So my wife is convalescing from surgery and is home for a couple of weeks. I am playing nurse as she can't do much at the moment. She's pretty bored so I thought it would be a good time to show her what this "crazy dungeon thing" that I do every day is like.

Two words..."pretty funny".

She got hooked fast, telling me what to kill and what to avoid. She doesn't know all of the details of the game (but then, neither do I)..so some of her "help" is pretty humorous. When regen fighting, she panics because my health is low, even though my mana is full. And she always wants me to kill the "evil monsters" who have the worst impacts like corrosion and weakening.

Anyway...just wondering if anyone else has tried to introduce their partners to this game and what kind of results you had?

Cheers..........Z

My wife has no interest in this type of game. She would think I'm crazy for trying to get her to play it.

I tried it once with my wife. She liked the tutorial dungeon and won. But the first time she died, she got frustrated and never played again.

But after all, she is the archetyp of casual player, so I had no high hopes^^

My girlfriend has dutifully tried to get into DD several times over the years. Each time she got a bit further, so I'd use that as a gauge of how well the UI and tutorials were doing at the time She's quite good at the game now, but doesn't play often enough to remember all the little things that make DD tick, so she'll hit progression walls she passed previously and gets frutrated. Then we go back to playing LoL

It feels like this year the EU LCS got better, but NA stayed the same...

Anyway, I guess it would be more on-topic to mention that my wife and I sometimes play Divinity: Original Sin when we're not working on stuff. She gets bored with too much killing stuff all the time, but if other stuff is going on it's more interesting.
