But Home PC games are it seems unknown territory The PC gaming hobby is much more of a niche than most of us think it is and when you look at flight sims in particular it's a niche of a niche.

Three that I definitely want:
Stalker 2
System Shock Remake
Kerbal Space Program 2
I have a huge list so that is only a tiny sample.
Starfield I am cautiously optimistic of, but my expectations are very low.

No GTA that I can see. There is a typing RPG though, so I am interested in checking out. Might be good to use to encourage my children to learn to type, but I will check it out first.

Rockstar stuff is on sale on Steam right now though. Maybe the leaker got it wrong.

You must be joking Panzer! I have about 200+ in my Epic account. I only have Death Stranding and a Star Wars game installed and I doubt I'll ever play the latter again

One does not simply play all their old, free games, games they would never have bought in the first place. It is a barren wasteland... not with 10,000 gamers could you do this.

Most games I try I grow bored with very quickly. Occasionally I'll find a gem, though, that grabs me good. The more complicated and emergent the gameplay systems are, the better.

Most games I try I grow bored with very quickly. . It's rare that I play a game that fails to grab me but that's exactly what happened to me with Steel Division II. I can't quite put my finger on it but I found the gameplay to be uninspiring. I may give it a shot again later on to see if my impressions change.
