Xcom and xcom 2

Any 4x game. I've recently been playing galactic civilization 3 as it was free on epic a little while back and I've enjoyed that.

How slow is slow? Always surprised at what hardware from the last 10 years can run.

Slay the Spire is my recommendation. Take as long as you like for each turn and endlessly replayable (if it's your cup of tea).

Sorry should have explained a bit better slow as in user. For instance I got Witcher and liked that for a few minutes then in training you had to do all the multiple button presses to make the moves whereas I like games like that you only need one or two buttons at the same time. Will give your game recommendation a look
Thanks

C&C remaster is ok but this is where it’s at. I downloaded the ultimate c&c collection in Origin to get all the music and stuff then removed Origin


Other useful sites realting to OpenRA. There's also a Discord groups (a few discord groups)

I'm subscribed to Kautions cahnnel on youtube too, very useful vids like this one

You might like world of warships. It has a lot going for it in terms of depth and action, but your actions are only as fast as a massive battleship so the focus is on thinking ahead rather than lightning fast reflexes. Eg it takes 30s to turn your turrets from one side of the ship to the other, so you need to decide if that is going to be worth it or get you killed, but actually doing that thing is just moving your mouse and waiting for the turrets to catch up. It's like mental action per minute rather than physical ones.
