Are there any simulators that are so immersive that it parallels real life? Like flying simulators, space simulators, etc. Those that require actual skill in flying, planning, and mathematics.
Something really hardcore would be awesome. Also, something that lets you freely play without a real goal if needed, since you would need to get a grasp of the game and immerse yourself.

i'm playing the yakuza series right now. it's good. i am having an excellent time my dudes.
if you have no idea what to expect from these games,
just imagine like Miami Vice, Scarface, The Godfather, something like that, but translated directly to a video game. there's a whole lot of talking, cinema cliches, ultra violence, and a protagonist that is pretty unfitting and oddly humane and ethical so the audience can sympathize and self-insert.
play on the hardest difficulty available every time unless you enjoy turning your brain off like the retarded mobile phone playing japanese retard that's the primary consumer of these.
if you own a ps4: start with 0 or kiwami. 0 is a prequel to 1, and kiwami is a remake of 1 (that's loads better than the original, i'm going to be honest). a remake of 2 is coming out soon as well.
if you don't own a ps4: emulate 1 and 2 with a ps2 emulator. there are undub ISO's you can download to avoid the shitty english voice acting.
i have been hesitant to play this for years because personally i find japan's romanticizing of these nigger slime to be disgusting. yakuza all deserve to be buried in shallow graves. but thus far, the game has depicted them as psychopathic, superficial, backstabbing children that prey on their own communities and make everyone's life shit. which is true to reality. so i am okay with it.

For anyone who has never played it, I fully recommend Arcanum: Of Steamwork and Magick Obscure.
I played this so many times in my teens. It's an RPG which takes place in a world where magic and technology exist alongside one another, though not always comfortably. There are Elves, Men, Orcs, Dwarves and dozens of beasts lurking in the wild to assault you.
You gain XP as you complete missions both major and minor, some for the sake of the narrative and some for the sake of enjoyment or experience. You essentially opt to become a "magic type" by learning spells, potions and such or a "technological type" by learning to use guns, producing mechanical traps and so forth. You can attract a small group of followers, including a stray dog you save from being beaten up (if you know where to find him in time). You battle zombies, wraiths, goblins, giant spiders, dark elves and tons more.
The central plot is that the zephyr on which you were travelling crashes after being attacked by two planes. You are the sole survivor of this crash, and discovering you there among the wreckage is a guy who belongs to a religion which believes you to be the Chosen One (cliched I know) prophesied to rise from the ashes etc. You fight your way to a nearby town, where the guy's teacher, a senior wizard, has been forced to flee after being attacked at the inn. From there on in you and your buddy travel across the (giant) map, visiting the modern city of Tarant, the ancient and dishevelled kingdom of Dernholm, the small mountain village of Stillwater, and several others towns and cities, each with its own character and set of mysteries to solve.
The atmosphere of the game is rather bleak, and the soundtrack (available on youtube) is very melancholy which I absolutely love. Although it may appear dated to younger players, I find its basic aesthetic to be quiet comfortable and underwhelming.
If you are a fan of Lord of the Rings, you probably will enjoy it.
No.41227
>>41224Arcanum is a very flawed game that's really worth playing only if good writing is enough for you to put up with horrid gameplay (and we're talking about writing that's not as good as Planescape with combat quite significantly worse than it) and graphics that were pretty poor even at the time. It's a good game but I'm not sure if I would recommend it for most people, it appeals only to a fairly small niche audience that values writing over everything else, and at that point really you might as well go for a gamebook.

No.41230
>>41227In what way is the gameplay "horrid" (unless you forgot to enable the turn-based mode, that is)? It's pretty typical for rpgs of that generation.
My literally only problem with Arcanum was the stupid ally AI.
No.41246
>>41227What's wrong with the gameplay? You can either fight in turn-based mode or in live action mode (which I prefer).
In my opinion it is one of very few games which creates a world which is both recognizably mundane (and therefore realistic) and also full of interesting detail, an awesome backstory, a great sense of humour (the character names etc) and much more besides. And the fact that you can complete the game having only completed around 30% of the available tasks / missions is great IMO as it allows so much to be discovered. For example, rescuing the group of Iron Clan dwarves trapped by dark creatures in their mine kingdom is the result of several other smaller missions, each irrelevant to the main narrative. Or discovering the location of Magnus's ancestral home and watching his delight as he finds out that he isn't just some wandering, rootless, pathetic dwarf by an ancestor to a great dwarf kingdom. Or breaking into the prisons at Dernholm and talking to the various inmates and becoming a master lock-picker by doing so if that's what you've been training yourself to become. It's just an awesome game. And it also develops your moral compass IMO. I first played it in my early teens, and again and again you are forced to analyze a situation and decide what is the moral thing to do, even though it isn't always clear. And your decision affects your narrative from that moment onwards (e.g. whether you help the priest in Shrouded Hills destroy the machine, or report him to the police for asking you). I must admit that one time I saved the game and then decided I would just travel around Tarant to see how many NPCs I could take out before my small posse was annihilated. But when I started doing that I felt immense guilt and shame, and loaded the game immediately to my restore point.
No.41247
>>41230>>41246It simply doesn't work both neither in turn-based nor real-time. It's horribly unbalanced and has a ton of weird or downright bad design decisions, some things make it break down completely (harm), lack of the ability to command your AI leads to many clusterfuck situations, displayed to-hit percentages are completely busted, I could go on for hours. I have never really seen anyone defend Arcanum's combat before, from my experience just about everyone agrees that it ranges from barely adequate to gamebreaking depending on character build and personal tolerance for bullshit. Troika could seemingly either do good writing with bad gameplay (arcanum and VtMB) or good gameplay but shitty writing (ToEE), never both.

