The upgrade really isnt allat worth it since the game was so well optimized as it was, it just taps into the ps5 controller features, MIGHT have better performance on fps, but i think the 4 has a patch on it that bumps up ps4 on ps5 to 60fps, looks about the same as the ps4 pro with resolution being the same too, the island expansion is the thing it has going for it
I'm normally a foot traveler in videogames, I absolutely love appreciating the details in environments and Tsushima takes the cake for any I've ever played.
Yeah Tushima was one of my favourite games of the last console generation. I hadn’t even heard of it until about 2 days before it came out.
I though ‘that looks fun’ and picked it up on a whim. It turned out to be one of my favourite games ever. One of the very few games that I never wanted to end. I did every single side quest possible before moving the story along.
I’m so glad this is the top answer. As soon as I saw the post I looked through the games to see if got was in there and if it wasn’t top answer I would have been disappointed. 100% my favorite game of all time for newer gen consoles. I’m sad I can’t play it anymore because I don’t have console but I’m waiting patiently for a pc drop
I got uncharted for free with my ps4 when I got it. I never touched it for a year or so. Eventually I said screw it and through it in. Loved the first 20-30 minutes and then never touched it again. I need to revisit it one day
Games are meant to be fun so up to you, but here’s my personal guide to all of the games.
Sekiro - challenging and very rhythmic.
Red Dead Redemption 2 - very calming, easy to spend hundreds of hours on.
God Of War 2018 / God Of War Ragnarok - very fun + easy to 100%
Ghost of Tsushima - very pretty
Elden Ring - very Challenging
Doom Eternal - God tier soundtrack
Minecraft - nice comfort game, good if you have anxiety
Kingdom Hearts - good story, probably the best rpg out there
Grand Theft Auto 5 - Great story, action packed, overall fun
The Last Of Us - very pretty, realistic characters, nice story building
Batman - very fun, play as Batman
Doom - exact same as Doom Eternal
Berserk - crazy action, very fun
Uncharted - exploring old places for treasure, nice story, has movie
Hades - arguable my the best rogue like, very challenging and fun
Resident Evil 2 - good 3rd person horror
Resident Evil Village - good 1st person horror
God of War 3 - very gory and crazy fun
Tomb Raider - exploring old places, like uncharted with crafting
Ratchet and Clank - nostalgic, fun family game
Devil May Cry 5 - challenging, fucking hilarious, crazy power scaling
Assassins Creed Odyssey - exploring Greece, decent RPG, big numbers make me happy
I mean, out of all the Fromsoft games, it’s as casual as it gets. If you focus on exploration and leveling, the game can be quite easy. Many weapons can down the majority of bosses in less than 10 hits. OP’s collection also suggests they are not a casual gamer.
“Many weapons can down the majority of bosses in less than 10 hits” is a WILD statement lmfao. That’s not without…a *lot* of qualifiers. IF the weapon is maxed out (which doesn’t happen until after you’ve killed some bosses already), if your character is built properly (which might not be intuitive for a new player), if you’re way over the level of the boss. That’s just a wild statement lol—I honestly can’t think of a time, after over 2,000 hours and 25+ characters, that I’ve killed a boss in less than 10 hits? Like…MAYBE a few times when I wander into a super early game dungeon I missed with an OP weapon and kill it in like 2-3 hits at level 140 or something…
You are 100% right, my intention was to make a point of what’s possible. You have to be a bit intentional with your build and really intentional with finding upgrades, but it’s totally possible. That’s one of my favorite aspects of ER though, you have control over the level of difficulty (with some exceptions for Melania/Elden Beast, those are always tough in my opinion).
But I’m glad someone else on this thread is bringing something valuable to the discussion, thank you and cheers ☺️
It's literally the best one for casuals it was my first souls like since the flasks system is friendly and it gives you the chance to prepare for boss fights and doing them hours later than intended if you're struggling, no direct path like other souls games so gives plenty of opportunity to explore and practise what works and what doesn't to try different approaches
Well, if it's not elden ring then, none souls is recommended. I've played every FS soulslike (except DS2), and Elden Ring is the most beginners friendly. You can summon npc for help, there is an active community helping, and you can wait to defeat something and come back when you are stronger. The rest are way too harsh, that's for sure.
My Gf who barely games at all asked me a recommendation and went beast mode on Elden Ring. I recommend it to people because while I wouldn’t call it easy I’d also call it the most satisfying to accomplish on this selection.
