I have had playstation for a while, but aside from Petz, Rollercoaster tycoon, and the sims <4 I never had a pc that could handle games.
I was gifted a used custom gaming PC cuz the owner was getting a new one! I have an $80 steam gift card I’d love to spend on multiple pop culture classic games I’ve missed out on and can only enjoy on PC/Xbox… my favorite are 3rd person rpg with exploration as an important element in learning about the lore/story. Some sort of reward for exploring thar isn’t loot.
Games I loved
Control
Horizon zero dawn
Persona 5/royal
Those three are S tier life changing, think about forever types
Bishop trilogy (2 is best @me bro)
P5 strikers
Persona 4 golden
Final fantasy, 7, 9, 10, 13, 15
Catherine Full Body
Alan Wake
Ni no Kuni2
The forgotten city
Until dawn
A plague tale 1 innocence
TLOU1
Uncharted 1-3
Portal 1 & 2
Meh
life is strange 1
TLOU2
Nier automata (ikr, wtf? )
Did not finish/Gave up for lack of interest
Mass effect 1 (and thus none of the sequels)
Little nightmares
Fallout 4
Cyberpunk 2077 and not for glitch reasons
Ghostwire
So far the only game I’m sure of is the fable series but I dont even know what version to get? It often gets confusing for older games for a newbie
Thank you so much! I know I should play NV but it’s also painful, a dear friend I lost was really into it and I associate it with him. And games being too open can be overwhelming for me. Decision fatigue. But I still think I should try it and all the info you have provided was very helpful for when I do, thank you again.
I think the decisions in NV are all grey enough to prevent decision fatigue. Oftimes, you’re picking the best of several bad options.
So sorry about your friend. Loss can make some things too hard to revisit. I’d not dare to speak for your loved one, but I would say that if I were to pass away, I’d certainly hope my friends played my favorite game. I’d probably take some time off from whatever afterlife there is just to watch.
