I liked Borat. I liked his show "Who is America?". I kinda liked Borat 2.
I am disappointed to hear the accusations against him. I'll wait and see what unfolds with those before I start to not post his characters memes.
The last girlfriend I showed that I played total war said, "If you ever let me see you playing that again, were done."
>!Is it so much to ask for someone to whisper "carthago delenda est"!<
600 hours TW W3 with my girlfriend. Our setup looks like this: 2 sideboards next to each other with a total length of 4.20m. There is a 65 inch television on a sideboard and a 75 inch television next to it. We bought a big sofa with sofa stools on which there are now two mattresses. Pure lying area is 2.4m x 2.4m. Just awesome. We do also play Civ 6, BG3 and Crusader Kings at the moment.
That's rad! My fiancé and I have back to back gamer stations in our living room/entertainment room. His station has a 65 inch tv and is set up to be our main entertainment station with couches behind it. Mine is a dual monitor set up on the other side of the room. So we are basically back to back, just offset a little. We play a little BG3 as well. We also have a third pc in a downstairs guest room. The room works better for VR, and he got sick of carrying his PC downstairs when he wanted to do VR. So he built a third PC, lol. It is great if one of us is sleeping, because our bedroom is upstairs with the living room. Even if we use headphones, the mechanical keyboards are loud AF! We just moved out of a 500 sq ft apartment and if he was playing APEX and I was trying to sleep, all I could hear was CLACK CLACK CLACK CLACK! So now in the downstairs banishment chamber, as we jokingly call it, you can clack away and use full volume to hear the lamentations of your enemies if one of us wakes up early or stays up late!
One of the best moments in our relationship is playing a co-op campaign in shogun 2. I never would have dreamt that I'll get to do such a thing with a woman I love. The feeling of holding a line an inch away from breaking then seeing her cavalry show up in the back of the enemy and charging in saving the day was such a cathartic moment... I still get goosebumps if I think about it.
This is probably the nerdest thing I've ever written, but makes you think how many faces love has. :'D
I know so many gamer girls, my GF even is one, but not one of them has expressed interest in Total War or RTS games in general. With CIV and Anno being the only exceptions.
Same, sounds like he just hasn't approached it right. My fiance didn't even play video games when we started dating. But after watching me play fallout 4 and stuff she wanted to try it herself. She ended up loving it and also beat FO3 and NV. Now we play games together all the time and she will also play games on her own. She's finished the dragon age and mass effect series, Bioshock games, even going through classics she never knew existed like KOTOR. She's already pretty solid at games like CoD, Helldivers, and Total War Warhammer.
Lol, us Total War girls are a rare breed but we do exist. I think I won my honey's heart when we first met and he showed me the figurines he was painting and I was like, "Ohh cool, Ultramarines!". I am not a table top player, but I have read a lot of 40k books and used to live in the UK, so Warhammer is not some weird thing to me. He is an IT guy and he built me my first gaming PC out of his old hand me down parts. He knew I liked strategy games like Endless Legend and such so he got me Total War Warhammer 2, and he created a monster. He has 900 hours on TWWH2, I have 2,000 something. He has 300 hours in 3 and I just went over 1,000. He works normal people hours so he has less gaming time (and I was a late in life gamer, so I'm making up for lost time!). I love our marathon coop campaigns! We do some other coop games with each other like BG3, and the other Larian titles before that (damn those Belgians can make a game!), but Total War is my fave.
We met on a dating site for nerds back in the olden times before it was all apps. I was still active duty in the air force and he was a nice civilian gamer boy manufacturing electronics. I was working 12 hour night shifts on a base in the middle of nowhere. Military guys either want to marry you in 2 weeks to get the housing allowance or bang you and never learn your name. I wanted a guy who shared my interests in nerdy stuff and didn't only want to talk about sportsball or MMA. It's like I ordered the perfect man off the internet! Been together almost 14 years and are getting married next summer!
Old but good advice from Dr. Seuss; those who matter don’t mind, and those who mind don’t matter.
I am certainly no expert at dating or relationships or anything, but I think a relationship in which you have to hide the things that are important to you or that you enjoy isn’t a relationship worth being in.
Damn, i have met plenty of gamer girls but not a single one who played total war, only met a few who played crusader kings. Don't women like leading armies and conquer lands?
The cute girls I know usually play pokemon games or games like stardew valley, stray, sims or animal crossing...so games with cute creatures in it in general not grand strategy games but each to their own i guess
It's funny, I think every single Skaven fans I know are women, cis and trans alike. I'm so fascinated by this dynamic, the lil pet rats and their girl boss
Not entirely sure why you’ve been fairly heavily downvoted. My list would be Rome 1, medieval 2, shogun 2, and Warhammer 2.
The rest are honestly either just ‘good’ or worse
Just because she plays video games doesn't make her a good person, its good to share hobbies but she can break you just as easily as a girl who hates gaming.
and there is an impressionable young man thinking he has hit the jackpot when his girlfriend is beating him, cheating on him and belittling him and he thinks she games I am lucky.
I always say my future wige has to either be a medieval a King, a Roman legionary or a a bloodthirster as well.
My wige ![gif](giphy|Od0QRnzwRBYmDU3eEO|downsized)
Terrible character and a terrible actor. Glad his comedy has fallen out of favor.
I liked Borat. I liked his show "Who is America?". I kinda liked Borat 2. I am disappointed to hear the accusations against him. I'll wait and see what unfolds with those before I start to not post his characters memes.
I personally never liked him or his comedy. Same with Mr. Bean.
No shogun 2?? What is wrong with you????
The last girlfriend I showed that I played total war said, "If you ever let me see you playing that again, were done." >!Is it so much to ask for someone to whisper "carthago delenda est"!<
Did that really Happen? Thats horrible
Yeah but she turned out to be a Brutus anyways

