and PoP is Prince of Persia here?Yes, sorry.
I keep hearing how easy this game is, so I bought it for a second time. At least this time it started. The camera is spastic, there is no map and I have no idea where to go. Not playable for me. Immediately got a refund. Most games I get at this price I don't even play; if I did steam would be pissed as I'd want a refund from every game I've purchased. I need a playable easy game without puzzles or difficult controls. Is that too much to ask? It needs to be linear so I don't get lost. With a good story that I can enjoy. I don't think there is such a thing. I've already bought BGIII twice and had it refunded both times (I never played it and it was too expensive to not play). I bought Skyrim and haven't played that either, but the refund period has passed. Same with Oblivion. Open world games are NOT for me.

I think your best bet is to pick some game which is turn based and board-game like, but less face it, it is not like your requisites are easy to meet.
See, good games that don't require much thinking (ie. puzzles) are reflex and dexterity games, and since you don't want any reflex/dexterity game those are ruled out.
On the other hand, games that don't require fine hand-eye coordination skills usually pose an intellectual challenge because what else could they offer? But you have ruled those out too.
At this point I think the only games left are visual novels and other story-driven games in which the appeal of the game is the plot and everything else is just decoration.
IMO if I were you I would give Battle for Wesnoth a try - it is turn
based, so no reflexes, and it is very easy to learn, so not much thinking (at the begining). It is available for free (as it is FOSS software). If that does not work for you then I suggest you try with visual novels and
if that does not work either then I suggest you find a non videogame
related hobby.

I just want a story I can play through without any difficulty. I want
to be able to finish a game. Right now, I can't make it through
tutorials or prologues in most games. I'm wasting my money and time. I almost always get a refund on games I buy, when I can. I've only (so
far) played 2 games I liked. Kakkarot and Mech Warriors 5 Mercenaries.
I bored 18 hours in, which is a record for me in Kakkarot. I got bored
3 hours in (close to a record) in MW5M due to the repetition of levels.
I have no incentive to buy DLC. I'm simply looking for a game I can
finish without struggling with my multiple deficiencies as a human being.
Simply, I don't want a challenge! That's what a game could offer me. I can't be the only one.

I've got the perfect game for ya. Legend of Zelda - Echoes of Wisdom for the Nintendo Switch. I just finished it after playing for maybe 3-4 days casually, and it was by far the easiest Zelda game I've ever played. Was fun, but super, super easy. Seems to fit the bill of what you're looking for as well.
Now, you might not have a Switch, and that's okay. Because here's the link from the Internet Archive that has the last released version of Ryujinx Switch emulator:
https://archive.org/download/ryujinx-1.1.1403-win_x64/
And here's the link to the ROM from my site:
https://flisterz.throwbackbbs.com/filebase27.html
Just need your trusty computer and a controller and you're good to go.

Couldn't get Ryujinx to work. Complains about prod.keys, it's in the system directory under Ryujinx as I've read to put it. I have no bios either, and haven't found any to download. Thanks but no thanks, I need something that isn't going to stress me out.

Crap, forgot about that. It's actually super easy to get working. I'm pretty sure I have the latest keys and firmware.
I do. Here's where the keys and firmware are:
https://flisterz.throwbackbbs.com/filebase19.html
It's just the two files named "firmware.18.0.0.zip" and
"keys_18.0.0.zip". And here's the instructions to install them. Takes
two seconds:
https://github.com/GreemDev/Ryujinx/wiki/Ryujinx-Setup-&-Configuration-Gui itial-setup---placement-of-prodkeys
Just follow those two steps and you're good. Right after it says how to install games as well.

Well, most games are designed to be challenging because people plays them for the challenge.
There are non-challenge games which are aimed at people who does not want
to play a winnable game, but just to sit down and relax. Think of stuff
like SIMS, or farm simulators.

Thanks much! I'm up and running with very little difficulty now! It looks fun. I little kiddy for my tastes, but that's what I have to deal with with my requirements for a low difficuly game. I just wish I could stretch my CPU and GPUs legs!
