Endless Space 2, ever since the Re-Awakening update. And it's still the best 4x space game out there.

Civ4. I still play that shit weekly, often even more. Specifically the latest iteration of the Fall From Heaven Mod, but still, great game.

No Mans Sky. Off and on for like 4 years now. But I keep coming back with each new update and I get completely hooked again.

A link to the past, I couldn’t put that down once I started it

Tales of Berseria. I loved the 40 hours I spent with Velvet and friends, but that ending really upset me and I couldn't stop thinking about it after.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Do I need to play any of the other Tales games in order to enjoy Berseria? There’s so many of them! Seems a bit overwhelming to get into

Got hooked on Factorio back in 2016. Still am.

Friend gifted me this game just a few weeks ago. It gained more prominence in my dreams than i am willing to admit

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

What are you in bed dreaming for? Don't you have some iron throughput to upgrade?

Ingress. I was obsessed with it. Couldn't stop playing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Same. I rocked that game for a year before Pokemon Go came out. It was insanely addictive. I would walk like 3-5 miles a day and I'd take way too many breaks at work to go hit the portals by my office.

Cyberpunk 2077 when it was released. And then panam made me cry ( ._.) And that scene inside the robo is burnt into my brain xD

I kinda didnt even realise alot of the bugs, cause I really enjoyed the story. I remember seeing the trees through the walls but the immersion/ my imagination was strong enough to mask them .D

Last one was dark souls 3... But now it is Voices of the Void.

Dragons Dogma 2

  • story: garbage
  • storytelling: garbage
  • performance: garbage
  • CAPCOM: garbage

But I tell you what, the world, exploration and gameplay they've put together, it's all A+.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I turned it to Japanese voices so I didn't have to hear the god awful English voice acting and it's improved my experience a lot

I hope they add a localization patch so I can change it to something fun like Spanish or German

Ignoring digital releases of card games, which I've loved since I was a kid, it has to be Valheim. I would spend hours and hours making structures like castles and villages, with their own defense mechanisms against monster invasions. It's a wonderful indie game, very pretty for only taking 1GB in storage.

The Finals, can't get enough of it since launch. Pushing for top 1000 this week.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Right now, Death Stranding.

Edit: I went back to look at the reception of this game from at its release. It did great at the VGAs, but general consensus on Reddit and other forums negative. I also remember how much The Giant Beastcast shat on that game (I stopped listening to them pretty soon after that too, but for unrelated reason).

The Coffin Of Andy And Leyley

... please don't judge me

Desperados 3. I've put in close to 100 hours on it and I'm just 4 achievements away from completing all its challenges. I'm so bummed its developer had to close down a few months ago because their games are criminally underrated and are from a very niche genre.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Signalis. Which is weird, its over in 10 hours but I got hooked on the fandom crack until recently.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I know I was super late to the party, but I'm genuinely surprised that nobody has said Skyrim, yet.

Before that, Subnautica (both of them).

But I've probably spent as much time in Skyrim as both Subnautica games combined.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Well, Skyrim is already 12 years old. Most people played it obsessively a long time ago. Of my 1000s of hours spent in Tamriel, only 100 or so were in the past year.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Elden Ring (again) I go back and forth between many games

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Just waiting for shadow of the erdtree to reignite this addiction...
