@coliver I do play modded.

Oh. I see, I think. So little happened that I could not tell that there was anything resembling progress. I could not determine that such a thing existed from the few minutes that I played. I figured that I was missing something big.

Yeah you just go up in levels and defeat more monsters, unlock heroes, level them up, etc. Lather rinse repeat.

It's the "but there are no enemies" thing that got me. There was no threat to defeat. I couldn't figure out the "why"

Well there are boss fights in Tap Titans and Clicker Heroes. But after each boss is just another boss.

I'm actually running a modded server out of my house at the moment that I play on locally.

I had set it up for some buddies then they all went AFK for the summer season ...

A big pile of unopened board and card games. I need a table gaming area in the new house.

For some reason, I really like games like "Railroad Tycoon" where you feel like there is some deep strategy because of all the variables that you're trying to figure out to do it best. Of course, in the end, after you've wasted numerous hours playing the scenarios and whatnot, you realize that the AI is obviously not that detailed and it's all just fluff that fooled you into wasting your entire day on it.

I'm like that with the Tropico series.

I lasted a whole weekend on that before I got utterly bored.
EDIT: Danielle and I both, that is.

That's not shameful - that's actually a good game!

Fully agreed- great game. But I have logged near a month of my life into it. it's about the only game nowadays I can kill hours on.

Head buried in the sand, as always. The only difference here is that my head isn't buried in NTG lol. I have a lot on my plate, in all aspects. 'Personal Time' seems to take a backburner for months in a row.

EDIT: ML, SW, FB, all classify under Personal Time lol
