Wasteland 2 (good story, fun, well written. 60 to 100+ hours of gameplay) It's like the old fallout

Or try a voxel sandbox. Space engineers for example.

Welcome to my life for the past 2 years.......

Randomly going back into a game for 1 hour then already bored again..........


No game can get my interest.

Lately, I've gotten tired of many mainstream titles, and so I've found a lot of fun in difficult games made by smaller groups of people. Besides more well known games like FTL (which is amazing and I highly recommend it if you haven't played it yet), I've come across the genre of precision platformers (platformers that kick my trash in a way that Mario and Sonic never did).

For a challenge, try one of the following:

Option 1: Get Wings of Vi (available on Steam) and beat my time on the leaderboards. You can get a demo of the game to try it out before you buy it.

Option 2: Download I Wanna Kill the Kamilia, which is a free fangame based off I Wanna Be the Guy. Beat it on any difficulty.

Either game will kill you at least two or three thousand times before you beat them and will possibly (ok, almost definitely) make you rage, but it is very rewarding once you beat them. I've done both in the last few months, and now I'm discovering more games like them to keep me busy until LotV comes out. Cheers!

Wings of vi is my favorite game since The Binding of Issac. Play BoI, FTL, risk of rain, Wings of Vi, all of these games are amazing single player experiences.

the obvious choice is broodwar because it's about 50000x better than the shitshow that sc2 continue to be since HOTS and looks to want to die as in LOTV. it'll be hard getting into it nowadays, D players on iccup have ~200 apm, but the community is nice so i'm sure you'll be able to find a few practice partners around your skill level.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

ssbm needs a console though right? The only console I've ever owned is a 360 that I used for netflix so I don't really know much about the console scene, smash looks fun as hell though from what I've seen but I've never really looked into it much since it's a console title

I just checked out Wings of Vi and it's infuriatingly awesome. Such a fantastic game so far, and I've only gotten to the two spitting lasercannons after the first real boss. One of them fires fast missiles, the other one fires at a high frequency.... 50 deaths already!

You should consider super meat boy. You can find it on steam. It's a platformer and a lot of fun especially the difficulty ramps up as the game goes on.

Funny, for me rotating through SC2 (including arcade games), HotS, WoW, Hearthstone, and Dota2 is more than enough; I feel I can seriously put in time to improve and progress in only 2 of them at a time, so I don't touch the others for a while which makes them interesting again. My brother bought me a big pack of indie games on Steam for Christmas and I still haven't gotten around to playing any of them...

If you're really burnt out I would recommend some of the "classic" single player games, if nothing else just to see what they're about before you go back to competitive stuff. Games I myself tried for this:

Half Life and Half Life 2,
the Mass Effect Trilogy,
Bioshock and Bioshock Infinite,
LA Noire,
Dishonored,
Skyrim,
Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2,
The Walking Dead
and, one I haven't played yet but really want to one day: KOTOR

All of these besides Skyrim I greatly enjoyed and would recommend, and even Skyrim I can see and understand the appeal (it just wasn't for me)

Once I get home to my main PC this is what I'm checking out next. Until then, I Wanna Kill the Kamilia 2 is wrecking me on my crappy laptop :D

Reminds me of myself recently, the gaming passion just died even when lots of good games available.
Sc2 remains the only One that keeps me coming back.

paper please is quite an interesting game that I played during my downtime. It's weird but pretty awesome overall

Binding of Isaac and FTL are amazing, and they are surprisingly deep games. Definitely enough to keep you entertained for possibly hundreds of hours if you happen to enjoy them. There are a lot of good recommendations in this thread but in the end it's up to you to see what you like and try things out. You're bound to find a game that just clicks for you and can play for hours on end eventually.

Do you enjoy single player games at all? There are some awesome rogue-likes out right now that deliver in the replay value department. Like if you haven't gotten around to trying The Binding of Isaac yet I would absolutely recommend it, Spelunky is also a good buy though I would take BOI Rebirth for the money. I'm also a bit of a broken record when it comes to suggesting Dark Souls. Between experiencing the game casually, doing challenge/speed runs and invading/dueling you can put an absurd amount of time in to that game. The downside is you basically need an xbox 360 controller.


I'm also gonna recommend the hell out of Binding of Isaac, hundreds of hours of replayability. One of my absolute favorite games ever.



my steam feed is filled with people playing this and I've still not tried. Maybe it's time to change that.

Old as hell and kinda buggy, but TF2 is a seriously good game to enjoy.

EDIT: agree with other posts that you should take a break from gaming. I think you might be a bit overloaded and a month or two break from serious gaming to focus on physical activity, whether that be a sport, an instrument, a social club, or just a new workout might vary it up enough to bring some more fun back.


are we nerd buddies on steam? I lose track of everyone's name. I still play tf2 a good amount, pm me your steam name!

I remember this from another topic, you can play on PC. Never got into it myself though.

No game can get my interest.

Aside from games i could play with friends, i have had this feeling for a while as well.

Then i played crusader kings 2. First game where I've woken up in the morning excited to play, since i was a kid. Played 150 hours in the last month. ...
