Well OW2 and Vicky 3 already exist and CS2 is playable for some people. A great time for you.
Jokes aside, maybe check the current sales and see what interests you.
Can’t believe they canceled PVE for OW2! 😢
I can't really reccomend Vic III, if he enjoys Vic II, Vic III is a radically different game than that. He would probably want to do a lot of looking into it to see if he likes where the third game took the series.
I followed the dev diary for the first few months and it seems like a huge shift from what I was reading. I haven’t watched gameplay of it though, did it have a good release or are we waiting for dlc?
The general consensus I think is that the release was horrible, and the game is... alright, not great, not horrible. The first DLC, Voices of the People, has HORRIBLE reviews with only 26% positive on Steam tho, people are upset that instead of inproving the game itself, they added flavor for a single country instead. The popular theory is that they did this so they could give all the people who preordered the first couple DLCs crappy DLC just to fulfill that promise, and have the actual important DLC later so they have to pay for it.
I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, as this is very much not my experience. The game definitely has rough edges, but I found it fun and did a couple full playthroughs before setting it down. And the first expansion is always a flavor pack. It said this in the preorder, it's been that way since CK2, it's what they said would happen in the dev diaries. I can't say it's one of their better flavor packs, but this whole conspiracy theory take is strange to me.
Could the game be in a better state: yes. Should they have pushed back the flavor pack for more QoL free patches: yes. Is it a shitty game: No
Are you looking for one specific genre or are you in the "new PC, give me shiny games" phase? Because I have different recommendations based on what you're feeling like at the moment
New PC, give me shiny games and maybe some niche RTS management game's you’re a fan of.
Ok I’ll ask, how did you lose your PC post breakup?
Nothing crazy, it was ours, bought under a shared budget while living together, and the PC was one of the stuff he wanted to leave with. Sucks but stuff has to be divvied up, each person has to lose out on some stuff in order for it to be fair.
RimWorld
If you're looking for another team based shooter, "Deceive Inc." looks decent and has good reviews. Never played it myself though, not really my genre.
I haven't played it myself but a bunch of my friends speak very highly of it and the creative ways you can figure out which npcs are actually players.
Death's Door
if you haven’t played it and don’t hate Battle Royale games, Apex Legends is really fun imo. Has a bit of a steep learning curve, but I have fun with it even if I’m bad
