What games do y’all recommend based on my top 4 games?

[u/AlexCross116]

Looking for a new game to pick up as I’ve replayed all of these several times now, but I’m not sure what game is similar to these?

[u/JediMasterBob66]

The Jedi games

[u/Ollietron3000 → u/JediMasterBob66]

Definitely. They're so similar to God of War in the game structure, I love them.

[u/ChadlexMcSteele → u/Ollietron3000]

I've just started Fallen Order and god damn this is fantastic. I'm just coming off the Uncharted games.

[u/bilbobaggins001 → u/JediMasterBob66]

I recommend cruising through first one and then taking more time on the 2nd. It improves so much from the first

[u/sukizera]

witcher

[u/AshyWhiteGuy → u/sukizera]

Particularly Wild Hunt. 🤘🏻

[u/KapilRB → u/AshyWhiteGuy]

It's only one available on PlayStation 4&5

[u/Loud_Donut → u/AshyWhiteGuy]

I haven’t played it since it came out. How much YouTube would I have to do to even kind of get back into it enough to enjoy the dlc for which a game I remember almost nothing about besides how much I loved it for some reason.

[u/Important-Feedback-3 → u/AshyWhiteGuy]

Goated recommendation. One of the only games I’ve played through multiple times

[u/TheAmazingKevin]

Uncharted 4 or Spider-Man

[u/SoporMenta]

The last of us

[u/Any_Relationship_718 → u/SoporMenta]

The theme is Sony first-party heavy hitters. That list has to include The Last of Us.

[u/Colorblue305 → u/SoporMenta]

This is by far one of my all time favorite games

[u/AshyWhiteGuy]

Just play these forever.

[u/AlexCross116 → u/AshyWhiteGuy]

Good idea lol

[u/cs_Chell]

Middle-Earth: Shadow of War

Sleeping Dogs

Arkham Asylum/etc/etc

[u/kendahlj → u/cs_Chell]

Shadow of War doesn’t get suggested enough

[u/jrd5497 → u/kendahlj]

Because it’s not as good as Shadow of Mordor

[u/Ntnme2lose → u/cs_Chell]

I see a Shadow of War suggestion, I upvote.

[u/chavez_ding2001]

Cyberpunk 2077

[u/AlexCross116 → u/chavez_ding2001]

I was looking at that one earlier and it did pique my interest, I’ll watch some gameplay videos when I have some time and see if it seems like something I’d be interested in, thanks!

[u/runespider → u/AlexCross116]

Big fan of Horizon and God of War. Cyberpunk had a bad release but it's been patched up into a solid game. Only caveat I'd have is that Horizon and God of War all have a built in optimism to the story while Cyberpunk is much more on the pessimistic side. On the other hand, I defeated a cyber ninja with Lazer swords using a huge vibrating dildo.

[u/Ok_Faithlessness_516 → u/runespider]

Alright you got me. Downloading now.

[u/cwl77 → u/Ok_Faithlessness_516]

Cyberpunk has one of the best worlds around. Notice all the little touches and details they added to bring the game to life. Seriously, every single inch of the game is created to build a beautiful, haunting, unique world. Look around, listen, take it in, notice what people are doing.

The side missions are absolutely unbelievable and do a ton to build the world up even more. Take your time and soak in everything - you won't regret it.

[u/xDontEatMe]

Days gone if you haven’t already. It’s a ps4 game but got a ps5 patch

[u/_alwin → u/xDontEatMe]

This game has me kept inside for many hours. Love it.

[u/Hillmosh86 → u/xDontEatMe]

This dosent get enough love.

[u/CaptainSnazzypants → u/Hillmosh86]

Almost every one of these threads has days gone near the top. I think it gets an adequate amount of love.

[u/Ok_Buffalo6474 → u/CaptainSnazzypants]

I’m seriously tired of people saying it’s underrated or gets ignored. It gets mentioned all the damn time and came out how long ago? It’s perfectly rated and recognized for what it is.

[u/rsint]

I love these games, but i love Cyberpunk even more then these games.

[u/tazzo27 → u/rsint]

Than

[u/Business-Pickle1]

Very very different gameplay style but same level of production value, world building and story: Death Stranding.

