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.

Oxygen not included. I spent so much brain beating that game, then wanted to play more.
I keep going back to ONI to try and get into its endgame. But I quickly start getting kicked around in a back alley by the temperature stuff. Like trying to figure out colony-wide temperature control.
PlanetSide 2 for me, easily 8k hours into that game. Around 5k on my steam account alone.
So sad to see it's still slowly collapsing, but I've not been on since the AU servers shut down years ago and the hackers took over the Asia server.
Ah, I have fond memories of PS2. I slowly stopped playing when I started finding less and less coherent platoons working together. I'd join squads that were spread all over the map. It had so many fun things with it too, but somewhere along the way I started losing interest.
Spelunky 2
Honorable mentions Noita and The Binding of Isaac
(Thats about 3/3 of my life)
cookie clicker
fucking useless, highly addictive
my phones version is about as old as my cousin lol
When I was in college it was WOW. I have soooo many hours in that game. But it also helped fix a lot of issues I had with social anxiety. I went from basically never interacting with people in that game to being elected to run a 60 person guild. I didn't even campaign they just nominated me for it when the previous GM left. It did a lot to help me feel like I could be normal. Then I got a job and a GF and didn't have time to play as much anymore.
These days it's Warframe but I don't have enough free time to really get into video games like I used to anymore.
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
Eve online took a lot from me , but it gave back a lot more .. i think everyone who plays it is on the spectrum, no other explanation tbh
Quest 64 is my favorite "bad" game. It was a meme for like a week around here, I miss those days.

I have been collecting shinies in Pokémon Scarlet (140 so far) but my cartridge just died so now I’m beating PLA.
Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts and Sword of the Stars 2.
part of Sword of the stars 2 is even now it sometimes gets so laggy that you can't finish a game. You just at some point declare that you've snowballed enough and can't be beat anymore.
Hundreds of hours.
Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts is at least getting better now that the devs have abandoned it and modders are taking over.
Me being in love with Hellgate: London, Fate (WildTangent), and Warframe be like

Followed by Ghandi cackling as he unleashes a nuke on your Civ.
This one particular rp server on San Andreas Multiplayer
World of Tanks, which is pretty funny considering the image.
War Thunder, if your 'tism is weapons grade and a national security risk.
How many leaks were there ? War Thunder forums are next level military security and intel threat ... weapons grade autism

"Worst". Idk, Satisfactory is pretty great.
Deep Rock Galactic is a very good game that doesn't deserve this slander (except Season 3 which has given me actual nightmares)
