theHunter : Call of The Wild is my other long term, go-to relaxation game.  Over 1000hrs in that one over the last few years.

Red Dead 2, Cyberpunk and Death Stranding are on rotation.  All fantastic games in their own right, though RDR2 is the stand out game of the last 10 years for me.

Subnautica, Half-Life Alyx and Boneworks are my VR games of choice.

Only problem is a certain flight simulator seems to be taking all of my time recently.  Doubt I'll have to buy another game for the next three years or so.   Plenty to keep me going.

Yes! Someone mentioned it. Think I have about 500hr in COTW. Wonderfully relaxing game (and freaking GORGEOUS at times) I usually play with the 4 and 6y/o.

That would be Skyrim for me, with I can't even remember how many mods. (Proud member of Vortex)

Only have flying games on my pc.

When in doubt; IL2 Great Battles multiplayer coop.

 

Apart from thehunter; I kind of like simulation games in general. Train sims have kindled an interest in trains I never thought I had. Run8 and TSW are nice.

Been dreaming for ages for a new Silent Hunter (Submarine simulator).

I have an unhealthy amount of hours in the Civilization-franchise but I haven't played in years.

Stellaris is really cool and the 6y/o loves playing that with me.

I am also eagerly awaiting the release of Dwarf Fortress on Steam.

It's a thing of beauty 🙂   The best natural environments in a video game imo.   I turn off all the "arcady" glowing tracks and all that nonsense and can just hike around the maps spotting and stalking for hours. Absolutely wonderful game.

Been wanting to get into Skyrim again. I think I bought some remaster on Steam a number of years ago but haven't got to it. Recommended mods?

Will be doing some driving in American & Euro Truck Sim.  Amazingly fun for anyone that hasn't tried it.  Having a steering wheel and pedals make it really enjoyable and relaxing. They recently upgraded their graphics and sound engine too...looks really nice!

I remember the first time I played it. Hirschfelden. I was absolutely blown away by how beautiful it looked. Among the best atmospheres in any game ever imho.

Civilization VI. Cities Skylines.

Who said or needs Xbox?
Guess you caught me red handed.  Currently I have zero games installed.

I was actually truly asking as I am right now Console knowledge deficient.  I also wonder if you have a Community Folder on Xbox to download custom content?  Can anybody say?  I would love to be able to just transfer by stick all my present P.C. Community Folder add-ons...that would be cherry!

Finished Outriders. Probably will play Modern Warfare or Black Ops Cold War. or just have my coach throw more training on in Zwift  in preparation for 6 Gap.

If we are speaking of other games than the present one I have played a lot, these recent months, The Long Dark, a survival game set in Yukon where your worst enemy is the cold and incidentally wolves,  bears and an occasional irritated moose ( no zombie, sorry). An exemplary game showing that gameplay overrules anytime dated graphics. Regularly updated. A story + a sandbox. Great game.

 

I've only played flight sims for years, but I picked up American Truck Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator2 and TSW on the last Steam sale. Wasn't sure I would enjoy any of them, but ATS has really hooked me. Great gameplay pulling heavy loads all over the Western USA with DLC which was also on sale. Much more enjoyable than I was expecting. I am using it with my joystick as I didn't want to clutter my desk with a steering wheel. It took quite a while to figure out the settings and sensitivities but now it is working just fine. TSW was fun for a bit too, but I quickly got bored with it.
