Gaming Need a good Dad video game.

[SMRTSS1]

I need a decent game that I can play while still fulfilling my fatherly duties. Meaning something I can play while my son is sleeping or for a little bit after he goes to bed at night. I’ve played and finished God Of War and Spider-Man and I loved the games because I could pause or quit and not really lose anything. I’m currently trying not to throw my controller into a wall with Mortal Kombat 11 and I’m looking for something new.
I love FPS games (Call Of Duty) but I don’t have time to dedicate to ranking up to get better gear so I don’t get even more decimated than I already do. I was thinking Destiny 2 but again grinding to get better gear just isn’t going to happen.
Something single player or not too in depth online play with action is perfect but I just don’t know what’s out there right now.
Racing games are good but I don’t know what’s out there.
Any ideas would be great.

I keep going back to This War of Mine. Its a single player survival game. Lots of different scenarios to play through as well.

 

[DEEZUZ]

Red dead is awesome when casually playing

You could explore some of the role play worlds. The Elder Scrolls series for instance. You don't need to even do the main quest if you don't want to.

I play Red Dead and still GTAV with my kids. Also not as fun for me, but my 4 and 5 year olds love playing Injustice. They can win fights on easy.

I assume you’ve played all the olde greats? Like The last of Us, Bioshock, Borderlands, etc?

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Anything single player and offline

I am in the same boat. I just finished crackdown and going to start the Titanfall 2 campaign story.

Rdr2 is good. Took me a few weeks to get through it playing an hour here and there, and I flew through it. Tons of stuff to do in the game if you are an award/ trophy hunter.

Fallout 4

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Borderlands is good unless you’re deep in a campaign.

World of tanks or world of warships. It’s online but battles don’t last long overall and who cares if you have to ditch out

Fallout 4

I need to pick that game up.

Just don't get fallout 76

Anyone play Ace Combat 7 or any other combat flight sim games?

I played a portion of it. Until I got to one mission that pissed me off so much I rage quit and have never gone back to it. It was fun up until that point.

If you want to dedicate a lot of free time, Days Gone isn't bad. They ironed out some of the bugs that were common on release day (audio being off on dialog, glitchy cutscenes). I spent about 80 hours or so on the game to mainly beat the game, but did get the platinum trophy for it. There's hordes of zombies, different types of zombies, cracked out humans to be aware of, & other human beings to avoid.

There is a new Wolfenstein coming in a few months. I plan on getting that.
Meanwhile I may have to check out some of these, I need a good game to play offline

To show how much time I don’t spend playing online I just renewed my PSN subscription that expired in October so I could pick up a few online fights in MK11.

FYI; Shao Kahn is practically unbeatable in towers when he has the armor shield on. I hit him a few dozen times with combos and special moves and his health bar barely moved, he hit me 4 times and I was done.

Just don't get fallout 76

So damn disappointing. I bought it and RDR2 at the same time expecting to split time between them, I think I played Fallout 76 for maybe 4 or 5 hours and havent touched it since.



And I LOVE the Fallout series....


What system are you playing on @SMRTSS1 ??? Nevermind, the newest post says something about your PSN subscription so that answers the question....


Let me see what games I have at home tonight that Im done with, youre more than welcome to any of them if you want any of them....
