I am not a regular gamer, but once or twice in the week I am indulging in some after work gaming. Mostly I enjoy games that are either story rich to put different thoughts in my mind or games with a simple, but enjoyable gameplay (not too much micromanagement).

Here are my favorites for an after work gaming spree:

What about you, what do you play after work (even occasionally) to get your mind off or do you have any suggestions in general?

Love some "turn your brain off" kinda games. BOTW AND TOTK (altho that one is a bit more involved) are perfect for this. Also love an after work session of some Warriors (not nba) game.

Generally things that are easy to pick up and get going again. If I have to try and find a notebook to get back on track I'll leave it for when I have proper time off. Often I put it down to pick it back up months down the line. Games such as the below are usually on my rotation.

Guild Wars 2

Some ARPG: Grim Dawn, Last Epoch, Diablo

PvE multplayer loot shooter: Deep Rock Galactic, Warframe

For me it needs to be something that my two daughters can watch me play. If I want something quick I'll normally go for some Fortnite. I'm trying to decide if Remnant 2 is alright my kids to watch me play, if I decide it is that'll be my other one.

I have a group of friends that I have been playing CSGO with every night for years. We now all have over several thousand hours and don't really play seriously on low rank and just have fun together. I couldn't not play the game tryhard after a day at work...but then with so much experience it's not a problem anymore.
