Does anyone now how much longer a marathon game is compared to a normal game? I always play at normal game speed so i don't have a clue.
Normal = 500 turns.Does anyone now how much longer a marathon game is compared to a normal game? I always play at normal game speed so i don't have a clue.
This is another strong motivator for me to play Marathon.Marathon is indeed time consuming but my sense of historical realism cannot bear starting a war in one era and ending up halfway through the next by the time it ends. Seen another way, that means wars often lasting hundreds of years. Likewise, requiring decades and more to sail across an ocean doesn't work for me.
In practical terms, the game does require suspending disbelief around time but there is only so much of it I can swallow. Marathon makes it easier to stomach.
normal
i feel like the others are not the "real thing", and well games are long enuf alrdy so marthon etc. isn't my thing at all
And your spelling is awful so that leads me too think that you are a 8 year old.
You're slamming another user for three misspellings, with a single sentence that contains three mistakes? That's got to be satire, right?
3 extremely poor, hard not to notice mistakes. If they were minor then i wouldn't care, but really! Look at them!

Anyway, remember that personal attacks aren't allowed on this forum, so at least try to stick to the subject.
I once saw a screen shot announcing a culture victory after 400 hours of gameplay.

Compare to my first game on Quick, Settler, Tiny World at 16 hours for a culture victory.
Although that could have been someone like me who tends to slip into sleep in front of the monitor, wakes up 8 hours later, and immediately continues with his next turn. I think I once had 300+ hours on a regular Marathon game this way.
That's a long time. Especially for a 30-minute game.