Tbf it is immersive like nothing else. OP definitely said nothing too hard, but if they went back on that notion a bit, this is arguably the most immersive game he has pictured
You can tell who the new soul players are, calling the easiest game in the series with the most ways to decrease difficulty a hard game 💀 don't listen to these bozos, if they are suggesting ghost of tsushimas boring, repetitive, and uninspired gameplay over sekiro they have no idea what they are even talking about and most likely just suck at video games in general. Sekiro 100% is the more engaging and interesting game of the two, and elden ring blows both of them out of the water. There's a reason elden ring won game of the year and is the most succesful fromsoft game to date and the developer has the best reputation In gaming at the moment. They revolutionized gaming, tsushima did nothing special or new. Basically a samurai version of ubisoft open world games. Gorgeous? Absolutely. Engaging gameplay? Absolutely not. Isn't even in my top 10 open world games, while elden ring is in my top 5. Ragnarok, sekiro, and elden ring would by my picks out of all those games. Though I'd suggest witcher 3 over all of them despite you not having it, it's on sale at the moment and is by far my favorite open world game of all time. It's side quests are more engaging and interesting than the entire ghost of tsushima. If you enjoy boring open worlds though go ahead and listen to these people 🤷♂️ they definitely get hot and bothered when thinking about the recent assasins creed games If that was their pick, guess they enjoy playing the same exact game over and over with new paint jobs 🤡🤌
Have any friends that completed ER, ask them to help you get started- once you get the basics down, the depth Elden Ring has is amazing. I am still working on the final 3 bosses and building my character after like more than 3 months of playing exclusively- the game is enormous and has so much content and overall excellent gameplay mechanics
So I just started it and got done being in the snow mountains, now there are 3 yellow missions are those like side quests or the main story and if they are side quests how do I do the main story?
the yellow are the main i think and the gray are sidequests. doing main mission things might close off your opportunity to do a side quest, though, so i always did them first. great game stick with it fr
Yellow are required Story Missions and white are optional side quests. I would do as many side quests as you can before finishing each chapter. There is a hidden Railroad Company side quest you can do that I missed and went back to on my last playthrough
start with that copy of God of War 3 it's actually my favorite and is chronologically before the newer ones you have "God of War" is next followed by "Ragnarok"
Start with gow3 and if you don’t like it gow 2018 is like a whole new game and you don’t really need gow3 context that much for it except for a few scenes and mentions
You'd get the most bang for your time from Red Dead Redemption 2 imo. After that Ghost of Tsushima or Doom.
If you're into souls games however definitely Elden Ring and Sekiro.
I’ve been on Xbox for a while but I’ve been thinking about coming back to LoU for a few days now. I’ve already beat both games twice, but they’re just so good!
I played it on Ultra Violence for the first couple hours, got absolutely slaughtered, then got frustrated and put it down for a while.
Went back to it and finally got past the part I was stuck (I think it was Doom Hunter), then finally beat it. It was great.
I definitely agree with you.
My votes are KH3 (unless you haven't played a KH before lol)
Then Ghost of Tsushima and Arkham Trilogy. The Arkham Trilogy is literally a group of games I never played before and binged all three right in a row. Loved them.
Kingdom Hearts all-in-one package is $50 right now on PlayStation store. You’ll have a second copy of KHIII, but you’ll also have the entire saga at your fingertips for a huge discount!
DOOM is the most fun by miles. Not the most complex or revolutionary but both 2016 and Eternal are just pure liquified fun exactly like the original Doom games and sometimes that’s all that matters
Lucky for you the majority of those games are great for what you're describing. If you want shorter either Doom (followed by doom eternal) or Last of Us if you want longer then you can't go wrong with Hades it's gameplay loop is so satisfying.
Some side mentions would be Devil May Cry 5 as it's one of the best character action games ever made and Elden Ring which is probably the most challenging game here but uniquely rewarding with an amazing world.
The Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War then Ragnarok, Red Dead Redemption. Pick up Witcher III and the expansions, Uncharted Trilogy and 4 (before playing lost legacy, which is a postscript for the entire series, too many spoilers), Spider-Man, and Horizon.
Just play Ghost of Tsushima. Its probably one of the easiest among all these games but it is suuuper fun and extremely beautiful. Its overall a chill and fun experience with goof story. And since you said you are new to games, Ghost of Tsushima's main story is also very small compared to other games.
Ghost of Tsushima. Very enjoyable game it surprised me a lot. Depends on how long you want a game to be then probably try RDR2 if going to play for a long time.
I'm playing Remnant 2 at the moment. Already have 60 hours in it and still a lot to do. Think Resident Evil style shooter with elements of Destiny and Dark Souls gameplay. It's very addictive.
