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?

No Man's Sky.

No, I'm not one of the fellas that fell for the hype. I didn't preorder it. I started playing around 2020, after many patches and updates, my expectations were very low. Even then, I was disappointed, because everything is half baked. I think ~10h is more than enough to see everything there is to see, then it's all pure repetition.

I still got almost 500h in it, and check in once in a while, but it's not "fun", it's just cheap comfort food.

You know I feel like I was the only person in the world who liked NMS when it came out. I didn’t preorder but I bought it within a month or two of lauch. It was fun to just wander around those giant planets not really doing much. I’ve actually liked it less since some of the big updates.

You and me both. NMS happened to show up at a time in my life when I really needed peace and quiet, so the slow pace and solitude of the gameplay was great.
