This game is a dopamine trap that has been bad for my brain (since 2020). I have a bogus entry in my /etc/hosts to keep me from playing it, and yet I too often disable it because I can't help myself. It's like crack.
Yeah I had the same issue with it in like 2017-18. Very addictive and ultimately unsatisfying gameplay. Juice not worth the squeeze. If you struggle with distraction and dopamine loops just avoid it. You aren’t missing much.
I also did the hosts file block and removed it. It’s just like any addictive behavior though: break the habit for a week or two and you won’t miss it. For me I was visiting family for 2 weeks and they had terrible internet so I couldn’t win the game anyway.
Holy shit you are not kidding. I played until 2am last night :)
The short and fast matches, simple yet deep mechanics, map randomness, FFA chaos, and poker-like aspects combine together into one spicy addiction package…
There’s something extra sweet about victory in an 8-person FFA.
