As someone who recently installed it, it took all of 20 hours to realize there’s either no or minimal MMR and I said fuck this.
Hubi@feddit.de 9 months ago
Can confirm. I have been playing since the beta and I hate it, yet I keep coming back…

Wtf… The review gets a whole other dimension with this knowledge… It’s more the “help me” of an addicted now…
bleistift2@feddit.de 9 months ago
What did you think this was – with 3750 hours of playtime on record?

Just one more turn, man. That's all I need. Then Ghandi will pay. Just one.. more.. turn...

I have 3800+ hours on POE according to steam… I hate this metric
moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 months ago
RimWorld, I have hundreds of hours of playtime, (not including my extralegal copy) and now I am obsessed with:
- human nuggets (not that kind) (not immediately, anyways)
- organ harvesting
- human leather cowboy hats (and dusters)
- greenhouses (for weed* and cocaine)
- how do I fit the new turrets in my existing killbox
*not actually true, it’s all coke
Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Greenhouses are my weird obsession. Probably not very useful for most colonies, but just look so nice.
BiggestBulb@kbin.run 9 months ago
Minecraft. There's always another automatic farm to create, a new cave to explore and a new mod to try out! Not to mention the fun that multiplayer brings...
jroid8@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I’m currently playing a modpack called Divine Journey 2 which I started back in the middle of October. 280 hours in and still in chapter 11 of the quest book (30 chapters in total) and it’s still addictive and enjoyable.
blue@ttrpg.network 9 months ago
thanks for the recommendation! i have been slowly getting into modpacks. just tried this out for a few minutes and already look forward to exploring more tomorrow.
adorable_yangire@lemmy.world 9 months ago
i didn’t know Minecraft was on steam
piyuv@lemmy.world 9 months ago
After some time all the caves are the same though…
BiggestBulb@kbin.run 9 months ago
That's why there's mods! Also, if the caves get samey, you can always go end-busting or build a new project.
NOPper@lemmy.world 9 months ago
My groups new obsession is Vintage Story. Set up a server and we’ve collectively put in hundreds of hours over the last few months.
Help.

Mabinogi.
Not many people have played it I’m sure, but imagine this:
You’ve just downloaded a new free MMO. You figure it’s gonna be super pay to win, but it’s free so why not give it a shot anyway.
For the first few minutes, after you stop being confused by the UI, you start to take everything in. There are no classes, you can do whatever you want. Want to be a mage AND a warrior? Totally doable. Want to be a bard playing in the town square for tips? Thanks to the robust music system, you can. In fact, you’re having trouble finding anything you can’t do.
A few months later, things are progressing nicely. You’ve mastered every skill, played thousands of songs by now, got some pretty good gear, and you haven’t encountered even a hint of the p2w you expected. Life is great. However, you’re going to need a bit of a gear upgrade before tackling this next dungeon. You check how much it’ll cost you. 300 million.
You’ve never even seen more than 50 million in one place before. Nevertheless, you figure with hard work, you can achieve it. After a month, you’ve gathered about 100 mil by exploiting market bubbles to sell anything valuable as fast as possible and in as large of quantities as possible. It’s still not enough though. The cash shop begins to beckon you. You could pay a little real money to buy a cash shop item, and sell it for gold.
But you realize that in order to get the 200 mil you need, you’d need to spend over 100 dollars. You rationalize to yourself that hey, the p2w isn’t that bad if it’s easier to make the gold in game than it is to make the real money to buy it. You continue on your quest, but you run into an issue. There just aren’t any more bubbles to exploit. You’ve crashed the market in your quest to obtain all the gold you need without spending a penny. You cave, and buy just a couple cash shop items to sell and make up the difference. You get your shiny new equipment. You feel powerful. It’s such a huge upgrade it’s almost ridiculous. You feel like 20$ was worth it to have this much fun. Out of curiosity, you check to see how much your next upgrade will cost.2 billion. It’s too late. You’re addicted. Sunk cost fallacy has kicked in. You’ve already invested in your character, and that next upgrade is gonna cost you 2000$.
You can’t quit. You’ve tried. There’s just no game like this anywhere else. You will spend that money eventually, no matter how hard you try to avoid it.This is my story. I’m aiming to get that gold without spending a penny. It’s been months. I’m half a percent if the way there. It’s not gonna happen. Every day I have to pull myself away from that cash shop. It would be so easy, but so irresponsible.
But one day I will spend that money. The game is insidious like that. The only way to avoid it is to either not play the game in the first place or not give a shit about progressing. I am in neither camp.Genuinely, I love the game, but every day I pray it gets shut down before I have the chance to pay in that much money. It’s so hard to stop myself.
ikidd@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Dude. Uninstall it, walk away, get a hobby with that $2000. Something you always wanted to do that’s on your bucket list. There’s no way playing a P2W game was on your bucket list.
PieMePlenty@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Or… you know… spend the 2k on the hobby you already have. Fuck it. Might as well dig a deeper hole.
jroid8@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Sombyr@lemmy.zip 9 months ago
I know you’re joking, or at least half joking, but I literally am getting help for this. I have psychiatric appointments constantly to deal with how easily I get addicted to things and occasionally try meds to try to improve my impulse control.
I haven’t quit the game because my psychiatrist and the few therapists I’ve gone through feel the game’s actually been a net positive on my life, and the real problem is my impulse control. If I wasn’t drooling over a 2000$ staff I’d be buying 2000$ worth of 40k minis that I’ll never actually get around to putting together and painting. That actually already happened a little bit during a brief period where I quit the game, and I did indeed buy a bunch of 40k shit I still haven’t assembled.
And009@lemmynsfw.com 9 months ago
You are addicted, try drugs instead.
Obonga@feddit.de 9 months ago
I mean you already show impulse control. Just keep that energy up. If you one day cave in try again to not spend more money for as long as you manage.
I am collecting anime figurines.
Send help
ICastFist@programming.dev 9 months ago
2 billion. It’s too late. You’re addicted. Sunk cost fallacy has kicked in.
I think the Sunk cost kicked in by the time you chose to spend money to get those 200 mil, since you were “already a third of the way” and “worked so hard already”
GoosLife@lemmy.world 9 months ago
How would it feel to just uninstall?
anarchy79@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Sounds like you’re playing a more generous version of capitalism.
sukhmel@programming.dev 9 months ago
I’ve played a different one and resisted spending cash. One day I felt depression getting worse over my addiction to that game and had given all of my accounts to other players and uninstalled everything. It felt kinda bad for a week or two but then got better. I’d say you still can win that
Piemanding@sh.itjust.works 9 months ago
Oh. It’s that game that has a song in DJMax Respect V. Who knew that such a cute looking game could be hiding something so insidious.
XeroxCool@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Elite: Dangerous has lots of players that complain all day and play all night. Probably EVE too
Irishred88@lemmy.world 9 months ago
I found Elite: Dangerous incredibly cool. How many chances will we get to explore some version of our solar system? I know the game feels empty, but I found it relaxing for the same reason truck simulator is relaxing, just cruising and enjoying the scenery

