Fellow posters, after finally getting a job (and being stuck on consoles for 10 years) i've built my PC.

I heard there's a sale coming on steam in two days, and i have a lot of spare cash and i need a backlog of games.

Give me your best PC exclusives or better versions of multiplats.

Already have on my wishlist: Cities: Skylines, Euro Truck Simulator 2, Verdun, Wasteland 2.

Also i recently got Insurgency for 5$.

Youre 10 years too late. They stopped making good PC exclusives. You missed the glory days of the masterrace.

Saving this for later.
I'll be very lucky if the whole series goes on sale.

>>320862651
I like classics, anon.
The last good PC exclusives i played were Caesar 3 and Half Life.

I still need to check Deus Ex though. Luckily there's GoG for this.

Dwarf Fortress is the quintessential PC exclusive.

If you can get into it, it's one of the the best city management games ever conceived.

Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl, and Call of Pripyat.

Natural Selection 2 and Tribes: Ascend (which just got revived with an update) are both really good PC shooters if you're prepared to git gud

Space Pirates and Zombies is a great 2D space combat game with a nice campaign

Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines is pretty much a must-play RPG where you play as a vampire (make sure you get a community patch though)

I have Red Orchestra 2, but it is also pretty dead according to /v/.

What about WaW?

The whole Witcher series first game is really worth it
slow in the beginning though.
Arma 3, Insurgency, Red Orchestra/Rising storm if you are into more realistic shooters and or combined arms
Xcom
System shocks
Deus Ex
Terraria
Metro
Stalker
Pneumbra
Killing floor

There's a lot of people on RO2 thought.

There's always multiple servers full.

>Vermintide
Fucking do it, now.
>Elite Dangerous
Flight stick required for true funsies.
>Heroes of the Storm
If you're looking for a twitch reaction PvP game, this is great with friends. Don't play it alone.
>Starcraft 1 / 2
Great games, the story really gets fucked over by shit writers in 2 but the gameplay is still top notch.
>Ark
Tame dinos, knock bros out and feed them to sharks, build a mobile turret command center on a bronto. Games tons of fun.
>Besiege
Cheap, entertaining, hilarious. Do it.
>Divinity Original Sin
This game is amazing, think it finally got a console port but still worth playing.
>Endless Legend
Great strategy game.
>Skyrim w/ mods
It's an experience.
>Dirt Rally
Best rally sim ever made.
>Ghost in the Shell SAC: First Assault
It's a cowadoody clone for $5 and GITS skins. Good for fans, meh to anyone else.
>Lichdom: Battlemage
More of a tech demo for people with a VR HMD. If you have one or plan to get one, this game looks absolutely stunning with it.
>Sanctum1/2
FPS tower defense, it's actually really addicting to co-op with a friend in this.
>Vanishing of Ethan Carter
Great game, short and sweet. Also absolutely amazing in VR.

These are some of my more recent favorites. It's a great time to be a PCfriend. If you're planning to buy your games, head over to greenmangaming for massive discounts on even new releases.

>>320867725
More like 99, but with more movement options like wall-running and sliding (but still dodge jumps are vital to survive).
>>
>>320868340
>Dirt Rally

OP here, is it playable with an xbox 360 controller?
>>
>>320868668
Every PC game is playable with any game pad. It does have native support though, any game that doesn't you can just download software to make it work very easily.

The dualshock 4 is my pad of choice.
>>
>>320868668

90% of games on PC are playable with any controller out there. The Xbone/360 pads have an advantage of being the standard which means games will have correct button prompt graphics 99.9999% of the time, but you can use anything from an NES controller to a Steam Controller.
>>
>>320869046
>>320869053

I was actually asking if i do stand a chance by using a controller.

Isn't it kinda realistic? I suppose it's quite unplayable without a wheel.
>>
You should try Mark of the Ninja, it's a great 2D stealth game. If you want to play shooters try Insurgency and Red Orchestra 2. Total War games are fun if you enjoy strategy. Also if you are an autist you can try stuff like Europa Universalis or other Paradox games.

659 KB, 956x838
>>320868668

as long as you see that you're good to use a controller (without any tweaking). if it says "partial" support it means that the game might need you to use a keyboard or mouse at some point to do shit like click "start" on a launcher or type in your characters name, but the gameplay itself works fine with a controller
>>
>>320868668
Either find elite dangerous for cheap or just get star citizen since it has actual Newtonian physics and doesn't handle like a plane Sim in space It's an actual space Sim. Elite dangerous has like zero yaw you have to roll then pitch because it's just like a plane.

Half life series
Endless Legend
Civilization
Insurgency (I know you already have it, but you should really play it. Play on a 5v5 or 8v8 firefight server. Big servers can be frustrating)
Legend of Grimrock 1+2
City skylines
CSGO (do not listen to this board, they have no idea what they're talking about)
Deus Ex
Serious Sam series (can skip 2)
Amnesia
Pathalogic
Freedom Planet
The long dark
Risk of Rain
They bleed pixels
E.Y.E Divine Cybermancy
System shock 2
Killing floor
Mount and Blade
Speedrunners

And when you want to get drunk with friends and have a dumb good time tactical intervention

If you never tried before, maybe a MMO.
WoW, FF14 or SWTOR, they are newbies friendly.
Trying a MMO for the first time is always something special.

>Isn't the Arma II mod of DayZ better than the standalone?
not anymore

>Also, what about H1Z1 and Rust? What are their key differences?

H1Z1 is the garbage version of DayZ, Rust is a shit meme game and avg player is a 9 year old minecraft fan

>>320859581
Warm memo that DayZ is probably still ludicrously unfinished.

Battlefront II
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Terraria
Gothic 2
Bully
Ass Creed: Black Flag
Victor Vran
Exanima
Space Engineers
Insurgency
Hurtworld
AoE II

Try out a moba if you have friends that play them

If you like zombie survival simulation get 7 Days to Die or try out No More Room in Hell if you want a hard ass zombie game

Try out Trackmania if you like racing

Insurgency, CS:GO, Verdun, or Red Orchestra 2 if you like shooters

Obviously Age of Empires 2 HD or Age of Mythology HD if you like rts games

Warframe if you like grindy stylized shooters

Risk of Rain and Dungeon of the Endless if you like platformers/dungeon games

Space Engineers or Interstellar Rift if you like space

Rocket League is pretty cool if you like cars and soccer

Garrys mod is a classic if you like fucking with people online

Battlefield 4 is pretty decent on PC

Explore some MMOs, I can't really reccomend any, I was in the Division alpha recently and I got into the Beta too, that game was pretty good, obviously will run the best on PC
>>
>>320872316
I used to play Tales of Pirates back in 2007.
Fun times. I'm not sure if the game still has it's servers up though.

Isn't the genre a shadow of what it used to be?

H1Z1 has battle royale.

>>320872376
Yet, it still probably runs like absolute garbo.

>>320872569
it's more theme parks than real MMORPGs now, but if you're ok with that it's fun with friends
