1. What motivates you to play Tribal Wars?
Tribal Wars is an addictive game. Out of all the games I have played, I have kept playing this one the longest amount of time, even though it's old, even though it has no real war graphics interface at all ... and some people have a problem playing a war game without any kind of battle screen at all ... I don't. The other side is that this is a game played with friends, so that's what has kept me playing also.
I have kept playing usually with the same team and I would love to play with them again in the future. I won't mention names here since I don't want to miss any, however I think they know who they are.
2. What do you like about Tribal Wars?
Some people might say that these two questions could have been merged into one, probably yes but there is still value and something that can be learned by answering this question on it's own too.
So what do I like about Tribal Wars? First of all, Tribal Wars is an RTS and I love RTS games. Tribal Wars requires no ginormous amounts of space on our PCs to be played, requires 0 amount of space actually and we know how much space modern games take. To everyone that says that nobody cares about space, well not everyone has SSDs of 2 terabytes of their PCs or laptops and with how modern games are evolving, even 2 terabytes are not enough if you install like 20 games.
So the fact that Tribal Wars requires no space is a plus since it can target more people.
However, there is a big group of people, mostly young people, who are used to games who have kind of a battle screen at least, so IMO Tribal Wars might need to have one too, if it wants to target said group of people ... but of course this needs to be well thought and tested because Tribal Wars also has a big userbase of veterans and don't know how this could be received.
I of course like the community built around the game and I'm trying to contribute, as little as I can for this community, because I love the game and value the friendships built over the years playing this game.