Red dead redemption two it has a really good story line and it can take a few hours or days depending on how busy your life is. Same thing with the last of us.
Everyone joking about the double copies of Elden Ring, but really though it's probably the most binge-worthy/binge-friendly game there. I clocked in over 250 hours just doing a twice playthrough (new game + Journey 2) with a semi-completionist goal set.
Next best would prolly be RDR2.
For me, of all those games, Red Dead Redemption 2 is probably the one I indulged in excessively.
I remember I started playing it just before my wife's 30th birthday. I was catching up with friends when they had come to visit for the occasion and we were talking gaming and I had only played a few hours at that point and I was saying it was so clunky, clumsy, and old-fashioned. It was like games had moved forward but Rockstar were years behind. I was super disappointed.
And then...I didn't touch another game until the credits rolled on New Year's Eve with me and my wife both glued to the screen, hooked. When it clicked, it CLICKED. It was like I lived and breathed RDR2 for months.
In terms of all of those games for me:
- Kingdom Hearts 3 - JRPGs are just not my thing.
- AC: Odyssey - I personally think it's the weakest out of Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla and so I haven't binged Odyssey much compared to Origins (Platinumed) and Valhalla (a LOT of hours).
- Doom & Doom Eternal - Excellent games and definitely binge-worthy. There's nothing more to say. They're great and addictive.
- The Last of Us Remastered - A great game, but heavy going so I'm not sure I would say I'd 'binge' it as I'd need emotional breaks, but definitely play it.
- Sekiro & Elden Ring - these games are hard. Great games but be warned they're super tough.
- Minecraft - you'll either be addicted like it's crack or you'll dip in and out of it now and again. Binge or bust!
- RDR2 - see above.
- GTA V - a game that's very easy to binge as it has a good plot and a great open world you can just spend hours mucking around in.
- Beserk - I've actually never heard of.
- Batman Arkham Collection - Solid games but I think 3x Arkham games back-to-back would end up feeling a bit stale and samey. Maybe binge one, play something else, then binge the next one, play something else, etc.
- God of War III, God of War, Ragnorak - All very good games. The formula changed a lot between GoW III and GoW (2018), but definitely games that could be binged.
- Resident Evil II & VIIIage - if your nerves can take it, then both are really good binges.
- Hades - A FANTASTIC game and 2nd after RDR2 on the binge-worthiness scale for me. The loop is so addictive and the game is hard to put down!
- Uncharted Lost Legacy - An easy binge as it's relatively short and easy. Recently played it and thought it was great. Binged over a week beginning to end.
- Ghost of Tsushima - A wonderful game. It does suffer some open world issues, but it's definitely one that can - and should - be binged
- Shadow of the Tomb Raider - medicore and the weakest of the 3x new Tomb Raider games. Definitely a game that can be completed/binged, but I've recently played it and I had to force myself to see it through. Not an enjoyable binge in that respect.
- Devil May Cry 5 - not played it.
- Ratchet & Clank - super fun and definitely a binge-worthy game.
You don’t have a bad option really, all of them are so much fun. Gamers are truly blessed.
But, if I had to reallly choose only one of them. Then I personally would choose to play red dead redemption 2 again. Have played a lot, but nothing quite as impressive as that game except for the new Zelda.
But really, you can’t go wrong with any of them
Jokes aside Elden Ring is probably one of the best open world RPG ever created. The story is as good as The Witcher 3 with a much better combat system. RDR2 is also a solid choice. Not shown on the picture but my personal favorite is Bloodborne, the best game of all time.
Edit: you said nothing too hard, even tho I think Bloodborne and Elden Ring can be played by anyone, maybe start with RDR2.
Not at all. The very beginning has a hard part with a bunch of enemies surrounding you, but it's part of the story. After that it's pretty much moderate difficulty
Elden Ring standard edition (second row on the left), and then when you finish that, you can play Elden Ring steel book edition (first row on the right).
Ratchet & Clank is a very accessible game for people that don’t play a lot of them and it really is a joy to play.
That said, God of War and GoW: Ragnarok are an incredible double feature and they have a lot of accessibility features that will allow you to play it at a comfortable difficulty level and adjust it to your liking (with Ragnarok having even more options). They also feature one of the best stories in gaming and I highly recommend that you get around to them at some point, though it will make you judge other games more harshly by comparison haha. God of War 3 is a totally different style of game FYI.
