What PC games would yâall recommend for someone who isnât really a gamer? For reference, the last game I played in earnest was Portal 2. I just built myself a kick-ass new machine and it should do pretty well as a gaming box.

Cyberpunk 2077 is coming out soon. Most anticipated game of the year, if not the decade. It may be the only good thing to come out of 2020.

Shadow of the Tomb Raider is definitely worth a look.

There are a bunch of good free-to-play mmoâs out there. Wonât cost anything to try them and if you like one or two then you can opt for spending a little money to get more features and goodies.
Hereâs a list I found:
Also, World Of Tanks if you like WWII era tanks. Itâs a bit grindy though.
And Warzone for battle royale.

Dragon Quest XI is one of the best games if you donât play often. Here is a stellar review by Tim Rogers. Special addition is coming out for consoles and PC next month. It released on Switch about a year ago. Review for that is here. Absolutely hilarious writing.
Edit: Completely convinced I will never appreciate another RPG out there more than this one. The entire game feels like a museum of itself.The people in every town talk about the local culture attractions of where they live. New locations feel like places genuinely lived in having an overabundance of extra detail.The game tells you a mini recap every time you boot it up, so itâs possible to put it down for weeks or even months not having to worry about getting lost.Your allies (made up of characters with compelling backgrounds explored throughout the campaign) are free to chat any time. They have an unfathomable amount of dialogue.The whole world feels connected. One day you might encounter a mother who misses seeing her son after he became a soldier. 14 hours later in the game, youâll meet that same soldier mentioning how he misses his mom. Environments have stupid amounts of care put into them. Youâll think endlessly to yourself, âThis place must be important somehow.â No, itâs just part of the environment. Then moments that are actually important feel like theyâre out of a movie rather than a video game cutscene.There is no better way to describe it other than saying itâs a game world overjoyed to have a player roaming around in it.
Edit 2: Here are some tips!

Or in my case, PC or iPad/iPhone games for brief time wasters that will not tempt me to spend $ for in-game advantages, and who thinks that Missle Command, Centipede, and Frogger were all OK, but really liked Tempest, Asteroids, Qix, and Robotron.
Could handle Zork!, Colossal Cave, and Leisure Suit Larry, Liked Ultima, but not Ultima III. And the only time got hooked on gaming it was Evony (like Civilization). Thatâs why Iâm concerned about $$$.
I play various versions of Bejeweled, and an occasional Angry Bird, free versions only.
In the real world, I used to think Chess was OK, but I refused to study it. Go is nice, but also worthy of too much study, and I spend countless hours and much money playing Duplicate Contract Bridge.

Eternium on tablet or phone is a really old school RPG with pay-to-play added on top. Theyâll take your money if youâre naive, but let you play most everything if you understand traditional game strategy and competition. Not so many people do these daysâŠ

The problem with Evony was in-alliance comms. I usually was officer to vice-host level of one of the top alliances. Server migrations, coordinating people around the world to place cities interspersed with cities of people in other time zones, text messaging alerts, bot programming, and endless refinement of battle strategy takes a toll. Especially as a server matures, or experienced players made grabs on new servers as they started up. It was common for people to spend $500 or more with their friends on a new server to level up quickly for an advantage. Itâs an insanity I donât want to do again. I will not WILL NOT abandon a client in real life so I can defend a city.
Not saying that Eternium is that kind of game, but that is the sort of thing I wish to avoid. Iâve considered getting involved in Bridge online, but Iâm rusty, and it is also a huge time-sink.

If youâre anything like me youâll probably just end up playing Solataire, Online Sodoku or Tetris. Lol. All those powerful components and itâs still the simple games which often grab my attention.

- Resident Evil 2 Remake
- God of War
- Spiderman PS4

Trust me, if I could get you a next gen nVidia card the way I got mine, I would. Alas, I could only get one.

And with a RAM upgrade a few days laterâŠ
From 16 GB 2x8 kit(3200) to entertaining Vanguance RGB Pro 32 GB 4x8 Kit(3600) in white.
It is a MSI Gaming X Trio 3070, though. Gonna get me a 3080 ti/super next year and stick the 3070 into my wifeâs PC.
Upgrade the CPU(Last Gen Ryzen 3600x which I got cheap for 180Euro - now in) to a 5800x later next year and give it a blingy watercooling Block.
Though the Noctua 12s aircooler is the little brother from my D15, which is in my other old pc⊠and hey it is dead silent as well. Has more a better heatpipes compared to the dual Tower/fan D15(we rock the beige/Brown)
Have the X570 Tomahawk Wifi MoBo with 2x Gen4 980 Pro Samsung NVME M2s, 1x 1TB SSD and a 2TB SSD in the Back.
NZXT modular 850 PSU⊠Super stiff cables, which are a pain. Need some custom ones for the CPU and GPU.
For now the Be Quiet 500dx case is better, as expected.
Reviews were on Point. Ordered 3 additional Noctua 14 fans and keep the 3 Be Quiet ones, which came with the Case.
Will build the upgrades in a Lian Li O11D ROG âder Bauerâ XL in white.
Had it Here,
too big for the rooms, is what she said.
Move the setup to another room in spring, after the remote working is over. Have there way more space and add a 27inch screen in verticalâŠ
For now Iâm fine with the 4k gaming Power out of this build. Forza is way over the 60fps mark and I bought some older stuff, like Fallen Order, Titanfall 2, GR Wildlands, BF5 and have a few old physical games like GTA5. My PS 4 Pro gets no use, at the Moment.
Running it with 43inch LG and MX Keys plus and a Master 3, as peripherals
Mainly it is a nice upgrade from my old notebook, I did use for working remote. Main problem was, the HDMI out supported just 1080p.
Now I can use both, with the flow feature of my Logi stuff.
Payed 200 over MSRP, for the GPU, though saved around 500 bucks with other parts, especially the 43inch LG and the SSDs

Thanks Prof.
The Motherboard is like a Unicorn - over engineered. After many very poor built x570 MoBoâs by MSI. They were like beaten up by reviewers over and over.
So they decided, to Shine.
Compares well to Others 4times the price. Guess it could become a future Classic, at least what some respecteted reviewers sayâŠ
The rest is Mainstream.
Ok the 2 x 980 Pro ⊠7GB per second⊠Nothing one really needs LoL

Iâm solidly in the wait and see camp, at the moment. My pc doesnât need an upgrade, but Iâm now doing video editing a lot and the Ryzen 5 chips are starting to look really attractive for both rendering and gaming.
The new RTX cards are completely unavailable still.
Kinda jealous, I wonât lie!
