1400+ hours and still surprising
I may be biased. Putting in 1400+ hours (on Steam) into a game may be closer to obsession than enjoyment - I let you be the judge. Mind you, Battle Brothers isn't just a captivating game that let's you simulate life (and death, above all else) of a rugged group of middle-age'ish mercenaries (fishermen, beggars, poachers, farmhands most of the time..), with demanding turn-based combat that feels like chess at times, a gruesome injury system, wide array of weapons that have their advantages and downsides, dark-grey choices and many heads to chop off. It is also a game that runs extraordinarily well alongside corporate All Hands meetings and allows you to make 2-3 choices while sharepoint is struggling with spitting out that updated excel sheet. And it is a game that - like no other - will teach you to lose, again and again. And losing becomes fun, because suddenly your knights in shining armour became a hobbling, one-eyed group of efficient killers with bad knees, traumatized minds, but experienced and well equipped, able to handle the most dangerous foes that you were running away from 20 hours ago. It's a game where gritting your teeth is added to the "one more turn" feeling you get in the Civilization series, but the outcome can be so much more rewarding, when all odds are against you but a well placed strategic choice makes the difference between getting out alive, or fertalizing the neverending plains (which get individual, procedurally generated names). Give it a try, get yourself killed, have fun digging yourself out of the gutter, realizing that the adaptions and changes you've made it skill decisions, positioning of your mercanaries and choice of weapons simply makes a huge difference. Take up raiding caravans, make enemies, or trade between towns, squeezing out money building on the economic system in the game. Run errands, or run into beasts and sell their pelts. Or run down brigands, barbarians and nomads, earning their pay.
