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?

Diablo 2. Starcraft and Destiny 2. By far I have played more than any other single game. Diablo 2. I played more than destiny and starcraft combined.

World of Warcraft is by far one of the worst games ever made. Why people think it's good and why so many people play it. I have no idea.

I loved WoW when it first came out. It was a nice big world and I love exploring. And meeting people from around the world was nice too. But I found it way too grindy and left at around level 27 or so and never returned.

I think it's really just addiction and not knowing any other MMORPG. For many players it's the first or even only game they know.