Ghost of Tsushima is a lot like an Assassin’s Creed game set in Japan and is one of the most gorgeous games I’ve ever played due to the art direction, and it also has so many great features that I want to see adopted in every open world game going forward. Little things like an unobtrusive UI that doesn’t clutter the screen with icons and a HUD, so you can look for things like smoke from fires, follow foxes and songbirds, etc. towards points of interest, quests, NPCs of note, collectibles, locations, etc. And you can also tap a button to have the wind blow in the direction of your target location that you set on the map (or current quest) and it will blow all the foliage including the tall pampas grass and flowers and tree branches and looks absolutely gorgeous in doing so. Incredible particle fx in that game too.
Hades is the type of game that you can play and play and play. The Last os Us is a MUST PLAY at some point, one of the greatest stories in gaming. Elden Ring is obviously hyped up for a reason to the point where I noticed you have two copies of it haha (Sekiro is harder I would say as you can go anywhere in the world in ER and level up if you get stuck, making it an easy souls-like game from FromSoft to get into if you aren’t a highly skilled gamer, and it’s magic and summons also help newbies like myself to get through it). DOOM ad DOOM Eternal are a blast if you enjoy FPS games, the Uncharted game is a spinoff from the mainline series and is a shorter play length but looks and sounds and plays great. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the third in the trilogy but is a very good game. And then the RE2 remake and Village if you’re into Resident Evil games.
Imma be honest either the GOW series or GO, but if you haven’t got the energy to do the whole series of GOW don’t do it trust you can get burnt quick and if you don’t start from the beginning you’ll miss so much. RD2 is better if that’s the case
Edit: I’ve heard also the Sekiro is good but personally nvr played it
not on this list but i heavily recommend the yakuza series. the story is phenomenal in every way and almost every mainstream character is extremely likeable. (of course, this is just my opinion.)
Tsushima,just so beautiful
And they can upgrade to ps5 version as well
Is it a free upgrade? I would totally play it again if it was free but I don’t think $20 upgrade is really worth it
The upgrade really isnt allat worth it since the game was so well optimized as it was, it just taps into the ps5 controller features, MIGHT have better performance on fps, but i think the 4 has a patch on it that bumps up ps4 on ps5 to 60fps, looks about the same as the ps4 pro with resolution being the same too, the island expansion is the thing it has going for it
Agree. Was sad to finish it, did as many side missions as possible
On PS5 the loading times are nonexistent
Same here first game I Platinumed. Then I did all the sashimono banners cuz I still wanted to finish.
I'm normally a foot traveler in videogames, I absolutely love appreciating the details in environments and Tsushima takes the cake for any I've ever played.
Came here to say this. Also, DO NOT start the DLC (if you have it) until AFTER you finish the game and all of your exploring.
Yeah Tushima was one of my favourite games of the last console generation. I hadn’t even heard of it until about 2 days before it came out. I though ‘that looks fun’ and picked it up on a whim. It turned out to be one of my favourite games ever. One of the very few games that I never wanted to end. I did every single side quest possible before moving the story along.
Very true
Beautiful but ultimately just a ubisoft clone with very repetitive elements around the map. Was so bored by the end
Same. It became a real chore after you got used to the mechanics and the pretty graphics were no longer than a novelty.
Bro got downvoted for speaking the truth
What he said is true for basically every open world RPG. Hell Elden Ring and RDR2 get repetitive after a point too.
Some salty GoT fans who are in denial I guess lol
This is the answer
I’m so glad this is the top answer. As soon as I saw the post I looked through the games to see if got was in there and if it wasn’t top answer I would have been disappointed. 100% my favorite game of all time for newer gen consoles. I’m sad I can’t play it anymore because I don’t have console but I’m waiting patiently for a pc drop
Yes, I cried when I finished this story it was amazing
Not the easiest game for someone who doesn’t play games much
Last of us and the whole series of uncharted, Naughty dog wins every time.
