Currently we are getting a little tired of most of the game we regularly play together and would love something new on xbox that we could enjoy.

Games we have more recently enjoyed together include: Solasta Crown of the Magister Elder Scrolls Online Fallout 76 Dead by Daylight It Takes Two A Way Out Portal 2 Stardew Valley State of Decay 2 Sea of Thieves GTA Online Red Dead Online Minecraft Escape Academy Borderlands series For the King

I know this a pretty big list of massively different games but anything like these games would be great. Preferably anything that isn't very PvP focused. It doesn't have to be Newly released game, just something similar to any of these that isn't here. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Anything Lego. Movie or series you guys enjoyed together? LEGO that shit.

Trust me that shit slaps no matter how hard core of gamers you are.

I second this. I was pleasantly surprised with how much my friend and I enjoyed these games as adults.

She isn't the most Hard Core gamer haha. She is pretty new to gaming. There are a few other games that have been one off single player games we played together through game pass (separately but simultaneously) Like Contrast and The Lake that were less my thing but not bad games by any means.

I've personally played a lot more games Such as Destiny 1&2, the Halo Series, Stellaris, the main Fallout and Elder Scrolls games, Ark and many more. Ive played and loved many various types of games shy of Sports or Racing games. Just can't do those kinds haha

I'm telling you grab lego marvel 1 or lego star wars, play that shit and tell me it isn't fantastic, I dare you.

Haha. I'll bring it up. Her room mate would be ecstatic, she loves lego. Can't quite say lego games have been my thing since I was much younger, but im not against playing them and enjoying them with her

Have you tried The Dark Pictures Anthology? Man of Medan, Little Hope and House of Ashes are all super fun Co-ops. Plus The Devil in Me is coming out Nov 18

We haven't. She is interested, especially because of a friends recommendation, but at the same time she is worried it will be a little too scary for her based on the looks

Ah. Depending on your tolerance to that type of stuff it can be a little scary. It's really worth trying though. I really enjoy the decisions you can make to influence the story. In my opinion it plays out more like a thriller movie than a horror game. It's more anticipation and scenery than cliché jump scares.

GeneraIFlores OP t1_iubmumm wrote

I'm personally not that easily scared, by no means am I immune to jumps ares ot anything like that. Ive played and moderate enjoyed Outlast 1 years ago. Only one part did I say fuck no to and that was when you lose the camera haha. She is much more easily scared and is often on the fence with horror games despite loving scary movies

Ok, well my recommendation stands then. It's more general uneasiness so it should be fine. They are great games that I think you'll both enjoy.

My wife and I have had a great time playing Lovers In A Dangerous Spacetime, Chariot, Diablo 3, and especially Divinity: Original Sin 2. DOS2 is still the best couch co-op game I've ever played, and she's a big fan of the first one.

Weirdly enough, she isn't really into first-person shooters at all, but she actually enjoyed playing through Serious Sam 3 with me as well. I'm not sure which generation of Xbox you're talking about, but I'm fairly certain all of those are available on the Xbox One, at least

Diablo 3 is definitely worth a playthrough with SO. My wife doesn't game at all and we had a blast playing on Xbox back in the day.

Actually we were looking into Divinity the Original Sin 2 because of solasta. Trying to get it cheap for us right now but its definitely on our radar. Have you played Solasta by any chance?

No, I hadn't heard of it before but I'm thinking about checking it out now!

From what I've heard, its one of the most faithful representations of dnd 5e out there and we have had a lot of fun with it!

Destiny 2

Deep Rock Galactic

7 Days to Die

Fable 3, you can get married and have kids

Shredder's revenge

No man's sky

GeneraIFlores OP t1_iues7u1 wrote

No man's sky might be interesting. We already have it because its one I owned from when it came to xbox. Dont think she will want Deep Rock because she does prefer to play as a woman which I understand. And she is installing 7 days to die right now! Will look into fable 3 aswell. Appreciate the suggestions!
