Yeah, that's the danger, those good games leave you fucked up afterwards because real life can't compare.
Some regular snes and gameboy games even did that for me, even though some of them were turn based rpgs. Especially if the story is good.
I literally felt depressed when I finished some of these games.
I'd say download a snes emulator like zsnes:
Then find a website to download snes games in bulk (the website above might actually have that).
You'll have a lot of free good games that will take years to complete if you don't over do it.
As for action rpg's (PC games) I'd recommend.
Torchlight, Torchlight 2 and Grim Dawn.
There are also a lot of good emulators for old school games that are really good:
Like the Visual Boy Advance emulator for gameboy advance games
Or the No$GBA emulator for nintendo DS games (Castlevania Aria of Sorrow is a must play).
However, if you are in your 20's and it feels like your life is going nowhere, I'd recommend that you stick to tv shows, anime, movies, etc and don't play any games at all.
I really haven't played any games in years. I can no longer enjoy them because I realized I was just coping and wasting time by immersing myself in games. I wasted many years that had I put into doing what I'm doing now, I'd probably be well off.
When I'm finished wealthmaxxing I'll go back to gaming, as I'll have the free time to enjoy doing it and no stress of worrying about paying bills.
You should really avoid games right now until you get your finances in order, it will steal away a lot of your life.
At the same time though, I would not be the person that I am now had I not had those experiences. The reason why I feel so disconnected from this reality (real life) is because of anime and gaming. Those realities are just so much better in comparison that real life doesn't even feel like something worth "fretting over" to me.
I want to create an enjoyable life for myself, but at the same time, I've been stripped of any sense of "valuing life" (as in "human life") or even my fear of death. I'm numb really, to me this world doesn't even matter because in comparison to what I've experienced by immersing myself in media, real life just pales in comparison, real like just can't compare to it.
On that same note I find Isekai anime kind of sadistic lol, because it is really tugging on the psyche of people like myself that the genre is geared towards. I would leave my current life on the spot if I saw some portal open up in front of me (maybe I'd write quick note for my parents lol).
The way I look at the world, how "cold" I am, is all rooted in the outlook I have in life, that was shaped by my experiences from gaming and anime. So I don't regret doing those things, because had I not done them, I probably wouldn't have ended up being me, and I probably would have ended up being blue pilled.
Maybe the reason I can disassociate from humans so well is because I never really socialized with people much, so I don't feel an "attachment" to "people"?
Maybe my psyche has categorized "people" as "characters" and in that sense I think of people as something "in a game" because I've mostly only interacted with "characters" through media, so their deaths and lives hold less weight to me?
By the time I started truly interacting with people at work and trying to be outgoing, my core personality traits and mindset was already cemented. In my childhood I would go to school and "play a role", and then come home and go back to being myself.
I've spent a lot of time becoming who I am, thinking about why I am this way, what may have caused it, etc.
The thing about being a loner is that introspective thought comes easily, because in the silence of seclusion there is only your mind to converse with.
