For me it’s Team Fortress 2. $100 total spent on hats and the Orange Box back in the day, 4200 hours plus of fun, meaning 2.3¢ AUD per hour. Initially I thought DotA2 would be my best but it turns out I’ve spent a lot more money in that game than I thought…
My worst is God of War: Ragnarok. Bought it full price for $95 AUD, only played 2 hours and hated it, meaning $47.50 AUD per hour.
Most: Vampire Survivors or Balatro for low price Indie games. Destiny 2 for AAA where I must have had close to 3000 hours at the end of The Final Shape (TFS).
Least: Anthem. I don’t remember if I pre ordered this game or not but my Destiny teammates definitely pressured me into getting it day one.
This was the game that convinced me live service games are a dead end. Just an absolute skeleton of a game you could tell was rushed to release. We played the 8 hour or so campaign and did a few of the post campaign missions and that was it. During all of that the game constantly crashed and the gameplay loop was DOA.
I always comment that Anthem made all the same mistakes that the original Destiny made with lack of content, story, and gameplay loop… 5 years after Destiny 1 released AND 2 years after Destiny 2 fumbled its launch.
Destiny 2 at least got a few more really good years out of it up to TFS then went off a cliff and was all but shut down this year. Kind of proves my point that live service games are a dead end.
