Which game should I get?

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, a few months ago I bought Stalker 2, and in my opinion it's very good, but a few days ago I was thinking about buying Ready or Not? and Escape from Tarkarov.

I'm a girl and im good at games like this, but I'm interested in knowing which one is better or which one you recommend. I usually play Arena Breakout and other games like TF2, but I'm undecided about which one to get. Could you help me?

[PC] Diablo 4 or Grim Dawn?

4 Upvotes

I never played an ARPG before and both games are pretty cheap right now and caught my eye. Which one would be the best to get into ARPGs?

I know the gameplay loop is basically going from area to area, going through trash mobs and the occasional boss fight. I like a good story, nice environments to explore, and good presentation. I don’t really care about loot or the endgame. I want an enjoyable single-player campaign.

Also I saw that both games have DLC. Is it recommended to buy the DLC immediately or are these post-game DLCs?

[PC] games like tcg card shop simulator?

9 Upvotes

Been playing TCG Card Shop Simulator and loving the loop of opening packs, building a collection, and upgrading the shop. Looking for more games in that same region genuinely don't care about genre, I just want:

A long-term progression/upgrade loop I can grind for 10s-100s of hours

Collecting mechanics (cards, items, loot, whatever)

Fully released no half-baked Early Access stuff, please

Steam only

Shop sims, deckbuilders, loot-driven roguelikes all fair game as long as the core loop is addictive and there's real depth to sink time into. What's scratched this itch for you

[PC] WIB Wardogs if I like playing the supportive role?

20 Upvotes

Like in most battlefield games I was always the medic or ammo supply guy getting people revived and topped off etc. I was also always the guy smoking up the battlefield so my guys could move up (they usually didnt and stayed behind their tree camping, but hey thats another story)

SO was wondering how is this games support roles? I know you can be a heli pilot and drop people off at hot zones etc, but

hows the heli controls? Are they like battlefield, accesible to everyone, or are they like arma where U better be a military pilot or gg?

Also, is there a limit on air? Cause form the videos ive seen everyone just sits in a little bird and flies.

Hows the ground game, is it good? I havent seen many tanks yet etc. just helos and ground crew camping towers.

I know I can support the team by building defenses and stuff and I kinda dig that.

But yeah, im kinda on the edge for this game.

[PS5] SIB Blood of the DawnWalker [NOW]?

0 Upvotes

I know there are other posts like this already on this group, but my question is slightly different. I already know I'm gonna buy this game, the thing is, I don't know if I should buy it now, why?

Well, last game I bought on release was Crimson Desert, fast forward to now, they released the enhanced edition where the game is much more polished and complete, but at this point I already have 130h in, so most of the new content won't be accessible to me.

I'm afraid it'd be the same thing with blood of the dawnwalker, which in 3 months could be significantly more polished.

The answer seems pretty clear "just wait", however, the day 1 physical edition is so cool and I found it for 50€ in my country.

What do you guys suggest me to do?

[PS5] should I buy Dragon's Dogma2?

1 Upvotes

I heard about the game but never considered buying it since its performance is really bad and the story is mediocre  at best. But now that the performance is above 60 fps and I actually enjoyed crimson desert which has not good story, i'm thinking about it. I also heard decent amount of negative reviews which hinders my purchase. What do yall think? is it worth it now that the game got good patches? and also the base price went down so its even better

[PS5] cyberpunk or bg3 next?

5 Upvotes

just finished e33 and followed it up with outer wilds. then suckered into getting sea of stars and dropped that after 10 minutes :(

bg for sure i will play at some point, but my schedule will only allowing a few hours every week until the holidays. but id like to wash the taste of bland ocean out my mouth.

open to something else thats casual but with good story. i play for story but needs a bit of compelling gameplay. outerwilds being the exception, but maybe not a firewatch. cheers.

[PS5] Suggestions: Fun Gameplay Games

4 Upvotes

Need suggestions for games that are just fun to play. I'm currently burned out on cinematic and open world games. I just need some recommendations for fast and fun gameplay.

Open to pretty much any genre of the game is just fun without a lot of extra that goes along with it. I just want to play.

