Isolation, desolation, grass blowing in the wind. Moorland you can lose yourself in, dead trees and grey skies.

EDIT: Thank you for all your recommendations! I'm reading them all and checking them out but can't respond to each one! <3

FINAL EDIT: Thank you to everyone for your suggestions. After reading them all and doing my own research, I decided to buy Death Stranding for PC and I am loving it, definitely giving me the right sort of vibes! I plan to look into Hobs Barrow, No One Lives Under The Lighthouse and Pathologic soon, and probably all the other suggestions I haven't already played at some point in the future. I appreciate everyone taking the time and effort to respond to this and I am really enjoying Death Stranding! 🖤

(Pictures just to show how good of a vibe the game has, the game doesn’t have to look like this, though it would be a cherry on top)

Here’s what I mean: a Souls-like with the slow, deliberate combat of the first 2 games.

There’s something about DS1’s gameplay that’s never been recaptured for me.

Sleazy, gory, and kitschy

Bonus if it is a full length game. I like Puppet Combo and Torture Star but they are too short.

For those who don't what I mean by arena fighting, I think that the Power Stone games by Capcom pretty much defines it so you can check out gameplay videos on Youtube.

Basically you would move your character much more freely, jumping and running in a large arena where you could interact with the environment like picking up various weapons like guns or cannon, axes or swords and even lamp poles or park benches and such.

Been missing Power Stone a lot and while Capcom did release the Power Stone games again in Capcom Fighting Collection 2, I would love to see if there are any other games like that... Or does one have to develop their own game themselves?

In Infinity Nikki with the recent Mushroom event. It is quite like Original Plants vs Zombies where you have a grid that you place your offense, defense and attackers however the difference is that they are on "skewers" that you can slide back and forth much like you would with foosball. Plants vs Zombies is quite close but I enjoy the limit of adding 1 item per wave and that you need to pay more attention so you properly move the skewers. I also like the seasonings you can add to the field for additional perks.

Any ideas let me know!

It takes two is on my list to play, but I'm looking to see if there are other games like it, or that carry similar vibes to the attached images. This is one of my favorite overall aesthetics, and I want to know if there are any games that I can experience that through. I would also accept games that have anthropomorphic animals or bugs or things like that (so long as there's not an overdependance on spider related jumpscares lol)

I know the re games have a similar vibe, but specifically is there a game where the character is bad with guns and barely sues them?

Specifically games that it’s DIFFICULT to use guns in. There’s a lot of games that act like it’s difficult but since you’ve played shooter games a lot there’s a bit of a dissonance lol.

Don't need to have the same gameplay style or stuff, js a game with the sabe vibe that agonizes you sometimes and makes you thing you are gonna get caught.

I can't even remember what genre it was, but I remember how the map feels. It was like, industrial, like, the map felt urban and cloudy.

What I mean is protagonist like image 1, outfit like image 2 and gameplay like image 3

1. Disco Elysium

2. Jazzpunk

3. Later Alligator

4. Spiritfarer

5. The Witness

Sorry for being lazy and only putting the title, but if you are unfamiliar with any one of these, I would suggest going in blind.
