    Quest 64 is my favorite “bad” game. It was a meme for like a week around here, I miss those days.

    I honestly loved Forspoken. I even bought a second physical copy in case something happens to the original.

      One day I’ll get around to playing Nomifactory CE. I’ve somehow played the base one twice over the past five years.

      I’ve been so alienated from friends playing the most popular game on the planet in multiplayer because I can’t play Vanilla for shit. Not since 1.2.5 probably.

      I’ll play no Minecraft for two years and then immediately nolife a modpack for two months.

      Good shit. The best value game I have ever bought, no question about it.

    Rimworld, Vicky 2, Ck2, Hoi4, Eu4, Fallout 1 2 3 and New Vegas, Morrowind, Skyrim, and currently Vintage Story. My tastes are damned good profligates can you say the same?!

    Edit: Also Total Warhammer.

      I have the same list but Caves of Qud also sucked some life out of me. Damn good RPG though.

    All I see are awesome game recommendations, thanks everyone! Except for Stardew Valley… that’s my game. I love it but I hate it for reasons mentioned already.

      Came here to also say Elite. They’re actually doing updates now, but I still would never recommend to anyone despite devoting so much time to it.

      I keep going back to ONI to try and get into its endgame. But I quickly start getting kicked around in a back alley by the temperature stuff. Like trying to figure out colony-wide temperature control.

    Second Life. If you could call it a game.

    I started “playing” it in 2006. Went through long periods of not playing it… but I always come back… and it’s always worse

      Holy shit is it still around? I remember playing that around the same period and going to all of the servers with free shit and occasionally coming across some weird sex server lmao.

        when you say server, I think you’re talking about regions (colloquially called “sims or simulators” in game) while its true they do run on servers, usually 4-16 regions packed onto a single server… its easier to think of them as islands of virtual real estate, some are separate individual tiny islands of 256x256 meters, whereas others are joined to others of the same size. all of course, seperate from the continents which are owned by the company but land can be rented and such

        privately owned land people can do whatever they want on it provided it isnt breaking law or TOS, and theres some weird shit that falls through the cracks.

        the concept of SL is fascisnating, how it all works in the concept of a digital world, its been doing the metaverse 20 years before Mark Zuckerberg got the idea. the problem is, people are fucking freaks. and the metaverse is as freaky as they are.

      I used to play yeaaaars ago doing custom scripting work and what not as a teenager to make extra money. I got on recently and it just seemed dead. Maybe I just forgot how to navigate, but I literally felt like I couldn’t find people to even interact with.

        the technology has improved tenfold, the game looks and runs so different now that its virtually unrecognizable, but the communities are shit, the user count is at best half as many as it was in the late 00s to early 10s. and most of the people online are either just parked in a shitty club, usually AFK, hiding in their private land, innnocuously buying stuff for their house or character, lagging the place up with scripted farms and such… a very small number of worthwhile game / activity and roleplay communities (RP is still basically a game…) … and most everyone else is probably e-banging…
