  • How Many Hours / Day Do You Plan to Play Civ 4?

    I tell myself I don't have 2 or 3 hours in a day to play this kind of stuff any more, but I'm almost sure I will. And in the first few weeks of getting used to the game, those hours could double.

    I just hope the kids won't bring this up in therapy years from now:

    "...and what else do you hear in your dreams?"

    "Well, doctor, a strange voice. Sounds like an aging Vulcan explaining the history of Democracy...that or the discovery of cooked salmon, I can't tell which. I also have bad dreams that my dad ate a computer game box and then conquered the living room."

    I figure 3-4 hours per day AVERAGE. One or two days taking a break; 2 or 3 being obsessive @ 5-7 hours.

          5-6 hours, unless i don't like the game, then it will be less.

            1-2 hours a day until I divorce my wife over CIV.

            Then it will be 7 hours plus

                During weekdays I will play less then 1 to 1.5 hours. (I try to discipline myself to that ritme since I need to be fit to work and that is still more important then a game)

                In a weekend it is possible that there will be 5 hour session but not on a regular basis for most of the time it will be 2 hours or less (I discovered that if I play those longer sessions my brain keeps running at 200% which does not seem too healthy )

                  Well, for me, it depends how good the game is.

                    For the first day or two I'll probably play it over 7 hours (I'll be on vacation). But then after the first weekend I'll probably average 3-4 a night for a week or so, then likely level off at 1-2 hours mostly multiplayer I hope after that

                          As much time as needed. (why didn't you gave us that option? )

                              I'll probablly only get like 3 hours (or less) in due to scheduling. Intense work loads currently.
