I'm immunocompromised and continuing to stay at home and single player games really help me get through it. I've played a lot of games (especially the past 2.5 years), so dig deep and give me a good recommendation that you don't think I've played.

I'm into most genres, but not super into loot games or ubisoft open world style games. Love smaller indie titles. I love some JRPGs (Trails, DQ11, Yakuza, FF), hate others (Persona). Yeah I just said I hate persona, get over it. BoTW , Death Stranding, and Elden Ring are some of my favorite "big" games recently. The Trails JRPG series is probably my favorite overall series.

I just finished up Return to Monkey Island and really liked it (was a big fan of LucasArts adventures in the 90s), but I can't play back to pack point and click games so maybe cool off on that.

Been playing a lot of Ooblets while working out lately, so probably not gonna be receptive to any Animal Crossing / Stardew style games rn. Btw check out Ooblets if you like those kinds of games.

    You're definitely hitting on a lot of games I really enjoy! I had a great time with the new Deus Ex titles (even despite some of their flaws). Into the Breach was also great, I should go back and play with the new stuff.

    Fashion Police Squad is one I missed, but I see it got put out by No More Robots so I'm intrigued.

      Definitely check it out! The movement's extremely smooth, it's got a Doom Eternal Style weapons system and the character models are pretty hilarious.

      Also the Banner Saga would definitely be down your alley if you liked Into the Breach - 2 and 3 have survival modes and a custom battle creator so they're a bit more replayable, but if you have all 3 you can import your decisions from previous ones in story mode, which is pretty cool. And the art is really nice.