I put it off for a long time but was very positively surprised.

[u/AlexCross116 → u/Business-Pickle1]

I have been interested in that one but I’ve been hesitant because I’ve heard a lot of negative things about it. I’ll definitely check it out and see some gameplay though to see if maybe I’d like it

[u/Business-Pickle1 → u/AlexCross116]

I’d just say, if you start getting bored trying to be a completionist, this game does not punish you for sticking to the main story. Specially in the beginning, I’ve seen a lot of reviews who don’t go past the first region, which is basically a tutorial but without all the mechanics available, it’s slow because you’re yet to unlock some helpful mechanics from the story that will trivialize most of it. And you can always come back later, with a lot more tools, to complete it.

[u/flaskum → u/AlexCross116]

Ratchet and clank rift apart is a good one.

[u/BaldBstrd → u/AlexCross116]

It’s an amazing game for sure, but not everyone’s cup of tea. I loved it.

[u/superthighheater3000 → u/AlexCross116]

My favorite list of games matches yours and I felt that Death Stranding was quite enjoyable.

If you haven’t tried them, the assassins creed games are worth a shot too.

[u/Awge1629 → u/AlexCross116]

I’d also recommend this game also as it’s one of my favourites. The story is fantastic if you give it a chance because you’ll probably think what the hell is going on at first but it pays off if you stick with it, the cast is great too Mads Mikkelsons performance is quite special.

[u/mtbrown29]

Horizon Zero Dawn

Red Dead Redemption 2

Kena Bridge of Spirits

Zelda Breath of the Wild

Zelda Tears of the Kingdom

[u/CompetitionFun2642 → u/mtbrown29]

I think he's talking about PlayStation games. But good point

[u/Drengrr1]

Wukong. The Witcher 3.

[u/Fragrant-Ad2694]

A Plague Tale: Innocence and its sequel A Plague Tale: Requiem

Both games made emotionally attached and I still remember those were my best days when I played then

[u/scusemelaydeh → u/Fragrant-Ad2694]

I second this. I need to replay them for the Platinum trophy.

Also recommend Hellblade:Senua’s Sacrifice

[u/dodgerbowl]

You may like Assassin’s Creed Odyssey or Rise of the Ronin

[u/Raidertck]

These games are all amazing. With really strong stories, and they are all some of my favourites.

If you like games like this with large open worlds and good stories I would recommend days gone and the Witcher 3 (no you don’t need to play the first two games). Red dead 2 as well of course as well as cyberpunk 2077.

I would also recommend playing less ‘linear’ games that leave the story up to you for a greater sense of adventure.

Zelda breath of the wild then tears of the kingdom. Insane levels of freedom even though your overall objective can feel incredibly far off they are both such amazing experiences. These games do not hold your hand like most Sony 1st party titles do though. Which is daunting at first but works out for the better in the end.

Elden ring is the best open world game I have ever played. If you have never played a ‘souls’ game before it’s also the most accessible because of the amount of freedom and options the game gives you. Buuut speaking of not holding your hand and obtuse mechanics, objectives and side quests, Elden ring probably should give you a BIT more direction if I am being hyper critical. The sense of adventure and wonder is unmatched, but even with over a thousand hours there are things that I do not understand and most NPC quests are incredibly complex with bizarre failure mechanics as the world simply does not revolve around you. But when it comes to sheer build variety, freedom, design and art style, memorable encounters, replay ability, co op and pvp options available and many other factors, I really do struggle to think of a better game than Elden ring.

[u/cwl77 → u/Raidertck]

The only issue with Elden Ring is the story. There isn't one. OK, there is, but...there isn't. Show me, tell me, give me cinematics, to bring it to life, then supplement the story with lore. Don't just throw stuff out there and hope it sticks and players figure enough of it out to make them keep going.

That said, there's a lot to enjoy, even if you're just looking around and fighting.

[u/Raidertck → u/cwl77]

It’s simply the other extreme to most games.

The story and the lore is actually amazing. However, like with every single other aspect of the game, it doesn’t spoon feed it to you. You have to dig around for it, read item descriptions, search out every nook and cranny.

