My girlfriend has never really gamed. But she’s now forced to move less than she would like to (health problem) and she’s getting bored. I was thinking of introducing her to a game or two that we could play together. She’s not the real action game type, and seeing as she has no experience with controller/mouse and keyboard I was thinking starting simple.

I can’t think of anything else than Factorio, as she likes organizing/keeping track of stuff.

Would you recommend against that or have anything better in mind? Let me know!

Half the heavy hitters in Elder Scrolls Online are house wives because it’s a game where you get more power just for putting time into it. Also the collecting of pretty outfits.

Came here to say the same.

ESO, Guild Wars 2 - or even Final Fantasy XIV, Genshin Impact or WarFrame - will provide an interesting world, lore, objectives, opportunities for group and co-op play (or PvP if that’s her thing; she might not know it yet).

Girl+noob doesn’t have to mean farming/building games. Unless, again, she realises it’s her thing.

And outfit fashion is the True End Game™️ for so many online games. Warframe calls it FashionFrame. 😄
