yes. i really like dwarf fortress. i am completely retarded when it comes to playing it, but i'm fascinated watching someone who knows what they're doing make sense out of the total fucking mess on the screen. i'm fascinated by the stories people have about it.
idk if that makes me a fan but i really like it.
same deal with kenshi. or the sims (not that the game is super hard, but i'd rather watch someone play it than go through the whole setting up characters and setting up house and installing mods bullshit).

Have you ever been to an animal shelter in your country? What was it like? Did you volunteer there and play with the animals?
