What are your games to get into the season for its vibe?

I mean games you played / you are going to play.

My list looks like this for example:

Loving Crosscode right now, will hop onto Disco Elysium after that (finally).

For fall in general, I love S.T.A.L.K.E.R though and return to it regularly.

Crosscode was such a delight. I found the story surprisingly compelling.

Love the characters, too. Super endearing.

Yesss Crosscode is incredible. The soundtrack, visuals, puzzles - just a great package overall and it has stuck with me fondly. Can't wait for the dev's next game.

Never heard of the Crosscode.

I tried Disco Elysium for 3h and then stopped playing. But this game seems unique.

Nice!

Crosscode is great, the puzzles are brutal though, haha.

Disco Elysium isn't for everyone, it's mostly a love-hate-letter by Communists for Communists.

Oh, is it that time again? Time for warm tea, cozy blankets, and cowering from wolves in The Long Dark? This is the game that fully convinced me on the steam deck.

[Star Trucker] (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2380050/Star_Trucker/) - omg. Bought it about a week ago, it's devoured my spare time.

Never tried a trucker sim before, usually more into base building, but daym--throw some scifi in there and I'm hooked! All the levers and switches work and are satisfying to pull. Blast through the short tutorial, put on some music, decompress, and just driiiive(/float).

Abiotic Factor and Satisfactory

Also Factorio DLC is coming -+ 1 month if you are already interested in Satisfactory.

Not sure which season you are referencing but Valheim is really cozy and a very relaxing take on the survival crafting genre.

Really? It seemed stressful from the gameplays.

Don't be put off by the comparisons to dark souls, the main reason I said it is relaxing is the very lenient way it deals with its survival mechanics. Especially if you have a decent sized group you could totally just farm and play viking stardew valley.

I'm not sure if it has Autumn/Fall vibes, but I'm tempted to get Slime Rancher 2. I guess it's appropriate for harvest season, as you're farming and harvesting slimes? Something about it (at least I got this impression from the first game) feels cosy and perfect to play while the days get colder.

Autumn is cosy as I associate with mix of the relax, warm and rain - that is what I see Against the Storm like.

Elden Ring for every season, it's rough out there....

Real talk: I waited 2 years to play Elden Ring with the DLC so I'm all set for Autum and Winter.

Then Space Marine 2, but I will finish Space Marine 1 first.

Why not, also Terra Nil has almost every season but it reminds me mostly Spring as it's transition from nothing / harsh to greenery.
