FTL is a great chill out game for me. The only problem is I've put in so many hours that I've practically seen everything! I looked into some interesting mods but just haven't tried them out yet. When I think about it, FTL shouldn't be that chill, but there's a certain simplicity in the gameplay, and the ability to pause all the time, even during combat, gives me the ability to take my time thinking through what I'm gonna do.
Underrated chill out game, agreed, maybe I'll finally get around to trying some mods.
Yeah I haven't tried the mods either and I kinda suck at the game but I've always felt like it has a low cost to entry, which is why it feels chill to me. A lot of death anxiety in games is due to time investment and, frankly, like BOTW, fear of long loading screens more than any in game punishment.
Ftl has such a satisfying and similar gameplay loop and allows so much pausing that it doesn't really feel stressful for me. I still hate dying and do it a lot in the game, but I can play ftl with a sort of soft mental focus that many other games don't allow me to do
