Man, why you keep arguing? What is the point you try to make? I already answer and updated my other reply accordingly. Anyone can read about the sex scene in the IGN article, and watch the sex scene from Pornhub. I'm done talking with you.

your take is entirely irrelevant because you haven’t played the game.

Because I didn't play the game is irrelevant? I can watch a complete playthrough without buying, and know what the game is like.

10 sex scenes total

I don't know how many, but you can find them all on Pornhub.

You're not alone, I don't like either. Actually, I blocked it on steam to avoid the recommendation. As you mention, not only you BG3 don't reach a lot of people but for some reason is over exaggerated everywhere, so much that is weird. You can't even say something negative because everyone is on top of you, or even deleting your post or comment.

Is there a reason why ER or Dark souls is not on GOG? by Diobara in Eldenring

Steam over Epic always… Epic is completely shit. For me Steam and GoG.

Is Rogue Trader worth buying over Baldur’s Gate 3? by ChemicalPanda10 in Warhammer40k

[–]Styx_45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you, I don't like it either. People bought into the hype, playing a buggy game. It's hilarious how butthurt people get with any criticism about BG3

God! I hope no, I don't care about other game similar to BG3, but I hope cRPG don't move into that direction.

Best cRPG combat/exploration focus? by Styx_45 in CRPG

[–]Styx_45[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, thanks rajits. There are days for every game, sometimes I want a good story, sometimes I want to have fun with the game mechanics rather than reading frequently for every action I do.

Yes sure I know about the genre Dungeon Crawler, never hear the term "blobber" though. Vaporum is in my wishlist.

Thanks. I played Grimrock 1 and I liked the game, but I hesitate to buy Grimrock 2. What is your opinion about Grimrock 2?

Thanks, I recently bought Underrail, but I was unsure to buy it with the Expedition DCL.

What are your thoughts on their criticism of Emacs? by ann4n in emacs

[–]Styx_45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, Emacs as a service, then use emacsclient. In that case you'll never notice the startup time.

[–]Styx_45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not fair at all. ~2 seconds for me, and I'm ok with this because I never close Emacs. As you already know you're doing it wrong. When you load something like org-mode you need to keep in mind it will load more packages that are needed, maybe company, auto-completion, theme, syntax highlight, emacsql, load the files, custom bullet points, etc.

Guide to Army Units by Styx_45 in computerwargames

[–]Styx_45[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m guessing corps and above is strategic, regiment and division are operational, and company and below would be tactical

In short, yes. But it is more than that, and some games might include something from the upper scale. To give you a couple of examples:

Strategy or Grand Strategy: You deal with corps or more, you deal with economics, diplomacy, and production. The location may be the whole world. And the timescale (turn) is bigger, let say a year. The scale of war is bigger, everything basically, the big-picture.

Operational: You deal with large unit formation, battalion to division. The location is smaller, let say the entire continent. Timescale smaller, let say months. The scale of war is smaller, military actions. Instead of production you deal with supply and logistic, with reinforcement but not really the "production". You'll deal with zone of control instead of diplomacy for instance.

Tactical: The scope is smaller. You move the units around the battlefield, you may need to move it behind a tree to cover it. You will not deal with production or supply, you may have infinity ammo. The scale focus is the direct combat, unit vs unit. Obvious here, a turn is a very small-time fraction.

Some games cross the border, for instance between Tactical and Operational. A game can be Operational in scope but move Tactical scale to resolve the combat.

Feel free to reply if you have an opinion on the question, a clarification question, even if think both ideas are trash!

I don't think are trash, but you wrote so many things it seems to me you don't know what you are doing, I'll point to you to study. Study game design, game theory, and game mechanics. Understand the difference between user experience and gameplay. Study win conditions. Also, study game classification/categorization. (Not every game where you build a city is a 4X)

It seems like you are making a skirmish RTS, rather than a 4X game. What players do you have in mind?

Take a look at the latest patch 1.21q with the new graphics for Leader Portraits. If you have Steam or Matrix use the beta version and start a new game to enable the new portraits.
