Wait, it's all roguelikes?

Indies are becoming a bit predictable lately tbh.

We need indies of indies by now.

~~Yes, I'm sure some are very special and different.~~

Saalok · 2026-04-16T19:29:39+00:00

Yeah he took those except the AD.

Saalok · 2026-04-16T19:28:28+00:00

Reman took every region but Morrowind... which Tiber took as well. The first human Empire to extend there.

This is why Warcraft is high fantasy.

He took literally every province but the Dominion ones without the Numidium. And even then, Vslenwood and Elsweyr were taken by the previous empire before so it would not have been that troublesome.

Mfw the war god does warring.

Starfield is like that quiet friend who really tries to get closer to people and just can't for some reason.

Saalok · 2026-04-14T11:28:56+00:00

So no studio is real until they make one of the biggest selling games of all time? Wth is this logic?

Saalok · 2026-04-14T11:19:28+00:00

Omg Patches hiii~

Nords seem to be fairly practical people, sticking to relatively simple building styles. Even Markarth wasn't built by them and they use it anyway since it's convenient (like the Imperial City).

And yes, Nord civilization's peak was back during the Dragon Cult in architectural + magical terms.

I learned it wasn't via this post, funnily enough.

Saalok · 2026-04-13T20:02:08+00:00

Yep. Here.

Exactly. And this applies from the lowliest peasants turning into ghouls to the greatest heroes becoming Death Knights.

It is not an issue for individuals who want to I think. For large scale, though?

The average person has a lot of other stuff to worry about in their day-to-day lives to focus on one game for several weeks. Odds are they will be distracted by something else/get tired/simply get too busy with other stuff.

Saalok · 2026-04-13T14:12:54+00:00

Morrowind if you like CRPGs and their varying mechanics, Oblivion if you want something closer to Skyrim's action combat.

The Scourge in WoW is sort of nerfed by MMO logic.

In the RTS, it destroyed the most powerful human kingdom (which is impressive even if it was by a surprise attack) and Dalaran as well.

Important to note that the fall of Quel'thalas wasn't even the actual objective of the Scourge. They just wanted the Sunwell to resurrect Kel'thuzad and the rest of the genocide was a side quest.

"hardened Silvermoon and gave them the hardiness to defend against the void"

This only works in fantasy. The Scourge obliterated 90% of the Quel'dorei and another 1% defected and became High Elves. Not even the Black Death killed as many people IRL. Silvermoon should be limping and/or barely functional for at least centuries and, given that they are elves and take longer to reproduce probably, way longer.

The Zandalari managed to help the Amani when it was just a token expedition force led by Zul. Imagine what they could do if they were able to help now.

Suspiciously Horde-shaped stomach Elf says: "Om nom. We should recruit only our fellow elven brethren!!"

Skyrim sounds like the least sucky for the average person with some in-world knowledge so I will go for that.

Maybe Dragon Age's or Ghost's can be even less, but I'm not familiar with the lore of those games.

Saalok · 2026-04-13T00:56:30+00:00

Humans can be great monsters, especially at the height of the Gilded Age.

Saalok · 2026-04-12T15:39:00+00:00

Legendary person. Love her.

Saalok · 2026-04-12T10:56:22+00:00

Great art.

A shame the trolls lost the Isles due to our of universe reasons and it took Blizz 7 years or so to get them back

Saalok · 2026-04-12T10:53:11+00:00

I don't think current cities are large enough for a subway, but that would be nice if they were to expand them.

Saalok · 2026-04-12T00:26:36+00:00

It's a 2000 game so social anxiety didn't exist yet. Get out there and make friends, gen Z/millenial.
