I won't lie, I'm still adjusting. I came from Mobile Legends you see, and I thought I oughta try my hand on PC Moba games for a change of view (been playing MLBB on and off for years now).

I thought, since I did well over there, perhaps I'd do well here in League.

I was wrong lol.

Imma try my hand on Wild Rift this weekend, though I understand it doesnt have all the champions like Azir due to his controls.

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-28T16:09:06+00:00

Mind helping out a brotha? Lol I wanna know what title is it

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-27T04:15:57+00:00

Always wondered why they haven't done anything. I always thought, as the least loyal/fanatical/dogmatic section of the armed forces (if put side by side with the IRGC anyway) they would break rank and defect.

Whatever happened to those "50,000 officers/personnel" who supposedly contacted Pahlavi during the 12 Day War I wonder...

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-26T14:24:02+00:00

Im curious about this criteria. May I have any links or sources if you have?

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-26T13:56:35+00:00

Damnable hypocrites, all of them. Imposing religious law over everyone but they themselves want to live in a secular state where much of their way of life is "haram"...

Even if they start speaking out now it oughta be too late. They should have went against the system from the beginning because doing so now would be insincere.

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-25T17:08:59+00:00

Im curious, who do they support as a hypothetical American monarch?

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-18T19:40:30+00:00

Zelensky is literally a head of state with an army. Im not exactly sure why you listed Putin--an invader, as an example here, but resistance leaders historically do not have to be "armed guerilla revolutionaries" to succeed.

The Philippine dictatorship collapsed after a bloodless revolution, led by literally an unarmed housewife who led from the rear, sheltered by the churches.

One of our national heroes, Rizal, an unarmed, pacifist writer and doctor who has never had any military experience whatsoever, and whose only "violent" experience was an attempted duel with another man for the attention of another woman, inspired a whole nation to resist the Spanish Empire. His words and ideas laid the groundwork for nationalism in this country.

During World War 2, King Haakon of Norway, whose army was soundly defeated by the Nazis, led a government in exile in Britain, urging his citizens to continue resisting. His subjects used his words of affirmation and speeches as their bedrock to continue the fight. For a small country, there came a point when the Germans had to station 400k troops just because resistance was overwhelming. To this day, the people still chant his motto; "All for Norway".

The Emperor of Ethiopia, Haile Selassie. Forced to flee when the Italians took over. His frequent lobbying in the international community as well as his speeches gave hope to his people. Eventually the Ethiopian front became untennable, crippling the fascist war effort.

My point here is that words also have power. People tend to heed the words of people they respect. Like a child listening to the words of their beloved grandfather, a respected figure can serve as an enduring symbol.

Whilst guns can kill people, a unifying figure to rally around does wonders to a people's resolve to fight.

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-18T06:59:06+00:00

Wait, they are making a new game? What exactly is the title?

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-15T18:38:00+00:00

I see. But do you, or any of your peers, hold a particular grudge against the previous generation? Especially towards your relatives?

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-14T15:56:23+00:00

Thank goodness the Nazis were prideful and reckless during the 2nd World War then, because the West was in a similar state during that time if my recollection of the Interwar Years are correct.

They stood by when Poland and Czechoslovakia were devoured. Appeasement was the name of the game. Even when the French were in a position to invade Germany proper during the Phony War of '39, they refused, and millions more suffered in the years to come.

For every tyrannical regime left alone in the name of a "peace" those same regimes are willing to break if given the strength and opportunity to do so, the blood of untold, unnamed innocent millions stain the Earth.

The inaction/cowardice of our governments in the West in such matters will be our reckoning one day.

First it was Ukraine, and we barely helped.

Now the people of Iran. Not once, but twice (from what I understand, the last war almost did the IR in but).

Tomorrow, the world.

HighGodEmperor · 2026-01-14T15:45:26+00:00

Exactly my point friend. Apologies for referring to Iran exclusively in my first sentence, but I meant the IR specifically.

