Not sure who was making this one? Thanks to Goddess for doing the last couple.

    Thanks for the reccos! Unpacking looks pretty chill, on the wishlist! Divinity doesn’t seem like my type of game (I don’t really like RPGs either for the most part), same with Pathfinder. Rimworld I see recommended everywhere (along with Rust and factorio). Rimoworlds graphics remind me a lot of Prison Architects (from a quick look at the trailer). Never played dragon age

    Dorfromantik (holy hell I’m never gonna remember how to spell that) looks quite good though! I’m a little on the fence about it, but the graphics look beautiful and they have trains! Trains = automatic buy (well, not quite, but close to it)

    Thanks again for the reccos!

      Hm, let me poke you on that, actually! When you say you don’t like RPGs - what have you previously tried? DOS2 et al, as CRPGs, are quite different to ARPGs. If you’re not used to them, don’t bother with the recommendations for Pillars of Eternity or Pathfinder - but I’d genuinely consider trying Divinity: Original Sin 2. It’s got very simple combat (which you can make easier/harder as you like) that’s very fun, and it’s turn-based. So instead of having to run in and deal with a chaotic mess, you can think your way through with some level of strategy.

        All good! I’ve been thinking on this (I wasn’t just ignoring you!) over the last few hours, and I don’t think I have tried any specifically (I’ve gotten various RPGs through free sales on Steam/Epic before and have probably opened a couple, but I couldn’t name them if I tried). But just looking at the store pages, it doesn’t really appeal to me much. I’m probably an oddity though

          Genuinely would be a good idea to try. Dos2 in particular is a very comedic game, so it’d be a fun shout!
