It’s happened to all of us - usually after we’ve played a game that we’ve really loved - an extended period of time where you just can’t get into a game. You get an hour into a few games but just can’t click with anything.
What was the game (or games) that brought you out of that slump?

The Legend of Zelda Links Awakening remake. What an odd little gem
Days Gone is my go-to: immersive open world, intense survival, emotional storyline. Motorcycle rides, zombie hordes – it’s adrenaline and heart, all in one game."
Sadly Days Gone 2 doesn’t seem to be the next project at Bend Studio. Maybe they will surprise us with something similar but even better?
The Talos Principle 2. I completed it 4 days after it was released and now I started playing the first from the beginning
Remnant from the ashes.
Thought I hated sous like rogue lites.
It’s amazing.
Darkest dungeon was a game that got me playing hours a day again.
Once finished I got back in the slumber
There’s an ending to that game?
Mass Effect Legendary Edition
After a few years of quitting gaming, the first one to hook me up again was Divinity Original Sin 2 in coop with my gf of the time. Couldn’t stop thinking about it and pushing us to spend every free minute on it…
GTA online. PC wink wink. I know XD. That thing made me feel like a 10 year old again. I could live in this world forever.
Elden Ring for sure. I thought gaming was just something I grew out of, or the industry changed in a way that didn’t interest me. I’d still play some online shooters with friends from time-to-time, but didn’t consider it a “hobby” anymore. ER sucked me right back in, and then this year BG3 did the same. Gaming is better than it’s ever been, there’s just more and more of it so logically there’s gonna be some stinkers and shameless cash-grabs.
As others have said, Hades. I thought it would be totally the opposite of what I would enjoy. I was completely wrong.
Dead Cells 👍 game claps
Radical red saved my life. I was on medical leave from work and was just financially broke and had no car I paced around my apartment in mental agony and would compare it to being locked in a closet. Radical red helped me focus on something and just escape my terrible reality until my life could return to normal.
Vampire survivors did it for me. I was about over gaming for a while and found the “sumole to play, hard to master” game play spoon addictive.
