Here's a look at some of my favorite games. I must say pretty much anything from PS is my favorite. Ragnarok, Helldivers, Spider-Man, Ratchet and Clank, etc.
What I love: Primarily story-driven, third-person, high-fidelity, single-player games with solid fighting characteristics with simple upgrade paths. FPS are cool too. Anything with "power fantasy".
What I hate: Anything complicated that I have to scower the internet just to learn how to play. Anything with classes or numerical attributes (Strength, Vitality, etc). I know this comprises many popular games, and if you like it, I'm happy for you, it's just not for me.
Edit: no corporate trash. No Ubisoft, EA, Rockstar, Denuvo, or remote accounts.
Jumping on here to give a second recommendation for Hi-Fi Rush. Game was so good i had to quit before finishing. Finally came back to it to see the ending and it was just as amazing as I thought. Very emotionally satisfying game.
I liked HiFi Rush but there was some sort of latency issue in my system and no way to compensate for it.
See i thought I had an issue like that as well (an not saying you don't at all, only anecdotal) but turned out i just suck. Playing Osu and retraining my brain to follow rhythym or atleast get back into it on a moments notice REALLY helped hifi rush click for me.
Went from D'ing every level to S'ing the finales, bosses, and endings. Not sure if it was cause it finally just clicked, I understood the rhythym, or maybe it being a different pc i also had that issue an just didn't know it lol.
Nah I remember this from the old Guitar Hero games except they had a built-in calibration. I've got a new setup now with a dedicated gaming monitor so I'll try it again.
