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 think idle games are interesting to mindfully experience. They - at least good ones - demonstrate the influence of external motivation, of progression.

    Outside of that… Yeah. There’s a fine line of experiencing theme and gameplay Design, and falling into mindless simple number scaling and waiting.

      This is why Universal Paperclips is my favorite idle game, maybe my favorite game ever. It has an ending and you can even interpret a story from it. Definitely worth playing once.
