Empire Total war for the PC. Being the Martha confederacy is the best, but they have terrible units expect for the 64 lb, and elephants.
I'm still stuck on Skyrim. Don't have a whole lot of time for video games, and this one is pretty time consuming. I'll probably be playing it when the same people come out with the next game.
I play Company of Heroes on PC. It's a WWII real-time strategy game. Very realistic. I usually play as the Brits.
SOOOOO exited Rome 2 TW is coming out! http://www.pcgamer.com/previews/tot...w-engine-naval-combat-multiplayer-and-mods/2/
Still playing lots of multiplayer BF3 on PS3. I am a C-4 nut who loves collapsing buildings on enemy squads! Today I was at the top of the oil refinery in firestorm and sky dived onto an enemy tank, set down a bunch of explosives on it, jumped off, and ran in front of it. Right when the guy inside got me in his sights I blew the detonator and the whole thing exploded XD! I loooove moments like that!
I keep going back and forth between playing Skyrim and Sims 3 for PC. Somedays I feel like building a house and then getting married and having twins all in the same day, then watching as my sims kill themselves in various idiotic ways, next day I feel like one shotting noobs in a cave/tower/out in the field, chasing dragons and seeing if I can't randomly run across M'aiq the Liar. lol
Why is that a selling point for a game - how is it "cool" to build your own virtual house? Where's the challenge or stimulation? That sounds about as cool as "Farmville" on FB, just with better graphics. I avoid playing games like that, Sims 3, Empire, etc because 90% of the in-game time is simply repetitive, monotonous tasks which offer little challenge or mental stimulation. I'd much rather play a 1990s arcade game like "Aero Fighters" because it actually , and you don't spend inordinate amounts of time doing repetitive tasks which don't require actual skill or challenge. If you can actually play through a game like that and survive, you can finish it in 30 minutes or less, and there's still more of an actual "game" there than 100+ hours of Skyrim. Most gamers who grow up with this current era of games wouldn't be able to play a game like Twin Cobra or Aero Fighters for more than 3 minutes before calling it quits because it's "too hard" for them. Most modern games are all flash, no substance and made with little kids in mind who want to spend countless hours in front of a screen with as little actual mental stimulation as possible.
its dlc, you don't have to get it. For those that don't there is plenty other things in the world of Skyrim to entertain.
I fell in love with the first game. I loved being the Brutii, but for some reason when I got to a certain point, it crashed on me. So I couldn't go any further, it peeved me off so much. It was just when Gaius Marius unleasehes his reforms, so I never got the better units.
Not to be a prick, I don't understand the appeal - you spend way more time just "building your army" or watching your units do battle in an automated fashion in those types of games, than you actually do playing the game- not a very good "game time to actual stimulation" ratio. Plus what could be more boring than watching a bunch of Roman guys in skirts fighting some battle that no one's even heard of anyway? I mean it's not as boring as a Civil War game, but still...
Becuse it isn't like that. There's much more to it. It's the chance to make history, even if it doesn't exist in real life . And it's not in an automated fashion. You tell them what to do. For instance you can tell them to throw javelins when an enemy comes in range. Or they can do that before they charge an enemy. Of course the enviroment is big, even bigger in Empire total war. Rain affects gunpowder, and hills can stop or make artillery attacks.
Alice's Magical Mahjong, Ancient Heats & Spades, Big Kahuna 3 - on my Acer Iconia. I'm more of a 'lamer' than a gamer, I suppose. Never got into video RPGs even though I used to play D&D in my youth. I'm just old enough to prefer an old fashioned pinball machine, and to have fond memories of the early video games machines, like Asteroids, Galaga, and Centipede I have a Sega Saturn, but it's mostly gathering dust these days. When I do play, it's mostly Hyper 3-D Pinball (wow, what a shocker). I also have the Atari Collection 1 for it, which includes Asteroids and Centipede. I did get pretty good at Criticom and Resurrection Rise 2, but haven't played either one in ages. Mostly, I just have other priorities now.
I played the second one. Great battle system. Campaign not so much. Launching crusades is fun. Pope tells you what to do, kinda like the Senate in Rome. But the agent system is messed up. I liked it tho. Would recommend it!
Well the campagain for that time period would be tough, after all, Feudalism isn't known for a strong economy. But I'll have to play it.
It's weird. You use merchants as agents to capitalize on resources. Then the computer comes in and buys out your merchants and ruins your economy. It's a broken system in the game I think. Still a lot of fun tho, like all total war games
