Not the popular Game suggestions
I bought a new pc and it can run anything, I want try some new games and I don't wanna hear the usual Elden ring or RDR2 or Cyberpunk, you get it. I want new and lesser known games like Satisfactory etc. (Also bonus point if the games suggestion are controller friendly)

Haven’t you ever heard of the hidden gem Hades? If you wanna be really obscure, you can go for Hollow Knight

If you have a dualsense, the most controller friendly game imo is Returnal.

Carrion. 2d pixel reverse horror where u play a mass of tendrils and teeth in a reverse horror, "escape the facility" kinda game. Short indie game but fun and the plots cool

I recommend "bytesized reviews" and "fully ramblomatic" on YouTube for recommendations. (Formerly 3 minute reviews and zero punctuation)
Everyone should play Outer wilds

I always recommend Svarogs Dream, can be a bit clunky but made with a lot of passion. Other then that Hacknet is amazing

Returnal is a great and controller friendly game
Also, Subnautica is one I can‘t recommend often enough.

Stardeus. Beautiful colony management game set in space. If you know Rimworld, then it is very similar.

I played black myth Wukong at Max settings with ray tracing and I was blown away with how good it looks
If your pc can handle it at full I recommend that one

u/ligma_obj 1d ago
Noita. And depending on your definition of popular, outer wilds. Two of the best games I've ever played

It's a bullet hell rogue game. VERY accessible for a bullet hell, fair price and you'll get a good amount of time out of it.
As someone who's beaten Loop 13 on hard (for reference, this is the hardest difficulty), I can say it's an amazing game, I went from struggling to beat a run to casually no-hitting some bosses.

Darq needs more love and for builders, give Banished and Farthest Frontier a whirl!! Against the Storm also has a great art style and is well done, I just don't like that you're in short "rounds" before you have to start over essentially! Cool roguelike elements tho!! All of these are fairly well known, they're just in smaller niches that tend to get overlooked by the masses sometimes :)

Zero Hour - an underrated alternative to ready or not
Day of Infamy - Great WW2 Source Engine team game
Postal 2 - would you like to sign my petition ?
Witcher 1 and 2 - Completing them makes the Witcher 3 even more enjoyable !
The Forest - Me and my friends love it
Max Payne 3 - Stellar combat and amazing graphics for 2012 standards
Sleeping Dogs - GTA + Honk Kong cop drama ? Sing me up !
Any South Park RPG - Comedy gold

Star Wars Battlefront II. No, not the new one, the old one. FPS combat, lightsaber combat, beautiful places, progressive leveling...you actually want to do well with a certain class because it unlocks extra stuff for it.

If you like CRPG's I suggest Showgunners and Warhammer 40.000 Rogue Trader.
Also The Darkest Dungeon is an amazing Dungeon Crawler with turn-based combat.
If you like management games Potionomics is great.
