I remember Eve Online. Excellent screen saver with spin the ship features.
I also never really got into it because it is pretty boring. Another reason is the time sink / grindfest this game is. If I want a job I will get one that pays me and not the other way around. That is ofc just my opinion and I send a glhf to everyone who enjoys playing EVE!
I played it while I was unemployed, it's great for that. You can spend your entire days in there, and forget about your problems in the real world.
I am not unfamiliar with what you are describing. Games can be of help in certain situations and as long as we don't get too lost in them and don't neglect our real life there is nothing wrong with it.
I just came off a bipolar induced manic phase. I hyper focused on eve and played it literally 8-12 hours a day for a few weeks.
The game is fun. It's a slow burn and a lot of the allure comes from the setting itself. I don't have nearly enough time to play anymore. Getting your ship into the pvp zone, finding a group, and finding a fight can easily take an hour.
