Am I the only one who enjoys games that have engaging stories. Sometimes I even turn the difficulty down, so that I enjoy the story and not struggle so much.
I mean challenging games can be fun sometimes, but nowadays I just feel that my life offers me enough struggles not to want another one while playing. For me games offer an escape of reality and I like them chill and casual but still with an engaging story.
Sounds like you need to play more adventure games! Point & click had it’s heyday in the 90s with outstanding story-based game series like Monkey Island, Broken Sword, and Gabriel Knight, but there’s been a resurgence in recent years through games like Gemini Rue, Machinarium, and Deponia.
If you’re enjoying Syberia, definitely start looking at more point & click games - there’s a ton of variety!
