What's wrong with liking cats and dogs? Cats do like their owners if their owners treat them properly and they show their affection too. It's not as obvious as dogs but if you have the slightest bit of intelligence, you might be able to tell. True, cats are collected by crazy people, but that's because if you collect

I love my cats, but that's just a stupid statement.

Well a bigger issue is the AI. At Normal (or Prince, I believe?) difficulty any neighbor becomes very aggressive. I mean, it's entirely possible to indefinitely fend off invasions with a fortified city and a single ranged unit but it gets worse at higher difficulties due to the irrational and single-minded behavior of

In SC, you could go online and be social really easily. In SCII, at least WoL, everything online was so partitioned. Rather than

Oof, right during the whole Sim City thing too.

You're right, the story has very few details. But I'm not the one doing the judging.

He could've easily racked that up over 2-3 days, if not one. The article doesn't specify.

Rainforest deforestation is funding this crap?

You've clearly never been a parent. Unless you're breathing down their neck every moment, you can't stop your child from ever making a mistake. What, was she supposed to sit there every one of his play sessions?

He said it was possible to play offline, not that you have to. If you play online and edit the highways, it's saved on the servers. The fact that you can play online is a separate statement.

Bros before hos represents an integral part of gender dynamics that's embedded in human psychology via society and biology.
