DemonDarkBloodEldenSoulsBorneRing.

Edit: Of those that are on PC, anyway. I got tired of waiting for even an announcement that a BB or Demon Souls port was on its way and got a PS5 just for those two things back in January.

Ultima and Wing Commander, I know I'm showing my age but I guess it's the nostalgia. I still go back and play through them.

Slay the spire. Probably have close to 1000 hours playing it and I'm still addicted.

Fallout 4 ☒️

Prey. I enjoyed it more than Dishonored, it holds a real special place in my heart.

Definitely Civilization in general. There’s a lot of other games I like that are completely different, but year after year I come back to the Civilization series. And even though they peaked at Civ5, it’s still one of the few games I’ll preorder as soon as the next one is available.

Outer Wilds, played it once loved it so much I still get tons of enjoyment by watching others do full play throughs

What's a good playthrough you can recommend?

Skyrim. I've probably topped 1000hours over different platforms since release

There's no game I don't eventually get tired of, but here are three that are fantastic and I can recommend playing for hours and hours:

  • FTL
  • Slay the Spire
  • Darkest Dungeon

All indie titles, none of them new, still fantastic and well worth it if you haven't played any on this list. Also all challenging roguelikes, so be warned. =P

Titanfall 2's campaign. I don't replay a lot of games, but I've played through that one a good few times.

I recently just played through the whole Bioshock series for the first time. Top tier games for sure, and still hold up very well.

Rogue Legacy 2

If you enjoy platformers and roguelikes, you'll like this.

Tunic

A cross between Legend of Zelda exploration and discovery with Souls-like combat. Very tight controls. Fantastic art and soundtrack.

It's 240 comments and no reference to Touhou?????

I play Taisei Project (FOSS bullet-hell shooter) and 3D Pinball: Space Cadet because it was #1 game in the list on Discover app.

Good ol' Skyrim. The possibilities to break the game are nigh endless.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

You know there is a skyrim mods community here on lemmy? Come break the game with us!

Dying Light, absolutely fantastic pakour zombie smasher with one of the best cities in gaming. Bought it originally (on a disc) many years ago and played it so much the disc died and I was inconsolable until Epic gave away the ultimate edition and I was finally able to play The Following DLC.

Now I go and look at Dying Light 2 on Steam and wish my stupid country wasn't so damn expensive, even on sale at 50% off it still costs almost as much as a brand new AAA game in the states. Regional pricing my ass, we always get stung so hard for tech down here.

Subnautica and Enscryption :)

Dwarf Fortress, been playing it off and on for many years now. I happily bought the steam version when it came out!

Cities Skylines for me. It's like building my own little world that I would want to live and work in

Total War Warhammer games. I keep starting new campaigns to play all the races and subfactions.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Crusader Kings, Europe universalis and imperator Rome. I know this is three games but it's the same general idea, as a history fan, this game scratches a very specific itch for me

There's also bannerlord/warband, amazing experience, sorta like ck3 on a micro level

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Heroes of might and magic 3. What a gem! With the HD mod and Horn of the Abyss fanmade expansion (with a new town YARRR!), it's never dull.

I can't wait for the next update of HotA with a second town.
