What sort of games do you like?

There's a pretty wide spectrum of genres out there.

Ive recently got back into pc gaming so i was just looking for ideas. I like open worlds just because of the amount of stuff you can normally do in them like sandbox games. But ill try anything. I feel like im out of touch with competitive multiplayer games for now unless its chill ones.

Some of my absolute favs:

Half Life 2 (and episodes)

Alien Isolation

Batman Arkham Series

Dying Light

Horizon Zero Dawn

Dead Island

Portal 1 & 2

Tomb Raider (new ones)

Cyberpunk

Division 1 & 2 (story is worth it)

Thats a good list. I have played some of them in the past. I was thinking of trying the half life games. Is black mesa worth playing instead of hf1? I heard good things about the remake

Some of my favourite recent open world style games:

The Witcher 3 - Big open world epic fantasy with tons to explore and do.
Grand Theft Auto 5 - Self explanatory.
Cyberpunk 2077 (despite its flaws, might be worth waiting on a patch though) - Same people that made The Witcher games, flawed but still very enjoyable sci-fi setting.
Assassins Creed Odyssey - Big open world where you get to be a Spartan.
Saints Row 3 Remaster - Very good remaster of an already great game, whackier than GTAV but more fun in my opinion.
Elite Dangerous - Sci-fi where you pilot a space ship and can travel through the galaxy.

Cyberpunk looks fun, i want to try it but i think i should wait until i can get a new graphics card. A lot of new games seem power hungry, plus rtx looks great in that. By the time new cards are available, then it might be patched up.

Updated my list to add Mass Effect, best RPG series I have ever played.

Yes ive heard great things about the mass effect series. Apart from the newest one which apparently isnt that great.

Snowrunner.

Such a great game to chill out by.

On offer too at the moment on Epic.

Is snowrunner better than mudrunner? I think mudrunner was the first one

Lots of good recommendations in here already. I'll add a few that I've not seen mentioned

Dragon Age (first is the best, but they're all good imo)

Elder scrolls/Fallout

Factorio

Satisfactory

Stardew Valley

Borderlands (all of them, though less so the presequel)

Never played borderlands but i thought it was a co op game? Does playing with others make it a better experience if its both sp and coop

I missed this, I'll quote what I wrote in the ME thread,

The bottom 4 all have co-op, I've played all 4 SP and coop and had fun on each. Co-op can add or detract from the experience. I loved BL2 for example, and played it solo pretty quickly as I was emjoying it.
Edit: I'd generally say all games are better with friends if the option is there

Thanks for that. I might try it in the future after 1-3. If its going for cheap as well then thats even better.

Thanks everyone for your input. I got a good list of games here and i will more than likely try them all.
