Id agree same can be said for skyrim to be fair, but it is miles ahead of KoA any day

End of the day, I love RPG games, there's no need to keep comparing KoA and skyrim.
As long as I'll enjoy KoR that's all I'm bothered about
and for £5 I'm not losing much.

Very true, may have got carried away. for a 5er it has to be worth a look
I have all of these and think they each have their strengths.
Most alone? I would rule out Firewatch, it's a fantastic game but you have so much banter on your radio you never really feel "alone". Exploring is great though despite it not being a huge map, scale seems to have been adjusted. The story is excellent but short (4 hours)
The other two definitely make you feel alone, my personal favourite is Subnautica and if you are fine with constantly wanting to look over your shoulder (especially if you have a fear of dark waters), is a great game. It also has the most to explore IMO but is still early access. It also has crafting/base building.
Long dark certainly makes you feel isolated, but find the map too small to really feel lost but it has variety. It is the harder of the two to survive if you want a challenge. No base building but has some basic crafting.

The Long Dark has just been updated with more content.
Firewatch is a bit short and is more linear story based than free roaming survive type
Subnautica v good if you like underwater bases..swimming and sharks n stuff

I may try subnautica, i have tried a few of these survival games but always give up too soon, maybe this ones more interesting?

Thanks guys, I'll get The Long Dark
Not played much of it but it does seem like "the real deal".
Also there is an actual campaign in the works which is what I am looking forward to.

Just got Subnautica as well - will load it up once the littleun has gone to bed! Was toying with the Long Dark also, but thought Subnautica looked more "fun". Got Darkest Dungeon on standby, as looks interesting if a little "grindy" and frustrating from the comments!

LOL....I just went to buy Dirt Rally and then noticed I already owned it..
Dirt Rally Sale price now £23.99
And when I bought it on steam over a year ago back in apr 2015 it was £22.49
It was in early access for ages maybe thats why it was cheaper? Not sure when it fully launched?
Not played anywhere near all the games I have bought so far but man, Ghost 1.0 is awesome. I love it!
Just bought the excellent OST as well

Darkest Dungeon is a hideously frustrating game but at the same time such a hugely rewarding one when you succeed against a game that seems to enjoy just flipping you off and making you suffer
I loved it but didn't finish, took a break when my elite squad were all mauled in horrific circumstances
That does look good. I do like Metroidvania-style.