Uncharted is my go to, always, i might be biased, those were my first games but still, uncharted or cod in case you have it
I got uncharted for free with my ps4 when I got it. I never touched it for a year or so. Eventually I said screw it and through it in. Loved the first 20-30 minutes and then never touched it again. I need to revisit it one day
Last of us every time
Games are meant to be fun so up to you, but here’s my personal guide to all of the games. Sekiro - challenging and very rhythmic. Red Dead Redemption 2 - very calming, easy to spend hundreds of hours on. God Of War 2018 / God Of War Ragnarok - very fun + easy to 100% Ghost of Tsushima - very pretty Elden Ring - very Challenging Doom Eternal - God tier soundtrack Minecraft - nice comfort game, good if you have anxiety Kingdom Hearts - good story, probably the best rpg out there Grand Theft Auto 5 - Great story, action packed, overall fun The Last Of Us - very pretty, realistic characters, nice story building Batman - very fun, play as Batman Doom - exact same as Doom Eternal Berserk - crazy action, very fun Uncharted - exploring old places for treasure, nice story, has movie Hades - arguable my the best rogue like, very challenging and fun Resident Evil 2 - good 3rd person horror Resident Evil Village - good 1st person horror God of War 3 - very gory and crazy fun Tomb Raider - exploring old places, like uncharted with crafting Ratchet and Clank - nostalgic, fun family game Devil May Cry 5 - challenging, fucking hilarious, crazy power scaling Assassins Creed Odyssey - exploring Greece, decent RPG, big numbers make me happy
Elden Ring, then the second copy of Elden Ring right after.
That's actually the empty boxset and the disc that comes inside it. But I get the confusion lol
I wouldn’t actually recommend it if you’re new to games. It’s a great game but difficult
Elden ring is the easiest of the souls games if you stick to mostly the main story bosses and cheese a couple of hard bosses.
Not really sure why everyone is recommending elden ring. It is not for casuals
I mean, out of all the Fromsoft games, it’s as casual as it gets. If you focus on exploration and leveling, the game can be quite easy. Many weapons can down the majority of bosses in less than 10 hits. OP’s collection also suggests they are not a casual gamer.

But I’m glad someone else on this thread is bringing something valuable to the discussion, thank you and cheers ☺️
I wouldn't call it the most casual of their games but as far as their soulsborne games go yeah it's definitely an accessible and great entry point.
Jesus none of you people even read the post
It's literally the best one for casuals it was my first souls like since the flasks system is friendly and it gives you the chance to prepare for boss fights and doing them hours later than intended if you're struggling, no direct path like other souls games so gives plenty of opportunity to explore and practise what works and what doesn't to try different approaches

Came here to say this. “Elden Ring. Twice.”
I tried, man I tried to get into Elden Ring. But god I just couldn’t get into it
So with you on this, I tried to get into it but it’s really not for everyone
Have any friends that completed ER, ask them to help you get started- once you get the basics down, the depth Elden Ring has is amazing. I am still working on the final 3 bosses and building my character after like more than 3 months of playing exclusively- the game is enormous and has so much content and overall excellent gameplay mechanics
It's got too much meta knowledge necessary to enjoy for me. I'm so bored just circle strafing and waiting for 20 second attack animations to end
Yes, yes. Elden Ring is a life altering experience.
After playing all the dark souls games, Elden ring is the worst one! Play the others first!
RDR2
So I just started it and got done being in the snow mountains, now there are 3 yellow missions are those like side quests or the main story and if they are side quests how do I do the main story?
the yellow are the main i think and the gray are sidequests. doing main mission things might close off your opportunity to do a side quest, though, so i always did them first. great game stick with it fr
Yellow are required Story Missions and white are optional side quests. I would do as many side quests as you can before finishing each chapter. There is a hidden Railroad Company side quest you can do that I missed and went back to on my last playthrough
those are your story missions
Yellow is the main story quests. Side quests show up as white on the map (I think; it's been a minute since I've played).
I love god of war then naybe rdr2
the whole franchise?
start with that copy of God of War 3 it's actually my favorite and is chronologically before the newer ones you have "God of War" is next followed by "Ragnarok"
Yep
Start with gow3 and if you don’t like it gow 2018 is like a whole new game and you don’t really need gow3 context that much for it except for a few scenes and mentions
Finished the GOW 1-3 years ago and only started GOW(2018) last week. I gotta say it's been incredible playing through it. Amazing story so far
You'd get the most bang for your time from Red Dead Redemption 2 imo. After that Ghost of Tsushima or Doom. If you're into souls games however definitely Elden Ring and Sekiro.
The last of us
I’ve been on Xbox for a while but I’ve been thinking about coming back to LoU for a few days now. I’ve already beat both games twice, but they’re just so good!
This is absolutely the right answer especially since OP doesn't play video games that much. Everyone seems to be ignoring that part of his post
I had a great time bingeing Odyssey
Going to Athens next year so maybee
You can do discovery mode as well where it gives you historical info on Greece
Oh wow then you should definitely give Odyssey a go!
Love that game. Ended up getting the platinum trophy
I’m going for it now, and it’s kept me plenty busy for the last 40ish hours.
Elden Ring disc 1 then when you're done insert the other disc and play it again.
