Try Luck be a landlord. We have eerily the same taste in games and Luck be a landlord has been my favorite game of the last few years. There’s a demo if you wanna try before you buy

RTS by far but limited number of games that are actually good
Have you tried beyond All Reason? I just started playing it but having a blast.
I mostly play JRPGs and SRPGs. Preferably more on the linear side as I can only enojoy at most 1-2 open world games a year before they get tedious.
Inbetween those, I occasionally play games from all sorts of genres. Except for FPS and multiplayer stuff.
Games where at least a significant portion of it is low-key/relaxing. Thinking Breath of the Wild, Persona 5, Spiritfarer.
Fighting games !
I am really like the process of learning in this genre, as well as the depth of facing another human, getting to know their habits and style of playing. Plus, I love rythm games so learning combos is fun to me.
What’s your main fighting game? Been playing SF6?
Yeah, SF6 is the first of the series I’m really getting into, and it’s been great ! First fighting game that feels like a complete package, great single player, tutorials, fun modes, and really good training and online experience.
Civ IV
I was terrible at Civ in the first iteration. Still terrible at it.
I don’t think I’m great, really. I play on pretty low difficulty and quick speed. Most of the time I rip through a whole game in an hour and a half.
I was terrible when I started on Civ V, so confused and overwhelmed. I was interested though and read a couple recommended settings/actions and things started to come together more. Now I’ve got about 400 hrs in Civ VI
Roguelikes/lites (my latest addiction is Gunfire Reborn)
Survival/crafting games (think Subnautica, Dont Starve)
Soulslikes (I’m a filthy INT main)
Terraria, for some reason can’t shake off the addiction
Puzzle games, occasionally (especially first person puzzles like Portal, Turing Test, Talos Principle)
My guilty pleasure is coming back to Overwatch every once in a while, if only to remind myself why I left the last time
these are great recs, what is INT?
Intelligence stat, it’s used for sorcery in Souls games
I’ve been really into games with a good crafting system where you have to try to survive. Don’t Starve and Subnautica are the ones that have taken most of my time. I also like colony management games, like RimWorld and Oxygen Not Included
You might like Stationeers
I had never heard of this game before, but I bought it on your recommendation. Wish me luck!
Thats awesome! I highly suggest visiting their discord. You’ll find lots of conversation and if you have questions it’s the best place to be
The other recommendations you got are good, but add a slightly different style check out This War Of Mine. Disclaimer : it’s. Heavy topic game. You survive as a civilian in an ongoing warzone (in short). You craft you home base during the day, and either scavenge for meager supplies at night (suffering exhaustion) or sleep at night. It’s a fairly brutal game, emotional, but some people are into that stuff… A friend, yeah! Not me.
You have my taste in games dialed in. I LOVED This War Of Mine, and I loved the expansion that added children. I liked most of the characters, but for whatever reason Marko was always my favorite, and I could not stand Bruno. Honestly, I think I’m gonna go boot that up again and get ruined emotionally by the supermarket event again.
Competitive shooters, cs and valo mostly. I’ll automatically try to find the most optimal playstyle in any game i play, which ends up in me losing interest when it gets too easy. In PvP comp games the opponents are doing the same so it doesn’t feel like I’m cheesing my way trough. Anything with a decent ranking system is my jam, because owning noobs is fun for a while but a win feels way more rewarding when it was a hard fought back and forth.
I used to love MMOs (Eve Online and FFXIV) back when I had masses of free time and could get away with coming home from work and getting stuck into a game from 6pm until 12pm every night. The communities I got to join in with were great and it was really fun. Loved Dota 2 for years as well.
Now that I’ve got a kid though I have to play things that I can pick up and put down quickly and easily and that’s kind of pushed me into mostly playing single player games now. Currently playing FFXVI.
I will play any game with resource gathering and factory management. Factorio of course. Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Project, Captain of Industry.
Take a gander at Stationeers
Surviving Mars is a good one
Pretty much anything but competitive multiplayer stuff and the majority of rogue-esque titles. Just don’t have the time to dedicate to learning the ins and outs of one specific title.
My favorite genres include:
- JRPGs
- Rhythm Games
- Racing
- Platformers
- Metroidvanias
- Visual novels
- Action Adventure
Buggy, early access, survival crafting games.
Got some interesting ones to share?
Historically I played a lot of Ark, Conan Exiles, Raft, Stranded Deep, 7 Days to Die, Green Hell, Astroneer, Scrap Mechanic, The Forest, Osiris New Dawn and all the usual suspects.
Recently I have tried a few like Valheim, Vulcanoids, Survive the Night, Sons of the Forest, Deadpoly, No One Survived and Grounded.
Thanks for the list! I’ve played them all except for Vulcsnoids which is on my wish list.
Ive got my eye on Nightingale at the moment. Have you seen any others on the horizon?
I recently backed Solar Punk on Kickstarter which looks like it has potential
Nice. Wishlisted.
I’m also currently pls in Dinkum, which is Australian Animal Crossing! Quite addicting.
Strategy, space sim, driving, open world.
I like easy games. the more relaxed, the better.
Currently I’m playing Spiderman Remastered and boy, i feel i’m 17 again playing Spiderman 2 on the PS2.
Co-op PVE games are my bread and butter, Warframe or Division 2.
I like games where I can be overpowered. Like Cyberpunk 2077.
And also laid back games like Stardew Valley.
Any interest in Civ? It’s my relaxed game. So easy to pickup and put down (well… After 1 more turn…) and travels well.
I love civ, but I lack the strategic mind to truly enjoy it. Same goes for crusader kings 3, it’s a game I love watching and listening my friends talking about, but it’s nothing I could play comfortably.
I enjoy dwarf fortress, though. Rimworld as well but not as much.
