I won’t be able to go on vacation for quite some time, so I’m looking for games that feel like vacation. Games that take place in luxurious hotels or just have the right vibes. The first part of the first Dead Island would be a great example, but also niche games like P.A.M.E.L.A. or Paradise Killer.
I haven’t fired it up in a few years but No Man’s Sky was beautiful even on hellscape planets.
Haven’t played it for years, too. It had this constant sense of futility for me, since there’s no goal and you still constantly need to build things you’ll never see again.
