Heyy! There's more than one female playing CKII (or, at least, declared female)... and we're both from Ohio??
I first found Paradox through EU3, which was then at the In Nomine stage; browsing some strategy game websites for a new addiction, I found a review for this game which promised depth, scope, and a focus on map-level strategy without the real-time battle interludes from Total War. Crusader Kings is a game I learned about on these forums, I believe as part of the discussion around HTTT's dynasties feature. Can't wait to get my hands on the new and improved version. More depth, more stability, and no ear-piercing trumpet blast accompanying every popup? Yes please!
Regardless of sex, age, location, profession, or personal interest I think it's now safe to say that CK2 players are above all patient people.
And you're a crazy cat lady! I have 4 catsThree, and the other one is from South Carolina. Assuming it will run on my computer! (I'm a big fan of CK1.)
45, female, majored in history, did most of a master's degree in history, had stroke.
Now, that's the truth.Brannart said:Regardless of sex, age, location, profession, or personal interest I think it's now safe to say that CK2 players are above all patient people.
23, male, doing a PhD in medieval history.
I'm going to try and get my girlfriend, who is also a medievalist, to play this too - I know she'll love the subject matter, it's just a question of whether she takes to the interface and the mechanics (previous attempts with other games have not gone well...)
So we have any accumulated stats on this thread yet? Average age? Typical Profession? etc?
