It's kind of one sided; if a girlfriend isn't interested in videogames, that doesn't make her a bad girlfriend. | ||

I mean, knowing that zerg can only build on creep is something that everyone with half a brain would grasp in the second that it took to tell them. The same with shields. I'm going to be honest here, if this impresses you, it sounds like your girlfriend still has trouble with her shoelaces. I'm not great at watching people play games in front of me, but kudos for you for not raging at this. I would slap my own mother if she took this long to build anything. | ||

I agree with this post entirely. Everything is labeled. How long would explaining vespene gas take? Not that long. I just gave my girlfriend StarCraft and let her play the single player missions to learn. | ||

Maybe its because i've played RTS all my life, but it seems more like he's shocked she can understand as well as most people would. | ||

In other words, she's after quality time with you. I'm not saying you're doing anything wrong, just always keep in mind that making this an enjoyable experience for the two of you is by having this something you do together. Have fun~ nice advice but i beg to differ... lol... just saying there are exceptions... like me, at first i really don't like SC cause i hate RTS games (but i'm a resident evil addict). i've been telling my bf that i will never like playing SC. to cut the long story short, he managed to teach me how to play. at first, i was really hesitant, but what the heck, i should learn to play so i could relate on his addictions. but after playing some games, reading TL, and watching pro, i became addicted to it. i even told him to create this TL account since he's been lurking in TL for some time already. now, i'm a resident evil and sc addict. i also chose protoss because he's playing terran and i don't like the appearance of zerg units. i'm also a bisu fanboy (or girl) hence the protoss race. to the OP: that is so cool, i hope your gf will appreciate SC, too ![]() | ||
