My OLED is coming in today, so hyped. Will definitely help with the commute. First off is finishing up Disco Elysium, then maybe playing Edith Finch? Anyone have any other recs? Besides Hades 1, I guess.

I cannot get into disco elysium no matter how hard I try

It took me a bunch of tries, too. It's not really a "fun" game, more like a visual and interactive novel. Once I got the hang of the dice rolls being the biggest part of the game, and knowing/remembering where to seek them out, and getting used to the map, it became easy to pick up and put back down. It's amazing, but not easy to get going.

I play Stardew Valley on mine :)

What genre? Those are some peculiar games. I guess you might like Strange Horticulture.

Otherwise for a mix bag: TPS/Adventure: Horizon Zero Dawn Arcade racing: Hot Wheels Unleashed TPG: Baldur's Gate 3 FPS: Halo Master Chief Collection

Thanks, I'll check out strange horticulture. I'm looking for arthouse games in a sense. Outer Wilds completely changed me, for example, and I want to try to recreate that feeling, but I don't want an Outer Wilds clone, like how Lords of the Fallen is to Dark Souls.

I want something that's going to destroy me and make me think, or just be ultra fun and different from anything else I've played.

For something different you can try The Room games. Definitely not life changing but atypical.
