    Cyberpunk ran like a top on my 1060 when most people thought it was literally melting their PCs. I guess I got lucky. It's not at all close to what they promised, and it's kinda groundhog day after the 30hr mark as far as missions go, but if you catch it on sale it's way worth it.

    I really enjoyed Far Cry 3/4/5, and am going to pick 6 up today, it's $20 off.

    Days Gone was pretty decent.

    Control is awesome.

    Kingdom Come Deliverance is a great game, but man, is it horribly frustrating. I actually broke a mouse on that one.

    I'd give Fallout 4 a go as well, and mod it as you see fit to get rid of annoyances.

    If you go with Skyrim, strongly recommend you check out wabbajack and their modlists. Fairly simple to install and massively improves the game. https://www.wabbajack.org/#/

    Also.

    Final Fantasy XV is pretty good.

    Dragon Age Inquisition has already been mentioned.

    As mentioned above, Kingdom Come: Deliverance. Not only a highly enjoyable game, but gorgeous looking as well.

    You might like Mad Max as well. Personally, while I'm never a fan of driving in games, I do love this one especially for its driving and combat.

    Dragon's Dogma is pretty great too, albeit not what you would exactly call hardware intensive.

    And for all the faults that modern Assassin's Creed games have, Unity, Origins and Odyssey feature some of the most beautiful environments.

    Deus Ex + Human Revolution + Mankind Divided are also pretty fantastic single player games.

    Batman Arkham series - Arkham Knight is gonna be the one you want if you're after pure visuals.

    Dishonored is pretty good - Dishonored 2 is sorta okayish. Technically, better looking, but didn't enjoy it as much as the first one.

    And on that note, get Arkane's Prey as well.

    Dying Light is pretty fun too, one of those zombie apocalypse games I actually enjoyed.

    The new Hitman games might be what you're looking for as well, pretty gorgeous looking.

    Then there's the Metro series - 2033, Last Light and Exodus. Good single player games, Exodus being the most visually impressive.

    NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... - not really all that graphically intensive, but fantastic story. If you like it, head straight into NieR Automata.

    It's great to hear that you've upgraded your gaming setup and are ready to dive into some awesome single-player titles. While I've been enjoying games on my phone lately, I'm always on the lookout for new recommendations. Speaking of which, have you checked out the post - is blackout bingo app legit? It's good to do some research before diving in. As for immersive open-world story modes with impressive graphics, The Witcher III, RDR2, and Skyrim are fantastic choices! If you're open to other ideas, I'd highly recommend titles like Horizon Zero Dawn, Ghost of Tsushima, and Assassin's Creed Valhalla. They offer captivating worlds and gripping narratives.

    Boy oh boy. First of all, grab Hogwarts Legacy. The story is meh but the open world and the atmosphere is top tier and it will take advantage of every single bit of your rig.

    If you like crpgs or are a fan of DnD-like games, look up Owlcat Games studio and its two Pathfinder adaptations: Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous. They're single player, very good and will keep tou busy for a while.

    Personal rec after that for a shorter but very fun single player survival/horror experience, look up Subnautica and give it a try.

    I've recently finished Nier Automata, and I have very pleasant feelings after the passage, in some moments it's a bit boring, but the plot is completely captivating. so I'm sure it's worth playing.

    I also advise you to play the new Diablo 4, it's also a very nice game. Dark setting, maybe you will like it)

    Hello, I haven't been on the site for a long time because I had a lot to do... And here I am again with this question. I don't play games much at all, but sometimes I want to improve my weapons, armor, etc. (when I play diablo). Recently, a colleague advised me to use the services of this boost service, so that when I don't have time to play, they will take care of pumping my character. What do you think about these "offices", how liquid are they or is it possible to pump your characters yourself?

    I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt that you aren't shilling for this "service."

    Giving any 3rd party access to your gaming accounts, to which irl and real money info is typically attached, is moronic in the extreme.

    Like... bro.

    I don't even know which part of this is the worst: what Khan brought up, the fact that there are people who buy a game and then pay more money so they don't have to play it, or that there are games so tedious and grindy that there is a market for people whom you can hire to grind the tedious game for you so you can skip to the fun parts.

    Shit's messed up.

    I mean it's probably just a clever shill, but...

    Bruh... Just play the game. Even in MMOs it's sad to microtransactionally purchase gear and levels. (I've played a shit fucking metric ton of hours of MMOs in the past - thousands and thousands of hours in Runescape and OSRS, and thousands and thousands of hours in Guild Wars). And, in this case, where you pay someone to level you and gear you up, it's worse than sad. It's a good way to get the account stolen and all of the shit that you just paid for is gone and all of the gear is sold. Just play the goddamn game. If you don't have time then you don't have time - welcome to adulthood. You're not going to be able to sink as much time as younger players or other players with no responsibilities unless you're willing to shirk on those very real responsibilities.. That's life, dude.

    But in what is essentially a goddamn single player game?

    Bruh. Play when you can play. Enjoy it when you get the time to enjoy it.

    Basically...

    ...Bruh...
