Games to sink 100+ hours into

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

In terms of gameplay, Skyrim does nothing revolutionary. It is built on the same archetype as most traditional open-world RPGs. But the myriad of fully fleshed out quest lines are the real time-vacuums. There are so many things to discover and so much to do that it is entirely possible that you will get side-tracked from the main quest completely. It happened to me. I finished the quest lines of the various guilds (which sometimes felt better than the main story, mind you), meddled in the civil war, and spent the rest of the time farming dragons for my weapons and armour. Good times. 

Civilisation VI

"Just one more turn." This sentence has been the source of many caffeine-induced, sleepless nights for gamers fighting off vicious nations for world domination. Civilisation VI is one of the best entries in the series with streamlined gameplay that makes it much less frustrating to get your nation rolling. Be wary though, the series has not lost its unforgiving nature in terms of the amount of time required and the amount of thinking you have to put in to make every move. Will you vie for technological breakthroughs for a 

science victory? Or will you bolster your armies and fight everyone into submission? The possibilities are endless.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

This game needs no introduction. But for the uninitiated, The Witcher 3 is the last instalment of the critically-acclaimed Witcher series. It has one of the most unique RPG settings out there. You play as a Witcher, a monster-slayer for hire. But there's more to the story spread out over three huge games. The reason I'm picking The Witcher 3, though, is because it is the ultimate combination of a breathtakingly detailed world, deep gameplay mechanics, believable characters, and top-notch storytelling. If you haven't played the previous games, do not fret. You can jump into the series with this entry and feel comfortable with the story. 

Overwatch

Now, Overwatch might lack a true single-player mode, but it more than makes up for it with a surprisingly easy-to-pick-up multiplayer mode. Anyone can jump right in and play a decent game. It isn't really punishing for casual players, but if you want to get competitive, the ranked mode is your place. One might think that such a casual-oriented game won't have a strong ranked system, but once you start getting into the big leagues, team composition, ultimate combos and individual skills matter a lot. It is truly one of the most revolutionary first-person-shooter games out there. 

Destiny 

Originally starting off as a bare-bones loot shooter, Destiny has evolved into a game filled with interesting plotlines, tonnes of gear to earn, and exciting raids to participate in. The raids in Destiny are unlike anything seen or experienced in any video game. They require pinpoint teamwork to trudge through, and completing a raid after a 10-hour long session with your friends is one of the most satisfying moments ever. The game also features a full-fledged PVP segment with a wide variety of modes that are unique spin-offs of classics such as Capture the Flag and Team Deathmatch. Destiny: The Collection includes all the DLC that have been released so far and it might be found on sale. So, it's a great time to dive until the sequel comes out.
