So my other half is reaching the end of Cult of the Lamb and needs something new. Most of my recommendations have been hits, but I’m a bit unsure of what to suggest next.
Games she likes:
Borderlands 2 (loves this) Borderlands 3 Wonderlands Terraria Pokémon (most of the recents except the chibi remake) Shin Megami Tensei V Slay The Spire Diablo III Skyrim Divinity Original Sin 2
Preferably Switch games. Tends to avoid brighter simplistic aesthetic games (Pokémon tends to be an exception). Also really prefers to play a female protagonist. Has already seen me play through Control and Horizon Zero Dawn/Forbidden West, and isn’t really interested in Metroid Prime.
Thanks for the help
Its a bit dated, but the Metroid Prime series is incredibly good and should hit all your marks.
Also had a lot of fun with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge. More on the Diablo III side of the spectrum, but its a great game if you want to get in on the action, too.
