I always somehow find my way back to playing No Man’s Sky. No matter what I do, game I play, activity inside or outside of gaming, NMS is always there to play and chill. Sometimes I go on creative and spend a week amassing the perfect color coordinated team of ships, crew, frigates, and freighter.
That and every content update we get for free!
Probably the first time I just got completely engrossed in a game.
I remember spending crazy amounts of time in Tenpenny Tower at first because I got so engrossed in the apocalyptic environment and freaked out by the ghouls that I didn’t want to leave.
Also got me interested in music from the crooners, big bands, etc, and that led me to getting super close with my grandparents. That led to some of the happiest years of my life before they passed.
Same! Fallout 3 was the first game I was completely absorbed into. The world is so vast and rich, even the empty parts. Absolutely incredible.
