Recently I completed Crossing Souls. It’s a game overloaded with 80s nostalgia. The soundtrack is from two composers. The first has 80s synth tracks while the other providers John Williams / Amblin like scores as the story of a group of young friends and feels like a movie from that time.
It’s a novel hybrid of two genres, so the recommendations are all going to be split between them. The best (western) turn based tactics game is likely XCOM 2: War of the Chosen. The best deckbuilder card game is likely Slay the Spire.
If you want a tactics game that retains the social/character aspects, you’re looking for Fire Emblem: Three Houses, but that’s on the switch.
I feel that the line is not nearly as sharp. I play a lot of freeform games for extrinsic reasons. Building a cool castle in Minecraft is probably an extrinsic motivation, for example.
When I played Minecraft a whole ton, It was because I was on a server, and I was motivated by impressing my friends, a clear extrinsic motivation.
In WoW, I’m largely motivated to master the game so that I can keep up with my boyfriend, running 20+ dungeons and Heroic (soon Mythic) raids. Another extrinsic motivation.
Etterna, a rhythm game is probably my most intrinsically motivated game. I play it mostly because I enjoy the feeling of mastering a new skill. But even that is extrinsic to some degree, because what most clearly shows my skill? The game praising me with AAs and big streaks. I wouldn’t enjoy Etterna without those things, so I wouldn’t play a gradeless version.

Definitely try out Dorf Romantik on Steam. It’s a non stressful landscape puzzle game. It can also be challenging when you want everything perfect, but it doesn’t need to be.
MMOs were always my thing. I’m almost glad I don’t know exactly how much time I buried into World of Warcraft back in the day. I haven’t touched it in 15 years and it’s probably still in the lead. I play a fair bit of FFXIV these days but not like I did WoW. Asheron’s Call 2 was a big part of my life for a long time but it’s been offline most of my life.
Among recent games I’ve actively played for years, Rocket League and Minecraft are for sure at the top.
I guess I can't know for sure, but I'd say it has to be Minecraft. I wish there was a way to see the hours I've spent in the Java Edition of the game. If it's not Minecraft though, my second guess would be Rocket League. When I add up the hours across the platforms I've played on, it comes out on top by a small margin.
For a single game it's Factorio. Steam has me at around 1600 hours.
For a series it's gotta be Civilization. I've been playing since I was in fifth grade. I'd go over to my friend's house when he wasn't home to play Civ I. I'd spend entire weekends in college playing Civ II and III. I had to have my GF hide my Civ V disk so I wouldn't miss deadlines. And now I'm on a full playthrough of all the new civs in the latest DLC.
