What video game have you played the most, that you think is garbage and no one else should ever play? (lemmy.world)

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?

Path of Exile. You will watch a cool new budget friendly league starter guide on YouTube and follow it religiously. You will install or update half a dozen 3rd-party tools for essential QoL. You will ignore the new league mechanics until maps while speedrunning the same unskippable story for each character. You will hide most loot and avoid risky item crafting. You will pickup currency to buy your gear wholesale from other players. You will reroll your character or rq if your build has no defense or bossing damage or becomes too expensive due to popularity (Mathil effect). You will repeat this cycle in 3-4 months.

I've got around 5k hours in poe and it's been a lot more hate than love the last few times I played a league; haven't logged into standard in ages.

I have recently been trying Last Epoch. It seems to really pull-in a lot of good traits from similar ARPG's. Still has a few bugs from time to time, as it's still in beta.
