That's it. Done
1400 words on a game I didn't like, didn't enjoy, didn't entirely understand and didn't have a manual for.
Ok that's a little harsh, it's quite fun actually, but who the hell really has time to plough a solid week into a strategy game these days? I hate to say it but I think I'm getting old and consoley.
I used to live wishing for games that took upwards of 60 hours to complete. Now I get baffled and worrysome if they last more than 8. Part of it is being a critic I suppose, and being painfully aware that after work, girlfriend, sleep and friends I have precious little time to spend playing and writing these things up.
Oh to do this as a job and not have to spend from 8am till half 5 every weekday pottering off to a job and just sitting at home gaming and writing instead..... such a dream...
games,
idiocy,
writing
