2 picks for me: Stardew Valley, most boring shit ever, I don’t see the appeal, seriously how the hell did that thing sold 20 million copies?
And Witcher 3, I own that game since 2019 and I regret buying it, funny thing is that I’ve finished Dragon Age 1 and 2, which are kinda same genre but I actually enjoyed those games. I guess the old BioWare sauce carried those games unlike Witcher where there’s nothing to enjoy in its massive pointless world.
Adding to that, tactical games, like X-COM or Final Fantasy Tactics, rely a lot on player strategy and knowledge of what he’s up against and his own team.
Knights of the Old Republic and Dragon Age both have an “active/pause” system, the combat plays out in real time, but you can pause to think and react at your leisure