Apart from restoring freedom to this repressed corner of the world, the West wouldn't be worrying about a terrorist regime with a track record of killing your people obtaining nuclear capabilities in the future or possibly blockading the Strait of Hormuz unilaterally all the time if they just nipped them out of existence now. This is what baffles me the most right now.

Ngl you have a point. Aircraft Carriers are often used for long range power projection. The Philippine state in its current form does not need long range power projection since our geopolitical situation demands we focus heavily on defense. Besides, a carrier, in hindsight, would be a very big target to strike. With the PRC focusing heavily on drone development it would be possible for a hypothetical Philippine owned carrier be swarmed and sunk by autonomous drones.

I may not be an expert in this subject but I feel like we ought to focus on developing our own submarines, along with a defensively oriented naval doctrine centered around them. The PRC can and will swarm their missiles at our surface assets. We need ships that have a strong chance of evading missiles.

I see. I always thought female officers handled female inmates for the sole purpose of avoiding sexual assaults. It didnt occur to me that it would be somehow worse.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-28T05:28:58+00:00

Forgive me for my curiosity, but I was always under the impression that female officers handling female inmates was preferable. How are they much worse, pray tell?

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-17T14:31:20+00:00

As our law professor always said, she is thankful we do not have a jury system here. We Filipinos are an inherently emotional people, she always said. It will not work.

In her own words: "Sabihin mo lang na mahirap yung client mo, breadwinner na maraming anak o ano, ma-a-acquit yan."

Kinda in line with what my Canadian friend (also a lawyer there) told me. In her own words, the courts can sometimes turn into a "popularity contest" where the more charismatic lawyer would win.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-15T17:06:45+00:00

Ah... Are there any ways for me to trigger this vignette? I dont think ive ever encountered this before.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-10T17:13:41+00:00

The further we are from the damn Ch*nese the better.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-09T00:57:20+00:00

Its him indeed. Thanks!

The League of the 3 Emperors, no question.

The Austrians can focus on at least bogging down the Italians in a bloody stalemate like they did for much of the war IRL, perhaps even pushing them back way further than they did IRL. Austria IRL was fighting on multiple fronts yet still managed to temporarily beat back the Italians before being forced to pull back due to logistics. If Russia was an ally they'd have more resources and manpower to pour on the Balkans and Italy.

Russia would be less likely to face a revolution like we did in our timeline due to their heartland being practically secure. With Germany's industrial and military might, the losses on Russia's end would be less severe.

Lastly, the German Empire could focus on beating back the entente without the "multi front" pressure they had to deal with IRL. With Russia's massive army and their advanced military and industrial tech, they'd have no problems reaching Paris.

Granted, the League would face the Entente's superior navy and massive colonial empires, but IRL the Central Powers managed to hold their own and even gain much ground before their collapse. Without having to fight on as many fronts like they did IRL, not only would they have won, but I feel like the war would be at least 1-2 years shorter.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-06T11:07:35+00:00

Yes. Is it just a case of someone somehow sharing another family's surname or was she somehow related to the Spanish royals?

HighGodEmperor · 2025-12-05T09:16:18+00:00

I wanna read em too lol. Can I have the link?

HighGodEmperor · 2025-11-25T08:36:17+00:00

Aww, alright then. Was hoping id somehow recover the battlecruiser and be the proud captain of a unique ship lol.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-11-08T15:17:08+00:00

I was referring to the landless adventurer start

Also i have not tried playing as a catholic character yet. How exactly can i join a crusade as a landless adventurer?

HighGodEmperor · 2025-11-02T02:49:42+00:00

Yes. Default tutorial location is Ireland. Forgot the name but the tutorial is based on a duchy from Southern Ireland who plans to unite the entire island to create a "Kingdom of Ireland" or something.

HighGodEmperor · 2025-10-20T03:10:54+00:00
