I have all my hardware set up, including a new chair. MineCraft and baulders gate 3, terraria, and some freebies are my only games so far. I have a massive console and physical game collection that I love, so I'm really just looking for things that are definitively better on pc, only on pc, or software that I may not know about yet. Free software and game recommendations are always my favorite.

Really just posting here because I thought you would be the best people to find random recommendations from. Usually I would check reddit posts and all that, but I'm here now.

Thanks in advance!

I could potentially make some recommendations, but it would be much easier if I knew what kind of games you like to play.

I left that part out intentionally. I like a bit of everything. I'm also looking for any cool software or anything else really!

Cool software:

  • blender

  • unreal engine 5 - even if only just to look at the pretty tech demos

  • krita or gimp - like photoshop but foss

  • Everything search - way faster for finding stuff than windows search

  • Greenshot - a good screenshot snipping tool

  • Wiztree - for when you run out of hdd space
