Path of Exile. Hands down.
I just broke 1400 hours and still going strong. There's so much to do and so much to learn, and it's so good at rewarding grinding and keeping you chasing those incremental improvements. It's 100% replaced RuneScape for me.
I have broken 1000 hours with Cookie Clicker, Guild Wars 2, RuneScape, and Eve Online. I don't recommend the latter two anymore, but CC and GW2 still hold up.
Honorable mention to Factorio. I'm still in the hundreds but it's climbing.
I've been playing Hollow Knight this week. Working on Pantheon 5 for the last achievement. Made it to Traitor Lord last night. Best run yet!
I played it on 360 and again on the Steam release.
It's a better Skyrim, and shares a lot of Skyrim's flaws. Good combat, fun builds, and way too much to do. It was supposed to be an MMO but got cut down to a single player game, so there's boatloads of content stretched over a massive map.
I still go back and play it every now and then. It's fun.
I have the remaster, but haven't touched it yet.
I, too, will still be playing Factorio.
Also playing Factorio.
I think the joke is that it's a rating rather than a sample.
So this doctor gets 1* reviews vs the 4.5* doctors.
Swordcane.
I like light, fast weapons with dex builds, and it's the coolest transform out of the starter weapons.
Definitely Corruption of Champions. I still have a copy I fire up every now and then.
The sequel is alright as well, but doesn't quite scratch the same itch.
"Sometimes the things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most.
That people are basically good; that honor, courage, and virtue mean everything; that power and money, money and power mean nothing; that good always triumphs over evil; and I want you to remember this, that love... true love never dies.
You remember that, boy. You remember that. Doesn't matter if it's true or not.
You see, a man should believe in those things, because those are the things worth believing in."
The ball was a colorless wireframe. Color wasn't necessary for the scenario.
The person was genderless. Gender wasn't necessary for the scenario. They looked like a wire frame skeleton of a person.
The ball was roughly the size and density of the smallest size bowling ball.
Table surface was circular wireframe with four legs. Material wasn't filled in as I wasn't trying to model for friction.
My imagination doesn't tend to fill in unnecessary details. Too much wasted processing power. I also don't really envision things. Like, I don't "see" them in my head. I feel out the shapes and weights and other physical properties relevant to the scenario and let my intuitive understanding of physics roll the scenario forward.
Like, I know the ball rolled until it fell off the table, it fell some distance, then bounced off the floor three or four times with a sharp crack, as I filled in that the floor was concrete as soon as I needed to know how it would bounce, and the sound it would make filled in naturally from there.
I genuinely don't know whether how I think qualifies as aphantasia. I don't really imagine visual stimuli, but my imagination is very thorough for sound and feel.
Ooh. I've heard of Frostpunk and Tropico but never played them myself. If they're similar to Rimworld I need to check them out.
There's a moose loose in the hoose.
