Sugar & Sins 156 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Well I've played World of Warcraft since its release, but without counting that probably Dark Souls, no matter how much you get pissed off at that game, you always crawl back to it...

Krosp I 114 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Three-way tie between Phantasy Star Online, Final Fantasy XI and Katawa Shoujo. I think I spent the last three weeks solid in Yamaku. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Sejong 856 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Another addicting game is Age of Empires II and the expansion, I can spend hours on this game, and I have installed this game on every PC I ever had, I first played this game back when if first came out in 2000, it belonged to my father, a year later when the Conquerors expansion was released I got my own Age of Empires II, and I have played it ever since, my brother is still addicted to this game too, we would spend hours playing the game together, we would both typically play the Britons, and if we were real bored we would play the campaigns, I can see that there are Age of Empire bronies, because I have seen fan made parodies of ponies in Age of Empires, which I think is pretty spectacular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discordian 6,003 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I actually got pretty addicted to Civilization II the first time I played it. I've been meaning to get a new Civilization in the hopes the same thing happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtore 2,766 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 World of Warcraft. A fair bit of my life was spent on it, but it fortunately never became an addiction. I played it more because my friends played it (this was back in vanilla) and we had a fair bit of fun. Interest started dropping a bit after the dark portal expansion was released, to my knowledge everyone's moved on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luna the Great of all the Russias 2,136 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) There are numerous games I have spent many hours on, but one game I don't think anyone else has mentioned so far is Europa Universalis IV. One way to describe EU4 is that it's basically a significantly more complicated version of Civilization. The timeline extends from 1444 to 1821 in the vanilla game and you can play as pretty much any country even if they're quite obscure. The game's focus is alternate history and it's interesting what happens in the world when playing in different EU4 games; this is why the game is addicting. The only real complaint I can think of is one minor bug and the fact that the developers have not made a tutorial that explained the game thoroughly enough. I would definitely recommend especially those who love the Civilization series to try EU4 if you're wanting a strategy game that is more complicated, more grand and more rewarding to play. In Civ, an average game took somewhere between 5-8 hours whereas in EU4 I would say I normally spend +35 hours on a single save. I don't think I could go back to playing Civ after playing EU4.

Sir Hugsalot 6,787 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 At one point, I think at the age of 15 I was pretty addicted to World of Warcraft. It greatly reduced my time with real life friends (even on online chats I was barely ever availible as I just kept playing all the time) and overall I got sucked into that game so much that only time when I went out was when I was going to school. It was certainly not great time for me and I am really happy that eventually I got bored with it, because when I've reached max level there was nothing to do for me (honestly, I suck at MMOs so I am terrible in PvP combat). That is the reason why I don't really like playing MMO games. I don't want this story to repeat and from what I see You have to spend a lot of time with such game to actually achieve something. I can't afford that or losing my social life again, especially now when I work and have engineering studies. Besides there are better games anyway IMO that don't require You to spend 3 hours in a dungeon lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clopinkie 86 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Well, I've played Animal Crossing: New Leaf all but 5 days since it was released, which will have been a year ago next month. It's such a simple, laid-back game, that I can easily find myself playing it for an hour at a time even if I only meant to play for 5-10 minutes. The only other game that I'd put up there is Sonic 2. I remember playing it back in the mid 90's on my Sega Genesis, and nearly 20 years later, I still enjoy playing it every few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LED Dasher 227 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 That would be Runescape for me. A friend of mine introduced it. I played for hours and hours just leveling up skills and making profit since that was the only way to effectively play the game. Looking back, it was just a waste of time and took away quite a bit of my social life (if I had a social life at all) during my high school years.

iDeltaVelocity 108 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) I say it's a mix between Tropico 4 and Dues Ex: Human Revolution. Tropico is so wonderfully hilarious and I love the sandbox feature, and Dues Ex is stealth-action in a really amazing environment and atmosphere.

Zen 4,860 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 No one's said pokemon? I can easily play any pokemon game for 100+ hours. Minecraft, Borderlands, and Fire Emblem Awakening are honorable mentions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazitaco 593 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 (edited) I'm quite addicted to Team Fortress 2 at the moment. stupid sexy Medic...... And then there's always any of The Sims games, GTA, and Minecraft. I'm usually a big fan of games with little or no direct goals. GTA and Minecraft especially, since its a big open world that you can roam and do whatever the hell you want.

Admiral Regulus 2,765 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 The last game that I played that I was really addicted to was MAG. It's been a while since I've felt any sort of magic when playing games. It just doesn't do it for me anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
