Previously Enjoyed Games: I love enshrouded and valheim. Open world, building, crafting, combat. Love them. Also loved planet crafter and dysmantle.
Preferred Genres: I am a 53yo engineering manager and I spend all day reading stuff on a screen. At the end the day, I don't want a game that makes me read a lot. So, I couldn't even get started on Fallout 4, the Witcher, Ghosts of Tsunimo, and a bunch of others. No man's sky was alright, but too much to remember and I ended up dropping it.
Budget: No budget, if it's a good game I'll pay the money
Other Notes: Also, I play exclusively on the deck without keyboard and mouse. Keyboard and mouse are for work.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a tired old dev who just wants a fun game without it feeling like work?
