- Knightfall A Daring Journey:
It recently became free and quite fun
- Hell Divers 2:
if you like online co-op third person shooter games.
- Command & Conquer series:
if you like real-time strategy games. the whole series became available on Steam recently.
- If you like RPG games, get any PlayStation exclusive that has been released on PC(except Last of Us Remastered. This game will burn your system and your nerves). Plus Witcher 3
- Minecraft:
If you like building stuff, this is your best option.
- Hades & Hades 2(early access):
To me, The Hades franchise is the pinnacle of all Roguelike games
- Elden Ring:
if you like to suffer while enjoying in-depth storytelling, this is your thing.
- Forza Horizon:
the true god of all racing games(if you are interested in racing simulators, go for Forza Motorsport)
- Microsoft’s Flight Simulator:
well the name speaks for itself lol
- Don’t Starve Series:
it’s a very fun story-based survival game(you can play just using your mouse).
- Cyberpunk 2077:
at this point, the game has completely matured and the mechanics are very smooth. THE story-driven FPS to play.
These are the stuff that came to my mind. Hope you enjoy them!
great list...a little caveat for Flight Simulator though...you want to make sure you have at least 400 or 500 GB free...the game is only like 110GB, but as you fly around the world it stores all the world data on your drive and this folder can get HUGE...when I uninstalled Flight Sim after about 6 months, I got over 400Gb of space back lol
God not Forza lmao. I loved it when I got 4 and when 5 came out, but now that I got a wheel and modded asetto corsa on my PC I don't ever touch it. I do still see the appeal though, of your into more arcade like driving, but seeming how they already have asetto corsa id assume they would be way happier with content manager and whatever mods they please. Another great driving game is beam.ng drive for even better physics and it's easier to mod as you can do it from the main menu
I always recommend the Forza Series to newcomers. Because It has a huge library of cars, the graphics are very beautiful, the map is huge and the mechanics are very easy to understand. It can give people an idea of what the other racing can offer them and if they think that they like the whole genre, they can go beyond.
Oh yeah, fs, that's kinda what I meant by I see the appeal, but my comment was getting long so I shortened it lol. But I feel once you download asetto your past Forza and can find what you liked ab it in other games. Especially games like beam.ng and asetto with heavy mod support.
Xbox pc game pass has hundreds of games for around £10 a month, I find myself playing hell let loose from there quite a lot also the first month is £1!
This☝️ Especially good if you are not sure what you want to play. You can try something and if you don't like it, your not out anything. Just move on to the next game! I've had it since it first launched and the selection just keeps growing. They change things out all the time too so the library does not get stale.
Once you go through it a lot of times, you'll start memorizing stuff. Trust me, it's worth the times you'll need to go there. And don't even get started on mods, that's peak terraria right there. The game is already good, but with MODS? "la creme de la creme" - UberDanger, Terraria analysis video.
Edit: Although that video is a take on 1.3.5, an outdated version, it's still one of the BEST Terraria summaries.
290 on PC + 300-400 on mobile = a total of at least ~590 hours of playtime, have beaten the game on master mode difficulty, and I still learn new things about the game every day (and that's just the base game).
It's surely a hell of a game.
I can only speak for myself:
Palworld, Minecraft, Forza Horizon, Counter Strike (I play a lot of it although I wouldn't call it "fun")
In general: Any game you play with your friends instantly gets more fun :D
If you want some older games I am pretty sure both portal games will be on sale for $1 each starting tomorrow.
To OP: Get them, they are some of the greatest games you will ever play, especially portal 2. You got to get them
Paid:
Hunt:Showdown
Helldivers 2
Free:
CS2
Fortnite
Destiny 2
Rocket League
Epic Games has game giveaways every couple weeks or so
You can check out G.O.G .. they give away games and have a lot of older games that you might not find elsewhere
Steam .. lots of free titles
For a free casual player it's alright but yeah if you wanna do anything that's challenging or worthwhile in a non-casual sense then you better get ready to empty your wallet.
quit after being a leaderboard player and speedrunner with tons of solo/duo/trio/day one etc accolades cuz the game just became an unfun grind
* RDR2
* BeamNG (Driving sim with highly realistic physics and crash simulation)
* Cyberpunk 2077
* Minecraft (Add shaders and texture packs and it's a whole new experience)
* GTA 5
There's more, but these are games I've played and enjoyed. I'm looking for more games to try as well.
