I’m looking for PC games that I can play while listening to podcasts- games that don’t have engaging cut scenes or important dialogue, games that honestly don’t require a lot of skill or thought.
I used to be really into things like Farm Frenzy, Rescue Team, hidden object games, that kind of thing. I got heavily into MMOs and stopped downloading casual games for a decade or so.
Now it almost feels like this sort of game isn’t made anymore? Were they completely nuked by the existence of Gacha games, P2W, and anything that earns the dev a constant income stream? I’m happy to pay for a game once, but I can’t be constantly buying booster packs.
I also don’t want to play on mobile or on a console, PC Master Race here, haha.
Came here just write just that! got into Guild Wars 2 some months ago. The first part of the has cut-scenes, but the story is somewhat short. Once it is over you may repeat parts of it, but you can also ignore it.
I currently use it to turn off my brain, just roaming around the huge world, with full control on how intensive the game is. Do I work on some end-game mount ? do I roam high-level areas ? or do I just chill and jump between low-level areas ?
However, I don’t listen to music while doing so, as the game’s music creates a very nice atmosphere.