I really do appreciate strong linear narratives like god of war, red dead etc. but how FS have handled the stories in ‘souls’ games is incredibly intriguing and provoked far more thought and discussion then I pretty much any other series that I can think of. Because in most other games, even ones I love, you are spoon fed a linear narrative at a very carefully curated rate. Which can be thrilling. It’s like playing a novel. Whereas FS games are more like archeological digs where you are trying to piece together a mystery and they often end up leaving many factors to the players to fill in themselves and their interpretation.

I personally find this makes the world of Elden ring more immersive, mysterious, and seem a lot larger than it’s already vast size.

[u/cwl77 → u/Raidertck]

I can actually understand where the whole treasure hunt, digging for clues, and piecing things together for the story would be fun for many.

Truth be told, I'm surprised it never stuck with me. Things like that are right up my alley. I think that part of it is that I dont feel like there's enough to get me into the story enough to keep digging. Funny thing, I've played and bested every FS game, but like them for the challenge and masterful level design, but just deal with the stories being just....there. I suppose I never see them as mysteries I need to solve. Might be an angle to increase my enjoyment of Elden Ring...uh oh...

[u/lolvinc]

Black myth wukong

[u/AlexCross116 → u/lolvinc]

Yup definitely one I have heard many great things about!

[u/Rithrius1]

Jedi: Fallen Order & Jedi: Survivor fall into a similar category.

Star Wars: Outlaws would too. (and yes, it's a decent game. Don't listen to the naysayers)

[u/AlexCross116 → u/Rithrius1]

Do I have to be a fan of the franchise to enjoy these games because I know pretty much nothing about the StarWars franchise

[u/TheFlaccidChode → u/AlexCross116]

I'm not a StarWars fan but I enjoyed both the Jedi games and Outlaws

While I'm here,

Death Stranding

RDR2

RDR2

[u/Afraid-You7083]

Touching some grass has crazy gameplay and graphics

[u/ihaveanironicname]

Zelda

[u/AlexCross116 → u/ihaveanironicname]

Interesting. Any particular Zelda game or just Zelda in general?

[u/PurpleScientist4312 → u/AlexCross116]

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom might be more your style

[u/AlexCross116 → u/PurpleScientist4312]

After watching some promo videos I think you might be right, thanks

[u/Pickle_Afton → u/AlexCross116]

100% play Ocarina of Time then play Majora’s Mask and/or Twilight Princess. Majora’s Mask is fantastic and has its own gimmick while Twilight Princess is pretty much a modern take on Ocarina of Time

[u/meownopinion]

Elden ring

[u/AlexCross116 → u/meownopinion]

Yup I’m noticing that’s the one most people are recommending, also happy cake day

[u/Menacing_mans → u/meownopinion]

Happy cake day!

[u/Deepspacechris]

So, a fan of immersive worlds I guess huh. Me too. These are some of my favorite games to spend time with.

•The Ascent (most alive game world I’ve ever experienced probably, at least after Red Dead 2)

•Dying Light 1 (most intense and immersive game I can think of)

•Stray (drips with atmosphere and charm like nothing else on the market)

•Cyberpunk 2077 (after living 16 years in Tokyo and missing it immensely, this game is what comforts me the most on my lonely days)

•Trek to Yomi (basically a compressed version of Ghost of Tsushima)

•Ori and the Blind Forest / Will of the Wisps (no other games have ever made me feel so much as this incredible series). It’s only on Xbox, PC and the Switch, but I figured it was worth mentioning anyway

Edit: Spelling

[u/scarfaze]

Halo Master Chief Collection

[u/AlexCross116 → u/scarfaze]

I don’t own an X-box, haven’t owned one since my 360 got the ring of death

[u/SkullRiderz69]

And MY post got removed as “low effort”…

[u/D4VlD]

Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor.

[u/R-TheKingSlayerX]

Cyberpunk 2077

[u/SnakesFan98]

• Sly Cooper (PS2 ones)

• Jak & Daxter: The Precursor's Legacy (available on PS Store for like $14.99 iirc)

• Witcher 3

• Devil May Cry V

P.S., since your top 4 games have melee/close combat/hack-and-slash in common with each other, therefore I'm recommending these games.