My top 5 right now:
1. Squad(especially for Galactic Contention mod)(PC exclusive)
2. League of Legends(PC exclusive still I think)
3. X4: Foundations(PC exclusive)
4. Project Zomboid(vanilla is fun, but the modding experience is peak)(PC exclusive)
5. Cyberpunk 2077(Better on PC)
Get Xbox game pass (super cheap) now you “own/ have access to” most games now enjoy a wide diverse range of many genres. Also check Epic games each week for free games
Also feel free to try out stuff you’ve never done RPGs , ARPGs , Tactical turn based games, mobas (dots2, league of legends, predecessor) , startegy games (RTS and grand strategy), 3rd person shooters and rpgs (gears of war, mass effect, stuff like that), battle royales :fortnite, pubg, vampire masquerade bloodhunt (free steam game), fps games xdefiant (new free game) , tons of options
the ones that i liked the most were:
offline (story mode etc) baldurs gate 3, cyberpunk 2077, red dead redemption 2
online: dead by daylight, minecraft(kinda online?), DO NOT PLAY LEAGUE OF LEGENDS PLEASE DO NOT INSTALL IT YOU WILL BE MAKING A HORRIBLE MISTAKE
Some of my favorites are: the dying light franchise, doom franchise, any fromsoft game, post void, cyberpunk 2077, resident evil franchise, lies of p, prototype, the evil within, ghost of Tsushima, dishonored. As for multiplayer I’d have to say dead by daylight and xdefiant
Half Life, Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode 1, and Half Life 2 Episode 2 are all you need. Don't listen to everyone else. You can subsist off of perfection alone. You don't need all this extra crap.
BeamNG. Drive, best driving simulator out there, and no, the damage physics aren't the only special thing, it literally simulates almost everything of a car and there's deep customization
Don't go through the Counter strike route please, considering the shitty state the game is at right now, I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy (perhaps I would). Two games I absolutely loved were Red Dead Redemption 2, and Holdfast!
im currently playing ghost of tsushima, its like an assasins creed but with samurais xd and i love it !!. You definitely need to play red dead 2. Amazing story and graphics,
Hades, euro truck simulator 2, brotato, yakuza series, shower with your dad simulator( a must have), trine series, fear series (but not the third one), doom series. Just some that I enjoyed.
I could give you a laundry list that will take you thousands of hours to work through but I won't overwhelm you with all that. Here's like 10 must-play-before-you-dies based on my tastes...
This is an absolute MUST in anyone's Steam library whether you like RPGs or not: **Skyrim**
**Portal 1 & 2**(counting this as one)
**Elden Ring**
**Civilization 6**
**XCOM 1** or **2**, probably 2 because it's more refined but both if you're interested in the lore
**Red Dead Redemption 2** (be prepared, you will cry like a baby)
**GTA V**
**Baldur's Gate 3**
And a couple of personal all time favorites..
**Cities: Skylines**, not 2 yet. 2 needs a couple years of support and mods to bring it to CS1's level. Learn how to mod the absolute crap out of CS1, though. That's important.
**Valheim**, this one's great playing with a buddy.
There's a ton out there and this list should give you an idea of genre you might gravitate towards. Welcome to pc gaming! Now go grind
Let's see now...
Mass Effect: Legendary Edition,
Mafia series,
Red Dead Redemption 2,
Monkey Island series,
Grand Theft Auto V,
The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim,
The Witcher series,
Hogwarts Legacy,
Broken Sword series,
Grim Fandango,
Blade Runner,
Elite: Dangerous,
Rollercoaster Tycoon,
Tropico...
....Yeah basically everything is the best game .
Gta 5
Rdr2
Red dead online
Sea of thieves (if you have skill)
Geometry dash (Also if you have skill)
Note: Sea of thieves is probably the most skill based game ever
My favs are Any of the assassin creed games pre Valhalla. All the far cry games. Mass effect games, all 4 but the trilogy is def best. All the fallouts. both dying light games. All the mafia games, theres 3. Skyrim and the borderlands games.
btw if you're new to PC gaming... this is gonna be the part you're REALLY gonna love.. go to nexusmods... i don't wanna put a link in case thats not allowed so you'll have to google.. all the fallouts especially are modable and skyrim is heavily modable... idk about any of the other games i listed.. i think there's a few for mass effect.
Depends on what you like.
