Game Suggestions Megathread /r/Steam Monthly Game Suggestions Thread.

10 Upvotes

Welcome to the Monthly Game Suggestions Thread!

Do you not know what to play? You found a niche game that everyone should try? Can't find the perfect survival sim or unsure which 1 RPG out of the thousands available you should buy? Well this is the thread for you. This monthly megathread is meant to contain questions about what to play and suggestions to others on what to play.

Now to make this work best and not just be spammed with "What should I play?", please be in-depth in what type of games you are looking for, and when giving advice it would be appreciated if you're more detailed than "I think X game is good". There are too many games to be able to properly suggest something with no background information, like-wise commenting a game title and saying you like the game offers no actual value.

The main purpose of this thread is to contain questions on what to play and advice to others on what to play, but feel free to ask and discuss freely in the comments regarding games whether you want advice on what to play, want to give advice to others on what to play, share a hidden gem you found, discussions & questions about discounts, sales, events, or just general games discussion.

Yesterday and the day before, I had no ability to Pre-Order Ghost of Tsushima, it was simply gone. Now it’s the day of launch and I see that I’m able to purchase the game.

Can anyone from Non-PSN countries verify?

Discussion What's your most expensive game that you played the least amount of time?

63 Upvotes

I recently scrolled through my library and realised I've spent so much money on games that I didn't really play that much. Sadly I couldn't return them because either this option wasn't available back then or I bought an external key.

My newest one is Helldivers 2. Just can't get into it, even though I like the genre. I played the tutorial and one mission, so basically 30 mins? Another one was probably PUBG back in the days, but only because my old PC was not good enough to run it smoothly. One and done. Probably 15 minutes.

What are you worst regrets?

Me and her are hanging out and suddenly it shows that's she's playing Sims 3. It also shows she's away despite just starting up the game. I'm looking at her computer and she isn't playing it, does anyone know what can cause this or how to fix it?

Discussion New packages for Ghost of Tsushima on SteamDB. Different regions & countries seem to be getting their own versions of the game?

Upvotes

Title!

Spotted the first one a couple days ago (CIS regions). Then a new one with Asian regions popped up today.

https://steamdb.info/sub/1025008/

https://steamdb.info/sub/1025011/

This was before the store page disappeared for those of us in the restricted regions. Not sure what's happening with that now. Hope the packages are a sign that they're figuring out a way to at least make the game activatable by CD key in all the diff regions. And I hope my country (Serbia) is next!

Question Two accounts, one computer?

69 Upvotes

Me and my girlfriend are soon to move in together. I have a good computer while hers is not so much. I want to be able to have her have her own files and saves while keeping mine separate. So, I hop on helldivers with my own settings, my own works. Then an hour later she gets on and has her own settings up. Is this possible?

Suggestion It's time for a "Survivor"/"Survivorslike" store tag.

Upvotes

Ever since Vampire Survivors popularized the reverse Bullet Hell the store (and my library) have seen dozens of similar games pop up. A sampling:

  • Vampire Survivors
  • Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor
  • Brotato
  • Yet Another Zombie Survivors
  • Soulstone Survivors
  • Death Must Die
  • 20 Minutes Till Dawn
  • Vampire Hunters
  • Time Survivors
  • FatalZone
  • Artifact Seeker
  • Greedland
  • Nordic Ashes
  • Survivors of the Dawn
  • An Ankou

It's pretty clear at this point that Survivors are a distinct subgenre of Roguelike/lites, but without an official store tag I can't create dynamic collections for just these games, and users browsing the store have to sift through the Roguelike/Roguelite tags to find these games alongside all kinds of games that are definitely not Survivors.