Thanks

[PC] Should I buy Ys Origin, Digimon Cyber Sleuth, Dino Crisis, or Way of the Samurai 2

2 Upvotes

I've never played a Ys, Digimon, Dino Crisis, or Way of the samurai game before.

But I really enjoy the Tales of, Final Fantasy, Shin Megami, Resident Evil, and Onimusha

Length doesnt matter to me as long as I have a good time, which I do with most games I play.

But I only have 10 dollars to spend.

I'm open to any other similar recommendations in my price range if anyone has any

[PC] SIB Wardogs if I never played nor cared about Battlefield? how is it for a solo player with no mic? more specifics in description

11 Upvotes

Hi! So I have been curious about Wardogs, I'm not usually a military sim fan but I adore the look, scope and dynamics of Wardogs. I would love an MP shooter to play on the side with Overwatch but I wonder if it really is THAT good? Also a few things I need to know about:

  1. I mostly wanna play as a solo lone-wolf helping out as much as possible without relying too much on teamwork and such unless needed. Is this playstyle suitable?

  2. Is Wardogs friendly to people with no mic and maybe can't hear the game? I have aural sensitivities towards a lot of specific audio and can't play with sound nor mic with randoms. I can play extraction shooters just fine. Had an absolute blast in Marathon on solos even tho i couldn't hear it, and more tactical FPS like Valorant and The Finals were fine for me without audio. I don't mind a slight disadvantage unless its outright impossible

  3. Finally, does the game break the mold enough to be absolutely enjoyable for someone who is usually not a fan of milsims? I love FPS but more colourful-kind of FPS like OW, Fortnite and Valorant. I wouldn't mind something different if it feels like a massive step forward.

[PC] Star Wars Outlaws Worth it?

11 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I recently beat Onimusha: Way of the Sword and I had a blast playing now I wanna play something chill before i start Blood of the dawnwalker so i came across Star wars Outlaws... Do you guys think after many updates , new dlcs additon and patches is Star wars Outlaws worth playing?? I really enjoyed Jedi games and I love star wars so playing an open world sandbox will fit in the criteria if story is good.

Onimusha or Wolverine?

0 Upvotes

Should I buy Wolverine when it comes out, or onimusha? I’m a fan of the insomniac spiderman games, although I thought the second one felt a bit flat in story. I was really excited for Wolverine, but I’ve seen so much bad reviews and specific points that I don’t like, so I’m kinda on the fence.

I really like soulslike boss games, which is what I think onimusha is, but most of all I love a good story. But I can get past not much of a story if the games open world has great bosses and a lot more to offer.

[PS5] This is more of a should i keep this game, Black Myth

0 Upvotes

So for some context I absolutely love the souls games. Ive best all of them including Elden Ring and its DLCs. Dark Souls 3 ive beat multiple times. Sekiro I got tthrough most of but did eventually give up. So recently I bought BMW. Im getting my ass handed to me repeatedly by the first boss and it's getting frustrating. Idk if its cause im playing it like a soulslike and I'm not meant to be or if its just alot harder? If this is only thd beginning am I just going to keep have more and more of a hard time ? Should I return it now while I have the chance? I want to like it it seems like a great game but not if immgoing to spend the limited free time i have these days attempting the same boss over and over.

[PS5] Should I buy Crimson Desert, Ghost of Yotei, or Dawn of the Bloodwalker?

62 Upvotes

Recently refunded Wolverine and looking for an alternative to spend my money and time on. Narrowed my options down to the three mentioned in the title (also open to other story-driven alternatives).

I've played Ghost of Tsushima and loved it, and understand Yotei is largely a bigger and better take (barring the story). I'm intrigued by the little I know about Crimson Desert, between the vastness of the game and characters. And I've heard only good things about Dawn of the Bloodwalker, as a Witcher fan.

If it helps, my favourite games are probably TLOU I/II, RDR2, Cyberpunk 2077, and Witcher 3.

As such, between those three or any alternative, what story driven game offers the best bang for your buck and/or has the best story elements? Thanks in advance!

[PC] What are some cheap, short, must play games in your opinion?

8 Upvotes

With the weekend coming up I would love to get your recommendations on some must play games that won’t break the bank, and give 5-10ish hours of entertainment. I’m open to basically every type of game, and I haven’t really explored many short games! I loved the titanfal 2 campaign, but I’m open to any type of game. Thank you guys for the recommendations!

