We all have that one game or genre that never gets old and we return to time and time again.
What is it for you and why is that the case?
Was thinking about this earlier today, but lately I’ve gotten burnt out on Final Fantasy XVI whether that be due to the tone, design or combat I am not too sure. Had a slow weekend for once and decided to pop in Atelier Ryza 2 as I recently picked up Ryza 3 due to it having a small print run. Spent most of the day playing it off and on, but the brighter and more positive tone was a boon compared to the drudgery of FFXVI.
Atelier isn’t always my comfort food, but that was a nice change. That distinction would have to either go to rhythm games or to stuff like Trackmania or Minecraft where you can “shut off your brain” and just play. TM has a certain “flow” to the tracks that isn’t like anything else out there and Minecraft just throws you into the world and lets you go. (Albeit on Peaceful.)
Factorio for me. There is always some old megafactory to pick up again or a new mod nightmare to try out.
If you are a fan of the first one, and have time to spare time you should still play it. But know that it’s missing a lot of the magic.
Original Quake, RimWorld, crusader kings, and it’s looking like Against the Storm
Sorry I know that’s 4 but fuck it, I can’t decide.
