    I’ve left a game open on the main screen, or paused, so many times that my play counters are not remotely trustworthy

        That’s 4 years or 104 fortnights or 1,458+ poop socks.

        To put that much time into something and say you don’t like, obviously it capture that person’s attention well beyond it’s intended shelf life. How can anyone improve on something that captured someone’s attention for four fucking years of playtime.

          Streamers have a good life

          Unless you’re handicapped or unable to work for some reason and get a passive revenue that allows you to live, i’m not sure how people can do this

      I did this with Garry’s Mod, writing gamemodes and occasionally testing if it works.

      Back before GMod 11 the game startup time was atrocious, so I just kept it running.

      But in the end, it was about 5k hours
