What kinds of games might you recommend with deep worldbuilding and interaction that aren’t RPGs?
I like worldbuilding and stories, and I like when they’re mixed with the interactivity of games, so RPGs seem like they should be a natural fit. Problem is, I dislike the stat-heavy, grindy progression of many RPGs.
I enjoy point & click adventures and visual novels but they’re often more limited in their interactions. What kinds of game might I be missing combining the two?
These are solid suggestions for sure! I still need to get around to the rest of the Dishonored series past the first and finish Prey.
Immersive sims I think are pretty close to what I might be wanting, but they’re unfortunately not that common, and some have RPG elements I don’t find enjoyable. The Arkane games you mention pretty much avoid them last I checked though, and I dig’em for it
Yeah, I also really enjoy immersive sims. Shame that there’s not more of them. I will mention that Dishonored 2 is somewhat hit or miss with people. I think everyone tends to agree that it’s at least decent, but how it holds up to the first game is a pretty divisive topic in my experience.
