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?

I like a lot of work in games, that's actually why I wanted to give it a shot. Not fun, though. Terrible slog. What really ruined it was they took the concept and made it too big. It couldn't just be a game about looking at janky infrastructure and reporting it ...they HAD to inject this entire narrative with shady business men from the past and other unnecessary world building. But it forced them to make the game overstay it's welcome by at least 20 hours imo, just to tie up the narrative.

I better stop ranting while I can. I played it over 5 years ago...I've clearly been scarred lol
