What's "Your Addiction" in Gaming?

[JuanMena]

Is there a game you ALWAYS have to play at least once a week?

For me, it all began a sunday morning of 2003... I used to have a Windows XP PC and a CD-R with Zsnes and some ROMs... among them "Tetris Attack" which I thought it was a hidden sequel of TETRIS for NES which I loved playing in my "Super Joy II" Famiclone when I was 4 years old in 1996/1997...
Ever since I've been playing that game rigorously at least once a week.
I LOOOOVE that game, is so much fun.

My favorite is Pokémon Puzzle League due to nostalgic reasons... but I've played all the game's versions, SNES, GB, N64, GBC, GBA, GCN & NDS, including Japanese Versions with the exception of cancelled "Panel de Pon 64"

What about y'all?

It's less like an addiction and more like mood swings , months can go by and i will boot up the same game hell even years

I didn't play Command & Conquer games since 2020/2021 and focused on WarCraft/Age Of Empires , now some 5 years later I'm playing CNC almost everytime i use the laptop

Either modding it or playing skirmishes or story , I'm the sort of person that keeps playing the same game for a long period of time without getting bored , cuz as long as I'm getting better i will try out different strategies and ways to experience the game

I do get such stuff with puzzle games (especially Tetris) and roguelikes but not every week. It's more like "I started it again and I can't stop it"

The classic boomer shooter from 1997 called Blood, I haven't played it in like two weeks but I'm just *itching* to throw some dynamite at some cultists once again but I got other obligations, those being Ace Combat Zero followed by 5.

Streets of Rage 4 was this for a long time. I don't play as much anymore, but still play often when I am in the mood, or finished a different game and all it has to offer. A similar case for DmC: Definitive Edition and DMC5. Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 4 Remake I could not put down for nearly a year in their respective release years.

Rushing Beat X was this for a while, until I got the Platinum trophy.

I have played Animal Crossing DS for a whole year every day (bought the game day-one), then for a some months I've played daily "Race the Sun" (just a couple of runs).
Otherwise, I use to play the game I want and then, when it ends, I play something else.

Not once per week, but I'm hella addicted to Monster Hunter whenever it's that time, I've explained it on different thread before, I can play it for ~5 hours straight and took someone's chicken for me to realize it's 2 AM already. Basically "2 weeks Minecraft phase" meme but for MH.

It was so bad with MHFU couple years ago, that I genuinely forgot to eat and time all while being extremely frustrated at soloing G-Rank, and I have to actively stop playing before I broke something.

My goal was to slay Fatalis just once, and I had to cheese it in the end.

Spoiler: This is me if I didn't take a breather in MHFU