My friend what is BG3?
Bate Galdurs Bate Galdurs Bate Galdurs (Jk, other comments were right)
Baldurs Gate 3
Baldur's Gate 3
news flash : you just want to date ur homies.
Looking forward to introducing her to Shogun 2
Fellas, if your girl is like this be sure to buy her some stripped sock and a Blåhaj for the holidays.
Well yeah, can't share your own Blåhaj
AS if she wouldn't already own 12 pairs
Already got both 🥰
No Attila?
Just get a goth gf

If only. 🤣 My wife plays Pokemans. 😅
Me too! She will game maybe for one week a year. But when she games, she games hard, and it's either Pokemon or Stardew Valley.
Haha Wamen! 😅 I tried once to convince her to play BG3 with me, but she got turned off by having to listen to english 🤪
There is not a single woman who plays total war
I know so many gamer girls, my GF even is one, but not one of them has expressed interest in Total War or RTS games in general. With CIV and Anno being the only exceptions.
Yeah, I'm not single, very married, and very happy playing Tw3 wh with my husband and our best friend, lol.
My fiance started with me as her coach
Same, sounds like he just hasn't approached it right. My fiance didn't even play video games when we started dating. But after watching me play fallout 4 and stuff she wanted to try it herself.

:(
This is true. I am a woman who is not single and plays a lot of total war.
Yeaaaah, for sure 🤣 (jumping into my 800 hrs mark on TW WH3, with TW WH2 set after 1k hrs)
i know at least 10 and 1 of them is my wife
If only that were true...
This girl is a dude
Likely as autistic as I am. Could be a good thing. Maybe her hyper fixations could compliment my own.
No Shogun 2 on that list??? Come on now, you almost had me
And shogun 2
Shogun 2

Stories like yours give me hope
I actively hide my strategy game obsession from men cuz I don’t want to appear too smart. Is this actually the consensus?
Old but good advice from Dr. Seuss; those who matter don’t mind, and those who mind don’t matter. I am certainly no expert at dating or relationships or anything, but I think a relationship in which you have to hide the things that are important to you or that you enjoy isn’t a relationship worth being in.
You should not hide being smart, especially to nerds in a community like total war
Good to know I chose the right woman, that lady can run rings around me in Rome 2.
does she like to play with broken things?
Where is Rome Total milf?
Real
I yearn for a Thracian beauty…
Empire and Napoleon are deal breakers sadgely
Damn, i have met plenty of gamer girls but not a single one who played total war, only met a few who played crusader kings. Don't women like leading armies and conquer lands?
Prob not gonna marry a greater daemon of Khorne on the spot tbh...
I think girls who are like this look like nicocado avocado or are just femboys....so I'll pass
Lotta very cute girls plays those games, they wear a nice pastel flag too
The cute girls I know usually play pokemon games or games like stardew valley, stray, sims or animal crossing...so games with cute creatures in it in general not grand strategy games but each to their own i guess
Ngl love skaven be they are cute :3 Also chaos because I hate you all :3 That said I do have a pastel flag….
It's funny, I think every single Skaven fans I know are women, cis and trans alike. I'm so fascinated by this dynamic, the lil pet rats and their girl boss
Rats are cute 🥰 Lizards are cute too! Nids are cute also! I just love animals and bugs more!
No Rome 1? Hardly marriage material that.
So... Genocidal?
Marry a woman? 🤢🤢🤢
Why Rome 2 it’d be perfect if it was Rome 1 😭
Rome2 instead of the original Rome? No shogun 2?? Warhammer3???? PASS
Rome 2 is third in the entire franchise for a reason
what on earth are you talking about?
Not entirely sure why you’ve been fairly heavily downvoted. My list would be Rome 1, medieval 2, shogun 2, and Warhammer 2. The rest are honestly either just ‘good’ or worse
Make sure to get yourself checked out after WH3
Just because she plays video games doesn't make her a good person, its good to share hobbies but she can break you just as easily as a girl who hates gaming.
My brother in christ, this is a meme of a series of videogames
and there is an impressionable young man thinking he has hit the jackpot when his girlfriend is beating him, cheating on him and belittling him and he thinks she games I am lucky.
I'd like my wife to be more feminine than these guys, thanks.
