DayZ and minesweeper. DayZ has probably the best replayability over any other game I’ve played. On top of that it’s also the game that gives me adrenaline rush like no other game has. DayZ is highly underrated and I highly recommend it in 2024 as it just keeps on giving.
It was close for me between ONI and Darkest Dungeon, but I've basically "solved" DD to the point where I need 120 (I counted) constantly rotating mods to even have anything to challenge me.... I'm not sure I'd ever "finish" ONI! I feel like i've barely scratched the surface, and i've put in hundreds of hours. (I love them both, though.)
That it's cute and has so many little random thoughtful details like how the hatch eggs are as big as the hatches (ouch) definitely helps too.
Honestly, I'd be pretty sad with zero city-builders. And Rain World is non-negotiable, hahah.
Warframe is a good one. After 4000 hours I got burnt out of some of the things it does poorly and haven’t played in a year, but overall it’s fun with crazy new content on a regular basis for free.
Terraria has far more depth than I ever expected, and way more than that added since I last played. This game can sustain a player for ages.
I would say Satisfactory but I did actually get tired of it for a while. Itching to go back with the 1.0 release though. I love it but the two above have better longevity.
Beam.NG would be one just because it covers nearly every driving discipline and the other would probably be Cyberpunk. It’s not even that Cyberpunk is my favorite, but it has so much content in it at this point that it would keep me busy for years.
I really wanted to fit Crusader Kings 3 in there, but I think ultimately these two cover all the bases, and have an amazing modding community to keep it fresh and interesting.
