What games do you revisit or replay?

I go back and replay rpgs that i've already beaten whenever I don't have anything else to do. I think I've went back to shin megami tensei titles the most. Love the hell out of those games

Civilization IV: Beyond the Sword continues to be the best entry of the series in my opinion. I've been playing it for half a decade now yet there's so much of it from scenarios and modpacks that I haven't even tried out. Not to mention that I still have never managed to get a cultural or diplomatic victory.

I had a perfect town on Animal Crossing City Folk, but I sold that Wii a long while ago. I can't find the same enjoyment in New Leaf and I've been meaning to replay City Folk again.

Nekopara , 7 sins , Simcity(2013)

because of 7 sins , now my life is full of choice , but less degenerate

Arcana Heart 3 as my avatar might clue into... it's the only game I really care about becoming good at.

I keep going back to pre big-bang maplestory servers.
Just like when I was playing retail back in the day, I could never quit.

Once in a while I like to fire up WARGAME: Red Dragon and imagine if the Cold War went hot. It's a shame the AI's so crap; in terms of fidelity, it could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with ARMA and the Red Orchestra games.

Skyrim is also pretty great. Might revisit that once I get some things sorted out.

I actually forgot I even had WG:RD! Apparently I've spent 7 hours playing it (as opposed to 45 for AirLand Battle).

I don't really re-play games all that much simply because most of my favourite games are large time commitments. I often get a surge of nostalgia for something, but that doesn't always translate to me sitting down and replaying it again. There's just so much new stuff out there I want to try!

For me, it's definitely retro games that I like to replay, usually because they're short contained experiences. In particular, I love my Sega Saturn, and play NiGHTS and Panzer Dragoon on it frequently. I cannot get enough of those games. I also really enjoy playing Jet Set Radio on the Dreamcast from time to time. The aesthetic and soundtrack combined with the quick arcade gameplay makes it easy to pick up off and on.

Yume Nikki also gets an honourable mention here.

Pokémon (any version really, Platinum and Crystal are my go to games) is also always a solid game to come back to. Sometimes the real world gets me down, and escaping into a game in which most everything in the world seems right is uplifting. Plus, I associate Pokémon strongly with my childhood, so it always manages to make me really happy.

Oftentimes I just like to throw on some music, grab my joystick, and cruise around on Elite: Dangerous.  It's mind-numbing, but in a good way. I've found it's a similar feeling to playing Euro Truck Simulator 2, or even just driving aimlessly around the countryside past midnight.

It can get just the slightest bit tedious though. To the point that I've considered learning image-recognition programming just to create a functional autopilot.
