Frustration

Post by Pumpakärnor »

Considering to stop playing Catan. It makes me frustrated and too often gives me the feeling of playing handcoved and/or gagged. Waiting for ages before any action is possible and when it finally is, a robber comes along. Just not fun when this state of paralysation occurs too often :(

This is what Catan is like. It's a relatively old game.

On it's own that isn't the biggest issue. But with most Catan games taking about an hour it can definitely start to feel like you are wasting your time with no moves to play. And of course you can't just quit (without a penalty) nor can you be AFK because you have to deal with every trade offer made not on your turn.

Try turn based Catan rather than live. Iv found the "frustrating situations" to be much more palatable for some reason.

I hate the robber. It would be amazing if we could at least get the "Friendly Robber" option.
