I really enjoy table games but don't have the desire or ability to set them up and play all the time.
Domionions fits that gap nicely.

Hold on, I thought that playing computer games is a hobby. Well for some people gaming is a lifeform, I gotta admit, but those lads are just ehm...sick a bit. ...for the "normal people" gaming is a hobby.

I guess the difference would be in that instead of saying "my hobby is computer games" you'd say "my hobby is Dominions 3".

Some games can be like that, you don't really play "computer games", you just play World of Warcraft, Ultima Online, Dominions, etc. (there's no time or need for anything else ).

Yep, you are right actually. I guess everyone is focusing on 1 game. I used to play WoW only for a couple of months for example, but it was just boring after that period, also I had no time to play it anymore, since you can't do anything in WoW if you cannot play when raids are on.
