playing computer games

I have total aphantasia, dyslexia and dyspraxia. I don't really get what intertwining of these results in major problems for some games, and not for others.
I get very lost in open games, and struggle with remembering the controls beyond the basic. I am 66.
I like good stories, and bit of fighting, and bit of problem solving. Prefer good scenery.
So, my favourite games are Uncharted, last of us, horizon, and Lego games.
I wondered if anyone else had issues, and ideas of other games.
Rather a flippant topic, but maybe of interest for some.

Uncharted, last of us, and horizon are all favorites, to which I'd add Mass Effect first and foremost, Red Dead Redemption, Nier Automata, God of War, and Resident Evil 4. With the exception of RDR, they are all what I call open-ish worlds -- freedom to go wherever you want on the map, but a very strong story that guides you from start to finish should you choose.