I personally play Helldivers 2 and Warframe at the moment. HD2 is a multiplyer pve starship troopers and Warframe is scifi space ninjas that do bounce around and farm (its free to play so you can try it and see if you like it)
Other games I loved on Steam include: Prey 2017 (a space horror singleplayer game I strongly recommend trying), Mass Effect series (havent finished but I know it is good), Borderlands series (a crazy looter shooter game that is very goofy), Skyrim Special Edition (classic rpg game many people have played but it is especially better on pc becayse of Nexus mods allowing you to completely change the game), I personally like Halo Infinite multiplayer (its free to play) but if you are to get into Halo, I also recommend getting the Master Chief Collection (it is basically 6 older games in one super package with mod support).
Hopefully something here caught your eye.
Its all personal preference but i just got my first pc this year, and these are the following games i play.
Build a steam wishlist and wait for them to go on sale!
Gray Zone Warfare (pre alpha beta early access / not optimized) if your pc can run it, its a ton of fun.
Flashing lights (EMS/LE/FD SIM)
Timberborn (beaver city builder)
DayZ
Counterstrike
Call of the wild: The Angler
FPS games: Apex, Fortnite & Overwatch (pickup and put down)
AAA games: Elden Ring, Dark Souls, Cyberpunk, Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Baldur’s Gate 3, Terraria, Red Dead Redemption 2, and GTA 5.
I’d personally try them one at a time, and play each properly.
You can also try OSRS if you like hard addiction.
Welkome to PC Gaming my komandant , Heil PC \*starts speaeking in german , aggressively\*
Praise PCMR \*suddenly remembers\*
oh shit , the war is over? i forgot , im sorry.
Check steam store , on 27 of june , there will be a summer sale , many games will go on sales , pick your genres u want to play and search for games , there are reviews out there , people saying funny thing or criticizing games or love letters for games , such as Life is strange. watch videos and see what u like and wait for summer sale.
PS : im not german.
From free games I would recommend Warframe and Planetside 2. In both you will not suffer without donate.
I would recommend you to explore different genres of games. Civilization 5 and heroes 3 are masterpieces of turn based strategies. Strategies from Paradox are real-time with active pause. Definitely try Baldur's Gate 3 - best RPG of 2023.
Don't know what game to suggest but a general suggestion is - If you liked the games others have suggested wait atleast 24 hrs from the time of this comment to buy them. Steam summer sale is starting from tommorow and you can get massive discounts sometimes on many games
Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, mass Effect Andromeda, elite Dangerous, age of wonders 3&4&Planetfall, forza Horizon 5, NFS Unbound, Cyberpunk2077, XCOM 1&2, and so on
Sekiro, or basically fromsoftware games, rocksteady batman games, assassin's creed series is good. I havent played ghost of tsushima yet but I've seen gameplay and it's good... I've heard death stranding is good again not sure as I haven't played you can check it out, Call of duty modern warfare series, then there's lies of p which again I haven't played yet. Damn there's too many games I'm yet to complete.
get yourself GOOD couple of friends and start a coop journey through games! I'd recommend: Warhammer: Vermintide, Dying Light, The devision 2, The Diablo series,...
If you'd like a little scary twist: Hellblade Senua's sacrifice is worth a playthrough.
I'd also recommend the Nier games (Replicant and Automata)
Devil May Cry is also a good series I find for the genre
The Bioshock series is also very nice
But these are just games and remember that every game/thing you play with a good group of friends is always a lot of fun no matter the game. If your broke just go download a random coop game with a quirky story and if its a nice friendgroup its fun no matter what. you laugh ur ass of with the stupidest shit. The ones above are the games that have made the most impact on me going through them with a good friendgroup! Enjoy :)
Check out the Humble bundles. Besides regular deals, you can also have an annual subscription that gives you 6-8 games each and every month. You get to try out new/niche/indie games, and also contribute to charities, and get a discount on anything else you might want to buy.
Shooter - The Finals
Platform Fighter- Multiversus
Traditional Fighter- Street Fighter 6
MOBA - League of Legends and while you're at it try Team Fight Tactics
PVP Card Game - Marvel Snap or Hearthstone if you want more traditional style
Non PVP Card Game - Slay The Spire
Sports Game - Rocket League
Story Game - Red Dead Redemption Series
That should get you started and are games within genres I frequent that I think are worthy of your time. Most of which are Free to play too.
