So I'm looking for a new game, but have know idea where to start. Some things I'm looking for (note; it does not have to fulfill every one of these requirements, but I would prefer if it could meet more than half of them):
-available for PC
-A good, solid story
-several hours of gameplay
-something with cut-scenes that aren't half-assed(I've had enough games where the cutscenes consist of character A and character B's pictures in front of a mostly static back ground while dialogue is presented in the form of text boxes across the bottom of the screen)
-plenty of action(as in, nothing turn based. I've got enough games in the turn based strategy department to last for a long time. Also, no point and click adventures)
-preferably on steam(since I already have $20 in my steam wallet)
-Not an elder scrolls or fallout game(though other similar games could work)
-preferably the visuals and environments should wow me. I don't need it to be the most graphically sophisticated and impressive game ever, but I definitely don't want something that looks like it was made to be played on a GBA, or as a browser flash game
So, guys, please give me your best suggestions.

And it's pixel art... -Shad- ah blam it all... All the games I'm thinking that aren't mentio- wait a- nope. -Red Faction Guerilla? Let's check the store: -if you like games such as doom I heard Wrack would be good -these other people mentioned some good ones -I'm kind of interested in trying out Stalker -anybody mention Just Cause 2 yet? -State of Decay?

Edited by Moda Sadum: 2/9/2014 7:28:52 PMEDIT: I remembered some of my other favorite PC games after checking my steam lol: Dishonered, Borderlands, and Rust Portal 1&2 (mostly 2, it's better) are some of the best story driven games I've ever played. I'm kinda into sandbox and RTS and MMO games (ex: Godus, command and conquer [the old ones], KSP, Spacestation D-f9, and Starbound) so I can't really give you what your looking for

Contrary to all these people saying The Witcher 2... I say play the Witcher 1. THEN play the Witcher 2, because both are great games.

Edited by Derp: 2/9/2014 4:57:03 AMThe Witcher 2. It's a must play.
-
Deus Ex: Human Revolution The Witcher 2

The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings. You don't have to play the first, everything is filled in for you.
-
The Witcher 2.

I can't believe me of all people is recommending either one of these games, but DMC4 and DmC. I don't know if you like hack n' slash games but those are the only two I can think of that I can assume you haven't played and are on pc.
