If you could only play one game for the rest of your life what would you choose and why?

Dota2. Immensely complex, intricate mechanics and the meta is always changing, which mixes the game up.

Football Manager

Purely from the point of view that it has the addiction factor to sustain heavy interest, albeit in phases that come and go. No game I've ever played comes close on the hours spent.

Got to be one of the Total War Games, easily moddable if you want different periods/maps and each play through takes a stupid amount of time.

Tricky one. Honestly for me I would say Battlefield 4. I had all the maps and spent many hours on there. If it still had the player base I would still be playing. Some of the maps were incredible like the wake island one, but there just arent the people playing it anymore.

World of tanks. It's about the only game I play these days anyway.

It would be Battlefield of some kind. Only because online..

If offline probably Skyrim or Fallout 4.

rFactor, because the enormous amount of (free) downloadable tracks and cars keeps it interesting.

World of Tanks. So much depth. As long as there is a form of WOT running, I will be playing it.

Cthangband for me with graphics tile set. I've lost count of the amount of times I've gone back to this and played it for hours on end, although last stint must have been about five years or so ago so time for another blast. Just googled it and seen there's been an update, that's me sorted. The good thing as well is it takes next to no processing power to run. Beware ye modern gamers, it's a bit old school, but hooks you in if you like rpg elements.

It's basically a take on rogue/moria but with a Cthulhu mythos inspired environment.

As for why, it's badass with permadeath. Lots of unique items with special abilities, random dungeons, sadistic random levels where there's little chance of survival if you're too low a character and multiple character races to play as whilst trying to get to the bottom dungeon level.
