Why the gently caress would anyone let a game run in the background just so they can check on it every 20 minutes? I kinda though the whole point of video games was to engage your brain and distract you for escapism. It's some seriously dumb poo poo and a sign that points to a total collapse in western society.

Sorry dude your theory doesn't hold water.

idle games are for people like me who dont even bother to make their brains work anymore. its not a game, its a technically socially acceptable excuse to stare at nothing for hours on end

There's a flight sim game where you can fly from London to New York and people that aren't training on it to be pilots actually try to land it? Because I'd market that motherfucker as a fiery plane crash simulator.

Instead I'll check this retarded forum every ten seconds to make sure everyone knows my autism is greatest.

Idle games, and the people who play them, frighten me its just bigger numbers but the same game at different intervals, all depending on how early you started playing and they have cash shops like multiply your numbers by 10 for an hour that makes no sense why would you buy that and hten I remember star citizen

# ? Jul 20, 2015 03:20 |

and then the numbers dont even get bigger they just change the suffix and expect you to think its bigger oh wow now im earning 10Q per minute instead of 10q. like if you dont read the instructions/know their code for higher order numbers you'd have noidea the game is different

Yesterday I got an ad on my phone for the Mobile RPG Strategy Something game that "Doesn't even need you." It's a game that they advertise will play itself and you don't have to interact with it at all. This game doesn't want or need you! Give us your money and then gently caress right off!
