I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it's a bad game. Don't do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you'll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent's cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

Marvel Strike Force. I've never played a mobile game before it and I don't think I ever will. But it took up brainspace and time during the COVID isolation, and I put in enough money that I feel I can't quit now.

But don't do it. It's a time suck, money suck, and it's repetitive.

Can say the same for Marvel Contest of Champions. Never spent money but oh boy did I waste precious time playing that for several years and it was, if I'm being honest, rarely enjoyable. Most of the time it was just compulsive.
