difficulty level and set up something like tutorial galaxy with almost no enemies to learn.
I can play Control over and over again.
Sorry to be a soulsborne weeb but I have something like 1500 hours in bloodborne and I still pick it up from time to time

One of my favorites is Invisible Inc. Top down tactical game but focused on stealth instead of combat. Its a cyberpunk setting with a stylized art style. You run a corporate espionage outfit, that's just been doublcrossed and exposed. Your supercomputer only has a few days worth of juice so you've got to a few days to get to the bottom of it and rebuild your agency enough to survive.
The levels are procedurally generated and sunce each campaign is time limited you really have to work with what you're able to find each run. You choose two agents to start and can find up to two more to round out your group as you go. They all have different abilities and synergies with each other so lots of combos to explore.
There's also an endless mode thats fun as well, and is different than the campaign since you don't have a time limit. You have time optimize your agents and have time to get your ideal gear loadouts. They also throw more security measures at you as the days progress.
Its super well balanced, and i can't recommend it enough
Besides what people have mentioned, you also have simulator type games like SimCity. Though with SimCity, I got bored of the "new" SimCity they released.... in 2013. Either play something like SimCity 4000, or try Cities Skylines.
UT99 so shoot me lol
