I’m thinking about buying Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance but I haven’t played any Metal Gear games before. The only things I know about the game is that Hideo Kojima directed the main series and this game is some kind of spinoff. I also know the game contains an American senator and something about nanomachines or something.

I played and enjoyed the following games:

- Hollow Knight;

- Fromsoftware games(Elden Ring, Bloodborne, Sekiro and Dark Souls);

- Yakuza games(0,1,2 and Like a Dragon);

- Breath of the Wild;

- Witcher 3(didn’t really like Cyperpunk 2077)

I know the game is pretty old but I don't really mind outdated graphics and controls if a game is enjoyable. Will I enjoy Revengeance based on my taste and if I haven’t played a Metal Gear game before?

I need a new single player game to get lost in, any suggestions?

For reference these are games I have played and loved:

Fromsoftware games (Dark Souls 1-3, Elden Ring)
Persona series (3-5)
Elder Scrolls (4-5)
Red Dead Redemption 2
Literally every Pokémon game probably
BOTW

I have played a lot more but I am not gonna list them all. These are the main ones that I got really into. I'll try to update the list if someone suggests a game I have played.

I am looking for something new to waste my time on when I am not busy. Obviously please don't suggest any of the games I already said. I would give things that I am looking for in a game, but I am pretty much open to whatever right now. Preferably some kind of RPG, I'm just in that kind of mood. What are your favorites that you got absorbed into?

Also, it doesn't have to be strictly single player. As long as it can be played by yourself its fine. Thanks.

Should I buy Age of Wonders: Planetfall if I've never played AoW?

After seeing Age of Wonders 4 announcement I was really interested! I've never played AoW before but I have some experience with paradox and 4x games, although not a ton like a lot of people. I'm fairly new to the genre and I'm still learning.

I've played Stellaris, CK3, Civ 6,

While I wait for AoW4 release in May, would Planetfall be a nice jumping in point into the series?

Thanks all for the advice!

The Batman Arkham original trilogy is around 7 bucks on Fanatical. Worth it?

I've always wanted to get into the games and could never find good deals, but this one seems like a really good value. Is the original game (and its two sequels) worth it at this price?

I've always liked Action Games and I'm sure this would be right up my alley, just wanted to know if it's a good value or not.

WSIB: a game heavy on roleplay

One of my favourite aspects of gaming is roleplay. A recent game that did this perfectly was Crusader Kings 3, the amount of freedom and customization is phenomenal and exactly what I need. I like to create my own stories in my head and gameplay isn’t a priority when I am able to do so. Other games that I played that fit the description are:

Rimworld, Xcom, Midnight suns (to an extent), Civ games…

One aspect I also would really appreciate is having a custom character. Although not required for me to enjoy it really opens up my headcanon.

I am on PC, Switch and Ps5
