Reply to This is cringe but where do I start with gaming by much2thinkabtnothin

Ima just throw a few out I guess,

  • "Portal"/"Portal 2"
  • "Firewatch" is really good for a basic mostly walking/story based game. It would be great for a true beginner.
  • "A Hat in Time" is a fantastic 3d platformer if you've ever played Mario 64 or Banjo Kazooie
  • "A Short Hike"
  • "Valheim" is a time sink but truly just an amazingly enjoyable game(Kinda hard for a true beginner)
  • If you do ever want to try a game with him or ever have the time, "We Were Here" is a really fun co-op puzzle game series that I personally enjoyed a lot
  • "Wildermyth" is a fun D&D style of game whilst I have only played multiplayer, it is single-player if you are into that kind of thing

These next few might get into the "harder"(by harder, I mostly mean more "complex" before all you shitlords come screaming about how these games are easy) section for someone completely new to games but if you want to learn, here they are:

  • "Bioshock" series
  • "Half-Life" series(dated but really fun)
  • "Borderlands" series
  • "Celeste" (Great but difficult even for life-long gamers)
  • "Sid Meier's Civilization 6" If you like long "Risk" like games(Also DLC for it is def worth it)
  • "Mirror's Edge" is fantastic and "Mirror's Edge Catalyst" is as well but Catalyst is open world so it might be easy to get lost
  • "Risk of Rain 2" is fantastic but pretty darn tough
  • "Outlast" is great if you like spooky games
  • "Limbo" is a slower 2d platformer that I enjoyed
  • "Seen" is kind of like "Limbo"
  • "Little Nightmares"
  • "Inside"
  • "Ori and the Blind Forest"
  • "Undertale"

I feel as if this should be more than enough to get your foot well past the door but as with all things, just because I enjoyed them doesn't mean you will or have so miss me with them fightin' words if you have any issues with this.

Reply to Single-player games by vinnykd

I find the Assassins Creed games just feel lonely as is. Just my personal opinion. I don't know what types of games you are into but maybe try a heavily story driven game. Sometimes you can get lost in the plot to where it feels closer to a movie as in you feel more "In" the game rather than playing it. Not sure though, I do find online less lonely as you are *literally* playing with/communicating with real people.

Reply to Do you prefer to use a Keyboard or Controller when PC gaming? by illbeurHuckleberry69

For me it's very game based. For most I will use K&M but for the Souls series, two 2d platformers(speedrunners and RoR) and some basic racing games I will use controller. Now I also have a wheel for certain more "realistic" racing games and things like ATS as well as looking to set up a flight sim rig though probably early next year after I buy a house.
