If you could only suggest someone play one video game, what would it be?

Not RuneScape, I don’t need to be ruining any lives

Slay the Spire hands down. Obviously if you’re into deck builders you’ll know it and also know it’s the GOAT but I feel like that’s a more niche genre that I guess a more ‘casual gamer’ wouldn’t go out of their way to dabble with. Might be completely wrong considering the success Balatro has just had, which is also a good entry point into that style of game, but SnS offers so much more complexity and variety so if it tickles your pickle then suddenly you have a game you can put thousands of hours into.

Couldn't agree more with this. I'm on well over 1,000 hours on Slay the Spire (across PC and Switch) and I am still finding new ways to beat the game that I've never done before. It's so easy to pick up and get the hang of, but hard to master, especially at the higher ascensions. Monster Train is also badass, but doesn't feel quite as 'polished' as StS.

I see BG3 has also been mentioned for obvious reasons. Probably the most complete game I've ever played, especially from an RPG perspective.

Both are awesome shouts.

Honestly, everytime I feel like I’ve exhausted every build that’s viable (especially anything ascension 15+) I’ll whip out some absolutely insane run that’s focused on some shit card like Thunderstrike or something. Have you tried the downfall mod? The character feels so much like it could’ve been designed by the devs

Agreed with monster train, it’s fun enough and I can play it for a few hours every now and then but it just lacks whatever ‘that’ which StS has which makes it impossible to put down. Can’t wait for the sequel
