Well with Factorio Space Age I'm hooked for a long time. New DLCs coming for AoE II too, one dropped recently for Wargame Red Dragon, they're really nice to keep "old" game even more relevant than they were. Also remasters when they are well made like the Red Alert one.

Already spent way too many hours in Space Age. About to start on Red Circuits and realized I need to completely reconfigure my main bus.

On a more serious note, I'm really feeling like it's safer to buy dlc and updates for old games than new ones. I was one of the people who freaking preordered Kerbal Space Program 2, thinking it would be amazing and so excited for a new KSP. And then it was such a dumpster fire, I haven't played it more than a dozen hours. From a pure ROI in playtime vs cost, I've gotten literally nine times the value from Factorio then I have from KSP 2, and twenty times the value for KSP 1 (my most played game). And I still play both of them regularly.

Why risk wasting $60 when I know these old games are still good?

I did the same with ksp2... Part that really hurt there was finding out it was a production disaster the entire time.. One or 2 of the correct people in the right place could have saved it!

Busy waiting on bots to build out 16 lanes of copper smelting in my space age base right now, funney enough. Though I'm fixing LDS shortages.

On the topic of old games, many times the Minecraft Modding scene can solve the all the new games suck problem on its own!