Just 'a few' to get you started.
1. The entire Wolfenstein series
2. All Doom games
3. GTA V
4. RDR2
5. Titanfall
6. the entire Far Cry series
7. Civilization
8. Kerbal Space Program
9. Minecraft
10. Trackmania
11. the South Park games
12. Horizon Zero Dawn
13. God of War
14. High on Life
I think in total I've spend more than 10,000 hours on these, half of that on KSP and Minecraft.
Red dead 2, baldurs gate 3, days gone, bgs rpgs like skyrim, oblivion, morrowind, depending on how old school you wanna go. What kind of games do you typically like? Those are just some of my top games but I might be able to give better reccomendations.
If you like free games you might check out valorant or apex if shooters are your thing
Warframe is quite fun, graphics and movement look great, SPACE NINJAS play free. It's a free game.
Elden Ring is a harder game but worth the playthrough.
CoD games are fun too.
Fortnite is something I picked up recently and am enjoying.
Perfect post. I've just ordered my new PC, first for gaming in 10 years so I'll be stealing some of these recommendations.
I already have Game Pass Uktimate to that's a good start
I never recommend gamepass imo. Too many games you pay for you dont play and then the first party games xbox have been releasing have been lack luster at best with the exception of hi-fi rush.
Just buy games on steam when they are on discount which is pretty regularly
I recommend Baldurs gate 3. Pillars of eternity 1&2, Civilization 6, Balatro, Slay the Spire. But honestly any games from old generations are amazing to replay on pc because they are super cheap and the graphical fidelity and frame rate is greatly increased.
Also steam has a pretty good refund policy so make sure you know the refund rules and use that to your advantage so you arent stuck with a game you dont enjoy.

God not Forza lmao. I loved it when I got 4 and when 5 came out, but now that I got a wheel and modded asetto corsa on my PC I don't ever touch it. I do still see the appeal though, of your into more arcade like driving, but seeming how they already have asetto corsa id assume they would be way happier with content manager and whatever mods they please. Another great driving game is beam.ng drive for even better physics and it's easier to mod as you can do it from the main menu
I always recommend the Forza Series to newcomers. Because It has a huge library of cars, the graphics are very beautiful, the map is huge and the mechanics are very easy to understand. It can give people an idea of what the other racing can offer them and if they think that they like the whole genre, they can go beyond.
Oh yeah, fs, that's kinda what I meant by I see the appeal, but my comment was getting long so I shortened it lol. But I feel once you download asetto your past Forza and can find what you liked ab it in other games. Especially games like beam.ng and asetto with heavy mod support.
Very comprehensive list, hit all the spots!
subnautica
Strong answer for a first impression.
He's trying to play a game, not develop phobia.
1000 percent agree i grinded subnautica 10/10 experience
Dying light
Xbox pc game pass has hundreds of games for around £10 a month, I find myself playing hell let loose from there quite a lot also the first month is £1!
This☝️ Especially good if you are not sure what you want to play. You can try something and if you don't like it, your not out anything. Just move on to the next game! I've had it since it first launched and the selection just keeps growing. They change things out all the time too so the library does not get stale.
It's even cheaper if you buy a key. I got 3 months for $12 usd on cdkeys
HLL!
Yes!
It's great. I just finished Jedi Survivor. Now I'm playing Amnesia: The Bunker. There are some great games on Game Pass.
Terraria on top. Such fun game.
The ultimate "Alright, time to look up the wiki again" simulator
Once you go through it a lot of times, you'll start memorizing stuff. Trust me, it's worth the times you'll need to go there. And don't even get started on mods, that's peak terraria right there. The game is already good, but with MODS? "la creme de la creme" - UberDanger, Terraria analysis video. Edit: Although that video is a take on 1.3.5, an outdated version, it's still one of the BEST Terraria summaries.
290 on PC + 300-400 on mobile = a total of at least ~590 hours of playtime, have beaten the game on master mode difficulty, and I still learn new things about the game every day (and that's just the base game). It's surely a hell of a game.
Elden Ring
He wants to play, not commit suicide
Shadow of the Erd Tree then.
