I discovered today that my most played game on Steam is Astronner with about 500 hours, and my second most played is Surviving Mars with about 500 hours.
Almost certainly World of Warcraft. I don't think I even liked it for most of the time I spent playing it. I've been annoyed about the overall direction since basically Cataclysm, and IMO Burning Crusade laid the foundations for most of my major complaints, although I didn't realize it at the time. I have decided that I'm opposed to the "expansions add a new tier of everything that invalidates old content" model of expanding games. If creating diverse content that is still enjoyable at level 60 is too hard, then maybe games just don't need to be expanded indefinitely past their original level caps.
1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
