Dead Cells and Beat Saber. I don’t know that I’ll ever tire of dead cells, and beat saber my husband and I love to play together, trading off after three songs like we used with DDR when we were kids

Factorio. I don’t even need a second pick

wahming ,

The expansion, presumably

darelik ,

Indubitably

CptEnder ,

Yeah I mean you’re not gonna have time to eat or sleep, let alone play an entire other game.

letsgo ,

I need a change of scenery once in a while. I’ve been on a slow Dwarf Fortress - Factorio - Minecraft loop for about the last 15 years. Currently playing Minecraft, specifically the Enigmatica 6 Expert modpack which I started nearly 2 years ago.

Godort ,

I’ve never heard of Enigmatica before. The last expert modpack I went through was FTB Interactions, which also took me about 2 years to complete.

How is it?

No man’s sky and palworld

Unforeseen , in You can only pick 2 games from steam to play for the rest of your life, what games are they?

Factorio and project zomboid

Protoknuckles , in You can only pick 2 games from steam to play for the rest of your life, what games are they?

Deep Rock Galactic and Pinball FX3. I’m tempted to put Baldurs Gate 3, but once you’ve done a number of runs, I feel like you’ll be done with it.

Anticorp , in You can only pick 2 games from steam to play for the rest of your life, what games are they?

Baldur’s Gate 3, and um… Warthunder. Maybe Elite Dangerous instead of Warthunder. But why can’t I play the $650 worth of other games that I bought and barely played?

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night Octopath Traveler 2

dracs , in You can only pick 2 games from steam to play for the rest of your life, what games are they?

Apex and Rimworld

VerseAndVermin ,

What if no other people pick Apex as one of their two games? Lonely servers.

kethali , in You can only pick 2 games from steam to play for the rest of your life, what games are they?

Assetto Corsa (assuming mods are included) and Factorio (again, with mods, but to a lesser degree).

Satisfactory & Mass Effect

Breezy ,

Mass effect legendary edition is one game with 3 games inside, so does that still count?

scrubbles ,
@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

…I count it

So I’m going for longevity. These two definitely wouldn’t be my first choices for top games.

Elder Scrolls Online and Minecraft. There is enough story, social, and creativity that I would hope it works out.

Once Baldurs Gate 3 gets solid modding, and assuming modding is allowed, that takes a spot.

itsnicodegallo ,

Does BG3 not? I used tons of mods that seemed regularly updated.

VerseAndVermin ,

I could be wrong, I haven’t modded yet, but I think official support is in the future. That’s when I suspect it will really shine.

itsnicodegallo ,

I just looked it up, and the first thing that came up was a ton of articles about a series of tweets Larian put out today explaining that they’re working on official mod support, but that they’d like to ask people to stop being toxic assholes and threatening their devs.

So I guess they don’t have official mod support, but the mods that are and have been out for months are amazing. I highly recommend Native Camera Tweaks, WASD Movement, 5e Spells, and Hexblade Warlock (gish class that makes your spellcasting modifier and melee stat both Charisma so you’re SAD instead of MAD on both Str/Dex and Int/Cha). There’s also a bunch of other QoL mods that are worth getting too.

whereBeWaldo ,

Minecraft is not on steam unfortunately and I don’t know how wise it is to choose a multiplayer only game like ESO since they will eventually shut down the servers

VerseAndVermin ,

Ah forgot the steam part.

I figure I would get bored of ESO in 15 or so years when it closes. I suspect any game will lose me at a point. For the time it’s online, it would offer a lot.

I’ll sub Minecraft out for No Man’s Sky. Valheim was close to taking the spot but it just doesn’t ring as fun when friends aren’t around. I would pace myself big time.

Rain World!!!!!
Second place is hard to do though! Oxygen Not Included, I guess?

Xenny ,

Oxygen not included has infinite replayability. I find so much joy just watching the plants grow in that game.

It was close for me between ONI and Darkest Dungeon, but I've basically "solved" DD to the point where I need 120 (I counted) constantly rotating mods to even have anything to challenge me.... I'm not sure I'd ever "finish" ONI! I feel like i've barely scratched the surface, and i've put in hundreds of hours. (I love them both, though.)

That it's cute and has so many little random thoughtful details like how the hatch eggs are as big as the hatches (ouch) definitely helps too.

Honestly, I'd be pretty sad with zero city-builders. And Rain World is non-negotiable, hahah.
