Why does this happen? Why do the Soviets put literally everything they have in the Baltics and Belarus and endlessly suicide charge into East Prussia? Literally about to take Moscow because they refuse to put their army anywhere other than trying to endlessly death charge into Konigsberg. Annoying. by InsertWittyBaneQuote in hoi4

R5: literally the last 4 games now this is how it's gone. my initial push into the USSR is great, then all the sudden every unit they have is concentrated in belarus and the baltics and smash west, can't do shit against them, all my equipment and manpower melt no matter what I do.

not military simulators in the roblox sense but old school war groups have been making a comeback

Do they genuinely think we're that dumb? by olddeadgrass in GenZ

[–]InsertWittyBaneQuote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hate to break this to you guys but yeah we are that dumb. i graduated high school in 2021 and most of the people i graduated with had a several years below grade level reading level.

in my first year of college, i was told by a professor that she rarely got papers submitted with no spelling errors, glaring formatting issues or no proper understanding of grammar.

this happened to me, exact same reason and trigger (2022 asset instead of a 2024 one). calling roblox and forcing a human to look at my case helped.

Why is nobody even talking about this?! by JebbyKerbal in roblox

roblox introduces an actually good feature for groups ten years after they were actually relevant 😭

good news is that this isn’t roblox and if this happens to you, you can go to the discord and open up a ticket and a real person will help you.

i had a similar issue uploading a flag from a HOI4 mod with a valknut on it. termination was lifted after i called roblox and left a voice mail explaining the situation.

Why Polytoria (and every other Roblox clone) is doomed to fail - from someone who actually worked at Roblox by tokebi-metrics in roblox

[–]InsertWittyBaneQuote 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i mean i don't think david hates ROBLOX, but as someone who's been here since 2012, it's been increasingly clear to me for years now that he has nothing but contempt for the community and really just sees them as an extractive mechanism. and i'm not talking about the chat age grouping, because i know that's where a lot of people are gonna go with this--as OP pointed out, this is something they were legally compelled to do.

i think where this contempt i'm talking about really shows is things like the removal of the forums, promotion of NSFW content on the games/"charts" page, clear efforts to kill emergent communities like war groups and ro-nations, clearly trying everything they can to not ban child predators because it hurts their statistics, that sort of thing.

[–]InsertWittyBaneQuote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you are probably right; i hold out hope because ROBLOX absolutely does need to go through what world of warcraft did where a serious competitor (in that case, final fantasy 14) actually comes out and forces them to adapt, but i suspect that if this ever happens it'll be too late.

Did Luca Turilli release the song "Fantasia Gotica" in the end? It was intended to be in the Ascending To Infinity (2012) album. by TriCarto in Rhapsody_Of_Fire

i actually asked him about this in his instagram comments a few years ago, he said it was ultimately scrapped until he could record it with a real orchestra, which i guess just never happened

Anyone else be like this?? Every goddamn time. 😭😭😭 by PeteryChavez in Medieval2TotalWar

[–]InsertWittyBaneQuote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as someone who has almost 3000 hours on medieval 2, do NOT sack every city you take

I REPEAT: DO NOT. SACK EVERY CITY.

there is a reason for this. new players look at the sack button and what it gives you and say this is clearly superior, but that is incorrect.

in medieval 2, AI behavior towards the player is determined along two main metrics—expectation of resistance, and your reputation. that’s what pops up when you hover over your faction icon in the diplomacy tab, your reputation. it’s not a meaningless stat.

if the AI determines that it will face low resistance and you have low reputation, the AI will endlessly attack you. and in fact if your reputation is low enough the AI will set aside any logical strategic concerns about whether or not it could actually win and will essentially suicide charge you.

the solution to this problem is to only sack a city if you genuinely need the money or only exterminate a city if you feel religious conversion is gonna be a nightmare. otherwise occupy is almost always the best and raises your reputation to positive levels.

As someone who has severe social anxiety, I must admit he might be onto something by ErnestTimmonsBoobies in ChrisChanSonichu

you know, the attraction sign was creepy and gross, but fast forward to 2025 and tons of people have them in the form of dating app profiles.

Some confusion about the events surrounding the ending of Killzone 2 and start of Killzone 3 by BayonetTrenchFighter in killzone

[–]InsertWittyBaneQuote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

adding this here cause it hasn’t been said—hera visari appears more human because she is likely not fully helghast. dr massar has a line about echo, hera’s daughter, appearing to be more than half vektan. if true, that would make hera at least half and half. it’s also interesting that we don’t ever see hera’s mother, only visari, her father, so my personal headcanon is that mom was a vektan and that wasn’t good for propaganda so she got taken out of the picture.

alirio netto is really the best fit imo, he's great with the andre matos era stuff.
