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.


Least: The two I bounced hard off of I think was the '24 version of Microsoft flight sim? Loved Century of Flight in the past, but felt like the navigating the UI was oddly arcane and just couldn’t be arsed to learn its eccentricities. Also GTA V. Do not get it, man. I really enjoyed San Andreas and the old Saints Row games, but GTA V was just boring for me.
BG3 was another that I didn’t get a ton out of… Act 1 was great, but it fell off a lot after that imo. Every session felt like a slog (I actually like 5e, but it tends to get more slog-y by itself at higher levels imo). I just watched the rest on YouTube and didn’t feel like I missed much in terms of experience. I get where people got into it though, the voice acting really was a treat and I did enjoy Act 1. But I felt like I went way over my usual dollar to fun ratio.
Most: Minecraft is up there, like many, especially for my kiddo. We both really like playing Golf With Your Friends together along with PinballFX. I’m pretty much done for good with it at this point but I put countless hours into New Vegas that I don’t regret one bit. Similar story for Oblivion and Skyrim. Batman Arkham Knight is, maybe controversially, best in the series IMO and the only game I’ve ever 200%'d. Even at the price, RDR2 was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in gaming. American and Euro Truck Simulators, CKII, Civ VI, Subnautica. I really liked Cyberpunk and put a lot of hours in there, but I came in well after the release kerfuffle and had no expectations. My wife plays the shit out of Disney’s Dreamlight Valley.
