What asynchronous games, or games with asynchronous features would you recommend?

A recent example being Death Stranding and its light social features of indirectly building/maintaining structures or leaving helpful equipment around. The Souls' games message system is another even lighter example.

I enjoy these indirect, optional social features in some games, but they seem few and far between.

Preferably no MMOs/always online game recommendations. Thanks in advance!

Its not really as... Inactive as the examples.

When someone raids your base, they are physically there as if your base was just another mission in single player, against your soldiers decked out in whatever gear you set them to use.

If you are online at the time, you can choose defend your base personally and engage in straight up real-time PVP.

I've been playing it again on PS5 without a PS+ subscription, and it says I can still do the passive base stuff including raiding others bases, but not the real time PVP which makes me wonder: what happens if I raid someone's base and they are online and choose to defend it? Is it just gonna kick me the fuck out?

i couldn't remember if there was active pvp. i just remember never actually running into it in my time playing.
