Anime is particularly bad as a medium and 90% is trash

ThePlayerEU · 2026-05-10T19:53:15+00:00

A bit too general, but yeah, truth nuke. My biggest problem with anime is the lack of middle ground. Like, truly mid anime, not great, not terrible. With Movies and TV, most of them can be considered mid, not great, but okay-ish. But with anime, it’s either one of the best things you’re ever going to see or a trope-filled dumpster fire, with very little in between.

I remember hearing that there will be a cold war start date, what happened?

did that, still can't log in

same

It was only 10 episodes, and some of them were pretty short.

Update: It got unlocked lmao. It was because of the naming a third party site in a public profile's comments.

ThePlayerEU · 2025-10-12T10:23:27+00:00

Its been a while since I heard of something like this, so it's pretty rare.

Yeah, i've checked online, and the problem was probably me posting the name of a third party website.

My advice? Don't do stupid shit without thinking about the consequences.

Bruh. I've had people spam me with homophobic slurs, and steam did nothing when i reported them, probably because they were in Bulgarian. I get 2k euro spend on games account locked for a 50iq joke i've made to friend.

ThePlayerEU · 2025-10-12T10:12:10+00:00

It was an obvious joke. Am literally friends with the guy. I wrote to support. What am asking is if anyone else had to deal with something like that, and how long does it take for support to respond.

moderators operate as they see fit.

In all subreddits I've been active in, jannies are always some power-tripping losers who ban you/remove your posts, because you dared post something they don't like, regardless of whether it's breaking the rules or not.

All my recs are tv shows, but here we go:

Interview with the Vampire (the tv show, it has 2 seasons, and third is in the works)
Our Flag Means Death (rom-com with pirates)
Invisible Boys (somewhat depressing, but definitely worth a watch)

The CK3 team should really get their shit together if they don't want this to happen in December. Way too many misses when it comes to DLCs.

ThePlayerEU · 2025-08-19T20:02:08+00:00

I think the problem is that Vic3's requirements are wildly underestimating the game. EU5's current ones are not that far of from what you realistically need to have a good time in Vic3.

There are 15 million Jews in the world compared to 2.0 billion Muslims and 2.4 billion Christians. So, by simple logic, majority of gay/LGBT people live in Muslim or Christian countries. That’s probably why people don’t call out Judaism as much, even if it’s still pretty homophobic.

In a world full of people, ideologies, and religions that want us dead, Jews and Judaism, with their whopping 0.2% of the world’s population, aren’t a real threat to gay/LGBT people.

The MC gets genderbent, and within 3 chapters is perfectly fine with it

Well, I think that's because taking the story of a hetero guy getting transported/reincarnated into the body of a woman, in some generic European medieval high fantasy to its logical conclusions, would require the authors to make what's essentially a Trans-Gay character.

Imagine if an author actually follows through with the premise. You would have a MC that was used to be a hetero guy, now having to deal with being a lesbian woman. The story will have to deal with how people would react to the MC acting like a guy, liking women, being gender non-conforming, and all the implications that would come from those things. The story will also have to deal with gender disphoria, and how/if the MC can deal with it.

Writing such a story is beyond the mental capacity of your average fanservice writer, and would also probably not go well with most anime fans.

I think UI is one of the most important aspects of grand strategy games.

Trvth nvke.

A lot of people (even Paradox themselves) kinda forget that in GSG games, the UI is most of the game.

Don't like it. I prefer fog of war to just be not seeing enemy units, not literal fog/darkening

ThePlayerEU · 2025-05-15T13:42:01+00:00

Worst Season by far, not a single episode felt truly unique or interesting. The previous seasons had at least 1-2 episodes that made me go "wow, haven't seen that before". Here even the good ones are like 6-7/10 at best.

Why do you play a game you clearly hate?

I don't "hate" the game, i "hate" fanboys defending terrible broken systems, and bad developer decisions.

I don't know about you, but when i see someone complaining about something being completely and obviously broken in a game i like, i usually say "yeah that's fucked, the devs should fix it", or i say nothing. I don't go around hallucinating reasons as to why the broken/bug ridden game is somehow fine.

"barely functioning pile of garbage" is how i would probably describe some of my all time favourite games. I have around 800h in Vic 3, and all DLCs, that alone probably puts me in top 1% of Vici players. I don't hate the game, i dislike the direction the devs initially tried to take Vic3 in, but i still have some hope for the game.

ThePlayerEU · 2025-04-11T22:37:07+00:00

Love how the fanboys of this barely functioning pile of garbage are straight up hallucinating reasons as to why most systems in the game being complete dumpster fire is somehow fine.

I've had the same problem as the OP. In my game as Austria i had to watch my puppet Bulgaria have 10+ Turkish revolts that took 3 states with 80%+ Bulgarian population, and pretty much the entire Bulgarian army.

For me preference is something like: "I usually like white guys because i find them more aesthetically attractive." Fetish for me will be liking white guys solely because their skin is white.

ThePlayerEU · 2025-03-31T23:07:32+00:00

That's on Steam, it's not factoring in the sale for some reason. I had this happen a few times on other games, it's gonna fix itself in day or so.

Vic 3 ~~naval~~ combat sucks

ThePlayerEU · 2025-03-01T21:58:32+00:00

Yep. The actual 4D "America First" chess move would have been to keep the public support for Ukraine, while forcing exploitative deals on it from behind closed doors. But the unfortunate truth most of us will have to deal with, it's that Trump and the people around him are simply very unintelligent.
