Anyone seen this already?
So basically a guy has been playing his Civ 2 savegame for over a decade
Now it’s far on the future where only 3 great civilization remains locked on an endless nuclear war.
It seems the world have turned into a wasteland, the fallout makes it nearly impossible to even farm

EDIT: They have an entire subreddit dedicated for it
Makes me glad I’m going to die sometime in the next 70 years.
yes it was on the front page of r/gaming today, and I don’t even have an account there
My record of an three month Civilization IV game as the Soviet Union looks like nothing now.
I don’t understand how anyone can keep a game like that going for so long.
saving ? and if you were wondering if he kept playing on the same computer, he could easily transfer the files into a new Computer as time goes by, I have save games from 2005 and I haven’t played them ever since
In case you didn’t notice, it means spending some of his free time over the course of 10 years to play the save game
All I can say is: We’ll see.
tell him to take screenshots
If he spent an hour a week playing this game for ten years, that’s still 522 hours, after he pretty much beat the game already.
Who gives a fuck?
Do you really give a fuck?
Do you really care that he’s spent so long conducting this experiment even though he’s maintained a job and a family while doing it?
It’s an interesting simulation, for sure. I’m surprised no one has reached a winning circumstance yet, though.
He does have screenshots
He also posted his savegame somewhere but i never played civ 2
I guess i’m off to the pirate’s bay
The real challenge with this would be keeping the AI from winning. I’d be very surprised if he didn’t have multiple opportunities to trigger a win.
