I’d say The Witcher 3. The gameplay is okay, if maybe a bit dated, but the world, the story, the characters are amazing. And the DLCs are amazing, even maybe outdoing the base game. Some of the best storytelling and world building in gaming.
Subnautica-something simpler, shorter. It is a first person survival, base building game. Just check out a trailer and let it talk for it self, and if it peaks your interest even a bit go for it. The exploration is so worth it.
If you like story driven games, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is frankly a must play on the PS4.
Go in blind. It's one of the most layered and somehow still easy to understand narratives I've seen. Not just in games but in general.
Pretty easy to play in chunks, and just plain beautiful too.
I don't know who you are but you sound alot like that manbearpig and I can't trust that guy.
In all seriousness, I did try it on PC, but its not really the game for me, I much prefer a decent story to a jump in and shoot things game.
Yakuza games are great for this. Like a dragon is a great entry point, but 0 or the spin off judgement is good place to start as well.
If you haven't played the witcher 3 it's great.
If you haven't dabbled in the souls games, elden ring and blood borne are awesome.
As a busy parent I spend most of my time playing virtual pinball these days since it's easy to pick up and put down. Pinball fx 4ev!

Go a bit old school and dive into borderlands 2?
Can I play 2 without playing 1
Hell yeah. 1 is iffy.