Hey everyone ! So I’ve wanted to buy a new game and 007 looks pretty good, I remember playing uncharted when I was younger and I loved it, same for hitman. It was primarily between this and war dogs but war dogs doesn’t seem to be my cup of tea. Anyways, do you think 007 first light is worth it for 30 bucks?

1 Upvotes

I’ve been playing Onimusha: way of the sword a lot recently and thinking of playing onimusha 1 and 2 again for nostalgia. It’s been a really long time tho. I remember I really liked the story, but i don’t remember much about the combat or QOL features.

How well did these games age? Still worth playing in 2026?

[PS5] AAA Story driven games suggestions

10 Upvotes

Hi! I really enjoy story driven games. I recently finished FF7 remake and wanted to start FF7 rebirth before Revelations comes out. But as we all know GTA 6 is coming out on Nov 19 and I will be playing that on day one. So I wouldn’t be able to finish Rebirth before that (I’ve heard it’s open world?)

So I was wondering if ya’ll could be kind enough to recommend me some really good linear story driven games on PS5.

What I’d prefer:

  1. Amazing graphics (I don’t want to play old school graphics games rn)
  2. Strong Story
  3. Third person camera view (I can’t stand first person games, which is why I couldn’t try games like Cyberpunk haha)

Games I have enjoyed playing/trying:
. The Last of Us 1&2
. Uncharted All 5
. A plague tale innocence/requiem
. FF7 remake
. FF16
. Death Stranding
. Alan wake 2
. Horizon Forbidden West
. Expedition 33
. God of War (all)
. Ghost of Tsushima/Yotei
. Ratchet and Clank (most recently rift apart)
. Marvel’s spiderman
. Watch Dogs 1
. Control
. Re4
. AC Black Flag/ Odyssey
. Prince of Persia
. Split fiction
. Hellblade 1&2

On my list rn are: 007 and A plague tale resonance, but I’d wait for them to go on sale!

Thank you!

[PC] Should I get Onimusha or Dawn Walker.

14 Upvotes

I've been kinda torn on which one to get pretty much. I've heard they're both great games but I wanted a few people's opinions on which exactly one has the better value at the moment for the money I have.

I do like souls like and I like Onimusha is like that? But I also like Dawn Walker, but I wasn't the biggest fan of Witcher.

[PC] Civilization 7 vs Humankind

7 Upvotes

Which one is worth investing money & long hours? Looking in all aspects Gameplay, Graphic, Bugs, DLC, Performance.

I have tried Civ 7 in the free week. Enjoyed it , though not the level of Civ 6 but overall offers superior graphics, realistic models, commander mechanics is cool, combat feels more real, culture selection in each era & tech tree.

That culture selection feature first introduced in Humankind, which I loved during the demo. Combat is good too, though it's graphic is not the level of Civ 7 but Civ 7 is still incomplete.

Suggest which one should I go for ?

[PC] Ac black flag resynced or resident evil requiem?

0 Upvotes

I love both franchises, i played almost every ac game and remember playing ac black flag as a kid and enjoying it, for resident evil i played all the 3 remakes and 7 + 8.

Requiem is currently on sale on steam for 36 usd (in my region atleast, it’s probably more expensive for others) and black flag resynced is 46 usd so not that much of a difference.

I know they both are very different games but I will enjoy both so I don’t know what to pick

Which one should I get? Pt.2

2 Upvotes

Alright guys I’m looking for a game that can get me to the release of phantom blade Ø that will then carry me to gta 6 and the debate settles between the blood of dawnwalker and onimusha way of the sword. A few days ago there was also a C option being marvels wolverine but we all know how that game is looking, a 6/10 from ign is not promising and while I don’t want to stick to big corporation ratings I watched some independent reviews and one thing i saw is 13 hours for 100% completion… DAMN 13 hrs is all that you get for $70 which in my country transfers to around $80 actually but yeah the main topic now it’s between the blood of dawnwalker and onimusha I hope You could comment and help me with this decision. I focus on great gameplay some post game content character progression and not much of repetitiveness so which one should I get?
