Title: Hello - again
Post by: achmed_sender on August 11, 2017, 02:06:03 pm
My name is Marco Hermann, 21 years old, living in Lucerne (Switzerland) and I am currently studying Economics at the University of Zurich


Some of you may still know me, I was playing lots of Dominion a few years ago. It was about in the end of the Isotropic era and the beginnings of Goko, reached Top 20 at my peak. I recently rediscovered Dominion and try to get used to the 2 most recent expansions. Was very glad to see there are 2nd Editions of the Base Game and Intrigue now. Aside from Dominion, I started playing quite some games: League of Legends, Factorio and Civilisation 5 to name a few. I also play the drums, like to watch movies and go skiing in winter.

So what do you do in summer?

That's the community I missed  :)
I apparently still can't write stuff in English the way I mean it.

Well, I don't think it's necessarily a very desirable goal to be able to write stuff that I won't be able to misunderstand.

Factorio and Civilisation 5

I've spent hundreds of hours for both

That's English's fault more than yours.

According to Steam, I got 200 hours on Factorio and 170 on Civ. Great games indeed. Still haven't beaten anything higher than difficulty 4 AI in Civ though :)

I am happy to brag that I've beaten it on Deity :)
Do not enjoy playing on Deity though, because AI advantages seem too artificial at this level

Wow, congrats for that.
I guess you went for the classical Gandhi Domination victory :)

Never tried higher than difficulty 5, I actually haven't finished a lot of games yet at all, but there are numerous savegames with different friends constellations waiting to be continued.
