I just dropped online games and went back to the 1980s-90s sims from back before the internet when i played games too long.
1. Battlehawks 1942
2. Their Finest Hour, The Battle Of Britain
3. Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe
All Lucasfilm titles too. i don't know what i was about WWII combat flight sims but i can still waste away hour by hour on them. graphics are dated but i never cared about that. i actually missed the cheesy PC Speaker sounds, too. and when the router drops the internet for hours on end, i can always sit back with old games such as those
They had more depth, could last a lot longer, no limits because there were always controls to customize them to where you never really truly 'finish' the game, the AI was so top notch that every time you played the same mission there was no repetition it was always different. different results, different moves every time. and all of that could fit on two 5.25" floppies. wow.
