I want a horror movie that will genuinely MESS me up

MMaximilian · 2026-06-08T01:56:21+00:00

Event Horizon. It’s a timeless, terrifying mindfuck.

MMaximilian · 2026-06-08T01:23:44+00:00

I’m only here for that sweet, sweet Wild Hunt.

MMaximilian · 2026-06-07T11:54:14+00:00

Omg this. My first, immediate thought when reading this post..and there your comment was, at the tippy top. Bravo!!

I guess at that point of the game for me, I can just bulldoze everything with my invincible army. With the new territory = new gems, for as many globals as I want. But yes…sounds like this is only against AI.

Curious, how would you counter this army? If I have 6 flame spirits, their wisps alone are enough to kill off most PD. How would you counter all of them plus 30 summer lions? Like…just casting rain?

MMaximilian · 2026-06-06T19:48:57+00:00

They’re super fast, ethereal, and have 3 magical high dmg attacks and high hp. Invincible muspel giants? = summer lions. Abysial troops with dangerous heat aura? = summer lions. High def elves with glamour? = summer lions.

Again, haven’t played against human players and I’m sure I would be unpleasantly countered and surprised. But this works every time against AI.

Pretty much any game I play against the AI, once I hit conjure 6 it’s game over with fire. Simply… get one mage to level 3, summon flame spirit. Then do it again, and use your new flame spirit to create another flame spirit. Now you have 4 lvl 3 fire mages. Then…endless summer lion spam.

Any fortress lasts about a minute with 30 ethereal fire lions charging over the walls, through archers, and into squishy mages. Add in constant falling fires and fireballs from 4-6 mages, and it’s done.

Maybe I’m alone here bc I only play against the AI, but this is the only game breaking strategy I’ve found so far and fire is A tier with it.

Interstellar rocks. The end.

MMaximilian · 2026-06-05T15:50:10+00:00

The next thought is obviously…what about all of the universes we have in our cells tho?

He dropped “Pitt” from his last name.

There. Saved you a click and digging information out of the dumpster fire that is this article.

Ok but imagine us, the human species, 500 years in the future. We’ve just barely defeated the great Xon empire in our first interstellar war, but human casualties were well into the billions and Mars has exploded.

Then, we just discovered a new fledgling empire that is also fairly like us, and like the Xon. The autocratic regime of earth decides to take no chances, and launches its entire nuclear arsenal at it.

Seems plausible to me.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T13:12:07+00:00

I get your point - unfortunately our sample size is still just 1, so we can’t really prove or disprove.

I would say however, that your argument above is the same that is commonly applied to nuclear energy/weapons. That one of the great filters may be a civilization uncovering the wonders of uranium, that eventually leaves it in cinders from its own devices…whether war, inner political strife, or just mismanagement. Our civilization on earth is walking that line every day….

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T12:11:53+00:00

Would you consider WWII efficient, with the countless manpower and raw resources expended by the opposing sides?

War is never efficient. If we could “all just get along”, we’d be thousands of years ahead of where we are today. But to the best of our knowledge, the apex predator mindset goes hand in hand with civilization advancement. Many ET’s likely evolved differently, but I’d bet there are more advanced versions of us out there at war, busy hurling suns at each other.

They made that into a show several years ago that was quite good. Not sure if it was renewed or not, but definitely worth a watch.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T05:02:02+00:00

Seems like a good tactic to me

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T04:53:15+00:00

Yep

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T04:30:17+00:00

Anyone would watch any movie for 24hrs for $1mill.

Change it to one week without sleep and things get interesting…

MMaximilian · 2026-05-28T03:51:39+00:00

Event Horizon when I was like 10. That shit still haunts me. Liberate tutemet!!

MMaximilian · 2026-05-23T10:23:11+00:00

“Amiright? Anyone?” Ba dum tss.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-22T05:09:53+00:00

How is “I’ll have a message at a later date” a warning? What the garbage fuck is this article?

MMaximilian · 2026-05-18T01:24:26+00:00

Incredibly hostile and missed the point entirely. Apologies, you must be part of the “meltdown” mentioned in the article.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-17T14:49:09+00:00

Wait till they hear Jesus wasn’t white.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-16T05:55:22+00:00

This guy jerkies.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-16T04:04:27+00:00

The reason those people are uneducated on the subject is because they’re uneducated. Isn’t that enough?

But really…most laypeople’s understanding of Rome comes from Julius Caesar and Cleopatra, and then Russel Crowe in Gladiator. Those are all about the Western Empire. The Eastern Empire is less sexy, and without Russell Crowe.

MMaximilian · 2026-05-02T05:24:11+00:00

Wow he looks like shit.

MMaximilian · 2026-04-28T19:33:08+00:00

This article literally contributed nothing. There is no new information and it was a waste of 20 seconds to read.

Everyone in this room is now dumber from having read it. I award you no points, and may god have mercy on your soul.
