Help me find a game to play...

Hey everyone, just looking for some help. I'm on PC and I've been looking for a game that is relaxed but with a little difficulty like Minecraft, and I would play Minecraft but I've played it so many times nothing feels fresh. I'm looking for a game that I can hop on in between classes, make a little bit of personal progress, then log off feeling mildly accomplished. Looking for maybe open world, survival-esque, and something I can listen to music with. Co-op would be an added bonus. Games I've tried:

- Doom (2016): Not into the whole intense gaming scene

- Terraria: Lose focus of the point of the game, feels like a grind for small accomplishments

- Minecraft: Nothing is fresh.

- CIV 5: Doesn't feel personal to me, fun for about 1 game then have to wait a month to play again.

- Rimworld: Love the game, but so many little things to care about it's exhausting, feels like a job at a certain point.

- Stardew Valley: same as Terraria

Not sure if these posts are redundant or if this makes sense but thanks to anyone who tries.

Gris is a lovely game. Relaxing.

Darkest Dungeon is another good game. Not nearly as relaxing, but I think it saves every turn, so you can just drop off in the middle of a fight and come back later.

Flower is good. So is Auditorium.

Dark souls 3

I've been told it's v rage inducing but honestly seems very straightforward which I could get into.

It is both the most frustrating and best game i've ever played with the exception of bloodborne. You'll die a million times on your first run through but finally beating the game is the most satisfying thing ever.

I actually rarely rage in ds3 you can really get into it if you get the hang of it

Interesting. Maybe I'll give it a go and try to keep it laid back. Ty

The Forest is great, a little janky but I enjoyed it the entire way through.

Hmm. Not sure if I’m into the horror aspect of it but I might bite.

It's really not scary at all, mostly atmospheric.

FTL? On my list play so I haven't gotten to it yet but it might be something you could try. I have heard it is a little on the more hardcore side of things.

Moonlighter is a another one. It's a dungeon crawler rogue like I believe but the whole idea is that you have a shop to sell your spoils after and then get stronger from there. It's another one on my list that I haven't tried.

Lastly, I can recommend Outer Wilds. This one I have played. It's an amazing indie puzzle game set in a miniature solar system. There's not as much replayability as with minecraft or the others but it's worth checking out.

I’ll for sure check them out. Watching some videos on Outer Wilds right now. Thank you!
