Platformers and some racing games. I just tried out Waverace 64 for the first time and it had such a hard learning curve with the controls that I absolutely loved it. It's challenging and then super rewarding and just feels right once you understand how to move.
I guess there are some shooters like Max Payne that have pretty good flow to them. Basically I just don't want to be interrupted too often with cutscenes when I'm in the mood for FLOW.
Racing games, specifically racing sims, are the ultimate game of maintaining perfect control for me. Once i've learned to stop overdoing it and keep safety margins, driving became an extremely pleasant game of keeping yourself precisely on the edge when you're pushing hard. It also feels great that competitive driving between two drivers with similar times always boils down to keeping your cool, seeing other guy panic and make a mistake due to your careful provocations is peak keikaku moment

Used to be siege back when I played it. Flow is really close to my heart as I love the feeling, it's addictive as frick and I try to chase it all the time. Too bad after 2 years working 6days a ween night shifts my reflexes slowed dows so much and so did my awareness that even a year later I still can't achieve my level from back then. Doesn't stop me from trying but without that skill level I can't enter flow almost at all these says. Any tips? I'm thinking about working out to increase my physical capabilities since no matter how much I play it doesn't work.
Nah I don't play Siege anymore. They had their time to fix technical issues with the game but they didn't and I can't bother anymore. Trying to play Apex now, do that a lot but the game's netcode it the worst shit I've seen since BF3 days so I'm can't get into it, I can feel how slow the game is at registering everything and it throws me off. There just isn't anything I can get my kicks out of anymore. But I'm close with Apex so I'll stick to it for now, for practice if anything.
Unironically Mario Kart time trials. The difficulty ceiling is pretty much endless in practice, and it's nice to get really good at a specific track without worrying about the plethora of shenanigans that can happen.
Hotlapping in general is just fun for me.

Last games I achieved flow in were probably Apex Legends (only for a short time when I played it a lot) and Vermintide 2. Maybe Risk of Rain 2 as well, but only with some characters.
I feel like apathy and relaxation should be swapped. If you’re skill level is high wouldn’t a low challenge game be boring while if your skill level was low an easy game would be appropriate for you?
counter strike surf maps
Team Fortress 2
Is Flow the reddit version of the Zone?
It's The Zone for nerds who don't play sports

Literally just stop trying and spam casuals until you feel the flow again
Just sounds like you're burnt out from the game and real life

Heroes of Newerth.
But it's dead now, so I'm at a loss as to what game I can play
shmups
Sauce?
Go play zeroranger.
WTF I thought Zeroranger is all green.
Well, it's actually closer to teal.
None because I'm bad at video games.
It can be anything really, but it typically happens with conventionally difficult genres with precise execution for me, such as shumps and fightans.
None. I'm not good at games. I just like them
2hu no bomb no hit runs, or competitive tetris/lumines games
Descenders, going fast and doing flips is comfy af
Also Skater XL with XXL mod
hollow knight boss rush
Posting the updated chart. OP posted an old version.

How is high skill level by definition not highly challenging as well?

This sounds like gay black social media slang.
