A way to kill time

[pyradyn]

I have recently snapped and can not take it anymore. So I decided to go back 4 years ago and read when we were all crazy about M2TW. Reading the post I have tricked my mind to think. M2TW is going to release! Now I can play it like a new game for 2 weeks to survive or until demo. Back when we were discussing the differences between cities and forts, and it just hits you....wow we were wrong....so no more I must stop reading the forums before ETW launches (not really going to happen but eh) but here is for a demo tomorrow *crosses fingers* *remembers how CA ignored the org last go round and is very happy they are openly talking with us about Empire*

I try total war games but even at best they only mildly amuse me.

The main issue is that when I play them I'm wishing I was playing ETW

Saying pop up like

"I bet if this was ETW Milan, France and HRE wouldn't attack me by turn five."

"At least in ETW I don't have to worry about the pope"

"WTheck MIlan? Seriously."

"I bet ETW has less genoese crossbow men."

"Ugh at least I won't have jihads in ETW"


etc, etc.

So i'm going on a fps spree till demo, just to get my mind completely out of tw mindset at least in the evenings. Mornings I can always come back here and hope for demo :)

utopia (online browser game), WoW (i know but it passes time), any and all cricket related games, writing a thesis and studying my classical latin.

worse is im waiting on 2 game releases Empire and Stargate Worlds lol. only problem is had no new info on SGW for a while.

tried playing M2TW today got bored in like 5 minutes, same with Rome, i reckon if i can find my medieval cd's id enjoy it till i had to fight a battle then i would shudder at the graphics :P

Cheers knoddy

True it has not helped much. I need to completely beat all of FEAR's Expansions before I will let myself play FEAR2. So I guess I have that to do, but then I will pick of FEAR 2 and then will go crazy when I get ETW. So I will wait on FEAR since I have checked the Forums everyday for Demo and hey I even started posting again.......oh and I remembered my password after 2 years so....ya......demo.......



Ya knoddy same happen to me I have my MTW disks and I did just that. I couldn't play at Graphics. As for Eutopia I use to play but it has been a while since I played...do you have your Kingdom code if they still do that?

Well actually FEAR 2 is only based on FEAR not the expansions, so playing the expansions would probably just confuse you as FEAR 2 is ignoring the expansions.

I think FEAR 1 is like 10 bucks in the bargain bin of bargain bins.

The tw games are good but each one makes you want ETW. MTW -Graphics stink RTW-No combat animations MTW2-Upsetting AI.

Wow's as good of a diversion as anything else, old games are needed, it's all you can do. Hopefully today when the confirm the new faction we get a new demo. In about 4 hours

I think steam is trying to milk this demo for all it's worth.

That's why every 2 days I see new demos and games from the 1700 era

Oooo hey guys here's Euorpa III it has ministers

Here's that colonial game demo from 2 years ago.

Etc, etc.


I mean, it's useful but with 2 weeks till release at this point most people are just, "Oh..or I could just buy ETW in 2 weeks like I really want to."

It's time steam stopped holding out on us and gave us the demo

Amen, brother! Amen!

I will preach to that! I will join your kingdom knoddy I am so bored waiting. I know they ignore the Demos but I just feel like I have to complete them. As for WOW never really liked it but I will reinstall warcraft 3 and starcraft to pass time.

At least ou have something distracting to do while you wait. Just make sure you don't break your arms, because it would be awful if the demo was released and uoi couldn't play it.
