Games that make you feel powerful without requiring skill
Post Body

When I had a big Borderlands 3 phase, I looked through all the legendary guns on the wiki (and in my vault), and all the characters skills to try to find the most OP synergy. I ended up with Hellwalker Zane's final clone skill. (It turned out people on the internet had better ideas than me but I still had fun, even if I can't survive in Mayhem 7 .)

In Noita, I spend like a third of the time crafting and testing wands, another third playing with the good ones I managed to make, and only the last third actually playing the game.

When playing modded Minecraft 1.12, I love spending hours looking through the Tinkers' Construct book, looking for the perfect materials to craft the perfect weapon.

In Vampire Survivors I got so powerful that nothing is a challenge anymore. And while it is a bit boring, it's still very satisfying. And besides, I can tune the difficulty by buying the right amount of eggs.

I love Sniper Elite for making me feel OP. I can take hours sneaking around, slowly picking enemies off one by one. But when they find me, I completely fall apart. Getting a headshot from a pistol from 20m takes me like 4 shots and at that pont I sould've been aiming for the chest (I never do).

Maybe it's nostalgia but I think Doom 2016 made me feel like this too. Doom Eternal is pretty good too but there's too much to deal with. Multiple weapons (that require swapping way too often), multiple grenades, melee attack, chainsaw, flamethrower, and I'm probably forgetting something

In games with multiple activated abilities with a >3 second cooldown, I never remember to use them. Well, I use maybe one. Same with consumables. In melee fighting games I alway spam one attack, maybe 2. I cannot pull off parries that require timing, ever. In Magicka I liked coming up with spells, but in combat I always reverted to spamming Q or something.

In conclusion, I'm looking for more games where I can become OP, but through just playing, research, thinking, and not "gitting gud".

Thanks.

While there is a skill ceiling the floor for any Musou/warriors game is very low but uts always very satisfying.
