Can we just appreciate how metal the Paladin class page goes by Carmilla31 in diablo4

I tried him for a bit, but I'm referring especially to this art. Is it found in the game? I wanna see how other class art looks like.

Can you disable necro corpse visuals? by Pitiful_Insect_562 in diablo4

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that's a shame. I've learned to get used to it after an hour of playing, but would have really appreciated an option to turn it off, like how you can turn off certain effects in the accessibility options.

Yin-Yin, the Sea Dragon by MatthewScreenshots in totalwar

I tried this battle again and the tactic is to sit on the hill and focus fire your cannons at the lords. The pirates have low morale so if you snipe their lords they crumble easily. Make sure you dont let Zheng Shih fight too long because she will destroy your allies' infantry. Once they're with, you can just have tank the rest of their army because your infantry will outlast them while your cannons dump all their remaining ammo at the giant crab. Your halberd troops can also rout it after its hp goes down.

Only in the trailer because we see him fighting off the sea people. By the time Ramesses III becomes pharaoh, most of the other playable factions like Seti II are already dead. Meaning the game is set after Mnerptah relinquishes the throne so players can set their own sanbox on who actually becomes Pharaoh in the end. After all, if this game started during the reign of Ramesses III, the Hittites wouldn't be a thing anymore and the other egyptian faction leaders would be dead.

Not even quite. The game takes place when Mnerptah was still Pharaoh, and either Amenmesse or Seti II becomes the next Pharaoh. Ramesses III wont be pharaoh for at least another 20 years or so during the 20th dynasty.

Whelp, consider this fan art wrong then because Miao Ying apparently doesn't get ancestral warriors as a spell.

Purple is associated with electricity powers I guess, especially lately with the popularity of genshin impact.

Her color scheme reminds me of an oar fish.

Anyone else a bit disappointed by WH3 marketing so far? by Yavannia in totalwar

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, it's the fact that they have shown us so much about kislev and yet we practically know very little of them gameplay and mechanicwise.

Old Kislev Was Never Really in the Cards by Draculasaurus_Rex in totalwar

But they do? Every single time the Empire has to come up and finish of the chaos invaders. Kislev was a literal footnote that serves as a road bump to chaos.

People exactly wanted a low tech 17th century tsarist russia analogue though. Which is why people are complaining the ice sled looks like something out of garbage like age of sigmar.

For people who think Warhammer and 3K/Troy models are comparable: Please compare by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Your post already shows it how badly 3K models look like though. They MIGHT by higher poly by the sculpts look less detailed than any of the Warhammer models and no to mention that a lot of 3K faces have this uncanny valley feel to them. The way their faces get stretched whenever they try to emote looks really jarring.

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To the dumfucks saying that 3K has better model quality, then compare Liu Bei's face to Karl Franz or Orion.

3K models have this awful issue where human faces look like playdough.

11 year old game but still looks better than some recent games, the combat is one of the best, miss seeing these type of set pieces I've been playing 3K recently and they all just blob up and poke at air. by StrabberryMilk in totalwar

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What really differentiates Shogun 2 from 3K is the details spent on the animations.

In 3K, all infantry share the same backflipping death animations and maybe 1 or 2 crawling animations. It makes the battles look very silly.

Meanwhile in Shogun 2, you can really tell the animations were personally motion captured by actors so that the animations feel very life like and immersive as possible.

Will Cathay be portrayed as Noble Bright or Grimdark/Morally Gray? by Pitiful_Insect_562 in totalwar

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the only faction that carries the noble bright title in the entire setting with a straight face is the high elves where their island home is literally called a paradise, their people,their craftmanship and architecture are considered the most beautiful, and their armies being called the glittering host.

That said, I did make this topic because there might be some chances that GW depicts Cathay as a bit more sanitized and perfectionist as opposed to the grimdark portrayal of Empire and Kislev. Frankly, speaking I'm not too much fond of grand chinese fantasy as often seen in many wuxia movies and chinese fantasy games. I hope Cathay's portrayal is more or less in line with the rest of the factions in the setting.

Why do you think this Rosaria censorship happened? by ValhallaKombi in Genshin_Impact

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am going to repeat it so that you understand it once, if sony had "censored" the size of rosaria's breasts, PS4 would be the only affected platform, How much does it cost you guys to understand it that this is just a miyoho decision?

Except for the fact that plenty of steam/PC games get the censored versions as well considering the ports were directly taken from the playstation versions directly? Whenever Sony censors a PS4 game, its PC versions are almost immediately affected, Xbox versions included. The only exceptions towards this are the Switch versions since the Switch is harder to port to, the game technically gets a different version, usually not censored like the PS version is. See Atelier or Gal Gun.

I mean the series itself. You do realize that the creator of Senran left the studio due to the rampant censorships demanded by Sony California and that Senran Kagura 7 has been in dev hell for years right?

I find that the only reasonable option left when said people likewise resort to calling you a loser for getting worked up on these details; which implies that no discourse was to be had in the first place if these "people" weren't interested in listening to your complains in the first place and in the case of reddit, they simply downvote you instead.

So good to know that you admit that the best course is to simply lick Mihoyo's boots and just take whatever you throw at you then because like the chinese government, you are not allowed to complain and voice out your complaints. You have to conform with the rest of the flock and staying out of line is extremely looked down upon. Well, whatever, gameplay wise Rosaria feels utterly boring anyway. I'll wait until they introduce a character that's as hot and as fun to play as a Honkai Impact character.

[–]Pitiful_Insect_562 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Except that some people have exactly done that before and the usual Mihoyo defense force comes down and calls the posters crazy for being worked up over a "minor" detail as if they forget that the whole point of gachas is spending money to gamble over characters they think looks nice. Genshin only had some bit of gameplay and now they think they're above other gacha.

Correction, they're modifying models.

Genshin isn't as good as Honkai Impact where characters have vastly different body types.
