      Fallout 4 was released 2,985 days ago.

      12,000/2,985 = an average of 4 hours a day, every day, no days off.

      Probably the best value purchase you’ll make in your life.

        that’s why, after around 10k hours, I finally paid for it, lol.

            also, it was on sale. GOTY Edition + all DLCs for, like, $15. why not?

            I got more out of that game than anything else I ever pirated (except, maybe, my copies of TNG, DS9, VOY, and all 20 seasons of Law & Order), so I thought: why not pay for it? it was totally worth it!

                I’m 44. also, I spent most of my life freelancing/working from home, and, through covid and for a long time afterwards, unemployed— so lots of free time.

                also, I haven’t played it in about a year, although a new Mod, Fallout: London just came out, so I may just kiss a few hundred hours goodbye on that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