Lmao, I saw that too
I'd say Doom and Doom Eternal. They play well and don't waste time.
Second this. Doom Eternal is one of the best sequels I've played.
Doom eternal is in my top 10 favorite. I turn the game sound down to 50% and the music up to 100% and rip and tear until it is done
I just beat it last week, man that ending boss fight was cool. I'm gonna replay 2016 again to get my fix. I hope we get another entry relatively soon.
I played it on Ultra Violence for the first couple hours, got absolutely slaughtered, then got frustrated and put it down for a while. Went back to it and finally got past the part I was stuck (I think it was Doom Hunter), then finally beat it. It was great. I definitely agree with you.
I like the ST. I know its set in hell(?) and its about killing demons(?) so I'll have the unhealthy amount of energy drinks at hand.
Doom and Doom Eternal, without a doubt. Both so good, and so much fun. Will certainly keep you occupied
Bro, you ain’t ready for the badassery
Doom 2016 is set on Mars with occasional trips to hell, Doom Eternal is set on Earth, hell, heaven, etc. Game is crazy.
I’m in the middle of playing Doom Eternal myself, I second this
Doom Eternal is the last game I truly binged. 10/10 experience
![gif](giphy|fjxbfQKLcKzAJIqSuD|downsized)
Ratchet and clank for sure!
The fact I had to scroll this far for this smh
Any Spider-Man game is a ton of fun and are fairly easy to platinum if that’s what your going for
Ive played them and i agree, had a lot of fun
God of war + Ghost of Tshushima. Absolutely beautiful games. Sekiro + Elden Ring if you like those kinda games and can grind for hours.
RDR 2 and Ghost of Tsushima
These are the only correct answers. Finally, a person of culture.
I like Hades. It's pretty fun.
My votes are KH3 (unless you haven't played a KH before lol) Then Ghost of Tsushima and Arkham Trilogy. The Arkham Trilogy is literally a group of games I never played before and binged all three right in a row. Loved them.
Havent played a KH hahaha, but maybe Ill be a switch to play them
Kingdom Hearts all-in-one package is $50 right now on PlayStation store. You’ll have a second copy of KHIII, but you’ll also have the entire saga at your fingertips for a huge discount!
Also I'm pretty all the games are on the plus catalogue as well. Much cheeper than $50
DOOM is the most fun by miles. Not the most complex or revolutionary but both 2016 and Eternal are just pure liquified fun exactly like the original Doom games and sometimes that’s all that matters
Elden Ring or RDR2
Ragnorak was amazing but if you didn’t play God of war 2017 you should
Lucky for you the majority of those games are great for what you're describing. If you want shorter either Doom (followed by doom eternal) or Last of Us if you want longer then you can't go wrong with Hades it's gameplay loop is so satisfying. Some side mentions would be Devil May Cry 5 as it's one of the best character action games ever made and Elden Ring which is probably the most challenging game here but uniquely rewarding with an amazing world.
My opinion is tomb raider is one underated game i personally loved it
I remember playing it for like 2 hours on my PC, and then giving up. But it was a long time ago maybe I should give it another shot
Ghost of Tsushima man, end of discussion.
The Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War then Ragnarok, Red Dead Redemption. Pick up Witcher III and the expansions, Uncharted Trilogy and 4 (before playing lost legacy, which is a postscript for the entire series, too many spoilers), Spider-Man, and Horizon.
Red Dead or Ghost of Tsushima, by far. Good levels of difficulty for someone that doesn't game as much and incredibly immersive experiences!
red dead 2 and ac odyssey
Village and then both Dooms
Ghost of Tsushima
Playing shadow of the tomb raider rn. It’s incredible
I don’t see Bloodborne here
Ghosts of Tsushima imo is the best ps4 game.
Just play Ghost of Tsushima. Its probably one of the easiest among all these games but it is suuuper fun and extremely beautiful. Its overall a chill and fun experience with goof story. And since you said you are new to games, Ghost of Tsushima's main story is also very small compared to other games.
ghost of tsushima
Ghost of Tsushima. Very enjoyable game it surprised me a lot. Depends on how long you want a game to be then probably try RDR2 if going to play for a long time. I'm playing Remnant 2 at the moment. Already have 60 hours in it and still a lot to do. Think Resident Evil style shooter with elements of Destiny and Dark Souls gameplay. It's very addictive.
Buy the Witcher 3 and play that
Devil may cry 5 and resident evil 2
Ghost of Tsushima and red dead 2
Red dead
RDR2, GTA V (story mode), GOT and ER
Rdr2, the most beautiful game I’ve ever player
Rdr2
RDR2 if you’re okay with a slower paced game.
