Getting into Pc Gaming

Hey everyone!
   I have had a pc for around 2 years now, and I have only edited and created things in the Creative Cloud Suite as a hobby. I built a computer that I planned to do games on, but instead did content creation on. I'm wanting to play games now, but I have no idea what to really play. Basically, I'm looking to get into Pc Gaming, but I have no idea what to get. I already have basic blizzard games like Heroes of the Storm and Overwatch, but I want to get into fun RPGs or Triple A titles. Any suggestions for a budget of around 70 USD? Thanks! I'm running a 1070 and a 6800k by the way.

Get yourself The Witcher III GOTY and you have atleast 60+ or more hours of fun and things to do.

 

I personally have about 134+ hours alone on the standard Witcher III and don't have the Story completed, with all the side quest's and things you can find and discover in this game you have a lot of fun in it.

witcher 3

hellblade: senua's sacrifice

skyrim

shadow of mordor

dishonored

fallout

deus ex

metal gear solid 5

if you like heroes of the storm, you can always try League of Legends or DoTA

How do Reavers clean their spears?

$60? It cant be right, this is launch price. And on GOG it is 100 reais, which converting is ~30 dollars. And when I got it was for 80 reais in a promotion.

 

But even for 120$ ir would be worth it, since it is better than 2 new games combined

Ultra is stupid. ALWAYS.

Still, at launch the full price of TW3 + expansions was 80$ IIRC, so now after years it should be way cheaper than 60$... and CDPR always put the game on insane sales from time to time

Ultra is stupid. ALWAYS.
