Star Citizen. Can’t recommend it for anyone unless they’re really really really patient.
Had some friends try to get me to play. Gave it a good 20 hours or so, spent most of it just trying to get anywhere. About a quarter of the time some random guy would zoom along and blow me up before he even showed up on radar, and now I was on a timer waiting for my ship to come back. Another 10% of the time I’d get sucked through my ship when I tried to use FTL, there goes another ship recovery timer.
The time consumption even when things go right is absolutely ridiculous, and they often go wrong. The random PK shit feels so fucking awful that I’d really rather just play something else.
I have played and enjoyed games that require patience, like Wurm Online and EVE Online. Star Citizen is on a level above even those and I’m not sure I would have liked it even before I had kids, but now? Forget it.
