I recently booted up Half-Life 2 to replay it. I have played the absolute shit out of this game before, so 60% of it just feels like a drag to me now. It was such an amazing game but it's sort of spoiled for me after I've played it too much.

I also discovered ULTRAKILL a few months ago. I feel like I could play that game forever. It has tons of content, weapon combinations and higher difficulties with different enemy behaviour.

Do any of you have more game suggestions like Ultrakill? A really replayable singleplayer game.

!!BTW I don't mean online multiplayer games or games similar to candy crush!!

My top ones I constantly replay are Factorio, rimworld and modded Minecraft java version, mainly because there's a incredible amount of mods For all of them, make themed runs for each one. Sometimes action adventure sometimes just pure automation.

Nearly 8k in Factorio and probably Minecraft, not as much in rimworld but only because I bought it about a year ago

I'm seeing Rimworld and Factorio in a lot of the comments here. I have played Factorio already, great game. Guess I'll try Rimworld now.

I'm a huge fan of Rimworld! Very excited to hear you're giving it a try. It really can become whatever you want. There is an abundance of Quality of Life mods too. I definitely have recommendations if you'd like.

I would tatoo modded Minecraft on my body, I love it so much

so I looked into modded minecraft via curse.... seems awfully clunky - and so many mods are really compilations of others.... can you recommend top few mods?

The only one that seems interesting from a player perspective is trees falling when cut.

There’s a few different styles of experiences:

The Aether

Adds a dimension in the sky with its own progression of ores, and a system of a progression of dungeons. Lots of new enemies. It has a kinda similar progression to playing vanilla survival minecraft, but it’s harder and the things you have to worry about are very different.

It’s one of the most polished mods out there and is intended for a standalone experience.

Mine & Slash this is a big modpack intended to change the game into a more combat oriented and fantasy themed game.

There are some that are designed to make the progression be a system of automating resource production, similar to games like Factorio or Satisfactory. Create is an example.

Ones like Blightfall are a complete curated experience with a story, a custom map, and a modpack.

Yeah what the other guy said, modpacks and give FTB academy a start. Generally the mods add a shitload of new content (like lots more ores). Better automation and electricity is, imo, the best stuff added, and there's tons of that. I find the magic and adventure mods don't quite work as well. My biggest tip for modded mc is: Spread out! Make big ass bases and rooms, you'll love the space.

After that it's your call what's next. A kitchen sink pack is one that sorta rams in a ton of mods with no theme and it's fun! FTB infinity was a lot of fun, or FTB Ultimate re whatever too.

There's StoneBlock which is the opposite of Skyblock which was a different style

Create: Above and Beyond is my favorite. It is hard though and requires that you understand the Create mod.

By the way you'll find that Create is the best mod. It's really fucking well done and no other mod really comes close in quality. Gears and belts!

Anyways here's some old creations of mine:

Storage room (before I got the ME computer block) https://imgur.com/gallery/U0qhf

Create wheat farm in the snow https://imgur.com/gallery/x71winR

This last pack I played was all about big multi block structures to process ore, so it became a sprawling base https://imgur.com/gallery/873rZT5
