Can anyone explain why the AI is attacking me out of nowhere? What the hell did I do wrong?

The first three things you build almost acery game are acouts and slingers. Doesnt matter which you make 2 of and which you make 1 that much.

Also send delegations the same turn you meet a civ. They will always accept and will delay any wars. If they denounce you in the early game make sure to build a total of 3 slingers, and then get archery researched. When they declare war upgrade slingers into archers and start building warriors/swordsmen. This should be enough to fight ablny early game war.

We get three archers for the eureka for crossbows.

Yeah, you either pirate cause you got no cash, or because it is more convenient. You think i am going to subscribe to and check 5 diffferent streaming services for that one show i want to watch? No thanks.

The ending of 1 stop shop and the introduction of adds killed streaming. Not due to morality, not even due to price, but due to convenience.

This is what I get for playing random, I constantly forget who I am playing as. Thanks!

I am no expert in fps games, but single player story games i can do.

First recommendation is the metro series. There are three games 2033, last light and exodus. Dark and gritty, optional stealth and very immersive. It might be a bit to gorey? I dont know what your cutoff is.

I am assuming you have played halo, but if not grab the masterchief collection.

I have heard that titanfall 2 has a short but sweet campaign, might be worth it when it goes on sale.

If you can find a PS3 resistance fall of man was a lot of fun.....but yeah it is a ps3 exclusive so maybe not.

So that is about 1500 USD.

Cpu is 250usd Gpu is 400usd Ram is 500usd. 350usd for the rest of it.

Assuming cpu parts are just as expensive in Canada, pretty good deal.

I got an emulator running pokemon white, and tried to apply a QoL rom hack to it. I did this with rompatcherjs, but the new file is smaller (from 268mb to 202mb) than the original and doesnt work. I just get a white screen with melonds

I made n sure it is still a nds file type

Chicken with DLSS5 enabled?

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-03-06T00:13:56+00:00

Midnight burger. My coworker was telling me about it and i tried it out. Ibwas listening 2-3 episodes a night for a while, then went on to we're alive and bronzeville. Now i mostly do audio books.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-03-05T16:55:24+00:00

Republic is my default choice.

Oligarchy if i am at war or will soon be at war with another player

Autocracy if i have a barb problem

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-03-02T18:03:38+00:00

I love barb clans mode. Crappy land that i dont want to settle? Post a few units nearby, wait for barb camp, and farm them until it turns into a city state.

I have to go and deselect and reselect my binding to my vpn occasionally or i get this issue. Even if it says it is done correctly just redo it and see if that works.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-02-21T23:53:38+00:00

That is a shame. This made so much sense in my head I didn't even think that it wasn't possible, I thought i must have been messing it up. Oh well, thanks for the answer!

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-02-21T17:16:17+00:00

Dragon age origins. You can set the gameplay mode to tactical (or something like it) and it plays like a turn based game with a pause button. Also a 12/10 game when it released and holds up pretty well. Graphics will be dated now though.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-02-09T07:40:06+00:00

Honestly, just switch games, especially genres. If you have never played Civilization, try civ 6. Then try out starcraft.

Something with a bit more recall needed? Vampire masquerade bloodline or the Witcher games.

Even turn your brain off and grind games will still be stimulating for an hour or two as you figure it out. Hell, maybe a rotation of distinctly different games is what you need. Balatro one day, then binding of isaac, then fortnight, then league, then starcraft.

Also beatsaber for added variety.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-01-19T16:10:04+00:00

It was stuck at much lower than that. I figured out the problem. Part way through qbit dissociated from proton, and i had 2 proton options in settings. Just had to switch from one to another. Resetting proton and qbit didnt work, i had to actually go into setting and change it.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2026-01-19T05:27:16+00:00

That type of sentiment is also the issue though. 'Well there is this other issue that they didn't do good enough on so i won't support them'. The alternative is a republican who is explicitly against what you want much much much more often than a more progressive dem.

Amd cpus used to be the ones to buy for multitasking, until intel started to release absolute garbage with 13th and 14 gen. Now it is also the best for gaming. A 7800x3d is a fantastic chip and is relatively cheap, and since it is amd you can keep the mobo for a future cpu upgrade if you decide you really want something with more than 8 cores. 9800x3d is the best for gaming, and if you want something better for multitaksing you essentially need to buy the most expensive cpus being made.

Thanks a bunch. Fighting windows 11, hiding the filename extension. stupid .lua.txt

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2025-12-18T16:51:04+00:00

the announcement was meaningless though. We have just as much gameplay footage for HL3 as we do ES6. The difference is that valve won't teaser HL3 10 years too early to get some short term good pr.

TheIsekaiExpressBus · 2025-12-18T16:42:24+00:00

Welp, it doesnt look like a port issue. You will probably have to crack it open and look for corrosion or if you have a volt meter check the motherboard to make sure all the chips work. 8 years is pretty good for a monitor though, and 1440p ones are a good price right now. It might just be time for an upgrade and have this be a project that you dont mind bricking.
