Can you recommend a game to me

Hi, I have always played games where you fight with other people or monsters (Starcraft and Diablo 2).  They are fun but I kind of want to move away from that a little bit, try something new.

I will give one example of the kind of games I like.  I remember this game from Microsoft, it was similar to Starcraft in the sense that you mine resources first.  I remember there was iron ores in the ground that you could mine ores out of, you could also fish to feed your army.  I thought it was really cool.  I would also like a game where there is a spirit of helping and building with other people, maybe even some kind of trading?  Are there games like that?  I am a bit tired of killing stuff lol.

Thank you.

Age of Empires.  (AOE) Definitive Edition is best.    https://store.steampowered.com/franchise/AgeOfEmpires

Minecraft on multiplayer servers.

I'm playing in Warhammer 40k soulstorm(and Ultimate Apocalypse) highly recommend

Now for something completely different Balatro. I've got over 100 hours into it so far. Due to the randomness of the game, it is part luck and part skill. I've unlocked all of the different decks, which give different "bonuses".

The game you may be thinking of from Microsoft could be "Freelancer" which came out in 2003. Although there was combat involved.

You can try Anno 1800, Factorio, Stardew Valley (my fav), Satisfactory

Inspired by Animal Crossing, Dinkum is set in an Australian outback where you mine ores (including iron), fish, and build a town with friends in co-op mode. Trading with NPCs or players (via gifting or selling) is a key feature, and the game focuses on community-building over combat, though you can fight minor creatures if desired.
