The Best PC Games (You Should Be Playing)

[Raendor]

I'll weigh in on Horizon Zero Dawn...

The game is so good, I'd spend many hours just watching someone else playing it.

Here's a good 11-hours walk-through:

The game is a boring grindfest with markers and predictable plot.

 

[Draconian]

No MMO's on the list? Perhaps when Shadowlands is released, then World of Warcraft will be added back on this list.

I would say that Rogue Company is one of the best games on PC.

 

[bexwhitt]

I don't like games where the point is to kill stuff so most of this is a bust.

 

[Colonel Blimp]

Really don't get the love for RDR2.
45 quid down the drain, boring as hell.

Each to their own I suppose.

 

[EClyde]

Doom Eternal is some good fun and was not to hard till I had to do the jumps. Can't get past that spot but I ain't mad. Maybe someday a way around will develop

 

[EClyde]

Come on, nobody missed Detroit Become Human in this list?? Yes, it’s not a shooter or RPG, but an amazing game for the choices you have and different outcomes... already finished twice (completely differently), but will go for at least 2 more!

I think it's because of the goofy title. I'm from Detroit and never to go back.

 

[EClyde]

List is barf

my list:

SUPERLIMINAL
CARRION
THE OUTER WORLDS
XCOM: Chimera Squad
HADES

Your list is barf too.

Is the RTS genre completely dead?

Hope so

 

[EClyde]

These lists should include games that were missed by alot of people but virtually everyone who plays them actually adore..

Included are Arkane Studios Dishonored 2 and Prey.

Dishonored 2 was good as was the entire series

 

[Bamda]

I am still loving the game Assassin's Creed Odyssey, I cannot wait to jump to Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

 

[Pastuch]

Warzone, Hades and Xcom Chimera squad should all be on that list. I understand keeping Apex on there but Fortnite! Come on!

 

[Sorileus86]

What about Divinity Original Sin II ? or HomeWorld Remastered *its a classic :O* ? There's also MMO's like FF14, ESO etc, so many other games are better then what you just posted in this article.... :/

 

[mrvco]

I was interested in Valorant when I heard about it, but based on what I've seen on several Twitch live streams, everyone seems to be camped up and corner sniping or spamming grenades, barriers, shields or whatever.

 

[Avro Arrow]

There are so many fantastic game franchises that it's really hard to play them all. I've been gaming a lot more since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic started. The size of my library has gotten so big that it blows my mind. LOL

 

[Zarak84]

It's down to personal taste. I continue to play M & B Warband a lot, mostly online. Other favourites:- Tabletop Simulator, Chaos Reborn, Pictopix, Axis & Allies 1942 Online, Field of Glory II, Ultimate General: Civil War.

 

[ziffel66]

List updated, and still no Hades?? Arguably the best game of 2020.

"Has there ever been a better time to be a gamer? A new PlayStation and Xbox just went out the door, and many of the consoles' new, graphically-intensive titles will be hitting the PC. We've also got new Nvidia RTX Ampere and AMD Radeon 6000 series GPUs"
yes, none of them available so I can play at least Mario Kart on my Nintendo switch

 

[loki1944]

Is the RTS genre completely dead?

No, just the author must be ignorant of the RTS genre (or strategy genre in general); check out Empires Apart and Dawn of Man.

I've played more Far Cry 2 than RDR2; RDR2 has some of themost boring time-wasting padding in a game that I have ever seen.

 

[Fergutor]

"You should be playing"

You should not tell me what to do.

 

[fluffydroid]

List updated, and still no Hades?? Arguably the best game of 2020.

Agreed, they ought to remove Cyberpunk and put Hades at the top of the list. Hades has received goty awards from several different websites.

 

[Grinnie Jax]

Best PC games you should be playing to completely forget about all those mediocre games above:
1) Heroes III
2) Might & Magic VII
3) Warlords Battlecry III
4) NOX
5) TES III

I missed that too. I have just recently tried They Are Billions and it is a really entertaining game. I recommend it to everyone looking for some RTS/Tower defense fun.

I like RTS and tower defense games, added to my wish list. Thx.

When I saw Fortnite, Apex Legends and other so-called "Battle Royale" style teen-fad streaming-addict games, I started taking this list lightly. Most of the games are in this list seem to fall under this category.

But when I saw "The Best PC Games (You Should Be Playing)" and followed by Cyberpunk 2077 below, .......mfff...mff...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..

Seriously though, the only games worthy here, imho, are Gears Tactics, Wasteland 3, Red Dead Redemption 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, MS Flight Simulator and DOOM Eternal. GTA V is a mixed bag actually. Though it is fun to play, many of the buildings and structures are just there for decorations and you can't enter and do anything inside, unless within a scope of a mission and that too only a particular building. Unlike games like Elder Scrolls or RDR2 where if you see a building, home or hut you can enter it. Hence, the GTA V game feels....empty...sometimes.

I guess the author(s) don't play full Strategy, 4X and pure RPG games.
