I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it’s a bad game. Don’t do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you’ll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent’s cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

    The Sims 4, I have 600+ hours on it somehow, don’t even bother asking me how because I also don’t know how that happened. It’s widely regarded as the worst one in the series as it lacks the most content, has unbelievably egregious DLCs and it’s plain out fucking boring compared to older titles. If I had to guess how I’ve played so much I’d guess it’s the CAS (character creator) and building mode which are both fantastic, the game itself is blergh at best, especially without mods.

      I feel this. I loved 1 and 2 growing up. Easily the most nostalgic games for me. 3 was pretty good but I didn’t get too far into it tbh. Spent a lot of time with 4 (pirated) and enjoyed it.

      Fast-forward to a time where I no longer pirate games so I decided to play it through Xbox Game Pass with limited DLC and it was just bland. Felt like I was missing the “full game” and the price tag to own such a thing is out of this world. Last I checked if you want “everything” you’d be spending around $1k USD.

      EA is disgusting.

        I really miss playing Sims and Sims 2 growing up. That, and the random other Sims games, like Sims Theme Park. I loved those.

        I do still play Sims 4 but MAN the amount of basic game content that is locked behind a million different DLCs is insane.

      I like The Sims 4. I think it’s the best Sims game. The mood system makes it so much more interesting than previous games and makes the sims feel a lot more like real people.

        To each their own, I find it incredibly boring, easy and lacking in attention to detail compared to Sims 2 or even 3.