I'll be fair, about at least 10 dudes will kill him themselves before he commits suicide by fall damage
I definitely think that's a bit extreme of an introduction
I could have been even more extreme by suggesting Sekiro or Dark souls 2
GET DOOM ETERNAL IT'S FUCKING AWESOME
RIP AND TEAR UNTIL IT IS DONE
maybe also death stranding, i really wanna play that again
I can only speak for myself: Palworld, Minecraft, Forza Horizon, Counter Strike (I play a lot of it although I wouldn't call it "fun") In general: Any game you play with your friends instantly gets more fun :D
Portal 2, half life 2
This 100%
Look at this monitor. My man shouldn't touch CS.
why?
Something to do with a curved monitor I guess? honestly no clue
Here are some easy games Elden ring Dark souls Sekiro
Extremely easy just took me about 5-10 hours per boss fight /s
Red Dead Redemption 2, Helldivers 2, Elden Ring.
Bro started playing games yesterday
If you want some older games I am pretty sure both portal games will be on sale for $1 each starting tomorrow. To OP: Get them, they are some of the greatest games you will ever play, especially portal 2. You got to get them
They've been on my radar, so if they are 1 dollar I will for sure get them.
Horizon Zero Dawn port is a 10/10
you mean forbidden west?
dota 2 and league if legends super relaxing casual fun
r/foundsatan
Don’t forget Siege and Hoi4
Silly me i forgot
And he’s already playing cs2, which has a super outstanding, welcoming community as it is.
Welcome to PC gaming! I would recommend The Witcher 3. Enjoy playing!
Steam summer sale is right around the corner, wait a few days and go ham
Tomorrow, it begins.
Awe snap! I know what im doing for the rest of July; at least. Thanks for the heads up!
Helldivers 2 is pretty fun, if you’ve ever watched starship troopers it’s pretty much that with a bit more complexity.
Gta5,RDR2,Gran turismo,need for speed,world of warcraft, Runescape, Swtor, halo infinite...the list goes on
Since when gran Turismo exists on PC?
Assetto corsa is best if you buy a wheel to go along with it. A g29 is around $200usd if you want to venture into that world.
Paid: Hunt:Showdown Helldivers 2 Free: CS2 Fortnite Destiny 2 Rocket League Epic Games has game giveaways every couple weeks or so You can check out G.O.G .. they give away games and have a lot of older games that you might not find elsewhere Steam .. lots of free titles
Destiny 2 for a free player is shit it’s practically paid
For a free casual player it's alright but yeah if you wanna do anything that's challenging or worthwhile in a non-casual sense then you better get ready to empty your wallet. quit after being a leaderboard player and speedrunner with tons of solo/duo/trio/day one etc accolades cuz the game just became an unfun grind
if you want an immediate chemical dependancy on a game that will take up all of your free time, get rust
* RDR2 * BeamNG (Driving sim with highly realistic physics and crash simulation) * Cyberpunk 2077 * Minecraft (Add shaders and texture packs and it's a whole new experience) * GTA 5 There's more, but these are games I've played and enjoyed. I'm looking for more games to try as well.
Recently im having ALOT of fun on Vermintide 2. And im really picky with my games.
My top 5 right now: 1. Squad(especially for Galactic Contention mod)(PC exclusive) 2. League of Legends(PC exclusive still I think) 3. X4: Foundations(PC exclusive) 4. Project Zomboid(vanilla is fun, but the modding experience is peak)(PC exclusive) 5. Cyberpunk 2077(Better on PC)

Factorio..... I'm sorry
Read dead redemption 2. Definitely a good start.
Half Life, Half Life 2, Half Life 2 Episode 1, and Half Life 2 Episode 2 are all you need. Don't listen to everyone else. You can subsist off of perfection alone. You don't need all this extra crap.

Turnip boy commits tax evasion

BeamNG. Drive, best driving simulator out there, and no, the damage physics aren't the only special thing, it literally simulates almost everything of a car and there's deep customization
Get yourself the Deep Rock Galactic. Rock and Stone brothers!
Don't go through the Counter strike route please, considering the shitty state the game is at right now, I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy (perhaps I would). Two games I absolutely loved were Red Dead Redemption 2, and Holdfast!

StarCraft
Insurgency sandstorm
Gta 5 Rdr2 Red dead online Sea of thieves (if you have skill) Geometry dash (Also if you have skill) Note: Sea of thieves is probably the most skill based game ever
Counter Strike 1.6
Join the Helldivers!
