I'll second the Mass Effect series. When I play that game, I become one with Shepard.
Chores? Mooom, I'm busy saving the universe!
Comment has been collapsed.
Am I the only one that found Mass Effect kind of tedious, repetitive, and eventually boring?
Hmm ... maybe I just didn't make it far enough into the story?
Comment has been collapsed.
You're welcome!
Those games, almost all of them are "Choose your own path" games...
It makes you feel like YOU are the Main Char... And then you're making your own story and sweating cold because you have to do a hard choice...
10/10 would play again...

Are you interested in non-Steam versions? I might be able to get you The Witcher 1 (and possibly 2) at GOG.
Comment has been collapsed.
Very good list. Perhaps I would also add Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning to it.

I'm having a though time, and I'm using Skyrim as well. Pretty immersive, and fun too.

Mirror's edge. It's so beautiful =]
Also Anno 2070. It's a city-builder set in the future where you have to combat environmental changes and such. The music is so beautiful though.

Fek genres, right? :P
Have this also

If you decide to go with the Bloodlines option, remember to install the fan-patch. It fixes a lot of problems and re-introduces some cut content. I love Bloodlines, I consider it to be one of the best games ever made, but it's broken out of the box (even with all the patches applied, without patches, it's literally broken, as in you can't finish it due to a bug in the main campaign).

- Terraria's nice. When your life is in ruins, BUILD A GIANT CASTLE!
- Assassin's Creed 2 (and sequels) - I'm goddamn Ezio climbing St. Peter's Basilica! Then jumping and killing some schmucks right under it!
- The Sims 3 - create likenesses of people you hate, and trap them in a house fire! Drown them in pools! Or just give them a shitty life in general!
Seriously though, hopefully things get better soonish for you.

I have never found a game to make me lose my mind like This War of Mine. Absolutely love that game and really need to play it again but my god damn backlog keeps growing. It is also on sale right now on Steam.
Comment has been collapsed.
I love the game so much I bought it DRM free after playing it on Steam so I could make sure I always have it. Well worth the price, amazing storyline and a game that has made me tear up more than once.
Good luck with your future and just remember, as one chapter ends another opens. Take this as a new beginning step forward and lead with the best foot you have.

The best way to get over a woman is with another woman. Go out, party hard and meet new girls!

Grandpa used to always say "If you wanna get over a woman, get on top of her best friend."

Witcher series is always a great distraction for me. Lately though, Ive been sinking a lot of time into Eurotruck Sim, Windward, and Poker Night 2 when I need a distraction.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sadly most of the games I know with great stories are depressing to some degree:
Life is Strange Episode 1 was bundled before
Cognition, an Erica Reed Thriller Bundled before
Spec Ops - The Line (you have it in library)
Deponia: The Complete Journey, this one is quite funny actually, it's a remastered version of the Deponia trilogy (Deponia, Chaos on Deponia and Goodbye Deponia).Not bundled, but each episodes were bundled before!
Borderlands 2 GOTY On sale + was bundled before!
So I would say Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning or the Cybertron games (War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron).
Or Dead or Alive 5 :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha yeah I know what you mean! But as long as it's not specifically to do with a break up hopefully it should be a good experience. Perhaps time to fire up Spec Ops, but I will check out your other recommendations too! Got another suggestions for Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning, so perhaps will scout around for any deals on that.
Thank you for the advice and helpful information :D
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll second Kingdoms of Amalur. Really fantastic game that deserved more attention than it got. It came out around the same time as Skyrim, so it got heavily overshadowed.
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't know much about the Civilization series but I've heard good thing so perhaps nows the time to check them out - thanks!

You can really get lost in the game if you like it. I started a match one night and had to go to bed early to wake up at 5 a.m. to go on a long drive for vacation purposes. Let's just say ... I never had to wake up.

well, Knights of Pen and Paper +1 Edition is fun. i have a spare key if you want it. not easy your stuff
really, add me on steam
Comment has been collapsed.
That is really kind! I will add you but please feel free to keep it if you were going to play it yourself, I have lots of suggestions here I can use :)
Comment has been collapsed.
already got mine. bought the bundle for other stuff and for it's DLC.
fun game
Comment has been collapsed.
you could play mindless games like painkiller or serious sam, they just distract you.
maybe you'd prefer a more immersive experience, deus ex: hr and wolfenstein: the new order, for example?
or a time-demanding game, like witcher 3, fallout new vegas, skyrim, or baldur's gate 2?
Comment has been collapsed.
Those are great suggestions, I've heard a lot of recommendations for the Witcher series. My laptop may not be able to play Witcher 3, but I may try and pick up one of the previous ones later this evening :) Thanks again!
Comment has been collapsed.
it's worth starting from the witcher 1 and going through witcher 2. they are pretty old so your laptop will probably run them (specially witcher 1!). they are also super cheap. :3
Comment has been collapsed.
Sounds good. Maybe by the time I've got through 1 & 2 I might have a new system to play 3 on :D (and hopefully I'll be over the break up by then!)
Comment has been collapsed.
BATMAN! - SMASH AND BREAK FACES!
Hearthstone? - slow-paced strategy card game
Chivalry Medieval Warfare - Moar faces to crush with your HAMMER
Don't Starve - nice and calm survival
Speed Runners is funny one - was given away for free days ago
The Witcher and Gothic games are great RPGs
Whispered World for a good story?
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you for the list, well thought out suggestions! I may well play some hearthstone later on :D
I've heard enough about the Witcher to want to pick it up now, so will scout for some deals on that too!
Cheers for the help!

