Sounds like a diluted Rainbow Road. Nice to work to, you can forget it's playing yet still enjoy it. |

| I've had that same thought, of needing to get out of the house more. But... screw that. There's nowhere to go. I'd go over to friends' houses.... if I wanted to pass out from boredom while watching them play Call of Halos or whatever damn stupid AAA game is big right now (if it's not obvious, I ten... |

| I recongize the process you describe, having experienced it myself - this sounds like information overload and nothing specific to eye contact. For me, the problem is caused when too many interacting simulations are loaded in to memory at once, and memory runs out, so the brain shuts down (faints) a... |

| Go with the latest Ubuntu LTS - if it runs for you (a lot of Linux OSes I've tried are riddled with bugs). Don't use a virtual machine if you're planning to game on it - even Tiberian Sun is a bit laggy running in a VM via Wine on a £2000 SLI laptop. If security is your chief concern you can always ... |

| If all you want is never-ending grinding then get Torchlight II. It's a local game, so no worries about some corporation ripping you off down the line or switching off the servers. Two MMOs in a franchise I played went down the pan. If you want really good looking armour sets, play Lords of the Fall... |

| I love playing video games and have other hobbies as well. I'm almost 23 and beating a video game isn't one of my priorities because I know need to get out of the house and other hobbies are good to have, too. I keep having that train of thought and decided to do something about it, so went to a cl... |

For me it has to be something that requires you to make important decisions quickly. There needs to be an element of pressure, and the ability to employ unusual tactics.
Story-rich preferred as long as graphics aren't hideous as a compromise. |

| Bullet-hell games of any sort and fighting games are what I'm best at. I also like roguelikes (either action or turn-based, both are fine), strategy games, puzzle games, and platformers. I dont do RPGs or story-focused things. I need a high level of difficulty in a game for it to hold my attention.... |

| It's a simulator, so CPU threads and RAM are your priority. The graphics aren't that great in Cities, but you can mod seven bells out of it like Skyrim. 6GB wasn't enough RAM for somebody else I played with - I have 16GB and it runs fine until you hit about 150k-200k citizens. When I reached about 2... |
