Runescape because its the only game ive played alot of that actually can be played forever without end

[–] deep_space_rhyme@alien.top 2 points 1 year ago

Dwarf fortress, but can we wait until adventure mode is implemented

[–] kimi_cakes@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Pokemon Go. It's fun and keeps me active!

[–] joeguy421@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Same terraria for me. So many good mods and replayability

[–] Ricocheting_Potato@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Factorio, 3k hours in and at least as much ahead of me

[–] Ashen_one933@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Dark Souls. It taught me about the life.

[–] BlueMikeStu@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Easily Final Fantasy Tactics for me.

I've done the calculations before, but the TL;DR is that one challenge run I enjoy, the Tactics Double Dare, has 116,000+ variations just for the basic game without using cheats to use special, enemy or ally specific Job Classes.

Even an emulated run using frameskips to speed it up would probably take 20-30 hours on average, meaning that to do all the variations would take just under 332 years of play to do them all. That's actual play time, mind you, not including necessities like sleeping, eating, generating an income, interacting with friends and family or playing anything else.

With cheats to allow for NPC/Enemy Job Classes, it easily reaches into the millions of potential variations, with an equally absurd playtime.

Halo reach, istg I’ve never gotten tired of it

[–] Ok_Zebra_35@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Heroes of Might and Magic 3. It's well over 20 years old and still my all time favorite game.

[–] FrankOceanObama@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Oxygen Not Included

[–] Shepherdsfavestore@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Football Manager. Can always do a different save or just keep one going forever

[–] KasaneTetoFan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Tetris

I might go crazy but at least I'll have my funny little blocks to keep me company.

[–] Secret_Cow_5053@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bloodborne. Never gets old.

Final Fantasy XIV. Been playing it for nearly 6-7 years now.

[–] _Goose_@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Mass Effect Legendary Edition

[–] Greatwhite675@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Doom

Limitless modding and customization.

[–] DavidHallack@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

DND 3.5 with a table of 8 players and all of us know how to gm and have stories for people to play.

[–] LiwanPie@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Peak tabletop gaming right there. Eight is way too many, though. Max five players.

My group transitioned to Pathfinder 2e. It's no 3.5, but the QoL improvements are nice.

Good choice, Terraria would be my pick too.

[–] araknoman@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Arkham knight, been playing almost daily simce release.

Fantastic combat, stealth, gliding, driving, and TANK.

Basically any vibe I’m in the mood for is covered in one game, and there’s buttloads of challenges to keep me occupied

[–] Marauding_Llama@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Gemstone IV

Been playing it off and on for the last 28 years.

[–] lehulkdeluxe@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] YouAreNot_TheGuy@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Final Fantasy XIV

[–] fulento42@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Final Fantasy XI

[–] Karpulltunnel@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

retail wow, because rn i am playing it forever

[–] cringedismemberment@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

RDR2, the amount of content is legendary and I could spend hours just looking at the beautiful environment.

[–] Chableezy@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Botw it never gets old

[–] GearsOfFate@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If MMOs count, Eve. I've been enjoying it off and on for 15 years now and I feel I've still barely scratched the surface of the content. Plus, the constantly changing galaxy, sovereignity, and mechanics keeps things interesting.

If they don't, The Long Dark. I love the atmosphere and art style, and every day can be a battle to survive the quiet apocalypse.

[–] Tripdrakony@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Minecraft. The way you can change the entire gameplay via mods to be something entirely different is insane.

[–] Clickalz@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Doom PS1. The game that made me realise what gaming could be.

[–] Such-Conclusion3715@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shadow of war, as most fun thing in this is not story but mechanics

[–] araknoman@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Combat mechanics? Or nemesis system?

I’m mainly an arkham player and recently swapped to shadow of mordor (first one?), and find it a bit slower than I’m used to

Loving seeing how the games have influenced each others’ gameplay though :)

[–] Such-Conclusion3715@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Arkham, huh? I guess I should try it a bit later. Right now I m grinding first class captains

If mods are allowed definitely Skyrim

[–] bakalaka25@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] Glittering-Let9989@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Skyrim, literally home for me, back when I was 12 and now still

[–] laorejadebangcock@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

At this moment, starfield, maximum durability

[–] iiNexius@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If there will always be players, World of Warcraft Vanilla. Otherwise Diablo 2 for the single player aspect.

[–] isodal@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] Rudokhvist@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Heroes of Might and Magic III

[–] MustacheC4shst4sh@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Definitely UNCHARTED!!! Drakes Deception
