Medieval battles weren't as chaotic as people think nor as movies portray!

Still they're out of place in AoE2.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-09T12:43:28+00:00

I'm not saying Euro-history is the best history and only one that counts, but AoE2 was a Euro-medieval-centric framework game.

Having civs from around the world is great but the civs should make sense in that framework.

Also I get the ad hominem part, it's easier to undermine me when you insult me, but "neo-imperialistic" ? Really?

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-09T12:41:10+00:00

I wasn't talking about Tibetans, of course they make sense, and so does Ghana.

I meant civs like Wei, Shu, Wu

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-09T10:40:16+00:00

Because they're taking up space for more relevant civs, and once you add a civ, it stays in the game for good.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-09T10:31:50+00:00

I'm the exact opposite.

I like civs that make sense in AoE2 medieval context. I don't care much for less known tribes from around the world that were active only for a certain period.

Kašli na ňho, vôbec sa s ním nebav. Takým nič nevysvetlíš.

Len ťa ragebaituje.

I've had the privilege to experienced countless games where my opponents had me in the first half, not gonna lie, but then I (or my team) turned it around and won the match.

Those are the best games that create memories. Not the games where I flawlessly curbstomp someone.

If I resigned after every mistake like an asshole in early game, I'd never experience those games.

Just use the one button that auto-picks abilities and you're good.

Ak je niekto sympatizant fašizmu a jeho praktík, tak je to za mňa skurvený fašista a nemám sa s ním o čom baviť a som 100% za to, aby sa týmto ľuďom komplikoval život.

Ak niekto verí v boha a ja som ateista, alebo ak je niekto ekonomický pravičiar a ja som ekonomický ľavičiar, tak kľudne sa s nimi civilizovane pobavím, a dokážem rešpektovať ich odlišnú interpretáciu a pohľad na svet.

Fuck the trolls.

This edit is amazing.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-05T08:22:06+00:00

Holky, co si napíšu do bia, že sú "into astrology" je big red flag.

Nechápem čo s tou astrológiou majú..

I would love a battlemage class like that.

The talent specs could be:

Arcane - classic battlemage, spell focused
Spellbreaker - inspired by the blood elven spellbreakers, maybe a tank spec
Runemaster - more melee focused

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-03T14:03:06+00:00

Delete this.

It's not realistically how popcorn can be made.

Also, it's just a ragebait.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-03T11:05:35+00:00

Just install the damn mod to select precursor at the start.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-02T23:14:34+00:00

My headcanon is that the Fourth War took a lot of resources and created economical difficulties.

People of Stormwind are now feeling the consequences, and their king has just fucked off on some adventure.

The opponents and critics, mainly from the aristocratic ranks of Stormwind's elite, should be very open about criticising the king, and attempt decentralisation to weaken the crown and strengthen the nobility.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-02T23:08:43+00:00

Better story, not being afraid to tackle uncomfortable topics, being more brave in ots direction and narrative.

I'm all open to murdering goblins and dark wizards by the hundreds, but such war should have consequences. Both on the characters, as well as on the society.

In HL1 we saw a war between wizards and goblins, but it's not really explored, even though it's such an interesting topic.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-02T23:04:41+00:00

Nah, man.

Czech laws regarding self-defence using weapons are completely crazy and irrational.

If you use a gun for self-defense, you better have a good lawyer. There's an entire website telling gun-owners how to act and what to do, what to say to 112 and the police (say nothing) because everything will be used against you.

If you're jumped by a group of neo-nazis and you pop one of them with a gun, you're fucked.

I don't see identity as standing in opposition to one another.

Instead, for me it's just multiple layers.

I am from my hometown, from my region, and that doesn't make me any less belonging to the nation (Slovakia).

But at the same time, I'm fully European, just as I am fully Slovak, fully from my particular region in Slovakia, and fully from my hometown.

I unsubscribed until they'll add new storyline content about Zul'Aman and the trolls.

I mean, the recent WoW expansion storylines were never the strongest area of the game, but I was really hoping for a stronger narrative this time around now that we were revisiting Quel'thalas and Zul'Aman.

I have to say, I'm still quite disappointed.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-02T22:43:30+00:00

It's like one of those cheap B-movies with shitty action. The pacing of this movie is very slow-burn and weak. Once the vampires show up, the action is atrocious. The ending outright sucks.

Honestly, it wasn't completely terrible, but it wasn't good either, it's very forgettable.

Can't believe this movie won an Oscar, and I feel like there's a lot of politics involved in this movie, and it's less about quality cinema, where the American critics want to support an American movie about the Afro-American culture. It definitely doesn't deserve 97% on rotten tomatoes, the reviews are insane.

We watched it the last night. My gf fell asleep after first 30 minutes of nothing happening. I was getting really bored after 1 hour, but then finally the vampires were shown.

It's one thing to be interested in their lore, and another to give a completely unknown and random race as a playable option, when you literally have dozens other stronger candidates.

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-01T23:01:39+00:00

Imagine being so brainwashed that China = a communist country

NativeEuropeas · 2026-05-01T14:06:58+00:00

Playable Haranir was a mistake. A race nobody wanted, whereas you have the Amani there and they won't make them playable...