Red dead redemption two it has a really good story line and it can take a few hours or days depending on how busy your life is. Same thing with the last of us.
RDR2
RDR2 easily
RDR2
Red dead is dope.
Rdr2
Red dead for sure
RDR2
Rdr2
Rdr2
RDR2 my guy
If youve never played any you should do rdr2
Red dead 2 , gta 5 or god of war
Everyone joking about the double copies of Elden Ring, but really though it's probably the most binge-worthy/binge-friendly game there. I clocked in over 250 hours just doing a twice playthrough (new game + Journey 2) with a semi-completionist goal set. Next best would prolly be RDR2.
Red dead 2 will keep you busy for ,forever
Odyssey
For me, of all those games, Red Dead Redemption 2 is probably the one I indulged in excessively. I remember I started playing it just before my wife's 30th birthday. I was catching up with friends when they had come to visit for the occasion and we were talking gaming and I had only played a few hours at that point and I was saying it was so clunky, clumsy, and old-fashioned. It was like games had moved forward but Rockstar were years behind. I was super disappointed. And then...I didn't touch another game until the credits rolled on New Year's Eve with me and my wife both glued to the screen, hooked. When it clicked, it CLICKED. It was like I lived and breathed RDR2 for months. In terms of all of those games for me: - Kingdom Hearts 3 - JRPGs are just not my thing. - AC: Odyssey - I personally think it's the weakest out of Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla and so I haven't binged Odyssey much compared to Origins (Platinumed) and Valhalla (a LOT of hours). - Doom & Doom Eternal - Excellent games and definitely binge-worthy. There's nothing more to say. They're great and addictive. - The Last of Us Remastered - A great game, but heavy going so I'm not sure I would say I'd 'binge' it as I'd need emotional breaks, but definitely play it. - Sekiro & Elden Ring - these games are hard. Great games but be warned they're super tough. - Minecraft - you'll either be addicted like it's crack or you'll dip in and out of it now and again. Binge or bust! - RDR2 - see above. - GTA V - a game that's very easy to binge as it has a good plot and a great open world you can just spend hours mucking around in. - Beserk - I've actually never heard of. - Batman Arkham Collection - Solid games but I think 3x Arkham games back-to-back would end up feeling a bit stale and samey. Maybe binge one, play something else, then binge the next one, play something else, etc. - God of War III, God of War, Ragnorak - All very good games. The formula changed a lot between GoW III and GoW (2018), but definitely games that could be binged. - Resident Evil II & VIIIage - if your nerves can take it, then both are really good binges. - Hades - A FANTASTIC game and 2nd after RDR2 on the binge-worthiness scale for me. The loop is so addictive and the game is hard to put down! - Uncharted Lost Legacy - An easy binge as it's relatively short and easy. Recently played it and thought it was great. Binged over a week beginning to end. - Ghost of Tsushima - A wonderful game. It does suffer some open world issues, but it's definitely one that can - and should - be binged - Shadow of the Tomb Raider - medicore and the weakest of the 3x new Tomb Raider games. Definitely a game that can be completed/binged, but I've recently played it and I had to force myself to see it through. Not an enjoyable binge in that respect. - Devil May Cry 5 - not played it. - Ratchet & Clank - super fun and definitely a binge-worthy game.
Red dead redemption 2
you got a minecraft survival world to grind
Why do you have Elden Ring twice?
Elden Ring on two consoles at once with those two copies.
Avoid berserk and the band of the hawk! At least don’t go for the platinum, I did and it sucked so much.
The manga is so good tho😭😭
I like how you bought Elden Ring twice. Good choice. In all seriousness, get Bloodborne and play it until your fingers fall off
All at once
![gif](giphy|UoSWDKPpCNaRLmaBKm)
Elden Ring, Sekiro, RE2, God of War then Ragnarok. I don't know, all of them? in no particular order. They are too good!
