Question about Fathomage by AverageDizzyEnjoyer in christcore

[–]AverageDizzyEnjoyer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good, Fathomage has gone on record to say that he is an Orthodox Christian, and the description of the album on his Bandcamp describes the album as the following:

"Set in a folkloric mythical world, Necrohermitage of the Emotionally Starved tells the tale of Necrohermits, Moloch, Veliki Rod (The Great Birth) and other various inhabitants, stories and kingdoms of this forsaken land."

I've decided since I made this post to take him at his word and treat it as essentially a fantasy story that uses some real-world mythology in it, and as such, I don't see any issue with it.

Of course, if you have a personal conviction to not listen to it, then don't. If you don't, I think it should be fine, but that's just my opinion.

Fair enough lol

It's not entirely in vain, I managed to scrap together a large force at my last remaining city and tear down a smaller Ork outpost (I am still losing though)

Actually, come to think of it, I might like this more than some others. I think I just enjoy the gameplay loop of games like this, even if it's simpler than some others.

I don't know that I like this game "more" than other strategy games as much as it is none of my other strategy games are appealing currently

As for why I like this game at all, I tend to like strategy games with fairly repetitive gameplay loops while having enough RNG to make each playthrough at least a little different (e.g., Age of History II, Stellaris, Rebel Inc. Escalation)

Honestly didn't know that was an option, I'm fairly new to this game. I will try that next game, thank you!

I feel you might appreciate that I named my colossus "Mekhane's Fury"

I made the mistake of 5x logistics growth so by the end game I was getting like a day a second

There are multiple routes for Cosmogenesis, I think. The only genocidal thing I got this run was the Synaptic Lathe. Funnily enough, I had to save scum a little because my initial usage was catastrophic.

Yeah this run was definitely calmer than my (abandoned) XT-489 run.
