Changing the type of games I play

Relentless81 · 31 Dec 2017 at 11:01

Hello,

I used to play Battlefield constantly to the point where I was playing it and not enjoying it, I've recently discovered indie games and just finished Fire Watch which was such an incredible game that I want to find more of the stuff I haven't tried before.

I have played loads of games over the years and more recently I finished the Witcher 3 and Just Cause 3 both of which I liked for different reasons.

Because Steam has such a vast library of games can anyone recommend anything worth picking up before the sales finish?

I've got Vanquish, Quantum Break and This War Of Mine to play but want a couple more to take me up to the summer. Maybe an RTS or a building type game?

Thanks

Wow so many of them look great, I'm definitely getting Abzu, Inside and what became of Edith Finch

I've played all the Biuoshock games, man I regret making this thread now I'm going to spend a small fortune!

Thanks!

I'm spent up now but have added every game mentioned to my wishlist to refer back to next time round.

Thanks all for the suggestions

The Swapper looks interesting, kind of reminds me of that old Amiga platformer that had amazing graphics for its time

Since creating this thread I've bought and played the following -

Lifeless Planet - It was going really well until I quit the game and it says "Saving and quitting" then when I loaded it back up to play it again it loaded up a good half hour prior to where I quit so I'll go back to that.

Ori and the blindforest - I really really liked this to start, such an awesome looking, fun but challenging game and I was really enjoying it and then the Ginsun Tree. After a couple of hours of incredible frustration I have uninstalled it. Shame.

Quantum Break - This game got slated when it came out, I should have learned by now not to bother with reviews because one of my favourite cars that I've ever owned also got slated by reviewers but I loved it. The graphics, wow they are probably the best graphics I have eve seen, the actors are all real actors I recognise and I really like the combat and gun mechanics. Really enjoying it. The film sequences are ok, bit strange for a game and a little too long.
