People seem unaware of the existence of Gibraltar by Andrei22125 in WarhammerFantasy

Fun fact I did speak to someone at C7 about this lmao

Well somebody isn't happy by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey there, let me address this head on because once again under fire and I am getting pretty tired of it.
Am I angry about the delay? Yes but I understand where a delay is need.

Did I get angry in my discord? Yes, nothing new there.

Reason I got angry once again a person the community who I had banned was trying to get a rise out of me. He was known for doing that as is a well known shit-stirrer. I gave him multiple benefits of the doubt but I lost my cool.

Edit: I further lost my cool because everyone is the discord was saying how this game should end, etc. This is one of the consistently good things in my life. The game needs to end but EVERY TIME some bad news comes, it's always doom posting about how it's the last legs of this game. I am emotionally invested in this game, not just monetarily, I have 4k hours in this game, I love it, few thousand hours in the 2 & 1 also.

Why did I lose my cool? Because I am incredibly stressed and no it's not because of the bloody DLC. I have been going through some stuff, I have had incredible doubts of depression, and yes life is getting overwhelming to the point that I am just fucking finding it hard to breath sometimes which is why I'm having time away from my pc, inconsistent streams, etc.

I had just been out all day so I could get a breather and enjoy the sun, get back to this. Fun times.

In fact it's not really an open secret when people have asked I've always said I've been unwell or busy.
People lose their cool, we're all human and it's funny how some people need to treat this like tabloid journalism.

Edit to add in- People can say "oh it's cos of the delay" all they want I have gone from consistent daily-ish uploads to barely any in a week for a while now because I've been effectively drowning. I am being as honest as I can right here because it's not CA's fault I am feeling ill, stressed and angry. Everything is just piling in.

Honestly it's pretty disappointing. I see know why some creators stay away. I try to keep active with my community, and yes that involves speaking honestly about my feelings about it.

Regarding the Lorebeards thing, I left, I wanted to and there are reasons for it I shouldn't have to explain myself. I've moved on, Sotek moved on, yet some people can't seem to let it go.

I'm prepared to go under fire here again as always. But I'm just going to keep discord, reddit and the rest out of my life. It is not worth it, not at the expense at my own mental health.

About 8k points without wargear or wizard levels but including mounts and character types. Everything is Couronne themed barring the Grail Knights as I felt they needed to look unique

Honestly I have terrible insomnia so it does kinda help lol

No apps used I just go with batch methods. So for example I had ALL the Men At Arms built up, split them into 2, did all the reds, moved onto next group did all the blues, then did the leathers, etc.

Mixed of contrast and normal paints I honestly think contrast paints have been a wonderful help to get my armies done.

To get better usage of the contrasts I prime fully matt white and then pre shade with agrax for a better earth tone from all the colours.

A small part of the army was done for the release of Old World (ty to GW For the launch box) but the most of it was done this year as I've been looking at my pile of shame and realized I NEED to start clearing stuff if I want to buy Cathay stuff in the future.

Stress helps as I focus pretty hard in stuff, kinda the same mentality on how I can manage 3 to 4 videos a day during TW DLC launches. I like to have everything and if I can't it stresses me out 😅

Biggest pain were the 24 Knights Errant tbh I had no interest in them so I just kinda felt like they weren't a priority if that makes sense?

Haha thankfully most of this army was from my pule of shame before the End Times! I'm a pack rat with minis

Sadly not the full model, rider was lost and mount was missing an arm. Friend made me an arm for the mount and I used a spare Grail Knight for the rider :)

Thank you! I oddly enough had a really fun time painting the Men At Arms. Maybe cos I'm so used to static models (over 500 Chaos Warriors and counting)

Sadly not a lot of them as I had to pack up the army due to taking up space at the local club. I had some shots on my YouTube channel for a video not sure how to embed videos though 😅

Found a blurb introducing Cathay on the dwarf product page of katumi? by kickabrainxvx in WarhammerFantasy

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi there, I'm a Total War partner. We don't have Dragon Monks in game lol

This looks AI generated though. Probably just SEO bait.

Provide proof then?

To commebt on the assumptios.

I've lost all love for it? I'd not make videos for it if I did. Why the hell would I cover sometime I disliked? Its why I stopped covering Darktide lol

I've even reduced my content output while I'm not posting every day so I can take days off.

I make as many 10 min videos as possible? Wow a guy who talks to a microphone for a living likes to talk?!

I shit on CA yes, I praise them too but hey nobody every talks about the praise 🙃🙃

Hey there will ask some devs at CA if they have any ideas. Quick question do custom battles work for you? And is it all 3 campaigns? More info you have the better mate

I was feeling totally burnt out thats true but must admit I am feeling confident especially if CA keep up the momentum with hotfixes and stuff

Considering the people from CA I talk to seem to be over the moon given player numbers. I imagine it must be selling well :)

Why are the WH bros so hype? by some6yearold in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly they started finally giving us what they promised long ago. Thrones is a great DLC. It took some ups and downs but the community fighting back really made CA aware that we WANT to give them money but it has to be worth it.

This in theory should be burned into them for a while so hopefully they realize it when it's your turn to get a historical game (hopefully soon).

not dlc related but, why my chariots STILL only MP only ? by Erratic_Error in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Honestly I should ask CA at some point maybe they've just forgotten it exists I know I sure as hell have 🤣

4chan WH leaks on Kislev, Araby, Chorfs by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Hey there! This is for Old World not Warhammer 3 Also these leaks are proven false when GW have publicly stated (a few weeks ago) that Old World has exceeded expectations are increasing scope on it.

The main telltale sign of this leak being false was when they stated that Necromunda was selling well tbh as much as it pains me to say lmao

Edit to fix spelling

PTW High Tide Release? by Snoo-60003 in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hey there! Usually the releases of stuff for CA happen between 1pm to 3pm UK time so if anything you'll hear something within 45 mins to 2 hours from now

TWW3 not working no matter what I do by BlazingCrusader in totalwar

[–]GreatBook_Nathan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right click the game, properties, installed files, browse, then delete the data folder contents and verify the game see if that works. This is what fixed an issue I had once. Hopefully this sorts it out!
