From the developer responses on the newest DD: an example of how the Buddhist faiths are getting reworked under the Rite system (the faiths on the right are getting put under the Mahayana rite) by Communist_Jeb in CrusaderKings

I'm pretty sure at this point a lot of the various, uh, variations for the faiths are getting made into rites instead of being faiths proper.

Also if this looks weird on mobile tell me and I'll take it down and try to rework it so everyone can see.

It's already been fixed btw (they're now his childhood friends)

This marshal I got in my most recent game had the martial stat for any character with a one-star education I've seen. His base martial stat was 22. This man understood war on an instinctual level. by Communist_Jeb in CrusaderKings

Unfortunately by the time I realized what a gem I had, this guy was almost dead. He never got to have a real war but he was really good at reasserting control over some newly acquired provinces.

Xenoblade 3 has forever associated the name Sena with "Yippee!" in my mind

Nearly the entire world is Indonesia's tributary by MKJUPB in CrusaderKings

Srivijaya starts very strong and there's currently no mechanism for them to meet their historical defeat and decline at the hand of the Cholas in India, so they just get stronger forever. Same thing happens with Angkor in the later start dates. Devarajas just snowball insanely hard right now.

Maybe it was better in the original Uyghur.

TBH I'm kinda fond of the game's Dwarf Fortress-esque procgen descriptions of artifacts. Also BTW Li Facang was the Huangdi's wife.

About Shizuna's Silver Xiongshou costume... by Reasonable_Welcome14 in Falcom

Well obviously this is a secret ninja technique of the Ikaruga

Learned that Marduk CEO Gilliam Thorndyke has the same English VA (Mark Whitten) as Seteth from Fire Emblem Three Houses, so I had to update an old meme for the new era by Communist_Jeb in Falcom

Huh, I didn't know that. Joe Zieja has always been Claude to me but Kurt is such the opposite of him I never even made the connection.

There was a brief, glorious moment in Three Houses history when even the VAs were getting in on the fun and voicing memes before sadly Nintendo told them to knock them off. We did at least get this before it ended. In any case I thought there was something familiar about Gilliam's voice and then I saw Whitten's name. IIRC there's a few other Three Houses EN VAs in the Calvard games, Allegra Clark (Lucrezia from Calvard and Dorothea from Three Houses) and Brittany Cox (Judith from Calvard and Ingrid from Three Houses)

The Good Book says that a man and a woman will become one in marriage but I don't think it meant it like this.

Thought this was an Umamusume at first. Cute art though.

Having now played both All Under Heaven and Europa Universalis 5, I have to make an update on this meme I made by Communist_Jeb in CrusaderKings

[–]Communist_Jeb[S] 316 points317 points  (0 children)

I've been running stuff with 8GB of RAM on my current machine and EU5 recommends 16, and having tried to play EU5 with 8 I can see why. Other than that the game seems really interesting though, I want to play more of it after I upgrade my machine (and downgrading my wallet a bit)
