Factorio.
Everything—the gameplay, the music, the art style—feels like I hand selected it. There’s not a single decision the devs made that I wouldn’t have made too.
Not sure why they bothered including a quit game button, that’s my biggest gripe
Dude I'm actively avoiding it.
Cause like, my favourite is anno 1404 and recently I have been caught up with factory town idle.
Both games are about optimising production and trade routes.You can see my apprehension now I'm sure.
Factorio never goes on sale, and will never go on sale. I'd recommend just picking a time and buying it
I've been watching for a sale, if that ever happens. I just picked up Satisfactory on sale and had a similar conversation with a friend. I said I'm definitely the target demographic for it and Factorio is the other on radar.
I don’t think Factorio ever goes on sale but imo it’s worth full price.
If you like Satisfactory, there’s an extremely high chance you’ll like Factorio. The main differences are the obvious 2D top-down vs 3D 1st person and Factorio has a robust military/combat system with base defense while Satisfactory is mostly peaceful unless you’re exploring.
Factorio never ever goes on sale, out of principle. The devs have stated on multiple occasions. They know what their game is worth and they're upfront about asking every player to pay the same price for it.
If you're interested in Factorio at full price, no harm in buying now. If you will never buy it at full price, you will never buy it.
Project Zomboid, even though I'm not into zombie lore.
- Isometric perspective graphics, one of my favorite game perspectives
- Open world, open-ended, sandbox play with enough of a game objective to not be boring
- Hardcore survival with deep, often surprising mechanics
- Amazing multiplayer experiences
- Loads of suspense and tension
- Constant development from a small, totally independent team
- Incredible array of community mods
I would love to see other games in the same vein using other scenarios besides zombies, like maybe warzone survival, etc.
You say “open ended” but it’s not. Project Zomboid has one ending.
Haha, true. Infinite paths to reach the one ending, but still one ending. ;)
Outer Wilds, it has exactly everything I love. I wish I could play it again for the first time, though being unable to do that is one of the reasons I love it
I highly recommend it, it's great, just don't spoil yourself by watching things, even the trailers honestly
Thief: The Dark Project.
It's everything I could ever want.
- Excellent story perfectly meshed with the gameplay.
- A strange high-technology medieval world.
- Incredible level design combined with realistic roughly drawn maps, forcing you to take in your surroundings and build your own map.
- Variety of gameplay, ranging from infiltrating a rich baron's mansion to rob them blind, to delving into ancient crypts filled with odd creatures and an alien culture for some adventurous tomb raiding, to some of the most terrifying pants filling survival horror I've yet encountered.
It is, in my opinion, perfection.
Noita right now ⚗️
The first Deus Ex
Hades
Burnout and Wipeout
If you haven't, you should try Split Second. Racing game but with wild destructive world traps (you can trigger stuff like a commercial aircraft crashing into the track and stiff like that.
yup I tried but only a demo
Sounds like a good Chili aftermath.
What about Redout?
never played it
Ring of Pain
Hey I play that every time I eat Taco Bell
Factorio
DiRT Rally 2 was this for me
Celeste
Right now? The remaster of Soul Reaver 1/2. Now i just need someone to do the rest of the series.
En Garde! and Slay the Princess
Both scratch very specific itches for me
The quest for glory series was my favorite in its time. I still replay it every now and then
Siralim Ultimate. It’s like Pokémon but your party is essentially a machine built from passive effect interactions and the gameplay is like Diablo.
Absolute hidden gem.
Recently started playing and it reminded me of when I used to play MtG and tried to build decks with broken combos.
Monster Hunter in general has me like this
Currently playing Shadow Man Remastered and I'm feeling this way about it. I always wanted to try it as a kid but never had the chance and it's better than I ever expected.

The Dark Mod since a lot of years
Mission lists (New ones in work, can be downloaded and added from the Game menu)
aaaaxy. non-euclidean madness.
Strange Flesh, but in a more literal sense, to a subby bottom bear.
Descenders
Idk why. Well, I do know why: I grew up in an era where Flash games started to do physics-based gameplay, and something about that just made them endlessly replayable and easy to do while focusing on something else like a lecture or whatever.
So many games these days demand your full attention. And that’s great, when you have time for it. But if I just have 45 minutes to derp around while I catch up with friends on Discord, I can’t dive into an epic boss fight that I was prepping for a month ago.
Kingdom Come Deliverance. Low fantasy, no map marker (in hard mode), no superhumans or anything too fancy...
Is this the most recent Kingdom Come 2? I’d been thinking of getting it myself, I play great stories over and over (RDR2, Cyberpunk, Alan Wake 2). But I’ve literally played them all so much that I’m about to be tired of replaying them. So I need a new game to 100% complete, this and STALKER2 have been on my list, but S2 hasn’t been released for ps5.

No, first one. 2 has not been released yet.
Final fantasy 14
