What video game have you played the most, that you think is garbage and no one else should ever play? (self.asklemmy)

I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it's a bad game. Don't do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you'll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent's cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

Does RSF Richard Burns Rally count? An amazing simulation with extremely accurate physics and a massive assortment of stages and cars, but it's also absolutely brutal and unforgiving. I suppose it's fairly realistic as a result, but it's more sim than game at that point. It's a ton of fun to improve at, but the chances of cracking any of the online leaderboards is fairly slim (unless you spend an absurd amount of time training).

Is that the game I've seen streamers playing recently where the races are like 12 hours, and if another player taps you, you are out of the race for like an hour?

Saw an utter hearbreak of a clip where a team of 2 was about to pass into first and was going back and forth really dramatically, when a car passing from a faster division clipped em and just like that, 30 minutes into an 8 hour race, they had 0 chance of winning because they got flung into a wall and were out for over an hour.

Like that contest seemed super hype where they were trying to pass in a super realistic way, and the cars from other division seemed super cool. But 8 hours? And realistic repair times? Noooo thank you.
