i would really learn to play it but, i currently don't have any,

I think it would be cosmic rage, due to the fact that muds are easier to add new stuf to then audio games. This makes the game stay interesting.

For me Dawncaster.
Btw Ednun, I found that Dawncaster is much bigger than Slay the Spire in terms of content. Or do you use the game with mods to expand the content? If so, which mods are accessible with the Say the Spire mod?

quentinC playroom, It's not even a hard choice because for the last months I've never played anything else other than it and maybe a little bit hearthstone here and there, but not much. Not because playroom is exactly exciting, but because I use it as a chat client of sort.

If I can play just one game for the rest of my life, I rather don't play It at all. I have better  things  to do  than sit and play  something that endlessly repeat for the rest of my life

Oh boy... That depends. I can't narrow it down to one since no game has really hooked me forever, but yeah here are some possible answers I would've given at different times.

If you'd asked me in 2022, my answer would be Crazy Party. But that eventually got really boring because most of the people I played with fell into one of three categories: A, they were insanely competitive to the point where it quit being fun, B, they had insane skills and beat me every time, or C, they presented me absolutely no challenge. While I don't play every game with a hard core competitive spirit, I do enjoy friendly competition, and for this reason I  feel better when I'm with someone who's roughly equal to me, where the winner is impossible to guess.

If you'd asked me in 2023, I would've said Mist World. I played that day in and day out for 6 months, and then after that I took a week on and a week off for a long while too. But it got boring and not fun for several reasons. especially when you're at level 77 like me. It's getting to the point now where free play is an absolutely huge drag because crafting better gems is an absolute nightmare, and I'm just getting tired of each level taking so long to get through. I've only paid like $35 in my whole time of playing mw as well, (purchasing vip 3 times and buying a gift box for a friend), so yeah, I have no paid items other than the diamonds I got from vip... And yeah, we all know how much money they make off of people who can afford to buy a crap ton of gems and enhancing their eq to epic/heavenly/godblessed levels or what have you. That and some other things have pretty much turned me off from the game, which is a damn shame, because the stuff that initially intrigued me to death when I started still tugs at me to come back. I'd love to see the new areas and dungeons and hear the new sounds, and see if other dynamics happen later on, but at this point I can't be bothered to keep grinding. My char is still up though so we'll see, maybe after a long break I'll bounce back.

Right now, if I could only play one game, it would probably be something idle or incremental. A few months ago it would've been antimatter dimensions (until I got to the reality phase and ran into massive accessibility problems). Right now I'm alternating between Crafting Kingdom and Idle Iktah, and if I could only have one, it would probably be the latter since CK is, um, very grindy and monotonous too. But at least monotony is the actual nature of that game. Another game I'd consider putting on the table is Swordy Quest... But I've heard that is hella grindy too. I'm at level 20 ish now and I can already see myself getting bored with it. So yeah, I guess my final decision, at least at this moment, would be Idle Iktah. Now let's see how long I could go without regretting that choice

Only hades! hades! haaaaadeeeeeees!

I wanted to pick hades as well, but there are a few things I usually take into consideration when choosing something, including my mental health at the time of the playing. Given I have some kind of family issue and mental illness o deal with and the story can be triggering under certain circumstances on my bad days, certain scenes, for example, it may end up leaving me with 0 game to play that day instead of 1 and that's not what I want.

Daaaaaaawncaaaaaaaaasteeeeeer! HAHA!

Hades is an interesting one. I like it, but not sure there's enough there to keep me hooked. The story eventually runs out and you'd remember aall the lines of dialogue after a while. Heck I used to skip through a couple of irritating characters when I 1st started, Hipnose for example. I do love it though, really must complete the prologue at some point.

I would say either alter aeon or unofficial squaresoft mud. I keep coming back tto these muds and they both have lot of content and theey keep adding stuff to alter.

@23: I believe sidelines  is online, right? can you watch the match and read the commentary?
