Games For Lonely Souls

I'm a big champion for smaller, more tightly crafted games and Near Death looks like it fits the bill. I know the thread is supposed to give you games to play, but you gave me one as well. ?
That's awesome! I'm happy to hear that.
I have never played them, but maybe Kona and it's sequel might be something that interests you. I've heard good things about Kona, less good things about the sequel though. Plus, it's more snow! Who doesn't love that white, fluffy stuff? Sorry I don't have anything else to offer. I thought I did, but now I have a clearer understanding about what you're looking for.
Oh, dude, Kona looks pretty damn fantastic. YES, SNOW! Thank you so much, Ian!

I always felt the original Digimon World had an ominous feeling, at times isolating especially compared to it's sequels.

Omori.
Though this one is also delving into trauma that leads into depression and becoming hikikomori, and in the end, in some ways reminds you how much you need your friends and how lost you are alone.

To me, both open world zeldas, Breath of the Wild and Tears of The Kingdom but for me personally breath of the wild as my enthusiasm has not yet been awakened to play Tears of the Kingdom in same manner. Best compartison I can make for BOTW is a certain "death strandingness" to it. It can be very lonely, yet feel free. You interact with NPC's but there is not that many there, the world is quite alone without human touch. I could spend days just hunting in mountains for deer and bear for sake of a sidequest.

Silent Hill 1-4
Somewhat self explanatory, most people would say SH2 explores lonely isolation best, though all of the games have this element. SH4, even for it's flaws, makes meta commentary about being trapped in your room by having the main character be literally trapped in their room and unable to do much more than observe outside world. SH3, and SH1 also do this, but of course, much like moments in Omori, this is also depicted with horror that I know is not for everyone, especially loners.
 
Dark Souls 1 maybe and Endroll probably I really Can't think of any Other Game right now for lonely Souls.I don't know if they are for Lonely Souls but.Fallout New Vegas,Ghost of Tsushima,Nier Automata
 
As people have pointed out, the Souls games are pretty lonely and melancholic. Sometimes I just fire up the Firelink Shrine or Majula ambient music to bask in that feeling.

But what really makes me feel like that is the Stalker games. Roaming around the Zone, in the cold depressive wilderness that is constantly trying to kill you, among the ruins of the soviet cities and military bases. Sometimes running into other loners, or getting into gunfights with the people who also want you dead.
