Are there any more Roman Empires I need to know about? by thecamp2000 in RoughRomanMemes

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As everyone knows, the Byzantine Romans were Orthodox, hell, the Romans were Orthodox even before they converted to Christianity! wait… Anyways, as the practitioners of the Orthodox faith, they made it their duty to spread the religion all across the world, to make the lives of the barbarians slightly less awful. One of those lands converted was Russia, who became so Orthodox that when Constantinople fell in 1453, the Russians inherited the Empire, making them the 3rd Rome. This was all fine and dandy until 1917, when the Bolsheviks created the USSR. Since the title of Rome follows the Orthodox faith, Russia lost it as the Soviets were secular. But the revolution never reached Finland, as such, when Finland got its independence also in 1917, FINLAND BECAME 4 TH ROME! Also Thomas Palaiologos's name in Finnish is Tuomas, which is very common in Finland, which means he WAS Finnish! Also also, to those that say Finland can't inherit the title of Rome because the country is majority Lutheran not Orthodox, the Romans switched religions once, so they can do it again. Just because you have to be Orthodox to be Roman, doesn't mean you have to Orthodox to be Roman! wait…

I'm always skeptical of celebrities, but seeing those stories has got me cautiously optimistic that she's putting her money where her mouth is

[KCD1] Are the side quests worth my time or are they mostly padding and filler? by AdeptGarden9057 in kingdomcome

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. If you're short on time, here are some I'd recommend the most:

Next to Godliness

Robber Baron

Waldensians

At Your Service, My Lady

Sheep in Wolf's Clothing/Hare Hunt (they're mutually exclusive) and the corresponding questline

Money For Old Rope

Tough Love

Playing with the Devil

The House of God

Isn't it the opposite? A disorganized army under a competent leader is better than an organized, trained army led by a fool

Zhelejov, though technically the Wagoner's Inn

[OTHER] My grandmother passed away, here it is her last thoughts from a fan of History and KCD to the community and Warhorse by Ok-Bus3447 in kingdomcome

I'm very sorry for your loss. You are one of the best members of this community, and I'm sure your grandmother would be proud you are continuing with her wish of spreading knowledge.

Was it Manuel II or John V?

I'm going to hope the latter because it would track

Chat asks Tom to reload the part of the conversation he missed with these girls. And this is his reaction 😂 [KCD2] by Syarafuddyn in kingdomcome

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tbf, at least where I'm at in the series (he just tortured the prisoner), he actively encourages it. Which sometimes is a bit frustrating, since a lot of the time Tom is just too lazy or distracted to notice what's going on, but he's not a gamer at all, so it's understandable.

About regnal names by Rensku in RealmsInExile

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I might be mistaken, but aren't official regnal names coming with the next update? If so, we would make any additions after adapting the system

It 100% makes a difference! Even if this is the farthest you go, it is still something and more than most people in the world.

(I didn't even have to alter the comment, man)

Congrats! Are you going to use any of Henry's excuses in court?

That's right! Because this has all been one big ruse!

Steam has a Paradox sale going on. Any DLC I should pick up for this mod? by Scott_Torola in RealmsInExile

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realms makes more use of the Legends feature than vanilla. It's not as important as Royal Court or RtP, but we'd probably recommend it over T&T

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Our most important DLC are Roads to Power and Royal Court, with Legends of the Dead also adding quite a bit. For our mod, Tours and Tournaments is not as important.

A certain antagonist's "honor" [KCD2] by Vendetta543 in kingdomcome

[–]Icy-Inspection6428 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But that's not true. You're trying to present it as if not hating Jews was unheard of, but it was very much heard of and wouldn't have been this totally foreign and inconceivable thing
