The Talos Principle is one of my favorite puzzle games of all time because it actually got me to stop, read, and consider the message
Hades, RoR, and RoR 2 are contenders for best roguelike for me. Not my favorite genre but these hooked me with great replayability
Valheim, while unfinished and full of bugs, was my favorite open world experience with friends but I think Astroneer is a more perfect game. It's simple and does a great job "directing" you while you make your own choices. The sound design is unmatched for relaxing
I love strategy games but I'm a basic bitch here without a variety of them so Civ6, Cities Skylines, Advanced Wars, FTL, and Into The Breach are my favs
I'd split action into two separate categories: Action and multiplayer FPS.
Tomb Raider (2013) was a pretty perfect action game for me. Probably not flawless but I look back on it fondly
Overwatch remains my favorite FPS even though I stopped playing awhile ago. There's just no objective-based team shooter with unique roles besides....TF2, my previous favorite FPS
+1 for The Talos Principle.
If you like puzzles, you'll love Talos.
Great story, too.
I tried out Obduction based on a review that compared it to Talos but...I dunno if I would recommend it. I found the "puzzles" to be unintuitive and had to look up a guide multiple times. Then I'd see the solution and wonder how the hell the game expected me to know i needed an item from across the map.
So if you have any recommendations that are ACTUALLY like Talos, I'd love to hear them.
Yes, Talos II is inbound!
AHHHH WHAT I HAVEN'T BEEN THIS EXCITED ABOUT VIDEO GAME NEWS SINCE....Ok, Cities: Skylines 2. BUT BEFORE THAT...A LONG TIME
It's been a good month of game announcements for me
