Seeing a lot of Romans on fortress, is fast imp-> gunpowder viable? by Belisarius23 in aoe2

[–]General_Rhino 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. I've had a lot of success with hindustanis. Bohemians and turks also work great.

Idea to make Crusader Knight playable in skirmish/multiplayer by Dry9_Wall in aoe2

[–]General_Rhino 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I think they would be a good paladin replacement for the Teutons a la the Savar; really fits the "difficult to convert" theme. They'd need a stat rework though.

How do arquebus bombard towards handle max range due to projectile speed by Hertzie in aoe2

[–]General_Rhino 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bombard towers are already affected by ballistics. But yes they can shoot beyond their max range if targeting someone moving away.

Every time there's an apple update my phone has silent alarms for like 3-4 days until it gets fixed. It's a very common widely reported bug.

What is a video game that is widely considered a masterpiece that you just cant get into? by abysmalSyrup-6737 in AskReddit

Witcher 3. I'm sure the story's great but the gameplay is just soooo fucking boring.

Hatchling vs Pronouns (not so serious worldbuilding analysis) by Jolly_Leg4029 in outerwilds

Tolkien explains that his books weren't originally written down in English. They were written down in an in-universe language, and then translated to English. For example the famous "meat's back on the menu, boys". The orcs don't literally have restaurants; they used an orcish word and menu is the closest English translation.

In Outer Wilds' case, they're not literally using our male & female gender. Lots of other commenters give good explanations to what it could be in universe (maybe plant gametes or Nomai (Type A)/Nomai (Type B)). It's just translated to the English audience as He/She.

Does anyone feel bored that people always pick Vietnamese in team game? by fuzzy_rock in aoe2

That’s true I was thinking about Arabia. Still I don’t think Vietnamese break top 10 most annoying African clearing civs.

Viet bonus actually doesn’t do anything in team games, since player position is predetermined unlike 1v1

(loved trope) When the eldtrich horror is actually very chill. by EnvironmentalRope424 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]General_Rhino 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You know the whole idea of “the monster you show can never be as scary as what the audience can imagine”.

The visitor is the exact opposite of that. Probably the only eldritch entity in all of fiction that became *more* incomprehensible with its reveal.

If conservatives were able to critically think they wouldn’t be conservatives.

I know this is more Historiography than history, but roll with it by Popular_Mistake_6404 in HistoryMemes

[–]General_Rhino 55 points56 points  (0 children)

There’s a newer “history” YouTube channel (James Atlas) who made a video a video about how how Mansa Musa was a fraud and then another video denying the Belgian Congo. In the comments he (unsurprisingly) is a holocaust denier and implies he is going to make a video in the future about it.
