Addiction

what is the most addictive video game you have ever played?

Easily Pokemon and Ragnarok Online, my first ever mmo I played, eons ago. For a Pokemon game its possible for me to log hundreds of hours before I even finish.

Oh geez, I remember Ragnarok. I played that absoutely to death way back when. Everquest was another favorite.


As for my own most addicting game, I'd say Minecraft at this point. The sheer amount of time I've put into it.... I'm not sure I'd want to know just how much it is.

I totally agree with Minecraft being addictive >,.,> though, I don't think i can call what I play Minecraft anymore. I play modded minecraft and actually the clan I'm part of (from other games) actually have a Direwolf20 1.6.4 server which i tend to play on.

though I have to say, along with Minecraft, other games I find addictive are Warframe, League of Legends, Smite and that's it i think :L

World of Warcraft and The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask.
I never had any other game in my life that took every single piece of my time and dedication as those two games have in the past.

KOTOR (Knights of the Old Republic) and Mass Effect are some of my most addictive games. Hell, I'm about to start about my half dozenth playthrough of the Mass Effect trilogy. I've seen about every possible story scenario at this point, but the different class options make it almost infinite.

I've made sure to avoid WoW and Minecraft because I want to remember what the sky looks like. The world of MMO's is one rabbit hole I just can't go down.

GTA 5, really. and i don't even have my own copy.

i'd go to my friends house and play it with her brother. (mind you, that is not the only reason i went.............) it got scratched, and was unplayable for a while up until recently but i have not been there since it was fixed.

Bitblocks, a Tetris clone for Android. Tetris in general is like crack for me, and Bitblocks just happens to be one of the best mobile versions there is, so I nearly always have it with me.

Jezzball is super addictive too, but it's for Windows 3.1 and none of its clones play exactly like it, so when I want my fix it can be kind of a pain. XD I have my fingers crossed that someday, someone will make a decent cross-platform clone that plays like the original and not an approximation.

As far as more "serious" games, I find I just don't have the attention to stick with them for more than about a week, though I will often come back to my old favorites multiple times.

FTL is a drug.

I've been struggling with being addicted to Warcraft since April of 2008.

I've taken many breaks since then, the longest being from late November of 2012 to June of 2014 (I closed my account, was in almost a complete breakdown at the time) and since then I re-bought the game and made a new account. I re-installed it today and I have no idea why. It's like I don't want to play it yet I want to play it.
