I recently booted up Half-Life 2 to replay it. I have played the absolute shit out of this game before, so 60% of it just feels like a drag to me now. It was such an amazing game but it’s sort of spoiled for me after I’ve played it too much.
I also discovered ULTRAKILL a few months ago. I feel like I could play that game forever. It has tons of content, weapon combinations and higher difficulties with different enemy behaviour.
Do any of you have more game suggestions like Ultrakill? A really replayable singleplayer game.
!!BTW I don’t mean online multiplayer games or games similar to candy crush!!
I think factorio is one, even when you launch your rocket (I have more than 100 hours and I don’t think…) you still can restart in a new generated world and try do to it again in a better way.
dude, after you launch the rocket is where the real game begins. You either go for a megabase or you start a overhaul mod. Restarting vanilla from scratch doesn’t really make much sense.
Stellaris, Rimworld, the Sims, and a lot of stragedy games.
Hades.
Should be higher up, the best game designed to be replayed until the end of time.
For rpg games, something like mass effect or Baldurs Gate could be the one
I basically 100%ed Hades over a span of 2 weeks and never touched it again. Great game, but there is little reason to continue playing when you’ve unlocked everything.
Rally racing games; special stage rally is racing on a closed road and competitors start one at a time, competing for the fastest time at the end. These games are infinitely replayable in that you can always try for a faster time. The arguably best rally game is Richard Burns Rally, which has been kept alive by modding communities like the Rallysimfans.hu plugin, where independent developers continue to create new tracks and cars. Other fun rally games include Dirt Rally, Dirt Rally 2.0, Dakar 18, and BeamNG.drive (which has a massive modding community of its own) Special mention to the Gran Turismo series and Wreckfest, which both include rally among many other types of racing.
Honesty I’m shocked nobody has mentioned Tales of Maj’Eyal or ToME for short. Extremely deep roguelike with story and it is getting expansions ans updates all the time.
Also it is open-source, so can be downloaded for free, but I would recommend you also buy it in steam for instance to support it.
Kenshi is infinitely replayable, imo.
From the alternate starts, to the different ways you can even play the game (wanna be a lone trader, traveling from town to town buying and selling goods? Want to be the ultimate warrior who can go toe-to-toe with the Spider King? Wanna build a city/outpost where you can be totally sufficient and build up your own personal army to take over the world?), to the sheer size of the world. Plus all the awesome mods that can add so much to the game that already has a lot. You start off with your skills at 0 or in the low tens, and you will get your ass handed to you on an iron platter until you actually train up a bit; but even a high or max level character can still get fucked up by the wrong group of enemies.
I have mods that add a couple new factions (the fungoids are OP), flesh other factions out a bit more with more weapons and gear, and other building mods and some QoL mods so I can truly tailor my experience how I like it.
It plays kinda like an RTS with a mix of RPG elements.
I really enjoy kenshi but if your like me and don’t like losing at all then it can take a bit to get into. Still highly recommend
Just save a lot, but yes. It does take a little getting used to it.
Imo General Sam’s Kenshi series is a fantastic introduction to the game, because it was mine lol
Heroes of Might and Magic - the originals. Mostly 3, but any from 1 to 5 can do it.
6 and upwards, it’s just pure Ubisoft enshitification. Can’t even play them properly anymore due to the online component having shutdown its service.
I would personally pick HoMM5 and avoid 4 altogether.
The binding of isaac: rebirth and dlcs
Borderlands 2 has a lot of replay potential without getting boring. It never plays the same way twice. The weapon drops are very different each time through. Don’t forget the DLC. The rest of the games in the series are fun too, but BL2 seems to be where it peaked for me.
Kerbal Space Program, for sure. Skyrim is another.
Dyson Sphere Program is dangerously replayable to me. Hundreds and hundreds of hours sunk into it
Shattered pixel dungeon
Risk of rain and risk of rain 2
Dead Cells! Made by a worker cooperative 🥳
Dead cells studio is a co-op? Wasnt aware, thats cool
My son and I had a blast with this one. We took turns doing runs through all biomes and found tons of blueprints and secrets. So fun!
Anything with procedurally generated levels, like roguelikes/roguelites. I can personally vouch for the longevity of Slay the Spire, for one specific example.
