minus-square[email protected]AlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up52·13 days ago8k hours is a lot. That’s like PhD level, into a game I’ve never heard of before now. Sure, It’s trust their input.

minus-squarewarbond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·13 days agoI wouldn’t feel bad about asking here rather than googling it yourself. I like the engagement, personally.
minus-squaretaladarlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·13 days agoThat is over 10 years at 4h a day every single day.

minus-squarehemko@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-213 days agoYeah it kinda is, but the skill ceiling in pvp and pvm is massively high. There’s people who can do all the bosses in game eyes closed without hands and then there’s me who can sit clicking that same rock for a year
minus-squareValmond@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·13 days agoOh yeah I remember the mining clicking 😂 with the stone spontaniously combusting 😋
minus-squarehemko@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·13 days agoAnd breaking your pickaxe if you didn’t click away lol. Some of the random events were wild lmao
minus-squareToes♀@ani.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down1·13 days agoThose are rookie numbers for strategy games. Competency starts around 1500 hours.
minus-squaresugar_in_your_tealinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·13 days agoYup, I’m still a noob in EU4 after nearly 1000 hours. I’ll get the hang of it eventually. 😅
minus-squareshadowedcrosslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·13 days agoCan confirm, still suck at every PDX game despite a thousand or hundreds of hours in them.
