What are your favourite games which give that sense of journey? The one's that really pull you in and make you feel the world, immersing you in their environment.

My top faves are Cairn - the perils of the climb, touch of survival and little discoveries along the route really push this game for me, Outer Wilds - the waking gasp at the start, the sounds, and the game slowly building on your discoveries as you explore, Metaphor Refantazio - the narrator, the map trail, walking around town, townspeople chattering, combined just brings me in.

I'm looking for recommendations for High Fantasty Action RPGs. Recently tried Alabaster Dawn Demo quite liked it and am considering picking up Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Platform: Windows, Steam

Required: Action Combat, High Fantasy Elements, 2D, 2.5D, 3D are all fine. Prefer easy to pick up combat systems along with colourful worlds that have lots of magic, nature and creatures. I like games that lean strongly thematically in story/environment.

Do not want: Heavy Sci-fi focus. Romance, must be non-intrusive. Losing lots of progress/items when dying. Time-gated content. Subscriptions.

Some fantasy settings I enjoyed: Gujian3, Aeruta, Genshin Impact, Metaphor Refantazio, Expedition 33, Witcher 3

Games I found too difficult: Children of Morta - can't dodge well when there too many attacks, Monster Hunter Wilds - the animation action delays are hard and I'm bad at button combos.
