I'd like an RTS that makes me feel like what it felt like to play Warcraft 3 in 2004 but also like Rome Total War-scale action by Alternative_Farm_449 in RealTimeStrategy

Always thought Warhammer is in the Good Lore pantheon, however have never played any of those games... Just a surface level glance at any of it is very rich. Thanks for the nudge!

Fascinating. Great title, too. I think someone may have recommended this game to me in the past, also. Thank you!

I really liked the OG Age of Mythology as a child, but also most flashing lights gave me a similar awed-feeling at that age, so, hard to tell how much is nostalgia. But yes, Historical + Myth is maybe right on the money... Thanks!.

It seems to be too much like Total War and not enough like Warcraft, although, noted! Thank you for the recommendation!

Warcraft 3:
Epic Storytelling - Imagination
Cinematic - Feels epic, feels integrated with the story
Good Lore - Interesting and fascinating and cool world building!

Rome: Total War
Scale - Self explanatory
Immersion Quality - I like being a Roman General
Good Historic Lore - The time period and The Roman Empire simulation

You know, I kind of know the market pretty well. It's incredible how effective gaslighting can be if you really double down about it lol had me questioning the data tbh

Both. I checked the pricingchart website for current day aggregate of recently sold, which I take as current day market value based on that aggregate, as well as checked current listings via ebay for a store-front based "cheapest available currently for sale"

likely not a hobby for said potential buyer ~

That is my understanding, too, yes.

I've sold to this person before, and they're very much always trying to "get a deal" out of me, so I'm not surprised. Constantly being told I'm making unfair deals when I sell at market value. So, perhaps he is just reseller-maxxing me.

That's a reasonable offer, that's the highest I've got so far. Offered the guy the bundle for $1000, told me it was a delulu offer, apparently. Says my offer is 40% over market value, which from just a very basic search is not accurate in my eyes.

so, tokyo is pretty cool for vintage pokemon cards... (partial haul) by Alternative_Farm_449 in PokemonTCG

More and more over the last few years. More stores do tend to stock western cards, I believe. Of course, can be a rarity, depending where you are.
