My go to would be Skyrim, but i actually stopped playing about a year ago. My current one would be cyberpunk but i'm waiting for the dlc and playing diablo 4 atm.

Surviving Mars. Every time I get back to it, I enjoy it.

Subnautica and Planet Crafter.

The best "just one more thing!" games I've ever found. Huge chunks of time just disappear for me and the people that I've had play it. Very rewarding.

I am playing Skyrim. For the second time, now in Special Edition.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater games 1 through 4.

A bit more than once a decade I play them on emulator and try to 100% them. Great fun. I also try to make sure to visit the locations in the real world if I'm on holiday nearby where they based a level.

It's kind of sad that the Venice Beach area hasn't existed since the 90s.

Edit: I did just realise this thread is about PC games, but I do play them on PC albeit through a PlayStation emulator. I do believe the games are available on PC.

BPM: Bullets Per Minite

Doom meets dungeon crawler meets Crypt of the Necrodancer.

For basically daily consumption, definitely Paradoy Grand Strategy games for me, EU4, Vic3, CK3, HoI4, one of those almost always manages to work out.

As a game that I can endlessly revisit with short pauses in between, Disco Elysium, never fails to resonate with me.

My friends make fun of me for it but...

Football Manager.

I know it's a spreadsheet simiulator but I can't stop.

Civilization for me... I don't mind the newer versions but I'm old enough that I've played it since Civ I and I do sort of feel like it's lost something as the graphics have improved and animations were introduced. Still, irrespective of the version, every game is a little different and eats hours like nothing else.

Neverwinter Nights, I enjoy playing some of the campaigns and modules every so often, trying out different builds.

Warcraft 3, just for the original campaigns and also the stupid amount of custom campaigns made by the community.

Cassette Beasts, it's like Pokémon far more different than other pokeclones, and far higher quality imo. The beast designs are great, and there's a cool fuse mechanic you can use to fuse any two Beasts, with unique art (over 16,000 possible fusions). Also the shiny-equivalent is better done and actually useful.

Good ol' Skyrim. The possibilities to break the game are nigh endless.

Prey. I enjoyed it more than Dishonored, it holds a real special place in my heart.

The Binding of Isaac. One of the GOATs for me.

Outer Wilds. You can really only play it once though but it’s amazing!

I love the Fallout universe and crafting in games, so with the amazing mod community I've wasted (?) nearly 6,000 hours on Fallout 4.

I know it's arguably the weakest of Fallout 1-4 and New Vegas, but it became a refuge for me to escape from the real world into.

Civilization 6, this game is a time sink

Vampire Survivors I just love that game, after that Tetris.

I recently just played through the whole Bioshock series for the first time. Top tier games for sure, and still hold up very well.

Outer Wilds, played it once loved it so much I still get tons of enjoyment by watching others do full play throughs

Since nobody has mentioned it, I'll throw in "X4: Foundations". The X series is janky in places but oh so satisfying if you can get past the jank. Build a military empire to take over the galaxy, or maybe a trading empire. Or maybe you want to become an industrialist and build huge stations to print money. You can be a pirate or a salvager or any combination of the above. And there are tons of interesting mods if you get sick of the vanilla game.

Love this game!

Fallout 4 ☢️

Dying Light, absolutely fantastic pakour zombie smasher with one of the best cities in gaming. Bought it originally (on a disc) many years ago and played it so much the disc died and I was inconsolable until Epic gave away the ultimate edition and I was finally able to play The Following DLC.

Now I go and look at Dying Light 2 on Steam and wish my stupid country wasn't so damn expensive, even on sale at 50% off it still costs almost as much as a brand new AAA game in the states. Regional pricing my ass, we always get stung so hard for tech down here.

DemonDarkBloodEldenSoulsBorneRing.

Edit: Of those that are on PC, anyway. I got tired of waiting for even an announcement that a BB or Demon Souls port was on its way and got a PS5 just for those two things back in January.

Fallout New Vegas

Ultima and Wing Commander, I know I'm showing my age but I guess it's the nostalgia. I still go back and play through them.

Transport Fever 2. It's like Transport Tycoon (/Deluxe) from the 90s/OpenTTD but way more beautiful and 3D.

doom

Solitaire

Minecraft Rimworld Cities Skylines Satisfactory

Stellaris and Factorio

Titanfall 2's campaign. I don't replay a lot of games, but I've played through that one a good few times.

Minecraft
