This shouldn’t surprise me –I do a lot of programming for fun– but it still does somehow.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoProgramming is a creative activity though. What are these? > Welcoming passengers, offloading baggage, refuelling large aircraft, pushing aircraft back for departure and a further array of exciting tasks await you. Exciting tasks.
- lmm 3y agoIt's just the fulfiling part of the job, without any of the bullshit. It may not be "creative" or "exciting", but it's satisfying.
- mrcsno 3y agoEuro Truck Simulator was the game that this finally click for me. I think under all different game mechanics -- games like OpenTTD, Factorio, RimWorld, Dwarf Fortress, Farming Simulator, Euro Truck Simulator, Minecraft, Civilization etc -- all scratch the same itch of being able to set uour own goals and work towards them through an evolving but intuitive gameplay loop.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoI think I'll never understand. I see all that stuff as the bullshit I don't want to deal with and flying the plane as the actual exciting task.
- slipperlobster 3y agoSome people just like working down task lists. Some people just like a peek behind the curtain of big operations (like an airport, farm, etc). Not every game is meant for everyone :)