Escape from Tarkov… Fucking hate that game!! I’ll be on tonight 7pm central if anyone wants to team up.

I just started playing again after 9 years 😐
dubyakay@lemmy.ca 9 months ago
I end up resubbing every few years and just spin something cool endlessly, or get caught in WIS (RIP), or the ship map thing, or the exoplanet research project (RIP). I was really pissed the last time though at how expensive it has become. And I didn’t like the covid research minigame.

How has no one said WoW, so much time lost
Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 9 months ago
Is the time really lost if you got a ballin new mount and ledendary weapons and have perfected your spe- yeah i should go touch grass :/
dubyakay@lemmy.ca 9 months ago
The day I quit that shit, such a huge burden lifted off my shoulders. I felt the same with Ragnarok Online before that and a stupid gacha a couple years after WoW. But nothing was as strong as the WoW quitting experience. No more chasing that rare spawn. No more soloing the old raids weekly on multiple characters in an attempt to get that 1% drop mount or a missing transmog piece. No more dailies. No more arena/bg capping. No more stupid farm. No more relisting AH items every hour to undercut competition during sleep hours. No more gearing Alts so they can join main raids in case one is needed.
The only thing I miss is the gruesome rigor in our attempts to get realm first on an insignificant, casual pvp server, just to stay in top1000. 5/7 raid nights. 6PM to drop dead. But lots of booze and banter on TS. Fun times.

I’ve put in over 2,700 hours into Oxygen Not Included, so that’s my vote.

Oldschool Runescape. Some 15000 hours down now…
Thekingoflorda@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Rimworld for me. I would only end a session when shit hit the fan.
EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Ark. The original anyways, I refuse to buy 1.5. It was a poorly optimized piece of shit full of broken crap yet I couldn’t stay away. That is, until, it became so bloated I couldn’t fit it on my SSD anymore.
rab@lemmy.ca 9 months ago
That’s a dota 2 position 5 support player.
ParsnipWitch@feddit.de 9 months ago
RuneScape, Ark, … DOTA2 (especially with that cry for help).
Some people get lost for thousands of hours in grand-strategy games like Europa Universalis. Or MMOs like Eve Online.
But feeling like the game consumed you is grinder and MOBA territory.
Xakuterie@dormi.zone 9 months ago
That was ARK for me. Despite running on Linux like garbage I still put 3k hours in. They ruined a favorite mod after taking it over from the community dev. 3k hours more.
Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 9 months ago
On one hand, Vampire Survivor is super addictive and just extremely well made and feature rich. I recommend it to everyone.
On the other hand, please help me.
Commiunism@lemmy.wtf 9 months ago
Old School Runescape
Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Morrowind
It’s one of my favorite games of all time. But choose a wrong setup and you’re screwed. Don’t get anything before heading out you’re dead. Attack and peasant, dead. Go in that cave, dead. Get winded before doing anything, dead and frustrated.

Playing my first non-vanilla run with Krastorio right now, and it feels like I’m playing a whole new game. I can basically kiss my life goodbye… again.
Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 9 months ago
I've got 1500 hours on unmodified Factorio. If I installed mods I probably would waste away in front of my screen.
Which would be bad because then the factory would stop growing.
ExceedinglyPanWoofer@yiffit.net 9 months ago
I’m trying to do space exploration and Jesus it has a hell of a curve, especially if you’re playing alone
