Me at 3am on a work day: "I don't even like Civ that much, just one more turn and I'll go to bed"

[-] Comp4@hexbear.net 18 points 9 months ago

CIV isn't even my favorite strategy game, but I could drop everything, sit down, and play a 4-6 hour session every day if I had the time.

[-] Tachanka@hexbear.net 10 points 9 months ago

to be fair, with games like that, most of your logged hours are gonna be you just leaving the computer on while you go and do other stuff in between turns

[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 9 points 9 months ago

In between turns? That's just turn 1!

This is the biggest reason I play Warhammer. I just like moving my little dolls around on a table.

Broke: "They're not toys, they're miniatures!"

Woke: "Yes, they're just toy soldiers."

Bespoke: "I just like moving my little dolls around a table."

I remember telling a guy I know while he was playing warhammer 'oh that's like chess or something right?'

He was not a happy camper.

[-] oktherebuddy@hexbear.net 21 points 9 months ago

My father showed me these games as a kid, ive been playing map strategy games since 7, i have thousands of hours in them

[-] the_post_of_tom_joad@hexbear.net 15 points 9 months ago

I was gonna say im different but then i remembered my warcraft obsession back in the day so it tracks.

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 9 months ago

i despise map games... i'd much rather fly in space ships or something

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 24 points 9 months ago

But how do you navigate space without a map?

Checkmate spaetheist!

this guy doesn't know what telescopes are

[-] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago

Play starsector

[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

I mean I'd rather be a trillionaire but let's at least keep it in the realm of like video games.

[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 9 points 9 months ago

I like Stellaris but I really can't be bothered to play it; I keep fighting to stay ahead in research but always neglect my military. Also years of playing 'last man standing' type games means I disregard the diplomacy aspect, and relations between factions is a big factor in the game.

last time I played a vibeo bame was a month ago and it was minecraft. checkmate liberals.

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago

One of these days I'll actually play a game with my Malifaux pieces. They'll likely start falling apart mid-game, damn little skinny Gremlins. Otherwise most map games just unintentionally guilt trip me as someone who's really gotten rusty with ArcGIS.

[-] AOCapitulator@hexbear.net 6 points 9 months ago

this is a good litmus test, if people think this I know to never speak to them again

[-] somename@hexbear.net 4 points 9 months ago

how can you avoid them without using the map?!?! checkmate liberals

[-] ExotiqueMatter@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 9 months ago

Dude, this is literally playing dolls with extra steps.

[-] TheLastHero@hexbear.net 11 points 9 months ago

yes-comm once more unto the breach my dear dollies, once more...

[-] NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago
[-] ExotiqueMatter@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 9 months ago

The twitter guy is trying to portray it as traditional gender role masculine activity, so this is kind of ironic. Maybe I formulated that poorly.

[-] NewAcctWhoDis@hexbear.net 5 points 9 months ago

No, you were pretty clear. I was being snarky for, in retrospect, no good reason.
