What should I play?

[Kinac]

I currently play only two games. Osu! and Tetris. Both of these games require years to get good at. I want to find another game like that. What do you recommend me to play? Please don't recommend rhythm, strategy, action, rpg, racing and fps games. Basically I want games that can be played for 100's of hours and still be fun.
Please don't suggest games like Minecraft, The Sims or pretty much any mainstream games. Mainstream games are way too easy for me. And don't tell me "Well you haven't tried this and that."
I'm looking for a fast paced games. If you don't know what I mean by "fast paced games", just look up "Tetris 40L record" and you will see what I mean.

Uh...I'd say you could do a lot worse than Sudoku. Challenges you, makes you better at mathematics over time...there are far worse things you could be staring at for that mount of time!

I know you said no strategy, but Civ V, Age of Wonders and the like. The Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings series also seem to fit that description extremely well. And personally, I'm far more likely to spend hundreds of hours on a good strategy game or RPG series than any puzzle game or rhythm game (which Osu! most definitely is, judging by the vids I'm watching of it,).
I also have friends that literally have over 1000 hours logged in TF2, and I've logged 607 hours in the game myself. So there's that.

I don't know why, but strategy games seem too slow for me. And then there Is the fact that I'm horrible at strategy games. And the same goes for 2D fighting games.

I like that idea. After reading your reply I spent a few minutes learning how to solve the puzzles and It seems fun. I will definitely solve sudoku puzzles in my free time, but I need something else too. To be honest It doesn't even have to be a video game. It can be a hobby or an outdoor activity, as long at It doesn't require any special equipment.

Quake live, counter strike global offensive(if you use ESEA), starcraft 2, dota 2, natural selection 2, smite.

Just make sure you get on forums and get into a competetive team and watch streams. If you only play in pubs you will just suffer.

I'm not that much into casual games. So these games won't be for me. Have played Peggle, The Sims and a rougelike called
"Rogue Legacy".

I can't stand Minecraft. It's such a boring game to me. If I want to be creative, I can draw. Well, that's my opinion.

When then I don't see any game that can fit you
you said you were playing Tetris I think Tetris is pretty much a casual game with some puzzle element but you refuted my choice.
Roguelike are not even close to casual
after you refuted pretty much everything we said, I don't know? have a better openness to games? or don't play them at all?
I'm sorry :S

Just search "Tetris 19 seconds" on youtube. Watch the first video. I wouldn't call a game where you have to press 6 buttons per second a casual game. Roguelikes aren't fast paced. I did enjoy Rogue legacy, but only for about 10 hours. I want a game where you have to press a lot of buttons and you need a really long time to get pro at. (Please don't suggest Starcraft II)

but you said don't recommend Rhythm (or almost any genre for that matter) game and that basically what fit your description, not sure what you are looking for.
maybe very hard game?
Like Ikaruga?
