Looking for an epic single player game that will run well on my system.

[Navigare Necesse Est]

Has Portal 2 already been mentioned? I mena Portal 1 was already good, but Portal 2 is just the stuff an epic game gets made of.

I'll throw Deus Ex 1-3 and Bioshock 1-3, into the above mix.

 

[Jezzah]

Witcher 3, Prey and dishonored 1 and 2 get my vote for your system. Loved all of those.

For slightly older goodness I'd suggest Portal 2 if you haven't got it already.

 

[Stigbob]

oh yeah! Alien Isolation is a must have game, just like witcher 2 and 3, skyrim is good too, didn't get Metro 2033.

Metro 2033's a nice post apocalyptic shooter, I have a soft spot for it because I've read the books. It should be quite cheap now.

Mass Effect 1-3
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Mirror's Edge Catalyst
Doom 2016
Alien: Isolation
Portal/Portal 2
Quantum Break
Redout

You can easy play all three Mass Effect games - one of the best story driven space RPG`s out there. I have 300h in ME2 only - its amazing with fantastic characters that you will really care about.

Agree on Skyrim and the Deus Ex games.

I'll widen the net a bit:

Stellaris
Anno 2205
Sunless Sea
Duskers

Oldies but goodies:
Daggerfall
Star Control II
Quest for Gory
Space Quest
Wing Commander series
Privateer
Elite 2: Frontier

I'd very strongly recommend XCOM. Older machines might struggle with XCOM 2, but the first Firaxis game still looks great and plays brilliantly.

Along similar lines INVISIBLE, INC. is a minor gem that I seemingly never get tired of.

Thought of another one, now a classic and most definitely epic... How about Half Life 2?? Ok it's getting on a bit, but if you've never played it it's an absolute essential.

The bonus with it being so old it is will run beautifully on anything! 4k/highest settings should be no prob on a 960.

Speaking of HL2 I saw a graphic and gameplay mod on r/pcgaming a couple of days ago that looked interesting. I havent had the chance to look into it but it may be worthwhile redownloading HL2

I'd very strongly recommend XCOM. Older machines might struggle with XCOM 2, but the first Firaxis game still looks great and plays brilliantly.

Can't beat the original UFO: Enemy Unknown (UFO: Defense for the 'Muricans) with DOSbox or the remake OpenXCOM.

Earlier mentioned Ur-Quan Masters (remake of Star Control II) is one of my favourites too.

And don't forget the original Master Of Orion (needs also DOSbox)!

So.

What will it be? Lots of epic games have been suggested. It's time to decide @Un1k0rn.
