I’ve recently bought an RX 6700XT and before it arrives I want to install some games to play. I would prefer singelplayer games but I’m not against some (not too expensive) mutliplayer games. I recently played rdr2 and it’s definetly one of my favories games ever. I also enjoy Cities: Skylines. I haven’t played many singleplayer games yet but I would appreciate some recommendations.

    In case you aren’t already aware, Cities: Skylines 2 comes out October 24th

    Other than that I can only really reccomend you strategy games cause thats what I play lol.

    From the same publisher as Cities: Skylines are the most popular grand strategy games, often refered to as Paradox (the company) games. Biggest ones are Eu4 (Europa Universalis 4) and HoI4 (Hearts of Iron 4), but there are quite a few others. Keep in mind however that these games with all DLC will cost you an arm and a leg, Paradox is heavy on DLC. But there are subscriptions for them, so $5 per month to have all the DLC, which is significantly cheaper until you play for 100000 years (I think more like 5 years before that $5 adds up to what it would’ve cost to buy the DLC). If you aren’t already into these, do know that they’re hard games to learn, I mostly learned how to play by watching youtuber lets plays of them.

    Total War games are also good, I personally like Empire, Naloleon, and Shogun II / Fall of the Samurai / Rise of the Samurai. If you’ve never heard of them, they’re a mix of a grand strategy turn based game in the campaign map, and a pausable RTS in the actual battles where you control your units and fight it out.

      Yeah I own almost all up to date paradox game except Vic 3. I got like 300 hours on Hoi4 but stopped because without most DLCs the game’s just ok. EU4 is a game though I’ve tried multiple times to get into but same here with the DLCs. Also an issue I have with paradox games is that I never know what to do. There’s just so much to do and to consider that I can never set me a goal to reach. Total War is something I’ll definetly check out. I’ve heard alot about it but never seen alot. Thanks for the recommendation.
