It was very enjoyable when I played it heavily in 2019 and it's even still fun right now. I don't play it more often then I used to. A lot of my guys are still invested in the game heavily, it's an addictive game. 

yup. i decided to leave the game and shut my acct. down and well...it got pretty lonely. 🤣

Hokko Life is similar to Animal Crossing. It appears to be on PC or Switch.

While i won't deny the quality of my time at portia it's a exellent game that i enjoyed my time with troughly i'd say my time at portia is more closer to harvest moon/story of seasons and stardew valley then the sims. Still you could do a lot worse because it's one of the best life simulation games out there with a fairly big world and interesting story, the only damn thing is that i ended up marrying that reporter instead of the nurse. There is a sequel in the makes called my time at sandrock.

The only game i can think off that is a blatant Sims rip off is Playboy the mansion released in 2005, it's by no means as good as the sims but i guess for the time it was an okay game fromthe little of what i played and what i can remember. These days it's probably good for a few laughs as to how cringy it all is. I'm sure there are a few sims  clones out there on pc from the early 2000's but i haven't played them to give any decent info.

There is also this game called Alterlife which i read an article on last year, supposed to be a more realistic version of the sims but other then a trailer there is not much info out there about the game..

wish they had this for the switch

Playing Fortnite in 2019 was exactly like that for me. It was the biggest year that I invested so much time and money into the game. I believe to have moved on from the game a bit and not like I used to play it some years back. I haven't played it in a while now. 

i enjoy it. keeps me busy. plus they're always changing things which keeps it interesting. they added no builds now which is great for those of us who just wanna kill people. lol!

What games tend to really suck you into it and before you know it hours have passed?

I'm playing Shin Megami Tensei V and it feels a lot like this with the way the world is designed. There's so many collectibles and quests scattered everywhere, probably the most i've seen in a video game. There are also "Amalgram" collectibles which are very valuable. You have to do a lot of grinding and a lot of decision making(like which moves to give to a demon or which fusion to work towards) so even if you only clear through one area it can take hours. 

In general lots of JRPGs suck you into it and keeps you going for several hours on end, sometimes almost like 10 hours. 

Fortnite and Animal Crossing New Horizons.

Hi. I'm 56 yrs old and I enjoy gaming. It's pretty much all I do now when I'm not working. My top two favorite games are Fortnite and Animal Crossing New Horizons. I also play Kirby and the Forgotten Lands and I have several Lego games. I only have the Nintendo Switch so that's the only games I can play. It's just something to pass the time.

Fortnite duos builds and no builds with friends.
