Hey folks!

I've been looking for games that feel "alive" and less lonely when playing solo. I really enjoyed games like Palworld, Baldur's Gate 3, and Guild Wars 1 because of the companion aspect — having characters around, interacting, or just not feeling alone in the world.

I'm currently in a bit of a gaming burnout and struggling to find something that clicks.

Do you have any recommendations for games that:

• have companions, summons, or a party system
• or just generally feel alive (NPC interaction, world activity, etc.)
• ideally with some form of progression (leveling, builds, etc.)

Open to both singleplayer and online/co-op games!

Thanks in advance 🙂
