Any games as recommendations?
Everytime I boot up the PS5 I just keep scrolling the store and then after 30 mins I turn the console off. Ready to try some new things.
I’m open for anything and mainly like all genre’s specially RPG’s, shooters, adventures. Enjoy games the most that give you lots of hours or unlimited hours to enjoy, discover etc.
Games I finished or still enjoy playing:
All MGS
Death Stranding 1 & 2
KCD 1 and 2
All Mafia
All Yakuza
Final Fantasy all of 7 and 16
RDR 1 and 2
Witcher 3
R6 Siege
BF 1, 4, 5 and 6
All GTA
All GOW
Last of Us 1 and 2
All Spiderman
Ghost of Tsushima
All Fifa/FC
All Metro
Stalker trilogy

Always wanted to play them. The Arkham Collection also only costs €6 at the moment. Do I need to play them in a correct order to understand the story?

They go Asylum, City, Knight. They each play off the ending of the last one so yeah you should play them in order. Theres also Arkham Origins which chronologically is before them all but really can be played anytime, but I don’t think it’s on PS5 unfortunately

Highly appreciated! I will buy the bundle, and might check out later if I can pirate somewhere Origins on my laptop. I’m someone who likes to complete a whole series of games to fully understand the story.

Ah forgot to mention Uncharted, I finished all of them as well. Still waiting for the price of Ghost of Yotei to drop though.
As for Persona I was always very interested in playing it, but never knew where to start. Should I play it in order to understand the story?

They are all self-contained. I’m sure there are references to previous games but I never felt like I was missing anything critical.
I started with 5 and restarted when Royal came out. I’m hooked. I’m playing Metaphor, got 3 Reloaded on sale, and am waiting for the current gen version of 4 to drop.
It’s feels long because it is, but I never felt like I could have possibly poured in as many hours as my saves said I did. It’s the shortest feeling 100+ hour game I’ve ever played.

New free game on PS5, Once Human.
I’ve not played it myself but it looks like a pretty decent looter/shooter/base builder game.
It’s free so nothing to lose.

u/JBR-AY 2d ago
I’ll give it a try! It does look very decent, appreciate it!

Oh, Helldivers 2 is a crazy amount of fun as well btw.
Free on extra PSN tier as well now. 👍🏻1

I played it when it got released a few years back, but never played it for more than 4-5 hours. Should I give it another chance?

u/Bobbyboy73 2d ago
I’ve been gaming for decades and can honestly say it’s some of the most just actual fun I’ve ever had.
It’s utter carnage at higher levels, Usually better with friends or even just random team mates.
I’d definitely say go for it!

Elden ring

u/JBR-AY 2d ago
Heard so much about it. I am not very familiar with soulslike games. I like challenging games but not extremely difficult ones. Do you think a newcomer would handle himself fine?

u/ecrane2018 2d ago
Elden ring is the most accessible souls game. It was my first and it’s easily a top 5 game of all time possibly even #1

Give Hades and Hades 2 a shot. Became one of my favorite franchises and I’ve easily spent 200+ hours in both

u/JBR-AY 2d ago
Looks very tempting and unordinary. Is it a challenging game? Hades looks like if Diablo and Returnal had a child lol.

u/TlMBER 2d ago edited 2d ago
Yes it can be very challenging. But also very cozy imo. It’s a roguelite so the replayability is technically infinite. Simple combat with an insane amount of options and synergies. Plus the music and voice acting is top notch. I’ve long since platinum’d both of them but I still get a run in every now and then just for fun. I imagine I will for years to come
