My group just hit 500 hours in Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime

That's a crazy number for a game about flying a neon spaceship. It matters because we're debating if it's the ultimate couch co-op for teamwork, or if the repetition finally gets old. What's your highest hour count with friends on one couch?

That kind of time is wild... it really shows how a game is just a box of parts until a friend group makes it their own thing. You see it everywhere, like how @anna_hill tweaks the rules to keep a game fresh. It's the same reason people mod games or rearrange their furniture... the need to put your own stamp on the stuff you live with, even if it's just a silly spaceship. The repetition only gets old if you stop playing with the rules a little.

Honestly, we hit a wall around 200 hours and just started adding our own dumb house rules.

We did the same thing as @patriciaellis. Our group added a rule where you can trade two sheep for one of any resource, which saved our games from total gridlock. We also banned the robber from the desert for the first three rounds. It just made the early game less mean. Once you start tweaking, it's hard to stop.
