What is your favourite game outside of the touhou series

For me, I play a variety of games in many genres. If I had to choose, I would pick RPG games. Neptunia series is my favorite alongside SMT. 
But I am a college student now I don't have much time as I used to before, so I have to manage my time. I still love RPGs but nowadays I play a lot of casual games and competitive games, such as Valorant, Apex. And also some of gacha games like Arknights, Umamusume.

Fellow RPG lover, very cool. Neptunia is great. Although I've never played a SMT game, I don't really play gacha games personally, they just feel mike cash grabs most of the time to me. Honestly I've never understood the appeal of Valorant and Apex tbh, they've just never looked like my type of thing

@waddlewaffle @Isaac @Canaranjo what similarities do Pokémon hold to touhou and whynare you attracted to both? I've been hearing lots about Pokémon in this topic, so I'd like to know how and why Pokémon and Touhou have interlinking communities

Frankly, anything you could say as a similarity is kind of a stretch. I met both games in separate occasions and fell in love with them for separate reasons. The one thing that could possibly link the two for me is my love for cute designs and a large cast of characters with different flavors to them, that I can pick favorites over. The combination of both franchises is godly though. I recommend a playthrough for any fan of either franchise:

I don't have a specific, overall favorite game, but I'd say that my favorite game on the PlayStation 3 is LittleBigPlanet 2. It's just a great game. Heck, maybe even a perfect sequel to the original LittleBigPlanet.

It's just unfortunate that the servers for it (and the other PS3/Vita LBP games) had to die due to serious attacks, with no way to transfer your creations to LBP3 PS4.

I've never tried a metroidvania before, it's probably the only genre I've never tried

Well, if you're looking for an introduction to the genre, Touhou Luna Nights is a conveniently themed option. The price-to-content ratio isn't as balanced as it probably should be, but as a shorter experience it may be more what you're looking for.

 
I don't have a favorite game, but there's many games that I do like, some just as much as if not more than Touhou, such as Shin Megami Tensei(especially Nocturne, 5, 4A, and Devil Survivor though I'd like to know more about DDS, Last Bible, DS2, DS2RB and QDS They seem interesting since the final enemies there the Hindu Harihara, Canopus, Polaris, Universal WIll, Brahman is completely different to YHVH), the Final Fantasy series, Devil May Cry, Castlevania, Soulsborne games especially Bloodborne, God of War, MW2, various Roblox games, Snake(lol), Red Dead Redemption, various horror games, various light novel games, Deltarune, DOTA, MLBB, Starcraft, Sim City and Cities Skylines, and Rockstar games specifically GTA and Bully(There are more games that I like, but I don't feel like listing them).

I adore Celeste, Portal (both parts, but I prefer 2 more), and the Sonic games, with my favorite being Sonic Adventure 1 and Sonic CD. With Sonic tho, it's mostly nostalgia, but it's still fun. I like Stardew Valley as well, I have around 100 hours on it.

 
I'm really big into RPGs as a whole, but after playing so many I'm super picky on what I like exactly. Series like SMT and Bravely Default have turn economies, but something like the Mario & Luigi games have a unique more involved take on combat I enjoy a lot from the genre. I really like Tactical/Strategy RPGs, too.

Outside of that, I've played many different genres of games.

Hmmmmm...

I kinda love the early 2000-2010 internet culture, so

My favorite game is Halo:Combat Evolved Multiplayer xd

Even being dead nowadays, is still fun, even tho is hard to find players and mostly you find the same players you saw yesterday (i actually like that, i love little communities!), is still so nice to play it after a tiring day xd

It's just kinda sad that the friends i have don't really like it so i mostly play minecraft with them =')

@Isaacyes! I do! I really love celeste too, it was when i was doing a speedrun of the game, the level design is absolutely spectacular, though the game isn't as hard as everyone says it is. It is absolutely still one of the best indie games I've played in a long time

Agreed, and I'm glad harder games like Celeste have been getting the spotlight recently. One of my fav things about Touhou is the sense of accomplishment as your practice pays off, and that passion definitely carries over into other games like Celeste

 
Hey there! I totally agree with you about Celeste. The level design is amazing, and the feeling of accomplishment you get from beating a difficult level is unbeatable. Outside of Touhou, one of my favorite games is actually Celeste as well! It's great to see more challenging games like this getting the recognition they deserve. I'm always on the lookout for new games to try, and I recently stumbled upon a post about how to make a quick $100. While I haven't had a chance to try out any new games with my earnings yet, I'm excited to see what games I can add to my collection. What are some other games you would recommend trying out?

From the depths 2nd is war thunder 3rd empire at war . Is it weird that outside of 2hu a magical fanatical setting, My other favorite game is a somewhat realistic voxel combined arms craft/vessel game. Guess that explains my love for rika or just how spontaneous? the pc 98 games are. 

 
Yes, I'm going to be the one who says it. Minecraft is my other favorite game. I have been playing it since i was 7 and there's always something new to do.

Why? It's infinite! Want to make a sheep launcher? You can! Want to do some crazy redstone engineering to make a 20x20 blocks automatic door? You can!

It's even bigger if you add mods or graphical shaders. You could even get a Touhou mod for it, insanity. My personal favorite is the Sound Physics Remastered mod, the ambiance it brings to closed spaces is unreal.

Another advantage is that it runs on pretty much every device (including very old PCs, just play an older version like 1.12 or Beta 1.7.3) and it has surprisingly robust multiplayer even in bad connections.

I could go with nostalgia and say some of the great Wii titles i spent an infinity playing like "Godzilla Unleashed", "Monsters Lab", "Smash Bros Brawl" or "Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3" but it's in the past for a reason.
Pokemon was a close second to Minecraft, but it never solved the flaws in gameplay, and the level farming you have to do gets boring FAST if you don't use a cheat to speed up the game.

 
For all my life I've been playing a lot of Minecraft (easily 1200+ hours) but lately I'm not playing that often. This started with me getting into rythm games and touhou in the start of 2022. Now even I don't really know what videogames I like so I want to try different genres that that I haven't played a lot in the past.

 
I love Garry's Mod, TF2 and Kirby
