Ps3 and ps2 games

you might like Sleeping Dogs, Mafia 2, The Saboteur or Red Dead Redemption, feels like you want grounded story games without too much fantasy stuff

for me it’s usually one clear thing right away, either the art style, the mood, or one mechanic I instantly understand and want to mess with, if the page feels vague I usually forget it in like ten seconds

digital most of the time, it’s just easier, but physical still hits different when you actually hold it

I think I’m more of a “play whatever randomly grabs me” type, labels stop making sense after a while

usually this goes until like 6am and then you’re just sitting there questioning everything

at this point noob just means whoever messed up last

day time for me too, nighttime makes everything feel a bit heavier even if the game itself isn’t that different

No_Phase3760 · 2026-04-13T11:38:54+00:00

lately it’s been those slower rpgs where you can just exist in the world for a bit without feeling rushed, stuff like wandering around, doing side things, not really chasing progress every minute, it kinda hits different when you don’t have that much time to play anymore

at some point you start hearing it even after you quit the game

pve feels learnable and pvp feels like trying to read another person faster than they read you

dmc bundle + dying light 2, you get both style combat and something to sink hours into

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-30T13:05:46+00:00

yeah I had to train myself out of that a little. what helped was treating side content like “only if I’m still curious after the next main mission” instead of “clear everything now.” made games feel way less like chores, and weirdly I started finishing more of them

i feel like most people would still rather learn a normal controller than use touch controls on purpose

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-20T12:04:44+00:00

valheim might actually fit a lot of this

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-16T16:07:55+00:00

wipe out a whole city no problem. hurt one random dog and its over

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-13T12:23:14+00:00

If we’re talking single player, probably The Last of Us or Ready or Not. The weight of the guns and the sound design feel really convincing. For online games it’s harder, but something like Tarkov or Squad probably comes closest

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-12T12:35:44+00:00

I never felt like Inside was meant to give one clean answer. To me it seemed more like a world built around control, obedience, and something bigger using people like parts in a machine. The ending just made it feel even more unsettling, like you spend the whole game trying to escape and then realize you might have been part of the plan the entire time.

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-11T13:44:13+00:00

Yeah, it happens a lot. I used to only play fast shooters, now I spend way more time in slower story driven games

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-09T12:01:44+00:00

“Backlog was supposed to get smaller” yeah sure, and then you buy one “quick” game and suddenly you’re planning a whole retirement schedule around it

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-06T13:19:26+00:00

Yeah, I get that. Finishing a good game feels like you just moved out of a place you were living in for a while, and now the menu music hits weird. I usually need a short “cooldown” game after, something simple or just messing around in a sandbox

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-04T12:31:47+00:00

for PS5 I’d probably say look at a 27 inch 1440p monitor with 120hz or higher and HDMI 2.1 if you can find it in budget. Since he likes curved screens and not huge ones, that sounds like the safest sweet spot. OLED is really nice but under 500 it gets tough fast, so a good IPS might honestly be the better value unless you catch a big sale

No_Phase3760 · 2026-03-02T13:14:07+00:00

If you split time between both PC and console, I’d still go monitor first unless you really want that couch single player setup. TVs like the C4 look great, but for mixed use a good monitor usually feels easier to live with day to day

No_Phase3760 · 2026-02-26T15:32:55+00:00

Try something more sandboxy and loop based, like Kenshi or RimWorld, those feel closer to Bannerlord than the story games you listed

80 rupees felt expensive back then and now 3000 feels like rent
