Edit: Thanks so much for all your awesome recommendations and feedback. Based on sheer popularity it looks like my next 3 franchises will be Mass Effect (5 votes), Dead Space (3 votes) and Batman Arkham (3 votes). I love Lemmy!

So since picking up my steam deck last year I’ve been slowly but surely working through some old trilogies that I never got round to playing. I’m a very casual gamer who plays when opportunity strikes, so it’s taken me a year to play all 3 bioshock, mafia and tomb raider games. I played them in alternating order of release (bioshock 1, mafia 1, tomb raider, bioshock 2, mafia 2, tomb raider 2 etc) and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of watching each story unfold and graphics improve.

So as I approach the end of Mafia 3, I’m looking to repeat this exercise. The Assassin’s creed collection just went on sale on steam, so I’m thinking I may start there, so am looking for recommendations for another 2 franchises to compliment (or change up) my playing experience over the next year.

Any help much appreciated!
