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 do this with a ton of open world games. I always like the scenery and want to enjoy the game but end up bored. Some do manage to keep me interested, I got through Horizon Zero Dawn eventually and enjoyed God of War.

I quite enjoyed the Horizon series! I found the world building and enemy design really kept my interest, even if the game follows the Ubisoft formula (though I admittedly do not play that many open world games, and thus lack that jadedness).

Now I'm partway into Forbidden West after a half year break post Zero Dawn, and my partner's just finished ZD. I can't state how much I enjoy shooting components off enemies without getting trampled into the ground, like shooting apples off a tree.
