I think you might like 'Rogue Trader', even if you don't know anything about the 40K universe. Cool story, choices and fights.
Don't worry too much about not knowing the background lore. The game contextualizes a lot in dialogues and even little mouseovers. But be careful, if you like SciFi, you might fall into the awesomely rich and grim rabbit hole, that is Warhammer 40K.
The Emperor protects.
Oblivion Remastered is really good.
Oh man, careful OP doesn't post a two-page rant proclaiming how they're emphatically anti-Bethesda
I just restarted playing fallout 4. Can give that a shot if you can catch it on sale
Grim Dawn was pretty sick too if you like Diablo style games. I was pretty impressed
Shall I recommend WarZone-2100 ? It's free
Naturally we need to know which suggestions "won" ASAP
Not on steam, but Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup is pretty good, and free.
Terraria.
Try a different genre than you usually play.
Tetris Effect Connected
A Short Hike
Cult of the Lamb
What Remains of Edith Finch?
Leaning more into the management style of games, might be worth checking out Two Points Hospital (spiritual sequel to Theme Hospital), and the more recently released Rwo Points Museum?
Project hospital is a fun hospital manager but it's a lot more serious than two point or theme
Os there a specific genre of games you are looking for?
I got no clue if this would count as something you'd be into, but I've been having fun with Skyblock Zero on Luanti.
Idon't know how quickly you could finish it considering I play purposefully inefficiently, but it's a space themed with a quest line to follow where the only limited resource is your time. Spawn on a voxel, keep clicking to gain resources, and build out from there. So far one of my only gripes is storage in the game is only drawers instead of chests, so I constantly have machines and my inventory filled.
If you don't mind Early access games, try "Escape the mad empire". It's a nice RPG with tactical pause and some nice looting in it.
Hardspace Shipbreaker.
If you like rpgs and management I'd suggest Battle Brothers, a mercenary company management game. You basically travel the countryside fighting brigands and taking jobs from various cities all while building up your company with new recruits and equipment. It's got a bit of a learning curve but once you get the basics down it's oddly enthralling.
I wanted to recommend go, but you said single player... there's always Katago to play against.
I guarantee you'll never truly 'beat' the game!
