I wonder if Civ 6 will be as inspired as Beyond Earth

I really enjoyed Beyond Earth tbh

I'll bring you one

As if I could be bought off that easy... make it cherry and you got a deal.

I wish I were smart enough to 4X but I'm so fucking stupid when it comes to this style of play

edit - actually I'm probably just too lazy to learn

I only got "good" at the Civ games when I started playing multiplayer.

But if you don't really enjoy the gameplay then there's no reason to go good I guess.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
All I know about Civ is that Gandhi is not to be fucked with.

I should love CIV and grand strategy games in general.

I can't tell you how many games of Risk I played as a kid. But there are just so many rules to these games I just end up getting lost.

Same kind of thing happens in RTS games, I'll focus on either the base building or sending a squad out to kill but I can't multitask both. My brain just doesn't work like that I think.

So you don't do Europa Universalis or Crusader Kings either?

I made a sizable dent in this essay on internet porn. It's a good thing I've done so much research.

So much...

I should've majored in this.

You have good taste

The only correct answer for ice cream is that cheap cartoon character ice cream with the gumball eyes.


If I make it at least halfway through this paper by lunch I'll go buy Uncharted 4.

Have you tried following along with YouTube tutorials or do you just not have the kind of time to devote to it?

I haven't tried a tutorial. What I did in the past was just put it on the easiest difficulty and the smallest map size with the in-game instructions on. it didn't help much

I don't really have the time now though. the full time school/full time work hustle is all consuming

Don't you put this hate on us.

Stellaris is what BE should have been.

Civ has never been that type of game, even Alpha Centauri wasn't that type of game.

BE wasn't as much of a leap as I wanted it to be, but I still played it quite a bit and there are great things there.

Ya, I hear that.

If you ever try it again, just follow along with a YouTube tutorial, it's much better than the in game stuff.

I remember playing civ 2 when I was little and I learned the hard way that rushing the Great Wall instead of anything else is a poor way to deal with barbarians

While I completely agree with you, my unrealistic mind hoped for something like Stellaris.

Bed or uncharted?

Bed with Uncharted.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms IV and Master of Orion were my TBS jams as a kid (and I think my first strategy games).

We rented ROTTK4 from Blockbuster when I was like -- 11 or 12 or whatever -- not even really being sure what the fuck it was, but we figured it out and ended up playing it hours on end.

Huh, never heard of the Gihren games. I didn't know the Japanese did Grand Strategy other than the Nobunaga's games and Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Looks like a Gundam grand strategy game?
Yes, they are fucking amaaaaazing. Insanely complex though. Managing contracts for MS r&doing, guiding the wars, trying to keep peace between earth and space dwellers, managing resources transported amongst colonies, etc. They're exhaustive.

I might be able to have a new apartment by June :)

Wow that's awesome to hear! Congrats! Where at?

Whaaat? How have I not heard about this? Are there more than one?

But we matter :(

Hey, who am I to argue with Naughty Dog.

As far as I'm concerned the most relevant thing to come out of Rhode Island is the NeoGAF user WhereAreMahDragonz.

We'd be best pals tbh

It would have been Pheonix area. If you're near there I wonder if there's an alternate shard of reality where we are best pals.

I am mad the bearshark didn't eat her fucking face

I don't understand the outrage over Avril. Her stuff doesn't seem any more dumb than a lot of the other shit out there. I think she's cute. I like sk8r boi.

edit: er, she married nickelback, which is really disgusting, but other than that I don't hate her

edit2: I love her sk8er boi performance on letterman, especially because of how creepy letterman acts at the end
