survival? giant time sinks. kind of glad that I stopped playing ark.

This is sort of my problem. Even when games start to interest me with robust building systems and an opportunity to be creative, they tend to focus on combat and survival mechanics way more than I care to deal with, so I lose interest.

Minecraft only really managed to pull me in because it has Peaceful difficulty in Survival mode - it's a nice compromise between constantly having to eat and fight monsters versus everything feeling too easy and meaningless when building in Creative mode. I like being able to work on cool builds without having to worry about a Creeper blowing it the fuck up or monsters constantly attacking me and distracting me from what I'm doing. And don't get me started on multiplayer (other players are the worst monsters of all).

I have tons of respect for players who can still manage to build massive projects in games like that, though. It's impressive talent - and one of the few cases where I actually accept the premise that video games can be a unique medium for art (as opposed to just being interactive movies).
