I have the most hours in Warframe, but Factorio is on a different level. If you’re anywhere on the spectrum, it is pure crack cocaine. The only reason I haven’t bought the DLC is because I know it’ll consume a month of my free time.
By the way, Warframe 1999’s soundtrack fucking slaps.
Space Age is totally worth it though
Can confirm. It’s the only game I play at this point.
Finally got to Fulgora. I want that mech suit.
I’m currently avoiding fixing Gleba, so I’m making an Epic Mech Suit.
I skipped straight to fulgora first! Then vulcanus, then gleba. by far gleba was a rough factory style for me to adjust to… Then I tackled aquilo 😬 Good lord, this one is rough!
Loving every minute, though. So satisfying to find better ways to build in the different environments!
A month? That is not enough :(
When they say a month of free time, the really mean a month of neglecting the laundry, dishes, vacuuming, showering, and cooking at home. And probably also a month of being late to work too.
I’ve had Friday evening sessions that were ended by the morning sun. I wasn’t kidding about the crack simile. Time is just a suggestion when you have an assembly line to complete.
Ignore the expansion and just free base Space Exploration
After playing with trains in factorio, then just staring at them go in pure ecstasy for 10s of minutes. I am now convinced I’m much further on the spectrum than I thought.
It’s not a bad game but Rimworld is destroying my life right now.
same
unrelated but i just noticed that the playtime was 1234, that’s neat
1,123.4hours*
NERD ALERT
I wasn’t sure if you could read the image clearly. Nerd out!
Now you need to make it 1,234.5 hours and stop.
I should get tested or something.
I had to ban myself from that game as I’d fall off the face of the earth for weeks at a time
Definitely mine too. It doesn’t even run faster than 1x… which is sucky slow but my own fault for having too many livestock animals to support my ~60 pawns… (peaceful gets very out of control if you let it) but now I have an outpost mod and as soon as all my kids are adults, most of them are gone.
Good choice !
The factory must expand so the factory can expand so the factory can expand so the factory can expand so the factory…
The factory must grow
I am so glad I bought that game before the steam release, which means most of my hours are untracked.
cookie clicker
fucking useless, highly addictive
my phones version is about as old as my cousin lol
Have you tried Stimulation?
My eyes started hurting and my phone got very hot.
I have the newest best iPhone and it crashed at the stonk market
This was fun. Then my phone started acting up.
I kind of miss when No Man’s Sky was an endless, empty expanse. That sense of loneliness and futility was an emotional experience that it doesn’t have now. It’s become a much better game, no doubt, but putting time and careful planning into that long crawl towards the galactic centre felt right.
Oh don’t worry it still is that
It has an empty universe mode in one of the updates
I’m split between Factorio and Dwarf Fortress.
Give Songs of Syx a try. One guy, who developed the game in a shed in Poland so he could get away from his family. You can try the “demo” which is the full game just one version behind. Once he gets tired of developing it he said he’ll make it open source. Think dwarf fortress but you’re capable of having a population of thousands. Oh, and nevermind the race riots or cannibalism.
I went ahead and grabbed the demo and I will give a try, thanks for the info!
Modded minecraft isnt the worst ever
I started making games to make sure its not
One day I’ll get around to playing Nomifactory CE. I’ve somehow played the base one twice over the past five years.
I’ve been so alienated from friends playing the most popular game on the planet in multiplayer because I can’t play Vanilla for shit. Not since 1.2.5 probably.
I’ll play no Minecraft for two years and then immediately nolife a modpack for two months.
Good shit. The best value game I have ever bought, no question about it.
There was a shitty f2p MMO called GunZ online once upon a time. It was so badly programmed that glitches literally became the primary gameplay loop.
I loved it. For those few that could get into it, it was a unique heaven of fps and fighting game that filled a void an over caffeinated teen with nothing but hyper focus and time didn’t know they had.
Also just ridiculously horny people.
Don’t call GunZ shitty! I’ll double butterfly your face, or something. It’s been a while.
Fuuuuuuck dude haven’t thought about that game in a decade
I remember that, Nexon?
Also just ridiculously horny people.
So, average MMO player
My ex used to play that game religiously. Something about weapon swapping, butterflies, double butterflies, etc…
Factorio. Do i need to say more?
Why aren’t you tending to your factory?
My factory is paused. I found Derail Valley Simulator, and have been absolutely loving driving trains
There was this spreadsheet masquerading as a space conquest 4X game called Stars!
I just looked this up and I’m definitely gonna try it out.
Quest 64 is my favorite “bad” game. It was a meme for like a week around here, I miss those days.
As a kid I was so thirsty for RPGs without fully realising it that I made way too much of an attempt to like Quest.
Me being in love with Hellgate: London, Fate (WildTangent), and Warframe be like
Oh man, Hellgate: London. That’s a blast from the past.
I still fire it up from time to time, runs great for me
Did you buy it from steam or you still own a CD copy?
I have the collectors edition on DVD, you put in a retail key and boom, installs super quick on modern machines
All I remember from that was the insanely cool art/concept and memory leaks. Did they fix the memory leaks or do we all just have enough RAM for it to not matter?
I never had the memory leak issue, but it can use a bit over 1 GB of RAM for me at peak, which nowadays isn’t that much.
Well thanks for sharing! I actually found the Dvd and installed it again thanks to your comment. What a blast! I love it.
Hellgate London was such fun, unique hybrid twist on ARPG and looter shooter, I was sad when I heard it was shutdown.
I woulda played it more if I had known it was about to be shutdown. There were some crash bugs and sudden difficulty spikes that made me quit, thinking Id come back to it later. That later never happened.
Yeah it’s a shame the official multiplayer didn’t last long. There’s some fan projects with that but none of them scratched the same itch for me. There were a few patches for the game and they’re still available, but the difficulty spikes are still there, it gets grindy in the last couple sections of the game.
My last words will be “Just one… more… turn”
Followed by Ghandi cackling as he unleashes a nuke on your Civ.
I will not stand for this Robot Unicorn Attack slander.
sits carefully
…that’s better.
That game and one scene from Scrubs revived Erasure’s synth pop briefly in the 2000s
🎵And live in harmony harmony oh Lord!🎵
I just spent 20 hours on the demo for the new game roadcraft. I’m just pushing dirt around in a tractor like I’m playing with Tonka trucks back when I was 5. I haven’t really done anything interesting, just leveled dirt. Anyway, ill probably put in another 6 hours today after work.
