Why do I keep returning to Eternium? ChatGPT's analysis & suggestions...
My questions: Over the past few decades, I've played & abandoned several video games (on PC with mouse). Yet, despite its so-called "simplicity", Eternium is the only game I keep returning to, even after nearly a decade of playing. Whenever it feels repetitive, I quit for a few months & then return, only to find it fresh again (low re-learning threshold). And despite their so-called "breadth & depth", I seldom return to games like Titan's Quest, Grim Dawn, Path of Exile, etc., once I reach end-game levels there. Analyze & explain this unique phenomenon.
Player profile: I'm a master instructional designer with specific focus on cognitive psychology & ergonomics. My life principle is "aesthetic minimalism", deleting anything that does not enable the core purpose. I also place the highest value on mutually beneficial long-term relationships (the Eternium team is not greedy & they politely enable in-game purchases unobtrusively).
