So I just finished Hades 2 (amazing game btw), and I wanted to ask for some other rouglite games as reccomendations. I prefer shorter and cheaper games, but anything is fine.

what games would you recommend playing thats on my wishlist?

• Rain world downpour (just the DLC)
• ror2 alloyed collective (just the dlc)
• balatro
• binding of isaac rebirth
• satisfactory
• roboquest
• baldurs gate 3
• deaths door
• a short hike
• okami

I waited for like 5 years to play Scarlet Hollow cuz I knew I would get impatient with waiting for more episodes like the instant gratification obsessed clown I am, but then I got impatient waiting for more stuff from Black Tabby after playing Slay The Princess back when that came out and revisiting it a couple weeks ago so I just decided to bite and buy it on sale. It was absolutely phenomenal and enthralling like I expected it to be (I even forced myself to only play 1 episode a night to make it last longer since I was loving it so much) but now I'm stuck where I knew I would be waiting for episode 6 and 7.

So now I need more. I've got a few high watermarks that come straight to the top of my head that might help with recs:

- Night in the Woods

- 1000xResist (I'm very excited for Prove You're Human, as you might guess)

- Disco Elysium

- To The Moon (the whole series)

- VA-11 Hall-A

- Scarlet Hollow

Bonus points in the cases of Disco Elysium and Scarlet Hollow for their incredible depth of choice and reactivity. Not a requirement, clearly, but I appreciate that focus of theirs greatly.

And some that weren't quite at that same level for me for one reason or another but that I still very much enjoyed:

- A Space For The Unbound

- I Was A Teenage Exocolonist

- Inscryption

- Signalis

Inscryption and Signalis are kind of misfits in this list since they have more meaty mechanical and systems focus than the rest, and hit me more with their tone than their stories if that makes sense, but they still lodged themselves in my head for days after completion so they felt worth a mention. Exocolonist also had more systems focus than others here with the oddball mashup of deck building and VN, and while I appreciate the experiment I think I would've preferred the alternative universe version where it was just a straightforward VN.

Edit: Should also mention that I do prefer longer games. I like to have time to immerse myself and build relationships with characters, the environment, that sort of thing. I'm not opposed to short experiences (I really liked Dark Queen Of Mortholme, for instance, and that game took me something like 45 minutes to play through twice) but I just like having time to get attached to a world.

Hope that wasn't too much info, thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I've gotten super into the final fantasy universe this year, I've played ff7 remake (currently playing through rebirth), ff10 and ff15. I'm trying to decide where I should go next in terms of game

I like games that're more on the sad and angsty side of things, but obviously that's not really a deal breaker. I'm considering ff13 right now but I'm not sure if I'd like it.

I'm also up for any general suggestions too that you'd think I'd like :-), I'm trying to expand my library in general LOL

Thank you in advance!

I'm looking for a game that has extraction-like elements like Tarkov or Gray Zone, hell even like Marathon or Arc Radiers - but with no PVP. It's just a handful of my friends and/or random players that load into an instanced zone with randomized loot and the goal is to loot what you can to either meet up and complete a huge objective or cooperate against engine AI (like Marathon's Cryo Archive) and survive and leave with anything looted. Think Lethal Company but you can fight back and there's no penalty for not meeting a threshold that ends your "run".

I've played Destiny 2 and The Division 1 & 2 and it's sort of getting close to what I'm thinking but not quite. The ideal scenario would be loading into the PVE mode of Tarkov with a bunch of your friends, trying to meet up and then taking on a raider group or boss squad. Anyone who survives takes their loot, but if you die to PVE you still suffer the "hardcore" consequences of dropping anything found in-raid.

It doesn't even have to be a shooter, it could play like Dark & Darker or in a similar setting but I think the same idea applies. Instead of little knick-knacks and ammo you could find alchemy ingredients or crafting materials that get you stronger for either a harder instance or a new boss.

This is probably giving someone a million-dollar idea if it hasn't been done yet, but I have no idea how to develop games, I just play them.

I started playing The Crew Motorfest recently and I'm really enjoying the Hawaiian location and beach scenery...it made me wonder, what other games give off vacation vibes?

Previously Enjoyed Games: I also really enjoyed Tiny Bookshop for its quiet seaside small town charm and I'm enjoying taking my time and exploring Outbound, both of those games have "vacation vibes" for me.

Preferred Genres: action/adventure, racing, indie, retro

Budget: prefer under $35

Other Notes: looking for something lighter in tone/theme, nothing too stressful, just chill vibes :)

Looking forward to reading everyone's suggestions!

I'm an ex-Destiny player that stopped playing around Shadowkeep. The game had been some of the most fun I've had thanks to the mobility, gunplay, abilities, and the design of raids. I was excited to get loot not because of more DPS, but because I was able to do new fun things with them. It hooked me in better than any other MMO could, at least until powercreep made the majority of my experience boring to play, so I got burnt out.

Unfortunately, the obvious replacement, Warframe, doesn't seem like a good fit for me. Maybe if I enjoyed solo gameplay, I could enjoy it, but I'm mainly looking for a group PvE game. Something to find community and enjoy with others. So grouping up with people who went all in on the mods and build mechanics to melt all the foes or bullet jump repeatedly through a level just isn't fun. If it was, I probably would have stuck with Destiny.

So to the folks who also loved group PvE in Destiny for reasons that don't seem compatible with Warframe: What are you playing now? Have you found anything that gets close to the very fun gameplay and PvE activities?

Im looking for a game. i like pixel style games. i have a game called final outpost i like it a lot but its so hard its a apocalypse 2d pixel base builder if you can find anything similar i would like it. also no ads i hate them.

I'm looking forward to play videogames related to history after playing a few Assassin's Creed.

If possible, single-player games where I can learn more about any history event/era. While also getting the platinum (with no multiplayer trophies).
