What should I play?

I have, what we in the industry refer to as, "too many ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ games". Having a bit of choice paralysis at the moment. Help me Steam. You're my only hope.

Too many games is somewhere in the thousands.

You can do what I do: do some non-gameing-related stuff and Sony wait until the desire to play a specific game (or a genre) bubbles up.

Another method is to start a game, play it for a fifth of an hour and see if it keeps you. If no, start another game.

One of those methods always works when I don't know what to play (which happens easily with well over a kilogame).

Here's a good 1:

Be an adult & decide for yourself instead of asking strangers to make your decisions for you.

I miss the era of Windows 98 and XP when there were tons of non gaming related stuff while you waited for the game you wanted to come out as referring to the OP's impatience of what to play. You don't always have to play.

and these weren't boring office spreadsheet stuff either.

You could be a home musician without spending tons of $$$ for an electronic studio and still get as decent of an output and other hobby stuff.

The first OS to kill this was Windows Vista by removing 'What U Hear' and the ability to do external midi stuff but thru a registry hack you could re enable it with a few tweaks.

Windows 7 on up hard removed it pissing a lot of people off at the time but the music industry threatened to sue Creative and other sound companies for 'pirating' content so forced motherboard manufacturing companies to eventually disable things on the board itself via machine language process. Creative was the last hold out and talked with the director of Linux but it wounded up in a heated argument with Creative giving the 'finger' to him and walked out of the meeting.

Creative then released Sound Blaster Z and it was a piece of junk according to a lot of reviews unlike it's either stuff and they got into external cards which were much more cheap and limited not like the SB live and X-FI days with reach features and a 1,000$'s worth of sound for less then 200$. And tons of built in free software for doing/making things.

I don't really know what I expected from the Steam boards I got a joke, a smart ass, a kids these days, and some actual advice For the record I'm 35 with a family, full time job and I'm learning C# at the moment to make my own games. I do agree HB I used to mess around with Windows Movie Maker ALL the time when I was waiting for my friends to get on the original XBL to play Halo 2...you hit me in the nostalgia there. First PC I built had 98 on it. I think I'm going to go re-download SWG-EMU thanks for the help everyone!

Also if any of y'all are interested in learning code check out SoloLearn. It's mobile and desktop and it's only like $50 a year which is less than a single AAA live-bs :P

Sounds more like you just don't have the right games, maybe you should buy some more.

Empyrion is an interesting indie survival game. I played it a bit while it was in early access. It's easier to get further when you're on a multiplayer server. If people are still playing it, it might be worth checking out if you're into that sort of thing.

I'm a fan of the Fallout series. The first is one of my favorite games. It's a true classic, though I guess it wouldn't go over too well with today's kids. You were probably too young to play it when it released, so you could check it out now.

Shadowrun Returns is a good tactics game. It's set in the Shadowrun universe, which is a bonkers RPG setting from the 80s and 90s. I guess Shadowrun is before your time, but I thought this captured the setting really well.

One of my friends, a lesbian, was into Street Racing Syndicate. She thought the chicks were hot. I dunno if that's a huge endorsement, but there you go. I didn't bother to play it myself.

Morrowind is one of my favorite RPGs. You should give it a try. It would be considered pretty hardcore these days, though.

You've barely touched Skyrim, and that's a very fun RPG. It's a bit dumbed down from Oblivion, which is dumbed down from Morrowind. But it's the most modded game ever.

The X series of games are good. Very German, though, if you know what I mean. Complex and detailed oriented. If you like that sort of thing, give them a try.
