PC gaming is having its golden era right now. New titles are dropping up like candy and previous titles have provided us with stunning gameplay and gripping stories. If you want a good gaming experience, you not only have to get yourself a good PC to do it, but you also need to play the following eight titles. These are the eight PC games you can’t miss out on or you’d be missing out on an adventure of a lifetime.
#1: Dark Souls 3
Hardcore fans will tell you Dark Souls 3 is not as hard to play as the two earlier games in the franchise. However, you’ll still end up spending a lot of time defeating the bosses and mobs. Not to mention, the game looks absolutely stunning and it has one of the best gaming soundtracks of all time.
The game is a fighting game that makes you want to scream at the screen. You’ll need to defeat enemies and develop your skills by collecting souls. There’s plenty of exploration and a few tricky situations to deal with. It’s almost as addictive as Flappy Bird was on the smartphone!
#2:BioShock
If you are looking for an interesting story with a few scares here and there, you might want to play the BioShock franchise. It’s based on the concepts of Ayan Rand’s Atlas Shrugged and you’ll be discovering a city that has no government regulation – a paradise for entrepreneurs and artists. Well, until you find out that things probably didn’t go as planned. The game is beautifully made, the gameplay is fun and it will have enough horror to keep you on the edge of your seat.
#3: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Do you like good combat? How about beautiful scenery and huge environments? If you like all that and good storytelling and music, you need to get your hands on The Witcher 3 – right now. The game is an epic adventure game with enthralling plot and great combat. Just be advices – the game will take a big chunk of your life, as you just can’t stop playing it.
#4: Cities: Skylines
Building and managing games are oddly soothing. If you’re a fan of creating things and you played SimCity in the past, you need to get your hands on Cities: Skylines. The game is the best city building game out there by a mile and there are so many things you can do in the game. It allows you to manage anything from the economy to land planning – you can create your own Venice or build a San Francisco styled hillside city.
#5: Doom
The Doom franchise has been around for a long time and you should play all the games. But the latest edition in the franchise naturally looks the best. It’s also super fun. Now, the game is a gory game with plenty of shooting action. Newer fans might find the multiplayer option more appealing and it is a rather fun way to get together with friends. It’s bloody but so satisfying – no need to think too hard; just go and shoot.
#6:Overwatch
Blizzard is rather masterful at making fun games and you could easily include a number of their titles in lists like this. But if you like shooters, you want to play with friends and you are looking for a balance between competitive gameplay and fun, Overwatch is the game for you. The game looks good and it will be something fun and relatively easy to get into at any point.
#7: The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim
Skyrim continues to be one of the most popular games in the world. Much of the success of the game does belong to stunning storytelling and a great soundtrack. However, the continued popularity of the game rests almost solely on the shoulders of the mods. If using mods isn’t your thing, you might want to skip the game. However, if you want over 100 hours of gameplay and tons of adventure, you should try the game. Just try not to get an arrow in the knee.
#8: Grand Theft Auto V
Another controversial game, but definitely one you want to play. It has actually been one of the fastest and most selling console ports on the PC. The game has stunning graphics, plenty of fun things to do and a storyline that’s rather touching. You also have many mods to make the journey better after all – you can create your own stunts or just rob a bank with friends. Anything is possible in Grand Theft Auto V.
The good news is that you don’t have to pay yourself sick to play the above games. Online sites such as Amazon UK have special voucher codes that make it easier to enjoy multiple PC games without paying extra.
So, pick your favourite titles from the above eight – or play them all – and fall in love with PC gaming for good.
