I'm looking for PC games that I can play while listening to podcasts- games that don't have engaging cut scenes or important dialogue, games that honestly don't require a lot of skill or thought.

I used to be really into things like Farm Frenzy, Rescue Team, hidden object games, that kind of thing. I got heavily into MMOs and stopped downloading casual games for a decade or so.

Now it almost feels like this sort of game isn't made anymore? Were they completely nuked by the existence of Gacha games, P2W, and anything that earns the dev a constant income stream? I'm happy to pay for a game once, but I can't be constantly buying booster packs.

I also don't want to play on mobile or on a console, PC Master Race here, haha.

that has all kinds of engaging dialouge. The story and characters is a huge piece of the appeal.

Yes! I revel upon receiving a nectar

Hades might be my favourite game of all time, but I'd say it's the opposite of a chill time

Well, I play it casually. I'm not that good at it, so I take it slow. But I probably agree with you anyway, it's a bit tense at times
