Hey, I've just finished my uni course last week and am looking at finding some new games to play as I'll have some more time over the summer. Does anyone have any good suggestions? I have quite a big steam library but never seem to manage to finish a lot of games. Of late I seem to be losing my interest in games and will only play a select few, I want to try to get back into some immersive games.

Some of my favorite games:
Hotline Miami
The Last of Us
Mount & Blade
Rocket League
Total War Series

Any suggestions would be great, just looking for something new to capture my interest.

try playing a different genre of game you probably wouldnt touch normally.this often brings surprises and freshness.also maybe a game with others.mp is where fun is at especially with voice coms.

I'm liking this idea, just got to find that something that is completely new

Some great indies about. Try
The Swapper
Limbo
Inside (same studio as Limbo)
Machinarium/Botanicula/ Samarost 3 (Aminata Games studio)
Bittrip runner 1 and 2

That should keep you going.

I liked Limbo, the swapper and inside, those are some of my favourite indies, probably because I could complete them in a small amount of time. Have you tried Little Nightmares? I tried to play that thinking I would get the same experience as Limbo/Inside but I just don't like it very much.

If you like total war could try EU4 it's like total war in roids

I have tried playing EU4 thinking it would be on the smae level as HOI, but i just dont seem to do very well in it haha, i die or get stuck in a position where i can't expand every game because of alliances...

The Witcher 3, one of the most immersive games I have played.

I too have a lot of steam games but find it hard to sit down and play many. The witcher 3 was one that once I got into it just sucked me in and i would lose hours at a time to it. It does take a while to get into it at first as it is a bit of a steep learning curve, but after a few hours it clicks.

I have got to be one of the few people who don't like the Witcher 3, I don't even know why, i know i should like it and i have tried to force myself to play it on a number of occasions but im just never interested enough to continue
