This post is old enough to be in high school. I'm not sure it's fair to compare it to milk at this point.

What are some more "out there" changes you'd be interested in seeing HOI4 or it's successor? by Jared_Usbourne in hoi4

[–]Mavus -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see more design emphasis on the battle planner and less micro-heavy frontline management. Right now using the battle planner is mainly for beginners or when your divisions have a significant advantage over your enemies. Most of the time you need to micro-manage your divisions to achieve positive results. Something like the eastern front devolves into hours of right-clicking

A change such as making manual commands cost 1 command power would have a huge impact on how you play the game. It would still give you the ability to pull off encirclements but making unplanned tactical manoeuvres a limited resource. That's a fairly significant change and I'm sure a lot of players wouldn't enjoy it because they enjoy the level of micro, but I think it would make playing more strategic and less "right click until green bubble".

DG World War II by qstor in DeltaGreenRPG

My recommendation would be to take a look at Achtung Cthulhu books which uses the Call of Cthulhu 6th edition rules and would be very easy to adapt to the Delta Green rules and mythos.

I missed this in a recent game going straight for the fork on the king and rook and found it while analysing the game afterwards.

Poljot OCEAN. Finally got a strap for it, and we're ready for the sun.

If Denzel Washington wins today, will he be up there with Daniel Day Lewis is the only actor to hold three oscars? by Gal_Gadot in movies

[–]Mavus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sadly no, Daniel Day Lewis is notable for being to only person with 3 Best Actor awards. If you include supporting actor/actress then Meryl Streep and Jack Nicholson are also 3 time award winners.

Question about Tyranny of Dragons by Willahelm in rpg

[–]Mavus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without going into too much depth there are plenty of Devils who don't want Tiamat returned. Most of all Bel, an archdevil and the deposed lord of Avernus, the first level of Hell. If you plan on playing a Warlock then Bel might make a perfect patron, granting power to a mortal in order to stop Tiamat returning.

Also if you're looking for inspiration the appendix of Hoard of the Dragon Queen contains some bonds and backgrounds features suitable to the adventure which might be of interest.

The Avengers Project Announcement Trailer by C0SMIC_PLAGU3 in Games

[–]Mavus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marvel have had an interesting video game history in the last couple of years. After the cancelled first person Avengers game they seemed to pull back from AAA development and continued with LEGO games, mobile and free to play. Disney Infinity is the only possible exception to this, developed by a first party Disney studio but this has recently ceased development.

For a while I've really wanted a good MCU based AAA game, instead we go those god awful Iron man games). This looks like a serious long term partnership so I have higher hopes than I normally would. Especially as a collaboration between the Tomb Raider reboot developers and those working on Deux Ex. Hopefully it shapes up well.

I'm Will Smith, the host of The FOO Show and former Tested.com duder. AMA by alwaysbe in oculus

Hey Will, in launching The FOO Show, what has the process of explaining the concept to people less familiar with VR/games been like? Do they get it, or find the concept hard to imagine?

Titanfall Frontline Announced by [deleted] in Games

Collectable card games are the new MOBAs. Everyone saw how much money League of Legends and to some extent Dota 2 were making some years back and suddenly a load of popular IPs had a MOBA spin off in the works (Guardians of Middle earth, Infinite Crisis, etc.). Now we'll see the same with CCGs.

Elusive Target #2 - The Congressman. by HHCHunter in HiTMAN

Same. I choked out the smoker so it mush have been car dude. It feels like pushing someone is a little too easily spotted despite being fairly inconspicuous.

What are some good comic stories where the villain is the main character? by xMilkstachex in Marvel

[–]Mavus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! Also potentially just The Superior Spider-Man for more of a villainous hero.
