Brain says bad. Because I’ll be there, working on trying to get a new shiny ship and then the brain is like… “You make 40$ an hour overtime. That’s a lot more ship than doing this.” or "instead of checking in on your skill queue every day for two years to make sure it’s optimal $300 worth of plex and you have your dream toon. "
And yeah… I know myself. I need to avoid games that make that lil voice pop up.
I mean… in eve you were allowed to straight up buy perfect characters or skill injectors, then the isk to buy a ship. So you could have a newbie with the same character power as a 3 year old player.
My brain does not like grinding games with strong P2W aspects, it messes with me.
If you like randomly made stories, you can try Rimworld.
You will quickly find yourself asking very difficult questions. Is taking on the cripple something you can afford to do? Is using medicine on a less valuable colonist smart? Do you let some of your colonists starve, or start a war with friendly neighbors? Cannibalism will make your neighbors hate you and some of your colonists might rebel over it, but that’s better than some of them starving… right?