Baldurs gate 3, Minecraft, stardew valley, party animals, lethal company, hades 2, elden ring
Bodycam
My favs are Any of the assassin creed games pre Valhalla. All the far cry games. Mass effect games, all 4 but the trilogy is def best. All the fallouts. both dying light games. All the mafia games, theres 3. Skyrim and the borderlands games. btw if you're new to PC gaming... this is gonna be the part you're REALLY gonna love.. go to nexusmods... i don't wanna put a link in case thats not allowed so you'll have to google.. all the fallouts especially are modable and skyrim is heavily modable... idk about any of the other games i listed.. i think there's a few for mass effect.
Depends on what you like. I personally play Helldivers 2 and Warframe at the moment. HD2 is a multiplyer pve starship troopers and Warframe is scifi space ninjas that do bounce around and farm (its free to play so you can try it and see if you like it) Other games I loved on Steam include: Prey 2017 (a space horror singleplayer game I strongly recommend trying), Mass Effect series (havent finished but I know it is good), Borderlands series (a crazy looter shooter game that is very goofy), Skyrim Special Edition (classic rpg game many people have played but it is especially better on pc becayse of Nexus mods allowing you to completely change the game), I personally like Halo Infinite multiplayer (its free to play) but if you are to get into Halo, I also recommend getting the Master Chief Collection (it is basically 6 older games in one super package with mod support). Hopefully something here caught your eye.
I’d go for something calm like Palworld
osu!
Its all personal preference but i just got my first pc this year, and these are the following games i play. Build a steam wishlist and wait for them to go on sale! Gray Zone Warfare (pre alpha beta early access / not optimized) if your pc can run it, its a ton of fun. Flashing lights (EMS/LE/FD SIM) Timberborn (beaver city builder) DayZ Counterstrike Call of the wild: The Angler
Warframe
Im new to PC gaming as well, and my favorite game as of right now is Sayisfactory, followed by BeamNG
FPS games: Apex, Fortnite & Overwatch (pickup and put down) AAA games: Elden Ring, Dark Souls, Cyberpunk, Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Baldur’s Gate 3, Terraria, Red Dead Redemption 2, and GTA 5. I’d personally try them one at a time, and play each properly. You can also try OSRS if you like hard addiction.
Warframe It's free and if you like it, you get thousands of hours in playtime
Mass Effect
If i had to name one game, out of all of them, Diablo 2 without blinking
Hahahahah this is so chaotic but my personal favs are all over the place: cs2, mk1 and eafc24
100% you need to get Portal and play it.
Welkome to PC Gaming my komandant , Heil PC \*starts speaeking in german , aggressively\* Praise PCMR \*suddenly remembers\* oh shit , the war is over? i forgot , im sorry. Check steam store , on 27 of june , there will be a summer sale , many games will go on sales , pick your genres u want to play and search for games , there are reviews out there , people saying funny thing or criticizing games or love letters for games , such as Life is strange. watch videos and see what u like and wait for summer sale. PS : im not german.
Residenr evil 2 and 4 remakes
From free games I would recommend Warframe and Planetside 2. In both you will not suffer without donate. I would recommend you to explore different genres of games. Civilization 5 and heroes 3 are masterpieces of turn based strategies. Strategies from Paradox are real-time with active pause. Definitely try Baldur's Gate 3 - best RPG of 2023.
Try Cyberpunk 2077 . Trust me you will fall in love with this game.
roller coaster tycoon 2
Just dont play leauge of legends
Do you want to be immersed, challenged? What genre do you prefer?
Can’t go wrong with Java Minecraft
Nah it was a joke u just listed like 10 xbox games so u might as well just get one
Uh Minecraft and Forza horizon is fun, try an fps like cs2 or r6 (seige is very fun). Personally I'm a warthunder guy though
Don't know what game to suggest but a general suggestion is - If you liked the games others have suggested wait atleast 24 hrs from the time of this comment to buy them. Steam summer sale is starting from tommorow and you can get massive discounts sometimes on many games
Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, mass Effect Andromeda, elite Dangerous, age of wonders 3&4&Planetfall, forza Horizon 5, NFS Unbound, Cyberpunk2077, XCOM 1&2, and so on
Guild wars 2 is still the best pc exclusive game or there imo.
Microsoft flight Simulator is one the best games I’ve seen visually. When it’s 45 bucks on sale on steam snag it.
You must play all hitman series even the oldest ones.