Arx Fatalis has a unique rune-based magic system, barely any customization though but it is a great game. If you like turn-based combat I guess Divinity: Original Sin also qualifies, you can do some very fancy elemental combos pretty much every fight and there is a lot of spells. If you're okay with a roguelike Tales of Maj'Eyal has some pretty fucking crazy spellcasting classes - chronomancers, psionics, celestials who literally use the sun and moon to burn their enemies, all sorts of wacky and fun shit.

No.41336
>>41335Something to keep in mind though is that while DnD mages get stupidly powerful by the end they're not exactly good nor very fun for a significant while.

Kid Dracula is one of my favorites, also for the GB. Levels are fun to explore and there's actually quite a challenge in some of them. You mentioned you want cute so Trip World is a must try, though I think you might know that one already. For the SNES you have Melfand Stories, two titles, again, worth checking out if you're looking after cute, but those titles are more arcadey in nature. If you're interested in some platforming with puzzles, Samurai Kid is pretty good. Finally on the Sega side you have Tails Adventure for the Game Gear.

Games with a good story and characters?
AND/OR
Games that have given you a strong emotional reaction?
I finished my 2nd playthrough of Mother 3 a week ago and I can't think of any games I could play next that could match the level of storytelling. I somehow felt very sentimental at the end of the game (which is how I felt at the end of Mother 2 as well), which rarely happens to me.
To give you an idea of the type of games I'm looking for, here's some that I've already played that do it for me:
- Chrono Trigger
- BioShock
- Deus Ex
- Half Life 2
- Star Wars KOTOR 1 + 2
- Psychonauts
I would really appreciate it if you could share some titles! Any genres or years are fine, though I have a preference for games that are for PC or for console games that can be emulated on PC.

Pathologic has some of the best writing I've ever seen, really weird and unique game, if you like it you can also try The Void, by the same studio (Icepick lodge).
Planescape Torment also has great writing, but you'll have to deal with walls upon walls of text, and stay the hell away from the "sequel".

>>45731Fire Pro World is perfect for what you are after!
Many people buy the various Fire Pro games not even to play the games themselves but simply watch and sim the matches because the AI/logic system is so good.
If you are like many Wizards out there you are probably either a fan of anime or comic books or other fantasy literature/characters, etc.
So just saying you can go to the Steam Workshop for Firepro or hell just create your favorite fantasy characters yourself if you want and set them up to fight using logic you expertly program into them and then set up a CPU Vs. CPU match and see who wins.
You can make the ring look however you want to along with the turnbuckles (corner pads) and change the color of the ropes, etc and not only that you can have whatever background music you are willing to download or use from your existing MP3 library for it.
So yeah just pointing out Fire Pro World isn't exclusive to needing to use real life or created wrestlers.
You can literally use or create any kind of character that you want.
When the AI/logic is programmed well enough matches can sometimes go for a long time like say 60 minutes or longer but thats usually a rarity and the in game clock runs a bit fast so the real time when it goes 60 minutes is more like 30 minutes but just saying the game has a lot of fun and intrigue to offer and most important of all vast customizeability.
There's mods out there that can make it even better.

I played only a handful of games throughout my life, preferring to stick to a few primarily multiplayer games. Most of them lost their playerbase, were patched and changed to hell by the developers or simply became stale to me. I have nothing to play now, I lack clear reference points I can rely on to find games I can potentially like, I don't want to spend money on games and after having accustomed to Steam I feel rather uncomfortable downloading games off smaller/public torrent sites that don't verify their uploads for viruses and other bullshit. I could give emulation a try, I thoroughly enjoyed playing vidya that I missed out on as a kid.
To sum it up, I'm looking for a game that:
- Isn't demanding in terms of system requirements
- Focuses more on action/combat, requires active player input, basically everything that isn't strategy/RPG, I guess; although I did enjoy Mario & Luigi games very much because of the dodging/parrying mechanics.
- Isn't set in a Fantasy/Medieval setting
- Is relaxing, you can zone out and play
- Is atmospheric
* Can be from older consoles (4-6 Gen, preferably)
* Offers Metroidvania-style free exploration, preferably
* Is Singleplayer, preferably
I'd also love to hear Torrent sites wizards recommend downloading games from. I'm registered on Playbits, but from what I've gathered the way things are done there is you upload whatever and no verification is done apart from the rating system, so I fear there might be malware, same goes for Piratebay. I'm a complete idiot when it comes to technology, so forgive me if I'm wrong or excessively paranoid.

