What are your favorite 1000+ hour games? (self.games)

One thing I have struggled with lately is finding good games to play. I bounce around from game to game trying to enjoy it but it just doesn't scratch the itch like it used to. For example, one of my favorites was old school RuneScape, but it hasn't really been giving me the same enjoyment that it used to. So then I would open up World of Warcraft, Destiny 2, just playing a little bit of each game. Think maybe I need some new games to play but it's tough to find them these days.

So what are your favorite 1000+ hour games?

Factorio, it's fun from the first minute but you'll still be learning new things after 1000 hours.

Me: Ooooooohhhh, ok. I know how logistic networks work.

2 hrs later

Me: wtf? Production stopped. Why does this one belt have 5 different materials. Oh....idk how chests work. That's OK I'll simplify it until it works.

suns up and birds chirping

Me: ok, ok. So it's working, but i dont know why.

800 hrs in and I still underestimate the space I need. Best 30 bucks I've ever spent.

200 hours in for me and I just learned you can put gates over train tracks. 🤯 Found out by reading the in game manual that I was too proud to read beforehand. So uhm… read the manual.
