I trampled over everyone in my Georgia Tech dynasty in NCAA Football 12. The option is ridiculous in that game.

It's rough playing as UMass because my players are so bad I am struggling against every single opponent. I did pull off and amazing 4th quarter comeback against Alabama though. It was absolutely gross. I was losing 52-6 going into the 4th and I ended up winning 62-55. That's right, I managed to outscore Alabama 56-3 in the 4th. It came from the fact that I got 6 onside kicks in a row, a pick-6 and a fumble recovery that ended in a touchdown drive.
I saved the highlights from the game and I never plan on deleting them.

I did a Central Michigan dynasty once (didn't get too far), but IIRC my solution to the lack of talent was to run a pro offense with a lot of short passes and dinked and dunked my way up the field. Defense was a nightmare though.
The last dynasty I did before UMass was Air Force. The best I did with them was get to the Rose Bowl in my second season. I beat Nebraska in the Rose Bowl to cap off an undefeated season.

That reminds me of how horrendous the ranking system is in that game. It is unbelievably awful.
And how random the game is. I mean I understand allowing upsets to occur otherwise the game wouldn't be that much fun, but when the national championship game is SMU and Vanderbilt (an actual national championship game in my dynasty) there is a problem with the game.

What's the Long Dark's genre? Horror?

I agree. I played it for about 5 hours and quit so I wouldn't get tired of it. I'll probably have another look when they release the next update, which they say will nearly double the size of the playable area.
Right now it's purely a survival game. It's an early build that you can buy as a kind of kickstarter-ish early access through Steam. When the Story Mode is released, it sounds like it'll have some mystery elements, as your character tries to figure out what the frack is going on. There's mention of some kind of "geomagnetic event", whatever that might mean. Solar flare? Microwave burst? EMP?

Oh. So it's not nuclear war.
I might be a bit obsessed.

Aaaaarrrgghhh!!! Not merely addicting. Moar, moar, moar! Instead of one more turn syndrome, it's one more hour syndrome! Merfolk sorcerers, elvish horse archers, human knights, long-haired swordmaidens, druids of the forest, never enough of any to fight the incoming orcs, necromancers and the evil queen! For the Kingdom and the Gods!
Hexagon-combat-based games can be quite disturbingly addictive. See above.

Hmm. No. I prefer the ones in which you can close into your enemy, then destroy their internal organs via crosses delivered by a power fist.

I love it when I discover little things in the Oblivion world I never noticed before. For instance I just discovered a skeleton lying near a fort I never saw before.

My Steam library hosts a few games I have actually played, a bunch of games I bought on sale and never played and a large selection of games I got in the Humble charity bundles and will likely never be played. I also play off Steam as much as possible, so it does not (of course) count the (probably) over a thousand hours I have devoted to Elder Scrolls games over the years.
That said, I have 73 hours with Beyond Earth (my flatmate), 13 hours so far with the Blackwell point-and-click series, 449 hours with Skyrim (my flatmate and I), just 65 hours recorded on CK II and EU IV, 13 hours with XCOM: Enemy Unknown and 18 with Game Dev Tycoon.

meh
Not even one game with 200 hours? What are you, some sort of filthy casual?
I have...
1760 hours in Civ5
500 hours in Counter Strike: Source (plus at least 2k more before that was recorded)
150 in CS:GO
130 in TF2
100 in Skyrim
plus god knows how many hours in Civ4, TF2, HoN that aren't counted by Steam.