>>46047I'll second the recs the other 2 guys gave you.
Monster Hunter is really good and possible to play singe player in most games. World however might not necessarily have as much content until the new DLC comes out in a few months. So you would have to buy the base game + that.
Besides that you could try the earlier games that have G rank, Freedom Unite you could easily spend hundreds of hours on. 3U and 4U, also both good. You could try XX on the switch, I am not sure how much content that has since I haven't played it, but I imagine it's similar.
Warriors series is also really good. I've mostly played the Samurai Warriors series. 1 is good but it doesn't have a ton of content and the character/stage variety is pretty limited. 2 and 2XL are the best of the series IMO, good mix of difficulty with character and stage variety. 3 and 4 have more content but they're not as difficult.
For Empires I've only played Samurai Warriors Empires 2, it was good but I don't know remember it having that much content. Maybe 3 and 4 have more.
For Dynasty Warriors I've only tried 8XL, but I'd say that definitely has enough to keep you occupied for over 100 hours.
The rest of the warriors series I haven't tried.
To a certain degree all these are kind of repetitive, they will involve you hunting the same monsters or playing the same stages again at increasing stages of difficulty to get materials for armor and weapons (in the case of Monster Hunter) or rarer weapons and items (in the case of Warriors games). But if you're okay with that you'll probably like them.
No.46295
>>46293Personally I prefer the Empires versions because I'm not stuck with limited number of stages like with Sengoku Basara, I prefer endless placement possibilities to the same historical placements, Xtreme mode from XL expansions and the castle modes were great too oh and the create a warrior (CAW) is quite addicting too (not in SW2E though that game had other things to make it entertaining like the events among historical charas, the formation gimmick and others)

Other than that, I don't really know. A lot of the time I find myself laughing while gaming only at things that are inadvertently, or otherwise unintentionally funny.

I'm finally getting a PS4 soon and I'm wondering what good jRPGs there are available for the console (FFXV and DQXI I'm already getting for certain), the less action-RPG the better but I understand that action RPG style has grown in favor in RPGs in general. But, any ones that are perhaps a little light on that aspect by comparison to straight up action games with some RPG elements, would be favorable, if you get what I'm saying there.
Also, is the PS4 version of Subnautica decent, does it translate well to being controlled via controller ect?

>>48667>what kind of games do you like?Just about everything other the RTS games and really old text based adventure games.
I don't mind grinding if I actually like the gameplay, but if the gameplay it's self isn't fun then grinding only compounds that. It is the reason why I dropped games like cult simulator and certain Korean f2p mmos in the late 00s.
But if I like the gameplay then I can spend months grinding away at a game I like.
Also every game that isn't super short tends to be "somewhat repetitive", which isn't usually a bad thing as long as the gameplay is good or there is enough content to justify the added length.
To say what I don't want is something like most idle clicker games would be bad. That would be all grind, no gameplay, and hyper repetitive with no content to justify it other then watching numbers go up.
I also wouldn't want to play a rts as a easy chill out game, since playing those feels like doing homework to me back in my school boy days. Not a feel I would like to repeat in my down time.
And I just don't like most old school text based adventure games because they are just shit imo.

I want a game where you go on an adventure. Something like Demon's souls (not the gameplay meme like all the souls knock offs) the sense of adventure. Can be 3D or 2D. Can't be a rogue like. No dialog wheels or endless cut scenes.

Im looking for something similar to Bully. By that i mean a comfy, non serious/dark, stress free game. My favorite part of bully is the nerd missions and the comic shop save point. So maybe something in that vain? Obviously theres gta, yakuza, saints row etc but those are too serious, im looking for something light hearted like bully.

>>40331, if you're on PC play yakuza 0 and then yakuza kiwami.
>>40399>>40395saya no uta is a comfy VN, by the same person who made madoka magica, never watched it but saya no uta is a very interesting game that had me thinking about the story a while after I finished it
with regards to games I would recommend, I had fun playing VA-11-HALL-A and a lot of fun playing the original dark souls a few years back, don't waste your money on the remaster it looks worse in some bits.
>>41717the games I had most fun on co op was factorio though I would have had as much fun playing it on single player.
if you like factorio try zachtronics games or getting into CS/discrete mathematics.
I would like to get into arcanum or underrail but am too low IQ for either, whenever I tried to ask for help about them online I was responded with "fuck off troll" I dunno if the community is schizophrenic or if I am that retarded.
