I'm looking for games that make me feel small and insignificant (sh.itjust.works)

Pretty much, I'm looking for a game where I'm not the hero, I'm not the protagonist, I'm just a pawn in the big picture.

Preferably a game with a big open world too, one that feels real and isn't just a predetermined path for my player.

I also like games where you aren't clearly stronger than all your opponents like you're some sort of God so they actually feel intimidating and there is a fear of dying

All suggestions are welcome

Thanks :>

Kenshi is without doubt the answer to OP.

I stopped playing and disliked the game because I felt too small and insignificant, all the time.

I eventually became a cyborg and destroyed every settlement in the game with an army of the undead. It made me feel like God. But it was hard as shit and took many hours of being beaten and forced into slavery.

Every game I mentioned is like this. Kenshi just straight up uses it as a descriptor on the store page lol

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
