I am not a regular gamer, but once or twice in the week I am indulging in some after work gaming. Mostly I enjoy games that are either story rich to put different thoughts in my mind or games with a simple, but enjoyable gameplay (not too much micromanagement).
Here are my favorites for an after work gaming spree:
- Football Manager (mainly 2008 and 2014 edition)
- Citizen Sleeper
- Suzerain
- Disco Elysium
- The Long Dark
- Dave the Diver
- Hotline Miami
- System Shock 2
- The Long Drive
What about you, what do you play after work (even occasionally) to get your mind off or do you have any suggestions in general?
Like most here I have a couple of games which I play for a few weeks before moving on to the next. The cycle (as of now) includes:
Terraria
Warframe
Elden Ring (Sometimes Bloodborne, DS1 or DS3)
Factorio (because fuck sleeping)
SYNTHETIK
Resident Evil 2 or 4 Remakes
These are the usual suspects I play over and over again. Sometimes I squeeze in a new game. Some of the last games were Outer Wilds, Dead Space Remake, Katamari Damacy REROLL, God of War Ragnarök and Boltgun. Right now I am farming the shit out of Warframe again, but I think I might give Starsector a shot. Looks like a lot of fun to me.
Games that have been a part of the cycle were: Destiny 1, Destiny 2 and Guild Wars 2, Fallout 4, Skyrim. I lost interest in these games after a couple of
hundredthousand hours.
