Title: Slow-paced game to listen to audiobooks to?
Post by: chipwich on January 24, 2016, 07:41:30 AM
I feel restless when just sitting down to an audiobook, and bored during the slower parts of a grand strategy game.

Can someone recommend a boring game to play while listening to audiobooks? I usually use paradox games, but I'm waiting for patches to eu4 and CK2

Bejeweled 3. Perfect game to zone out to.

I don't find EU4 boring at all. Of course, I have it run at speed 5.

I usually catch up with my podcasts when playing games, too. MMORPGs are good too, especially if you have played them for a while and don't need sound any more.

War Thunder, on the simulation-y modes.

Also, Euro Truck Simulator 2, probably Elite: Dangerous, EVE Online, Microsoft Flight Simulator ...

Listen to the Limetown podcast.  Great storytelling.
