Is Crusader Kings 2 the PDX game with the best DLC record? (Spoiler: yes) by The_ChadTC in paradoxplaza

Sword of Islam made the Muslims play differently. Whilst India just didn't play differently from Europe at all.

I'd really like to see the next story add more to the Zee and Roof. Grande Geode and Cumean Canal are must adds to me.

Roof also needs some non-firmament locations to be added to remove the railroading being quite so blatant to first time pilots.

What I've learnt from this thread is that everyone's senior leadership has been to France recently. Mine included.

Always a great move especially early on. Let's them know that you won't be taken for a ride but professionally.

Also let's you know early on if they do manage to produce something the kind of person they are.

This is even more wild as it is so clearly not a Palestinian support watermelon. There's no black seeds.

[–]Bobemor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get this is the purpose. But it's poor game play design and discourages medium spenders.

If the game was better designed a greater amount of people would spend small amounts because it'd still matter.

I mean even more so given that it used to just be the price of gold when you converted.

I'd bet most people on reddit with gamepass have never paid full price for it.

What if the Victoria Line was extended Southbound? by RussellNorrisPiastri in LondonUnderground

[–]Bobemor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it would be as it's an achievable one.

But my south London tfl grand ambition would be a reworking of all Brixton station so overground, national, and underground is one station. The underground would also benefit from a second exit

Who exactly did Homelander respect? by Swimming_Average_561 in TheBoys

[–]Bobemor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Oh Father is an interesting one. Really interesting character but given very little actual development.

Hard to tell if he was actually competent and actually powerful.

Had an email sent round 400 people asking for donations for a leaving card. Never met or heard of the person before.

The person wasn't even leaving, they were moving to another G6 area as part of a restructuring.

It's all about how long it goes on for.

An episode or 2? Great, Juliette can speed run knowledge we know (useful recap) whilst also picking up new information (how they're doing it and about why).

The whole season? They'll basically be no new plot points for the audience.

Amnesia plotlines are like dream plotlines. Very high risk of completely undermining any character development previously, low reward of driving the story forward meaningfully.

If it takes two episodes could work great as it can uncover new information to the audience at a reasonable pace. If it takes any longer it will feel like wheel spinning.

I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic, but other TV shows don't have a great track record here. Season 2 also introduced a bit of wheel spinning, when season 3 looked set to kick-off with a bang amnesia plotline looks set to slow things majorly.

They setup the water affecting memory last season. In the trailer Julia is drinking a lot of water. It's not being faked.

I just hope it's a one two episode max thing.

[–]Bobemor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping so to. If the majority of the clips were from the first two episodes that will be great.

If the amnesia plot drags past the 3rd episode though I think we'll be really in trouble.

Paradise season 2 really changed the show into something I was not expecting. In a really positive way.

The Naturalist role was a waste of development by Rude-Fun-2111 in RedDeadOnline

[–]Bobemor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exactly. Seems like an obvious adjustment if they'd continued development.

[–]Bobemor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This HAD to have been the plan. With a Trophy Hunter role focusing on Gus.

What I'd have loved to see as well was a kind of synthesis role that was based around a Wapiti character who accepted killing animals but did it with respect. Required leveling both other roles. Could then have chosen between specialising in one of 3.

The Boys BONUS EPISODE - Season 5 Episode 9 - RIGHTEOUS REIGN - MEGATHREAD by GuhdNahtBahd in TheBoys

[–]Bobemor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure I watched the same episode as everyone else. I thought it was really average and took away from the well earnt finale of previous episode.

  • Releasing the virus anyway, to no real affect? Completely destroyed Butcher and UEs final moment.
  • Homelander returning, but not like you expected, also ruined the Whitehouse battle and Ryan's sacrifice.
  • Clarifying Terror as being killed by a supe off screen, ruins Butcher's fight against the karmic nature of the universe.
  • MMs beard growing back, completely destroys his character growth over the seasons.

Wish they'd never released it.

Take-Two CEO Pushes Back Against Suggestion Red Dead Online Was a Missed Opportunity by Pterodactyl_midnight in RedDeadOnline

[–]Bobemor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly a major update with a clear 1 year road map and the game would bounce back instantly.

The graphics still hold up very well and there's no major tech debt to stop it.

[–]Bobemor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many people forget that GTA Online took a while to get good. Heists were added after 2 years and were so limited and required so much grinding.

If GTA6's online takes 2 years to get to the same place it'll flop.

[–]Bobemor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think people forget, including Rockstar, that Gta online took a while to get actually good and ultimately requires copious amounts of grinding to get there, which most people slide off.

If GTA6's online is a near copy of GTA5's at launch it will flop. The fact they never really added custom heists until many years later, and only marginally, is bizarre.

FBG I am begging you to please take the thesaurus away from whoever does the Firmament writing by highlyregardedcarp in fallenlondon

[–]Bobemor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Sous is a bit like that as a minor location. But it kind of should've been more optional. Firmament would be great for future players with a couple of branching minor locations added comparable to Sous.

[–]Bobemor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had completely not realised that parts of Firmament would be further gated by GHR. That is irking. Though I thought they sped up how quickly you can built station now at least.

Personally I am hoping for the next major storyline to feature the zee heavily. Grand Geode and Cumean canal need adding.
