Alot of the time I’ll be playing will be in-between calls at work so being able to pause any time is important. The only one I’ve played is god of war but I never finished it .
Titanfall 2 is one of the greatest games of all time (I would say it is easily a top 50, maybe even a top 20). The singleplayer campaign is just ridiculously well designed and even has a surprising amount of pathos in the narrative.
But if you are likely to be regularly interrupted? Horizon Zero Dawn. most of the story quests are 10-15 minutes each and you can just do the checklist open world the rest of the time.
Damn. I loved horizon, but gow… Now you’re making me want to play it again and all you had to do was show me the box. I have like 1,000 hours and ten playthroughs of horizon 1 too. Aaaa I’m trying to finish cyberpunk
I’d start with Bioshock. It’s definitely worth playing, but probably a bit dated feeling now. I really like HZD, it’s excellent, but God of War is by far my favorite. Combat is incredible, story is an awesome “not revisionist history” of mythology, and Chris Judge as Kratos is just 👌
I liked but also kinda hated bioshock. All of them together. They are good games but all three show their age already.
Horizon was enjoyable enough but it’s the same post apocalyptic plotline I have seen in a few other games and movies, one I could list without having to look up if I knew how to spoiler tag.
GoW is excellent and it’s all about Mimir. I legit want Ragnarok on PC just for more Mimir. Please and thank you. My only gripe with the game is I went to do a bunch of side quests during the chapter where Atreus had his little shit phase and the dialogue became really weird and his attitude kept doing all kinds of flips and shit. My rec is progress main until he gets over himself before any backtracking.
All amazing. God of War has such a wonderful moving story and great combat. Horizon Zero Dawn is an expansive open world game with also a great story. It also has a lot of additional info in discoverable content, like logs to read and sound clips. So, it depends on how deep you want to dive, but I’d recommend both those games. God of war is more challenging on higher difficulties. I loved them both. Probably Horizon Zero Dawn just a little better than God of War, but then, I loved God of War Ragnarok more than Horizon Forbidden West.
Horizon Zero Dawn is a good game in that it is pretty, has an interesting world, and has good combat mechanics, but it is open-world in the worst way possible. It has hundreds of meaningless side quests, the rewards for which are literally just loot boxes of crafting components (often times just containing more loot boxes). Also the voice acting for most NPCs is inexcusably bad and breaks immersion, but that’s a minor gripe.
If you play Horizon, I honestly recommend sticking close to the main story and making a b-line for the end. It is a hugely bloated game.
Titanfall 2 has a great gameplay and surprisingly good story with the added bonus to not try to lock you in for 300 hours for no reason with stupid boring side quest or “activities”.
Titanfall 2. Its the only game I’ve ever played to successfully integrate time travel in a way that makes sense and feels good. They could have built an entire game around that mechanic alone and you only get it for a single level.
Also, the campaign in general is top-notch storytelling for an FPS.
