I made my original RuneScape account during classic. That account alone has over a year and a half logged in, and is getting nearly 25 years old, as is RuneScape. It is one of a handful of accounts that I’ve maxed out since. I go back to it probably every two years and play for a good while then stop.

The long dark is probably the game I have the most time in that isn’t an MMO, with well over 1k hours. There are other games that could probably compete but I don’t have any way of tracking or knowing.

Knowing that a single game has been such a significant portion of my actual living existence is kind of amazing to me. If anything I’m definitely loyal to what I like, I guess. I’m also really excited with where they are aiming to take the game because I feel as though it gets a lot of unfair flak in the genre, especially compared to osrs.

Not saying it isn’t, but if the reason why you’re saying that is because of the z/y key, I know one of the EU layouts swaps it. German I think?

Totally agree with you, but I would say that the original name made some sense. It used directx and the code name was directx box which became Xbox. Ideally edgy for the market at the time too, I think.

Despite being an avid gamer, I’m not even sure what the release order was after xbone. Being a grandparent or parent and doing it? Fuck that.
