Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Like many people during the COVID-19 lockdown, I turned to videogames as an escape, and given the popularity of Animal Crossing, I decided to take a look.
I was taken aback by the endless cycle of purgatory-like existence: wake up, complete rote tasks, consume, upgrade, discard, repeat.
I embraced this spirit and spent the next 150+ hours paving my entire island with asphalt while collecting as many consumer goods as possible, and finally displaying and piling said goods over every square pixel of the island.
A lot of time traveling was involved, but no mods. I did end up modding the game after completing the island so that I could remove the title screen at the beginning of the game, and to install the wide angle camera mod for documentation.