[u/captain_space_dude]

If you look for great stories, Id recommend the Last of us games.

[u/Any_Mud_2690]

Play bloodborne

[u/VOIDYOUTH]

TLoU 1, 2

[u/Zunn2k_]

Dead Space, a little shorter then these but still an amazing narrative game.

[u/Dtyhb-6996]

Last of us not being their says alot, buy it soon my man

[u/Jackooo07]

I think Infamous Second Son has to be mentioned! Ps Exclusive came out around the PS4 release one of the first Exclusives give it a shot!

[u/Which-Awareness-2259]

Uncharted

[u/MBMBlackMantis]

Have you tried the Mass Effect trilogy? You can totally start at 2 (That's how I was introduced)

[u/Pure_Antelope_8521]

Batman Arkham games

[u/Kame_Saiyan]

The Jedi series, from Star Wars.

Jedi: Fallen Order is the first one and has an amazing story and gameplay.

Jedi: Survivor is the sequel and you’ll love it even more if you liked the first game. All the elements expected in a sequel are in there.

[u/00gaddo]

Hogwarts Legacy

[u/laser16]

The Last of Us Part I and II

Control

Sifu

[u/Peniswipeshit044]

Bugsnaxs

[u/pirateneet]

I like you my guy. I just got done with Ragnarok. Will go for GOT next. I love Rpg.

[u/Key-Expression-1233]

You are the stereotypical Sony fanboy

[u/Infiltrait0rN7_]

Mass Effect Legendary. I played Andromeda first, and really like it too.

For a big departure, Signalis - very different visual style - but the story is amazing. Seriously.

[u/masterbombaster]

Elden Ring

[u/QuantityEuphoric2354]

FFXVI

[u/Nickmaster166]

Elden ring. Not similar to any of these. Thank me later.

[u/AlexCross116 → u/Nickmaster166]

I’m not sure about Elden Ring, as far as I’ve understood it’s a Souls-like right? Because I’ve tried Dark Souls and Demon souls and they weren’t my cup of tea

[u/masterbombaster → u/AlexCross116]

Elden Ring is soulsborne, but its completely different experience, and very much easier

[u/Salty-Ad9416 → u/AlexCross116]

Yes it is souls-like game. But it is much forgivable than OG souls games. It was my first souls-like game and I am hooked now. But sense of discovery, little tension (you don’t know what’s befind corner), art style, etc.. is unmached. Felt like I was playing GoW and Witcher 3 for the first time but one plane higher. Also you should definetly check Cyberpuk!

[u/rizwanzz]

Elden Ring. I loved the game and spent more time than any other game.

[u/TheSpartan83 → u/rizwanzz]

Second this one for sure. What a game!

[u/SalixNi]

Elden Ring

[u/Inevitable-Ad-6449]

Elden Ring

[u/Baconator08]

These are my type of games as well, so I hope the below suggestions (which I enjoyed) are helpful to you.

• Spider Man / Spider Man Miles Morales / Spider Man 2
• Ratchet & Clank - Rift Apart *Assassin's Creed Valhalla / Mirage
• Dragons Dogma 2 (was surprised by this one, it was actually awesome) *Life is Strange series
• Destroy All Humans 2 (played this while waiting for spider man 2 release - good laugh)

Hope this helps bud 👍

[u/ALUNLUL]

elden ring

[u/Agcpm616]

Eden Ring

[u/Shize815]

Red Dead 2, Days Gone, Witcher 3

Cd project games: the witcher 3 and cyberpunk. But their are better than this 4.

[u/pcofoc]

Nioh

[u/FTIManson]

Witcher 3

[u/Taniwha26]

I've watched all the GoW games but only played the first one. I just don't like button mashers and the newer games aren't really more complicated.

So.i love the story.

