KCD might be up your alley, it’s pretty fun if you like RPGs.
The Witcher 3 has nice combat, is 3rd person, story driven without a ton of stats and has nice graphics.
New Vegas has serviceable gunplay (it’s old and not super good as a shooter) but is very good when living in its world, doing quests, etc. There are some numbers, though.
Youa said no Ubisoft, but far cry 2 and 3 are good.
Crysis 1 is awesome and I hate that cryrek COD-ified Crysis 2.
What problems did you have? I just put the services I wanted in a compose file, configured sonarr/radarr to use prowlarr and my torrent client and done.
Later I added lidarr and readarr but ended up removing the last one. I found it easy enough, and the modularity makes it easy to use only what you need.
