... Que?

[Glenn]

Well, I was playing my Dacian campaign last night
when I discovered it was midnight and although I kept telling myself 'I
will go to bed after the next turn', as soon as I got into a rough
patch with
two Makedonian armies headed for Serdika the
point was I found it impossible to quit until
two in the morning at which time I realised I would
be unable to effectively function the next day - when will I be
released from this madness?

The "Just one more turn syndrome" eh.I'll bet you'll be stuck in your rome for weeks with your campaign.

[SimpleCourage47]

The team should really put a warning up about potential loss of friends,relatives,employment and education or at least provide links to sites that can help your family cope with not having you in their lives anymore, sad.

You might, might (im not promising anything) get the RSII-Syndrome off when you complete your campaign.

Highly unlikely though.

Oh lord. This is one of my problems. I fiind myself saying "Last turn than I'll do something else for a bit" and when the next turn comes, I find myself managing the cities or getting into some battle that carries me away for another turn and it repeats because one more turn seems so harmless and quick until it becomes overbearingly indulging :/

This and Mount and Blade are two of the worst games for "Just one more turn/one more day/one more battle, 3am what the hell?" moments

Problem is, once you finish a campaign the first impulse is to immediately start another as your main rival in the previous campaign or as a faction in a different theatre (North africa, far east, etc).

Vicious cycle

Company of Heroes Online was another addicting game as well.

PIC GOT TAKEN DOWN

[ithinkitsdead]

The disease never really dies....

I remember the first RS1 campaign I started (Pergamum) and I played from the minute I completed install around 8 P.M, and didn't stop until 8 A.M the next day. Didn't even know what time it was until my alarm went off, and I was completely baffled.

Get a crappier computer.
RSII crashes on my computer after 2 or 3 full-stack vs full-stack battles, or about 4-5 smaller ones. So I save before every battle and play until it crashes. Then the frustration of having to re-fight a battle I just won is enough to keep me from re-booting the game right back up again, so I take a break. Works perfectly.
