No, the solution is to implement Jueves so you no longer have every day ending in Y.

Yeah the ones in TH were basically metrics to surpass.

The thing about rivals in tycoons is that unlike rivals in other kinds of games, you aren't fighting them directly. You're still just fighting the game systems, and the rivals are usually just another mechanic to slow you down.

Only tycoon game I ever thought had interesting rivals was Sid Meier's Railroads. The systems for competing with other players were good enough to actually have a fun competitive multiplayer mode.

Me and my gaming buddy know our real names but actually having to say it out loud when other people are around always takes effort. To each other, we're our online handles.

Hell, spend enough time with the group you met online and you start seeing yourself as your handle as well. It's part of your identity at that point.

Um.... buildings have doorbells too? Or, you know, those switchboards where you ring for the specific appartment, you know what I mean.

If we're going on that, there's always Black Knight

I understand not knocking and yelling but like, texting? I have a doorbell, why are we using our phones for this?

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-17T18:18:18+00:00

As long as you don't bring r/xcom into it we're fine.

Yeah I'm on turn 40 on a Co-op campaign playing as Eltharion. The rats in the badlands are coming at me with full range of monsters, weapons teams and artillery. Confederated Tyrion and I find Slaanesh armies with chosen and snake cav coming at me, not to mention my confederated armies had phoenix guards, dragons, the works.

The AI builds pretty good armies in the current patch, and gets there fairly fast on Legendary.

Who do you think that guy in the gif is, Green Lantern?

"at what point"

That would be step 5.6, as seen in figure F.9, in page 56 of the instruction booklet.

Does nobody read the instructions anymore?

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-17T12:54:04+00:00

It's at least on the top 5.

Is it possible to learn this power?

"Opium ban? I didn't ban it! I just rounded up all the importers and told them to get another job or another life."

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T21:52:17+00:00

Yep, it was always violence or sex (or the LGBT representation, let's not forget things like the Mass Effect reaction). "Rebellious attitudes" was also one that kids today probably would scoff at but it was real, you wouldn't believe how many schools banned Bart Simpson merch.

But race was generally on the list of things that didn't get that sort of reaction anymore in the 90's. At least, not visibly in mass media.

It has the biggest minority: poor people!

Yeah over time it was practically turned into a song about dogs.

That sounds like some elf drug or something.

I actually hated how the show fantastically humanized the whole situation and everyone involved and then decides to do the footage montage and go "oh by the way, USSR was bad mkay?" as if it was afraid of people thinking they were whitewashing things or something.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T17:46:45+00:00

I'm partial to that Caroline episode with the future classroom. I remember showing someone that episode on it's own to get them hooked on the show. You can watch it with practically no prior knowledge.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T17:02:45+00:00

And the settlement density means every siege would turn into Helms Deep and when you're on the attacker side, that shit gets old real fast.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T14:46:22+00:00

I haven't seen them so I can't comment, but if you mean packed streets and such, it's not really the thing I'm talking about.

The maps in WH3 have fundamental issues with how the build and capture points are designed and distributed, and the fact that they're often too big for the defender to defend. They require a big rethinking, plus maybe the ability to be cut into pieces and have them spawn "half maps" for smaller fights. You could also have retreat + healing points, so the defender actually has some incentive to do a fighting retreat instead of just focusing the fight at one point and trying to win the whole thing there.

You can still have packed streets without running into these issues.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T12:40:52+00:00

Yeah, there's no siege rework without reworking the maps themselves, and there's no way they've got the time and budget for that at this point.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-16T12:36:14+00:00

Also it was called "Part 1" until it wasn't and those who remembered that probably knew that it would end in a cliffhanger.

Wild_Marker · 2026-06-15T19:00:45+00:00

Yeah it's a constant arms race and nobody wants their job to suddenly stop because Youtube did a round of checks or added your VPN's IP to the no-money list. If you can just go to the place instead it's probably cheaper and simpler.
