I can barely play Napoleon. It lags horribly on lowest settings.
when the union's inspiration through the worker's blood shall run,
there can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun,
yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one?
but the union makes us strong.

Like Kip said, it's an overhead FPS for four players. It's free too, which is always a bonus.Originally Posted by Lorem ipsum

Meh. You might be able to handle the first few missions, they don't have too many enemies. Besides, its free, so it can't hurt to try

I don't really like FPS games either, they make me motion sick.

Re: Taking IH to RTS
Should I set up the poll thread?
Also, once mine installs, we should get a game going. What are everybody's Steam IDs?

Maybe we can get AoE or Stronghold going tomorrow when I get back from working. Heck, you guys could even go off on your own if you want, no need to wait for me.

Re: Taking IH to RTS
Well, I could understand FPS and motion sickness, but there's no more going on on the screen in Alien Swarm than in any given RTS or Total War game, but okay

Re: Taking IH to RTS
I think it has to do with all the contrasting shades and stuff, or maybe the repetitiveness of firing a gun in say CoD, idk, but after ~1 hour of playing a Shooter, I literally just cannot go on, I've gotta go outside and have a few deep breaths.

Re: Taking IH to RTS
Alien Swarm, most likely. I've been meaning to try it for ages and this finally gives me an opportunity. It's free too, for all those who don't yet own it.