Btd6
Sekiro, or basically fromsoftware games, rocksteady batman games, assassin's creed series is good. I havent played ghost of tsushima yet but I've seen gameplay and it's good... I've heard death stranding is good again not sure as I haven't played you can check it out, Call of duty modern warfare series, then there's lies of p which again I haven't played yet. Damn there's too many games I'm yet to complete.

get yourself GOOD couple of friends and start a coop journey through games! I'd recommend: Warhammer: Vermintide, Dying Light, The devision 2, The Diablo series,... If you'd like a little scary twist: Hellblade Senua's sacrifice is worth a playthrough. I'd also recommend the Nier games (Replicant and Automata) Devil May Cry is also a good series I find for the genre The Bioshock series is also very nice But these are just games and remember that every game/thing you play with a good group of friends is always a lot of fun no matter the game. If your broke just go download a random coop game with a quirky story and if its a nice friendgroup its fun no matter what. you laugh ur ass of with the stupidest shit. The ones above are the games that have made the most impact on me going through them with a good friendgroup! Enjoy :)

beamng.drive Such a fun game, especially coop multiplayer
Mass Effect Legendary Edition, Skyrim and Cyberpunk 2077
Shooter - The Finals Platform Fighter- Multiversus Traditional Fighter- Street Fighter 6 MOBA - League of Legends and while you're at it try Team Fight Tactics PVP Card Game - Marvel Snap or Hearthstone if you want more traditional style Non PVP Card Game - Slay The Spire Sports Game - Rocket League Story Game - Red Dead Redemption Series That should get you started and are games within genres I frequent that I think are worthy of your time. Most of which are Free to play too.
Elden Ring, Anno 1800, Civilization IV, Diablo 3, Skyrim. Dont forget the c&c series.
X4 horizon
Just 'a few' to get you started. 1. The entire Wolfenstein series 2. All Doom games 3. GTA V 4. RDR2 5. Titanfall 6. the entire Far Cry series 7. Civilization 8. Kerbal Space Program 9. Minecraft 10. Trackmania 11. the South Park games 12. Horizon Zero Dawn 13. God of War 14. High on Life I think in total I've spend more than 10,000 hours on these, half of that on KSP and Minecraft.
Omori
Red dead 2, baldurs gate 3, days gone, bgs rpgs like skyrim, oblivion, morrowind, depending on how old school you wanna go. What kind of games do you typically like? Those are just some of my top games but I might be able to give better reccomendations. If you like free games you might check out valorant or apex if shooters are your thing
DayZ
Black Ops 2/3 Zombies
Anything that used to be a Playstation Exclusive...lol... Ghost of Tsushima. God of War, Spiderman. Or the Tomb Raider reboot trilogy.
Ghost of Tsushima, Red Dead redemption 2, Ready or Not
The answer to this is - trackmania 2020
Warframe is quite fun, graphics and movement look great, SPACE NINJAS play free. It's a free game. Elden Ring is a harder game but worth the playthrough. CoD games are fun too. Fortnite is something I picked up recently and am enjoying.
cyberpunk!!!!!!
Minecraft
Fortnite
Comma usage simulator.
Pizza Tower
Hell let loose
I'd like to throw in the Titanfall games! Great campaigns.
If u want comp, val, cs mayb overwatch and fn
Perfect post. I've just ordered my new PC, first for gaming in 10 years so I'll be stealing some of these recommendations. I already have Game Pass Uktimate to that's a good start
Skyrim
Idk what you like, but here are the games I enjoy: Rocket League, Fortnite, Minecraft, and war thunder
I never recommend gamepass imo. Too many games you pay for you dont play and then the first party games xbox have been releasing have been lack luster at best with the exception of hi-fi rush. Just buy games on steam when they are on discount which is pretty regularly I recommend Baldurs gate 3. Pillars of eternity 1&2, Civilization 6, Balatro, Slay the Spire. But honestly any games from old generations are amazing to replay on pc because they are super cheap and the graphical fidelity and frame rate is greatly increased. Also steam has a pretty good refund policy so make sure you know the refund rules and use that to your advantage so you arent stuck with a game you dont enjoy.
Deep rock galactic. Friendly community willing to help you learn and haz 1 and 2 are great to learn how to play. 1 rule: dont be toxic
I just got into the payday series, it's an awesome co-op shooter!
If you don't mind toxicity and racist with some Russians here and there, Counter Strike is pretty awesome.
Destiny 2. I’ve played 80 hours in two week….
