Creeper world 4. Especially the community made play as creep levels.
Haven't played CW4 yet but 1 & 3 are awesome chillout games.
Skyrim or Fallout 4 when I want to chill as an adventurous muderer
Earth Defense Force when I want to blow shit up
Dinkum is a really good Stardew Valley/Animal Crossing mix. If you like either, you'll likely end up like me, playing "just a bit" and realizing over 4 hours flew by.
Weirdly, Yakuza. Not even to thrash thugs, just to have a virtual night out with some karaoke, pool, darts... sexy bug-lady wrestling... I love most of the mini games in the series.
You want arcade experiences
Legit, I was looking into getting a light gun working with my gaming setup recently cause that was my favorite thing to do at arcades.
These days it's Baldurs Gate 3 but before that, it's Grimdawn for ARPG itch or Stardew valley if I just want to turn a game on and afk alot. (Sometimes that's Grimdawn too)
Descenders (oddly satisfying mountain biking game)
Life is Strange was a good one to chill and enjoy the unfolding of events (any of them are good. The 1st and Colors were my favorites)
Grand Turismo I've been on. Never really been a racing fan but for a few races I'm actually relaxed and enjoying myself.
Descenders is such a fun game! I love doing suicide trick jumps into the finish area so the level successfully ends with my rider crashing through the barriers in the background
Also some great tunes. And the crazy obstacle course levels are a blast
Earth Defense Force or Creeper World 3
Spend hours downloading / messing with proton / configuring, and then play for 15 minutes...
At this point I'm almost convinced I just like the setup process.
Otherwise probably quake.
Diablo II Resurrected. I've been playing it (Diablo II) for 20 years now. Even though I know the game inside out, a new rare rune drop can still make my day. I usually listen to podcasts meanwhile.
Vampire Survivors was tons of fun until I unlocked pretty much everything, but it also goes great with podcasts.
Clone Hero. Even though I only have a keyboard (so say goodbye to the fast strum bits), It often takes me from 'I just want to chill' to 'this song was FIRE'.
Bloons td6 is pretty cool and laid back.
So what games do you play when you just wanna relax?
Solitaire
Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, My Time at Portia, Cozy Grove or Good Pizza, Great Pizza!
I usually listen to music and play driving games like Forza Horizon, BeamNG, or Dirt.
Also roguelike games like Deadly Days.
I like playing on the minecraft server "diamondfire". You can make minigames and play minigames made by other players
Hitman: World of Assassination is what I usually go to when I just want to chill and not think much.
