That's pretty cool. That one looks like the very first Civ game. It's up to IV now... and it just gets more and more amazing with each and every one.

 

I wish I knew what it was like to be addicted to those.

I don't get addicted to games...

And I could never really see myself being a gamer.

The closest thing I've been addicted to is probably The Sims. That was back before expansion packs existed.

I could understand being addicted to computer games if I was a touring musician or something, with nothing better to do hours on end.

This happens to be one of my favorite interviews, musically speaking. Butch Trucks, drummer for the Allman Brothers, discusses the Wanee Festival and World of Warcraft.

H: So I’m reading wikipedia.com, and rumor has it you’re a Level 60 Human Paladin on World of Warcraft

BT: I’m actually looking at him right now. His name is Ryd, on Bleeding Hollow. I just got some Judgment Armor – we were doing Molten Core last night. It’s one of the things that keeps me sane. One of the problems about touring is you’ve got all damn day long with nothing to do, and I think it’s one reason that so many artists wind up being alcoholics or drug addicts, or watching soap operas. There’s not a whole lot to do sitting around a hotel room all day long. I’ve just gotten fanatic about playing these damn games. It keeps me occupied. It’s really fascinating. I did about five or six years on EverQuest and had several high-level, including a level 70 Cleric, and always, I don’t believe in buying a damn character, it’s kind of dumb.

To me, the fun is in building the character. I also have a Level 60 Priest. I have two accounts, and two computers. Right now, I just logged on my priest, and I’m about to head over to Silithus and do a bunch of quests that my Paladin can do by himself, but it takes him a long time. He has to do a lot of sitting and drinking mana water ‘til he can go again. If I have my priest sitting around and keeping him healed then everything goes a lot faster. Yeah, Wikipedia, somebody told me about that, this damn online encyclopedia. I went and read that, and I read something about how I like to read and study philosophy and literature and I have a Level 60 Paladin in World of Warcraft. There are more important things in my life, but hey, whatever turns them on.

 

yea d2 is a pretty shitty put together game, ill admit it. so will the fat kid whos not* addicted to it. your so owned l33t fag.
