Valheim, factorio, timberborn gave much more hours of fun than some expensive games like GTA 5.

Yeah but how much does factorio end up costing you? And not in money.

Timberborn is a lot of fun, you can build some crazy worlds when you reach the end game.

Timberborn is a definite favorite of mine. Whiskerwood looks very similar. I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, but I’m thinking I may like it more than Timberborn in the long-run due to having more interesting end-game goals to work toward.

I played whiskerwood for the first time recently. Also thought it would be similar to timberborn but it is very different. You have manage the whiskers individually to give them the right job if you want them to be efficient. I like that you can build underground and that in later game you’ll be able to use belts so I’m looking forward to discovering that system, also the steam power stuff.

Good to know. I’ve checked out some Let’s Plays of it, and the differences still look fun. I guess I better get on it.

Their current full price is slightly over $30, but Rimworld, Stellaris, and Satisfactory are in this bucket for me too.

Stellaris full price is like $300 for the whole game , sure I literally got the base game for free, but even buying expansions on sale, I wouldn’t be surprised if I’ve spent over $100 on Stellaris, and I don’t have all the expansions as I only buy them on sale.

Paradox is boon and burden to the 4X community.

That’s a good point. I typically wait for massive sales before buying games and DLCs, but I’ve still probably spent more than I care to admit on Stellaris. The enjoyment per dollar ratio is definitely still way up there for me though.

Oh, definitely. I still chuckle occasionally when I’m reminded by my Dungeon Defender friends that they cannot fathom playing a single game that takes weeks to finish. Meanwhile I’m laughing in EvE Online veteran. Titan Construction V took 8 months to train.
