For me it was Terraria, Satisfactory, Tetris Effect Master Mode, Minecraft with Mekanism mod & CSGO / CS2 (almost 2000 hours in CS alone).

Edit: There are so many answers that I might only reply if I have something interesting to say. I will read all of your answers though. ๐Ÿ™‚

Bruh Factorio is a fantastic game

No doubt, it's a fun game, but not $30 fun.

Then again, my idea of game prices is a bit skewed. I don't think ANY game is worth $60. I buy all my games on sale, and for most of them, I wait until they're $20 or less before I buy.

At a full price of $30, I'd expect to eventually find it on sale for $5-10 if I waited long enough. But the developers don't plan to ever lower the price, which is a big negative for me. If I didn't get a copy for free, I'd probably still not own it.

As far as gameplay itself, I'm annoyed at the random swarms of bugs attacking my factories. I just want to build and create, but having to also defend from attack and then repair my stuff afterward... that makes Factorio frustrating for me. But that's my own personal opinion, I know that's what makes the game fun for so many others.

That's why I like Satisfactory so much. The wildlife is only aggressive if you bother them, and there aren't packs of them roaming around. You can relax and enjoy the atmosphere and get lost in your build process without being bothered.
