Factorio.
The factory must grow!
Spent like 80 hours in the last two weeks playing Space Exploration. Send help
It took me 500 hours to finish that monster
Can’t find this game. Is the name written correctly?
Space Exploration in this case is a mod for Factorio
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.
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.
Install the Bob Angels suite of mods.
It’s the same game, just more ores, liquids, and things to do.
Takes about 120 hours to finish a run through.
I’ve heard this pack can be overly complex, but I know one day I’ll give into it and never be seen again.
It’s not really.
Start with just Bob’s mods suite then.
That alone just adds the extra ores, and not too much else. Really good introduction to an easier overhaul mod. Takes.about 60 hours to finish at a first go
I’m trying to do space exploration and Jesus it has a hell of a curve, especially if you’re playing alone
Yeah, I was tempted to try K2 + SE, but the last ounce of my sanity kicked in at the last second. It’s definitely next up, though.
I’ll call it a night in a few minutes. I need more iron…
It’s always cracktorio
No factorio would be this except its a positive review.

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.
Can confirm. I have been playing since the beta and I hate it, yet I keep coming back…
yeah. keep donating to russian businesses.
They need help. It’s literally the topic.
In case someone would like to know: I took this screenshot from the leaf blower revolution’s steam page
Wtf… The review gets a whole other dimension with this knowledge… It’s more the “help me” of an addicted now…
What did you think this was – with 3750 hours of playtime on record?
Somebody grinding hours…
Yeah, like DNU said, something more grindy. Or something difficult. Somorelike PoE where you can play thousandsof hours without seeing everything or knowing everything. Or like Black Desert Online with its afk mechanics. Or a game with a lot rng like dwarc fortress or rimworld.
Or speedrunning stuff. But some kind of idle… 😅 indeed unexpected.
Well maybe it is because said games are my timesinks… Even though I haven’t played any game as long as he/she did.

Was willst du?
ich will, dass ihr mir vertraut
Just one more turn, man. That’s all I need. Then Ghandi will pay. C’mon man I’ll go to sleep right after, I promise.

Motherfucker nuked my capital I’ll spell his name any way I goddamn please
Better give him some respect if you don’t want your cities razed to the fucking ground.
Path of exile? Never played it but seems right.
I have 3800+ hours on POE according to steam… I hate this metric
Pure addiction. Pls help.
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…
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.
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.
After some time all the caves are the same though…
That’s why there’s mods! Also, if the caves get samey, you can always go end-busting or build a new project.
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.
Elite: Dangerous has lots of players that complain all day and play all night. Probably EVE too
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
RimWorld, I have hundreds of hours of playtime, (not including my previous 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
Greenhouses are my weird obsession. Probably not very useful for most colonies, but just look so nice.
EVE Online
I just started playing again after 9 years 😐
Miss the pain?
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.

*They’re the same picture
(the dark fog update is seriously sick tho)
I haven’t played since before the update. It’s cool? I was worried it would take away from the main fun of the game. Is this not the case?
i don’t think so, but you can either entirely disable it, or make them passive, or tune it to your liking; there’s tons of customizability in the difficulty!
it’s honestly some pretty smart design in how they handled it! you should give it a try, see if you like it!
one little beginners tip that’s kinda important: they always choose the shortest path to your base (so pretty much any structure you build) and they attack based on your power consumption! (there’s a little widget that tells you when a wave is coming)

Dwarf Fortress
Tell me about your favorite dwarf
She died doing what she loved - building an intricately smoothed Elf caravan killbox, decoratively carved with masterwork pictures of dead trees.
Tragically her lover pulled the lever while she was still inside.
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.
God, I hated that game. No days off, because I have to fucking feed my dinosaurs, that up until I caught them, knew exactly how to find food.
The only saving grace on it was that if you were on private servers that were mostly PVE, you could just capture them all in cryopod and then you only had to log in like once every two or three weeks instead of every 3 days cuz all you have to do is generator
I did all my time in single player because if I got to some dumb unoptimized/bug I could cheat my way back because fuck them. I too will not buy this BS 1.5 either. They had their chance. I’m still bitter that instead of fixing the base game they got dollar signs in their eyes and just started releasing dlc.
Everyone was pissed when they started putting out DLC in a busted ass early access so they just went all ‘mission accomplished’ and said the game was done.
Oldschool Runescape. Some 15000 hours down now…
Rimworld for me. I would only end a session when shit hit the fan.
