Hey guys, I unfortunately got sick with covid. To take my mind of it I'm trying to figure out which games in my library to play next.

Here is a list of games I want to play. I want to know which ones you liked the most!

Also I did make a thread like this almost a year ago and the winners were Hellblade and Gris. Both were fantastic games so thank you!

LVL 3
Proagation VR co-op
Traffic Jam
Oxenfree
Levelhead
HOB
Shadows Awakening

Edit: Sorry if I don't reply to everyones comments. I don't want to spam this thread to the top. But, Here is a list of the Top ten games chosen so far! I will play them in no specific order and add a giveaway for every game started. I'll keep updating this thread while I'm sick to keep myself from going crazy. Thank you all for indulging my poor decision making skills and feel free to keep suggesting from the list to bump up your favorite game!

Top Ten based on your choices

1. Hades

2. Batman: Arkham Asylum

3.Control

4. Okami

5. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

6. Vampire: Bloodlines

7. Mass Effect 2

8. Dragon Age: Origins

9. Spyro: Reignited Trilogy

10. Outerwilds

Update:
Just started Batman: Arkham Asylum. I'm about two hours in and I love it so far! For an older game it aged very nicely. The bat gadgets, story, and controls are great. I'll update when I play more.

Fuck Covid. I got it once, and holy shit. I vomited so much, and I ached terribly.
Hope you get well soon!

As for game recommendations? I really love love love The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth and Sonic Mania.

I second your recommendation of The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth. I got all achievements before the latest DLC Repentance. But I didn't really play since its release. The new content and game mechanics have been too complicated or not intuitive enough for me. By now, there are certainly some good guides and I should revisit that game some day.

Yeah, Repentance certainly did take a while to get used to. I've found that let's plays helped a lot with getting into things. Guides should help, too. I bet there's lots of those!
But I found it good enough to go ahead and play, even though I first sucked at it. lol

Thank you, too!

I'm lucky that vomiting is a minor inconvenience for me. I just consumed more fluids as needed, especially the fruit drinks I got to help keep me hydrated. I get those specially for my sick days. It's a little treat for myself. I love peach and pear nectars. 😊

The pain sucked, tho. lmao

There are a lot of good games ... Batman, Hades, Crash, Ori, Spiro, Ace Attorney, Outer worlds.. woah, difficult but, then I saw that one...

CONTROL

I freakin' adore that game (the story, the atmosphere, the graphic style, the audio... awww), played for free and finished on Epic and then immediately after that bought on sale the Ultimate Edition on steam and 100% it

Some really neat games up on your list.

Dragon Age: Origins, Life is Strange: True Colors and Darkness 2 are probably my faves out of these bunch (that I've played, that is).

Man, sorry to hear that. I hope you get well soon.

That said, TemTem is coming out of early access this September. I figure it'll be something you can add to your backlog after everyone else has made their suggestions. 😉

If not, Bloodlines never gets old!

Yakuza 0 and Guacamelee are really good games.
You can complete Guacamelee in 10/20 hours. It's a really fun metroidvania.

For Yakuza you might toss your life away cause there is a LOT of content, but at least it have the charm of completely taking you with the ambiance of the game. You really feel like you are in the streets of the red light district, and the story is good.
If you only focus on the story you can get it done relatively fast so there's that at least ;3

Hope you have a whole lot of rest, don't give up pal !
Hope you make a full recovery <3

I've been having a decent enough time with 911 Operator lately, and I see you have its sequal (112 operator) on the list. The gameplay loop is kind of simple but it's still a neat experience.

Quite a few games there that are on my to play/buy list.

Yakuza is definitely near the top of games I want to play soon.

Good luck.

Well, I enjoyed both ME2 and Dragon Age Origins very much for the same reasons. DAO's graphics are quite dated and the battle mechanics can feel clunky until you get used to it but the comradeship aspect is on point.
Wish you a fast recovery.

Damn, that is a great list. 70% are games that I have played and really liked, that I want to play or are on my wishlist. My recommendations:

  1. The Outer Wilds - game of the decade.

  2. Danganronpa V3 and Zero Escape: The Nonary Games. Since you finished Danganronpa 1 and 2, V3 should be near the top of your list. I enjoyed it as much as first two games, although general reception wasn't as great. Zero Escape series is great, and I cannot recommend it enough. Third game in the series is weakest but I liked it nevertheless. From that genre I would also recommend AI: The Somnium Files (from the same writer as Zero Escape) and 428: Shibuya Scramble

  3. Spyro and Crash are classics, and they are definition of perfect remasters. I got 100% achievements in both games.

  4. Ori and the Will of the Wisps and Guacamelee. Great metroidvanias if you are into them. Guacamelee 2 was even better than the first, with some really challenging (optional) content.

  5. Batman: Arkham Asylum (and City, Origins and Knight) - series that did everything right.

  6. Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair - classic platformers don't get much better than this. Only Rayman games (Origins and Legends) are up there (and little better imo).

  7. Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments is regarded as best Sherlock Holmes game. If you are into solving mystery you can't miss this one. You can also come to the wrong conclusion and accuse the wrong person.

  8. Unheard - I only played it a little but it has original idea for a game which is a rarity nowadays and I will get back to it for sure.

From the games that I haven't played yet but I know 100% that I will like them:

  1. Hades - it is #2 on my wishlist for a long time (Silksong is cemented as #1 until it comes out :P). It is Supergiant game, that is more than enough to play it as soon as possible.

  2. Paradise Killer - I love good visual novel and mystery game, and this is combination of those.

  3. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy

I would recommend Hades but it's probably wiser to play something more relaxing when sick. So I suggest The Outer Worlds or one of the many visual novels you have.

OMG, Get well soon.

I currently have covid as well. Basically locked in my room for the past week and going stir crazy. Gaming, Netflix, Gaming, Netflix, Gaming.... I don't know what to do with myself anymore. Haha!

There's a few games on your list that I want to play but haven't yet.

Hades. I really like the games by that studio, so I'm guessing it's gonna be great.
Eagle Island. I forgot I own that. Must play it soon.

Thank you! =)

Ah, I'm not too bad when it comes to recommendations. I added a bunch of games to "favourites" to choose from. (I own way too many games lol) Been playing "Evoland Legendary Edition" but I am mad with it now, so I give up. Hurt my wrist trying to beat Shadow Kuro for hours, while also trying to also beat the lag. Don't think my computer's able to handle that fight for some reason.

Playing Steamworld Dig, which is kinda fun. And bits and pieces of other things in between.

I hope that you feel better soooooon!

The Arkham games are personal favorites... I've 100%'d all 3 of the Rocksteady ones (ie. all but Origins)
My Time at Portia is super-addictive, and definitely more zen for when you're not feeling well.

and I've added Control to my play-soon list because of this thread :D
