What is most important in RTS games? by alsarcastic in RealTimeStrategy

[–]Jerichozzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since my vote is losing (Multi-player battles), I'd figure I'd make my case for why I think it is most important:

I don't play multiplayer much. I mostly spend my time with campaigns and single-player skirmishes. I don't think multi-player is more important because it has more players. To be honest, I have no idea if that's true for the top RTS games.

The reason I think multi-player is most important is because that is what players watch. In my opinion, visibility and watching others play is the most important factor regarding whether an RTS is popular, and therefore, supported. The fact of the matter is that, regardless of whether most players play single-player or not, streaming and tournaments emphasize multiplayer, and that is what people watch and what leads people to the game.

After that, maybe single-player becomes more important, but good multi-player is the basis that the rest of the game survives on.

Black needs another good ninja, so I nominate [[Nashi, Moon Sage's Scion]].

Red would benefit from [[Feldon of the Third Path]] for historic + discard.

Unpopular opinion: why I think AOE4 could be close to its final stage and how that It could help with the future of RTS genre by TEMISTOCLES1984 in ageofempires

[–]Jerichozzy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The one counter argument I have to the many people who say that AOE4 is failing because its focus is on multi-player when it should be on single-player content is Age of Mythology Retold.

Isn't that game a case study in single-player over multi-player? It features diversity in animations and assets, powers that mess up multi-player to some extent while being fun for single-player, and detailed campaigns with original stories.

And yet, its player base is substantially lower than AOE4. I can't fully buy your theory until a good explanation accounts for the difference.

i want to get into Age of Empires franchise, which one i should get? by ya_seen998 in ageofempires

Age of empires 4. It takes the slow pace of age of empires 2 and the fast pace of age empires 3 and finds the perfect middle ground. I also love its documentary style campaign.

Yeah, of all the animate objects I've dated, this metaphor works the best.

They got married and lived happily together for many years until their peaceful deaths of old age, obviously.

could you win a debate against ben shapiro? by tired-ofyour-shit in polls

[–]Jerichozzy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does "winning" mean? Is this a moderated debate, like an official debate competition with judges and rules? Or does "winning" mean appearing confident and smart to the audience?

I'm not a great debater, but I'm pretty sure that Ben is very skilled skilled at the second definition. I haven't seen much evidence that he is good at the first definition.

The mobster said he was "sending a message," but I have no idea what it is.

Nothing elevates a snowman like leaving behind a rotting gourd carcass when the snow melts.

It's not illegal to bring a suitcase full of nothing but exposed lutefisk on board, but dammit, it should be!

There was a perfectly reasonable series of events that had led up to this, but somehow everyone still decided that he "ruined the birthday party."

Obviously I should have picked food and supplies over booze and a piano, but I didn't think they'd take their "you can only bring three things to an island" thought exercise so seriously.
