Casual game recommendations? (beehaw.org)

I'm looking for PC games that I can play while listening to podcasts- games that don't have engaging cut scenes or important dialogue, games that honestly don't require a lot of skill or thought.

I used to be really into things like Farm Frenzy, Rescue Team, hidden object games, that kind of thing. I got heavily into MMOs and stopped downloading casual games for a decade or so.

Now it almost feels like this sort of game isn't made anymore? Were they completely nuked by the existence of Gacha games, P2W, and anything that earns the dev a constant income stream? I'm happy to pay for a game once, but I can't be constantly buying booster packs.

I also don't want to play on mobile or on a console, PC Master Race here, haha.

New players don’t seem to realize that you can completely ignore the personal story. It just gives you something to do (and some rewards like while getting to level 80, which is really easy nowadays. I would recommend you make a few alt characters to try out different classes and see which one you like the most. Just take it slow and try whatever looks interesting and dont feel obligated to stick with one activity! No need to learn everything all at once :p