You're always welcome!
Just found a website , good thing for me : play.eslgaming.com
I'm trying to win some cups now xP
Notice it for Hearthstone
Or you can dive in Dota2 anytime you want xD

When I had this kind of problems my answer was Devil May Cry 3 and 4. You'll have no time for thinking!
Comment has been collapsed.
Sounds good, I've never played any of the Devil May Cry but always wanted to! Do you know how intensive the system requirements are at all?
Thanks for the suggestion!
Comment has been collapsed.
No idea about the reboot.
DMC 3 and 4 are not exactly new, so i don't think you'll have any problems running them since your pc runs Bioshock Infinite. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
When I feel stressed out and horrible, I just install something that is mindless and has a lot of explosions, where I don't have time to think about other things. Games like Serious Sam and DOOM work well for this. If you're instead looking for something more long-term to play, that still does not have a lot of downtime, a good RTS would do the job. Dawn of War, Rise of Nations, StarCraft, Command & Conquer (the later ones have less downtime, not played 4 yet, but I've not heard much good about it).
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you for the advice, sounds like a good plan :) I will look into these and hopefully they will have my mind focused on fast-paced gameplay!

Usually, after a breakup you can try the following:
- The Fappening
- 2 Fap 2 Furious
- The Incredible Adventures of Fap Helsing
- Faps of Legends
- Counter Fap : Global Offensive
- Super Fap Brothers
- and last but not least ... Age of Fap III Complete Collection
Srsly now ... get out with your friends, party hard, get yourself lost into the road ahead, and soon you'll meet your better half, get married, have kids and play the Dragon Age series, like i'm doing right now :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha I think my favourite has to be Counter Fap: Global Offensive :P
Thanks for making me laugh and hitting me with some solid advice, I'll try to take it on board and move ahead :)

Best medicine for broken heart is time. And time flows fastest while playing MMORPG. So I would recommend Guild Wars 2 or any other MMORPG of your choice :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you, not much experience with MMORPGs but perhaps it's a good opportunity to get introduced to them!
Comment has been collapsed.
Spec Ops The Line
Suikoden 1 and 2
Wild Arms
Metroid Fusion
DOOM 1 and 2, ideally with the brutal doom mod, and the heavy metal music mod, makes the experience even more brutal
Metal Gear Solid games
and of course, Chrono Trigger
Yes, they're not any of the newer games, but damn are they great
how the fuck could I forget about Dark Souls. You'll get so frustrated and angry you would even forget about your funeral
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you very much for the suggestions. I've played Dark Souls this summer so I'm hoping it has trained me well for when life gets a backstab on you! I've got some great suggestion and may well play some more Dark Souls tonight :D

Heh, go for it >.>
Games are a great distraction from reality, I've always forgot about my problems when I was playing a game that really interested me. Hope these'll help you too

I tried playing Counter-Strike: Source when my gf left me but couldn't concentrate. Anyway, my choice would always be something that requires constant focus. So multiplayer, frantic. I could not imagine story-based games helping.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I know what you mean, if something's not distracting enough I'll likely change it up, thanks for the advice :)

Haha, damn you've seen through my cunning plan! If only there was a site that hosted free giveaways I wouldn't have to go to such low measures!

Will Suggest favorite games which have some humor to them...
Stanley Parable
Deathspank (and sequels)
Saint's Row 3/4
LEGO Games (Star Wars, Marvel, Batman, Lord of the Rings, Hobbit)
Comment has been collapsed.
Stanley Parable is a great suggestion, I've got it but never got around to playing it. Thank you!

You will play once, then twice. Then you will want to see every possible ending.
All just to hear a dude narrating all you do. WORTH IT!!!
Seriously, it's really fun. Too short tho.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm ... what are some interesting games that I have played ... that aren't depressing ... and maybe somewhat cheery (though this last bit won't apply to all of the games).
-Thomas Was Alone
-The Book of Unwritten Tales
-Dishonored
-Dying Light
-Gunpoint
-The Last Tinker: City of Colors
-Mirror's Edge
-Project Temporality
-Remember Me
-Scribblenauts
-Sleeping Dogs
-Zeno Clash
(Length of games vary, the most engrossing games I've played have been rather short, unfortunately.)
EDIT: And if games don't work. You can always try cuddling with one of these:
Comment has been collapsed.
Sounds good, thank you very much for the suggestions :)
Haha, don't worry, I'll try and make it down your list before I resort to the pillow legs!
Comment has been collapsed.
Here's some I forgot as well:
-Terraria/Starbound/Crea/Signs of Life (All similar, but have their differences)
-The Forest
-The Long Dark
-Prison Architect
-NEO Scavenger
-Salt
-Killing Floor
-Cook, Serve, Delicious! (Trust me, you won't have time to think.)
-BioShock
-Serious Sam
-Max Payne
-Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy
And I think that that's about it for the games that I have personally played. Have a few others I suppose, but don't think they would be best for the situation.

A nice competitive game like Rocket League or CSGO could help--both require focus and you can easily forget about the world while playing them.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, I may try some PVP on Dark Souls 2 :) Hoping to pick up Rocket League sometime :)
Thanks for the advice!

Elder Scrolls Online really pulls me in at the moment.
The story/questing is awesome, and the community is ridiculously nice.
(cause all the haters are gone)
Great game to put your mind on something different.