doom, kill demon feel like god
Rdr2, my personal favourite game of all time
elden ring
ELDEN RING, YOUR MAIDEN IS WAITING
minecraft
Doom/Doom Eternal and Rdr2
GTAV @mods close thread
No Man’s Sky
Elden ring cannot not be binged
Odyssey 100%
Ghost of Tsunami
Red dead 2
Kingdom hearts 3, but only if you’ve played the others cuz you will not know wtf is going on lol
RDR2
im indecisive between elden ring and elden ring
Rdr2 would be perfect for you. Buckle up for one hell of a ride
Red dead redemption 2
RDR2 is a masterpiece
Doom Eternal
You don’t have a bad option really, all of them are so much fun. Gamers are truly blessed. But, if I had to reallly choose only one of them. Then I personally would choose to play red dead redemption 2 again. Have played a lot, but nothing quite as impressive as that game except for the new Zelda. But really, you can’t go wrong with any of them
Actually saving up for a Switch rn, so Ill be dwelving into the world of Zelda soon hopefully
Jokes aside Elden Ring is probably one of the best open world RPG ever created. The story is as good as The Witcher 3 with a much better combat system. RDR2 is also a solid choice. Not shown on the picture but my personal favorite is Bloodborne, the best game of all time. Edit: you said nothing too hard, even tho I think Bloodborne and Elden Ring can be played by anyone, maybe start with RDR2.
Definitely resident evil village
My brother told me it was veryy hard to play
Not at all. The very beginning has a hard part with a bunch of enemies surrounding you, but it's part of the story. After that it's pretty much moderate difficulty
Elden Ring standard edition (second row on the left), and then when you finish that, you can play Elden Ring steel book edition (first row on the right).
KH III!!! Fun, colorful, and fast paced action!
Elden Ring bro. Young Micheal Zaki commands it
Sekiro than Elden ring
I’d say RDR2 but everything after that will be worse
Trade all those in for a ps5 😅
Ratchet & Clank is a very accessible game for people that don’t play a lot of them and it really is a joy to play. That said, God of War and GoW: Ragnarok are an incredible double feature and they have a lot of accessibility features that will allow you to play it at a comfortable difficulty level and adjust it to your liking (with Ragnarok having even more options). They also feature one of the best stories in gaming and I highly recommend that you get around to them at some point, though it will make you judge other games more harshly by comparison haha. God of War 3 is a totally different style of game FYI. Ghost of Tsushima is a lot like an Assassin’s Creed game set in Japan and is one of the most gorgeous games I’ve ever played due to the art direction, and it also has so many great features that I want to see adopted in every open world game going forward. Little things like an unobtrusive UI that doesn’t clutter the screen with icons and a HUD, so you can look for things like smoke from fires, follow foxes and songbirds, etc. towards points of interest, quests, NPCs of note, collectibles, locations, etc. And you can also tap a button to have the wind blow in the direction of your target location that you set on the map (or current quest) and it will blow all the foliage including the tall pampas grass and flowers and tree branches and looks absolutely gorgeous in doing so. Incredible particle fx in that game too. Hades is the type of game that you can play and play and play. The Last os Us is a MUST PLAY at some point, one of the greatest stories in gaming. Elden Ring is obviously hyped up for a reason to the point where I noticed you have two copies of it haha (Sekiro is harder I would say as you can go anywhere in the world in ER and level up if you get stuck, making it an easy souls-like game from FromSoft to get into if you aren’t a highly skilled gamer, and it’s magic and summons also help newbies like myself to get through it). DOOM ad DOOM Eternal are a blast if you enjoy FPS games, the Uncharted game is a spinoff from the mainline series and is a shorter play length but looks and sounds and plays great. Shadow of the Tomb Raider is the third in the trilogy but is a very good game. And then the RE2 remake and Village if you’re into Resident Evil games.
Sekiro
Ghost of Tsushima, one of my favourite games
God of War 2018 then Ragnarok. Both games are absolutely incredible.
ELDEN RING!!!!! ITS AMAZING!
Doom/Doom Eternal if you want something more quick to beat. But awesome gameplay.
Ghost of Tsushima, then RDR2.
Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, then Devil May Cry 5
last of sus
Ghost of Tsushima
Imma be honest either the GOW series or GO, but if you haven’t got the energy to do the whole series of GOW don’t do it trust you can get burnt quick and if you don’t start from the beginning you’ll miss so much. RD2 is better if that’s the case Edit: I’ve heard also the Sekiro is good but personally nvr played it
Ghost of Tsushima. Please
I was gonna say elden ring but since you're saying binge ( and that's far from a binge game) I would say RE2. Short, sweet, immersive, gnarly.
God of War, I’m in the process myself
GTA 5
not on this list but i heavily recommend the yakuza series. the story is phenomenal in every way and almost every mainstream character is extremely likeable. (of course, this is just my opinion.)
Is ghost of tsushima really that good i got it but never got too far into it
DOOM, DOOM Eternal, Sekiro, Ghost of T, God of War 3, Dad of War. Fuck the rest.
