No game is good enough to play for that long. Or if there is, I

Hmmm....

"Euro Truck Simulator 2"... release date Oct 18 2012.

In fairness, I haven't been playing it non-stop since then (and in
fact, I don't think I actually bought it almost whole year later!)*.
Why, there are whole months where I haven't played the game at all
(admittedly, not that many, but the point remains!). But it has
remained on my hard-drive(s) available to play throughout that entire
period, and it's still a game I actively enjoy between other titles.






* there's a spreadsheet for keeping track the dates when I've acquired
new games... but I didn't start it until November 2013, and ETS2 isn't
on it.** But since I reviewed the game in that same month, I'm
assuming I played it for the first time shortly before that date.


** Steam actually has a page where it records all your purchases
(https://store.steampowered.com/account/history/) but it's hard to
search, and there's a LOT of entries on my history page ;-)***