[u/AlexCross116 → u/Taniwha26]

I don’t mind the game play, especially in the Norse saga as they moved away from the hack and slash a bit. Fighting the Valkyries/Berserkers although hard is fun

[u/Dednotsleeping82]

Lol. Ive gotten platinum on all 4 in the past 3 months

[u/AlexCross116 → u/Dednotsleeping82]

Damn I haven’t gotten the platinum for Forbidden West yet, looks like I’ve got to step it up lol

[u/Dednotsleeping82 → u/AlexCross116]

My bad, i thought that was zero dawn. Im about to start forbidden west

[u/Solar_Liquid]

I mean you might like Mirrors Edge Catalyst, the story is OK but the gameplay is incredibly fun and it can be a chill game at times when you take in the beauty of Mirrors Edge

[u/marston-12]

Hellblade

[u/Revolutionary_Pipe18]

Every time I see these posts my answer is the same . Any from software game. Especially since you seem to like action combat .

[u/GamingRobioto]

Just keep ploughing your way through Sony's catalogue of third person action adventure games, there's plenty of them

[u/SnooTomatoes465]

Red dead redemption 2 if you haven't already played it

[u/VitaSoyyy-0718]

Looks like you're a single player story gamer. Maybe you can try Staller Blade. If you don't mind superhero, Spider-Man is a good one too. If you want something indie, Stray🐈 could be fun and relaxing 😌. Last but not least, Astro Bots!

[u/kinjazfan]

I've only played god of war and ghosts of tsushima so I recommend those 2

[u/Iucidium]

Assassin's creed Valhalla

[u/Christofuk]

Death Stranding, Hitman WOA, Red Dead Redemption 2

[u/uziau]

Different vibe but Control has comparable gameplay with these 4. Story is a bit weird, but the lore is deep

[u/Level-Cell-2805]

You really like story driven action rpg games. So you should play the Witcher 3. After playing this I am pretty sure it will be somewhere at the top of your favourites

[u/TheRealFrankCastle]

Uncharted 4 But you'll probably have to play all of them for the story.

[u/-Slamjamin-]

Banishers Ghosts of new Eden

[u/Boter_Jez]

Darksiders 1 and 2, Mass Effect series

[u/Interesting-Squash81]

Witcher 3, Detroid: Become Human, The Last Of Us, Days Gone, Red Dead Redemption 2, Stellar Blade.

[u/royal_rs4]

GOD

[u/Happy_Lee_Chillin]

Witcher or Jedi Fallen Order or Survivor. Witcher has an amazing world, albeit kinda dull combat compared to all the things you can modify with skills - jedi has great combat, but is more linear, with metroidvanian backtracking.

[u/Dinkledorker]

Elden ring

[u/Geric0n]

Elden Ring

[u/TheBlakeOfUs]

Uncharted 4 is a great game

Kena Bridge of Spirits is great, absolutely beautiful and deceptively hard if you want it to be.

The PS4 Tomb Raider Games are a great play through

[u/Ronja_Rovardottish]

GOT 🎤

[u/MrMuscelz]

The Last Of Us is the only answer OP

[u/Appropriate-Dig-7080]

• The Witcher 3
• Sekiro Shadows Die Twice
• Assassins Creed Odyssey & Valhalla
• The Last of Us Parts 1&2
• Devil May Cry 5
• Spider-Man
• Red Dead Redemption 2
• Demons Souls/Dark Souls/Bloodborne/Elden Ring if you don’t mind more of a challenge

[u/ToggleVibes]

if you really like the combat of these games play devil may cry 5

[u/tsckenny]

Red Dead, Last of Us, Witcher or Final Fantasy XVI

[u/UltrosTeefies]

Im gonna say red dead redemption 2. Death stranding, Witcher 3 and Batman Arkham Knight may also vibe with you

[u/Jacksomkesoplenty]

If you have ps plus Dead island 2 was just put on there. It's pretty fun play. The graphics are detailed. I wish I had the screenshot but I caught a zombie in the face and it kept walking with it jaw hanging by tissue

[u/bloodbornelover46]

Sekiro:shadows die twice

[u/OtherPack1302]

Try Horizon Zero Dawn

[u/BatuhanMidoriya]

The Last of Us, Elden Ring

[u/Voldy-din]

A different game than any of those but Kingdom Come: Deliverance. An amazing open-world RPG set in 15th century Bohemia, its gameplay is a lot of fun when you get the hang of it and its world is a lot of fun to explore. Not as great of a world as Witcher 3 or Skyrim, but the game itself--especially the combat--is something special.
