Good games to play during this grim time of death and misery?

It’s kinda hard not to think of Resident Evil 3 this week

Seeing that the vast majority of COVID cases result in the person getting sick for a bit and then continuing on with life as general, like any other virus, I would say is a lot less grim than Darkest Dungeon.

It will sound repetitive but it is the most sincere, Gravity rush 1 and 2 are very beautiful and peaceful games that I would recommend them in these times (Are relaxing, beautiful and there is no violence with a wonderful story, GR Make you smile), then the games of Mario and Yoshi would also say that they are the best option to be at peace and the new animal crossing
In fact games like Tokyo Jungle reminds me a lot of the Covid situation.

this is the ultimate ANTI game for these times. instead of trying to stay away you are trying to roll up everything together. it's so joyful!

Gotta say, Death Stranding would be perfect for this time of social distancing. They should release the PC version early.

I just played through Detroit become human. And absolutely fell in love with this game. Can’t believe I waited this long. I didn’t want it to end. One of the best characters and stories this gen. There are points where it drags on and nothing exciting is happening but it sure picks up. I was addicted. Glued to the screen until I finished it. It’s rare for any game to do that these days.

Yeah, this is the answer. I wasn't even sure I would like this one, but I dusted off my Switch and gave it a shot...it's just the serene, stress-free gaming experience I was looking for. Plus, it's so darn cutesy, with an addictive gameplay loop to boot. It does a great job of whisking you away for a while, and helping you forget what's going on outside your door. I've had trouble letting myself get lost in anything these past few weeks, but this was just what the doctor ordered.

Playing Dragons Dogma now. It's an absolute powerhouse of a game. Still kicks the shit out of contemporary action games. Tense encounters, awesome boss fights, cool fantasy setting, bad ass monsters and so much fashion style you'll be fit for a dinner in heaven. Can't believe Capcom hasn't made a sequel. It's the biggest crime against humanity the world has ever seen.

What a useless generalization, you can literally say that of everything from car accidents (most of the time cars just bump into one another and the result is a scratch or minor bump) to the most vile cancers out there.
Even if covid ends up with a case fatality rate that is only double that of the flu, it will still kill hundreds of thousands to millions of people in the US this year alone (assuming nothing was done).
Back on topic: I play tetris attack with my daughter.

Children of Morta - A family sits at home while a maleficent force is infecting the whole world. Only two of them at a time venture outside to gather resources, upgrade skills and fight evil. A wonderfully charming rogue-like with RPG elements and a strong emphasis on family dynamics and internal relationships. Available on GP.

It's also useless fear mongering for us to act like the world is ending and everyone will die.
I'm not saying we shouldn't be careful, but some people acting like this is the end of times is not helping anyone.
And I amall for everyone being safe as possible. I just posted a thread in OT about a family in our neighborhood with COVID19 knowingly endangering the neighborhood and community.
Good to know people have common sense during COVID
So my friend and neighbor was talking to another neighbor today. This person was out with her kids and they were chatting. At one point she mentioned that their entire family has been feeling bad. My friend said "oh I'm sorry, what's wrong?" And she told her, "we all tested positive for the...

Being realistic is common sense...
