Help! MOO3 is taking over my life!

[JonahFalcon]

No! It's happening... I have played for 3 hours without even noticing! Too much to do... too much to look at...

Help! I sense I won't be sleeping tonight! Too addictive... too involving! Arrrrrrrrrrgh....

This is based on the first few hours - my opinion may change as I get deeper - but I think this may be the most addictive game I've played since Civilization II.

Good-bye productivity.

(Disclaimer: I haven't gotten THAT deep yet - but judging by the way a few hours disappeared without notice...)

Use the In-Game Alarm
(and tell me wheter it can stop you :=) )

Good news!

Just save a little productivity to write a review.

BOO HOO!

Thanks, Jonah, for dropping by and giving us these little tidbits. They really do make my day. Especially the alt-tab trick.

Also nice to hear both you and Gabe from PA saying the same sort of thing - you start playing, and the time flies by.

I dunno, the bragging about how he's already got the game is really starting to get on my nerves. Granted, he's more of a font of info than those jerks over at QS/IG, but still...it seems like he's degenerated into a bragging phase...

How big of a game is it, install-wise?

We talking NWN big, Max Payne big...or Civ III size?

Never fear, your help has arrived. Just overnight the game to my house and I will take on the horrible responsibility of playing MOO3 so that you can get back to whatever it is you were doing before this. Really, it's no big deal... I'm happy to help!

Not bad - 800MB.

Not bad at all!

As for you being stuck playing the game...

Cool, thanks Jonah!

Ya know...I think IG is gonna step up production soon. Please??

[Harry Seldon]

Jonah seemed to think it may be out this week. Maybe IG will have some mercy on us and release it earlier than expected.

[JonahFalcon]

It could very be out by next week - or even by Friday. They already have printed manuals and production CDs. Doesn't take much more than that.

[TheMaestro]

I understand stores being longer than expected...but buying online for shipping I don't. Who knows...the sooner the better.

Oh boy, another game to destroy my life.
