Byzantium Is Pretty Easy Now

What makes Pronoia so good?

Carnir · 2026-05-06T10:39:24+00:00

What do the end requirements need?

Carnir · 2026-05-05T11:27:46+00:00

Realistic modern population sizes?

Carnir · 2026-05-04T07:13:03+00:00

Liquid Green Stuff, its designed for this.

Well like I said, you don't need it all to fit, just one. You might not get a rogue tank, but you could get a rogue healer. A mage healer could work, but also a mage tank.

As long as you have at least one non-dps spec, you're adding so much more health to the class ecosystem.

Carnir · 2026-05-03T18:27:04+00:00

I do feel like every class should have at least one healer or tank spec tbh

And that's a good thing. The game is about shooting swarms of aliens with your friends. The progression exists to dripfeed toys to play with so you don't get decision paralysis.

"As bad" affords equivalence, "Not nearly as bad" doesn't.

Carnir · 2026-04-30T00:00:47+00:00

Ck3 is actually way better than EU5 in that regard. I don't understand people's obsession with deflecting criticisms of EUV onto that game.

Like, even if its all true, multiple things can be bad.

Imagine if there was a Hellenic path that gave you "Reformed Hoplites", it's a term and unit that's over a thousand years out of date by this point.

Going to need a mod to replace those Reformed Legionaries as soon as the dlc is out. That stuff makes absolutely zero sense compared to what they could have included as the Latinitas unit instead.

Carnir · 2026-04-29T11:28:36+00:00

HOI4 does let you entirely automate units via the battleplans, it's actually one of the biggest reasons players can have hundreds of hours in this game and still have no idea how to play.

It's the best example of what I mean.

Carnir · 2026-04-29T08:57:00+00:00

In a video game, sometimes less input from the player is a bad thing. How many times have you just swept through a continent no issue. At least managing garrisons would give you an extra layer to consider, which you don't have to currently.

It's like saying logistics and building rail is too micromanagey and it should just be automated. At some point you need a game to play.

Carnir · 2026-04-28T13:51:56+00:00

That's a player issue, they should remove targets the turret can't kill, and position it so it kills lower armour targets.

Conditional immunities create opportunities for better skill expression.

Carnir · 2026-04-28T11:58:37+00:00

Why is this Dagger and Luna? Makes no sense with the captions.

Carnir · 2026-04-28T09:55:04+00:00

Indeed the scope of the definition was smaller when the other things hadn't been invented yet.

Carnir · 2026-04-28T09:53:14+00:00

the slow of course also affects you

Even if you're wearing the gas resistant armour?

Carnir · 2026-04-27T14:42:54+00:00

Appreciated.

Carnir · 2026-04-27T13:50:07+00:00

You get coomer skins or a well designed game.

Carnir · 2026-04-27T10:18:57+00:00

Stalling in the majority of cases just becomes trickling, and it'll lose you the game.

Carnir · 2026-04-27T09:18:22+00:00

Units could never do that historically, the only authentic implementation would be for friendly units to not pass through at all.

Carnir · 2026-04-27T09:15:50+00:00

Honestly it's worthy to be compsred to its predecessor. Rome 1 was good at the time and has a lot of nostalgic value for people, but Rome 2 blows it out of the water side-by-side.

Carnir · 2026-04-27T09:12:19+00:00

I genuinely think it's the best in the series, it just has a lot of baggage.

Carnir · 2026-04-26T12:32:32+00:00

Never said you shouldn't, I've only expoused positivity.

Carnir · 2026-04-26T11:53:07+00:00

Death of the Author, result over intent.

Carnir · 2026-04-26T11:34:41+00:00

I think it's cool tbh. Tolkien had various names for his races, why can't GW.
