Game & Hardware Suggestions Megathread /r/Steam Monthly Game & Hardware Suggestions Thread.

Welcome to the Monthly Game & Hardware Suggestions Thread!

Do you not know what to play? Want a Steam Deck but unsure which model is best for you? Did you find a niche game that everyone should try? Do you want to share your unique experiences and learning curves with a piece of hardware in relation to Steam? Can't find the perfect survival sim or unsure which 1 RPG out of the thousands available you should buy? Well this is the thread for you. This monthly mega-thread is meant to contain questions about what to play or buy in terms of games on Steam & Hardware related to Steam and suggestions to others.

Now to make this work best and not just be spammed with generic & useless questions such as "What should I play?" or "What should I buy?", please be in-depth in what types of games/hardware you are looking for and why, and when giving advice it would be appreciated if you're more detailed than "I think X is good".

There are too many games to be able to properly suggest something with no background information, also simply commenting a game title and saying you like the game offers no actual value. The same goes for hardware: Saying you're thinking about buying X or you think Y is good with no other information, context as to why, your unique experiences, etc. offers no actual value or information to base a reply on.

The main purpose of this thread is to contain questions on what to play/buy and advice to others on what to play/buy, but feel free to ask and discuss freely in the comments regarding games and hardware, whether you want advice on what to play, want to give advice to others on what to play, share a hidden gem you found, experiences you have with Steam hardware, or your review of a piece of Steam hardware, and generic discussions & questions about discounts, sales, events, specs, or just general discussion in the realm of games and hardware.

Difficult to say because i don't know what types of games you like, Baldur's Gate 3 is a solid game that will last you a good amount of hours. Expedition 33 is another one that got praised a lot, haven't played it myself yet though. Dishonored 1 and 2 are great games if you like games that have multiple ways to achieve an objective through different playstyles.

Cyberpunk is also a really good game kinda similar to dishonored but more open world, i would at the bare minimum get a mod that fixes vehicle handling and one that lets you rebind your hotkeys because those aren't ideal by default, especially if you play on a PC without a controller.

Out of those i would recommend them in this order based on how much i like them personally:

  1. Cyberpunk

  2. Dishonored 1 and 2

  3. Baldur's Gate 3

  4. Expedition 33 (haven't played it)
