Starting to get a little bored with Skyrim and Left 4 Dead 2.... what are some good games for PC?

What is a good RPG? (Please don't recommend Witcher 3 because I thought the first two were just ok)

What is a good shooter? I play a lot of Left 4 Dead 2- got Evolve, but the community was dead and my game kept crashing so I returned it.

Rainbow Six Siege is a pretty good shooter.

If you like Left 4 Dead, you might like Killing Floor 1/2, Red Orchestra 2 if you're into gritty realistic WWII shooters (I'm not and I still loved the hell out of it).

As for RPG's, Valkyria Chronicles, Vampire Bloodlines, Dark Souls series.

Just off the top of my head for RPGs try Deus Ex Human Revolution, Wasteland 2, Divinity: Original Sin, Pillars of Eternity, Fallout games (especially 1,2, and New Vegas).

@PredatorRules: Didn't Dragon's Dogma just get released for PC? Is it better than it was when it was on consoles?

You can always check out GOG.com and Big Fish Games if Steam does not have what you are looking for.

Does anyone play Evolve on PC? Is the community dead? I played for 3 hours the other day, but maybe only an hour or so was I actually in game. Everytime it took me about 10 to 25 minutes to find an online match and that was really frustrating. I liked the overall concept of the game, but from coming from Left 4 dead 2, Evovle's community seems dead and it is puzzling because it isn't even a year old yet. I did request a refund, but I can always cancel that request. Also having a lot of in game crashes.

I think Evolve community died not long after the game came out.

If you like online shooters then try Quake Live. It's free on Steam.

If you haven't played Borderlands 2 yet then you should. Tons still play it online. It's a really good co-op game.

@insane_metalist: I will definitely check those out- but it is true then... the Evolve community is really dead? That's very unfortunate, because if the online community was bigger it would be awesome to play on the regular. I got Left 4 Dead 2 in 2010 and I still play it to this day, probably the best online shooter I have ever played (the competitive aspect is insane!) and to this day, the community is still going strong.

I think you should reconsider The Witcher 3. It is much better than the first two. I also was not too impressed with the first 2 games as an overall package. TW3 has made some major changes and it is one of the best RPGs I have played. BF4 is my favorite shooter. Definitely give that one a try.

For a shooter I think you could go with Rainbow Six Siege or Battlefront. Or even BF4.

If you're looking for some faster paced multiplayer, Team Fortress 2 (shooter) is pretty damn fun and has a lively community. On the action-rpg side, I am having a blast playing through Diablo 3 right now. Game has evolved a lot since it was released, never seen a game change so much, and for the better too.

Witcher 3 is significantly different than the first two; I know you said you don't want to hear about it, but it's really a brilliant game. Likewise in the GOTY category, Metal Gear Solid V is a lot of fun, and iirc there is multiplayer coming soon to PC and I hear it is pretty slick.

For strategy, you can't go wrong with Civilization 5 or Beyond Earth for turn-based games; if you want something relaxing that kills hours upon hours, either of those are good options. For real-time strategy, the recently released Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak is pretty amazing, and in that same era Homeworld Remastered is an AMAZING way to either revisit a classic game, or experience it for the first time in graphically enhanced beauty. For a more tactics-based strategy game, the newest XCOM is about as good as it gets, and with the sequel coming out soon it's a good time to jump on the justifiable bandwagon.

If you want a more old-school DnD-feeling RPG game, you have two awesome options: Divinity: Original Sin, or Pillars of Eternity.

Don't know much about sports games, but I hear Rocket League is just awesome.

Hmmm what else have I played recently....

...Fallout 4? A bit disappointing imo, but still an awesome game, especially if you are tired of Skyrim and looking for that next open-world adventure. Ooooooh and Just Cause 3! Amazing, silly fun!

Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is a lot of fun; likewise, a semi open-world experience and plays just like the Arkham Batman games.

@Mighty-Lu-Bu:

Maybe if you're okay going back in time and like RPGs, might want to try the Ultima 7 game with the Exult Engine. (Which modernizes the game) Open world game that pretty much inspired the level of freedom from games like Skyrim and Oblivion. And certainly more open world than many games today including Witcher 3.

the thing is that Witcher 3 is in a whole nother league. i also didn't quite like the first two, but holy crap the third one is really great. you should really try it, since you like open RPGs like Skyrim. i personally think it beats Skyrim.

my go-to shooter is still Battlefield 4. i think it's the best online shooter corrently for PC. many people also play CSGO, but i prefer the Battlefield's larger scale more. you should try both.

E: i actually only have these two, BF4 and Witcher 3, currently installed on my system lol.
