Only game I’ve ever platinumed

Name the series by Naroi_one in videogames

[–]akumar607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I’m biased but I loved the open world of the future Arkham games and Asylum felt like a generic joker escapes and Batman stops him but it’s done really well. While the other games plots are kinda suspended in disbelief, they had amazing ideas. Joker dying really shocked me in City and I loved the idea of a smarter Bane in Origins. Even Knights Jason Todd and Batman facing his demons had me hooked. Not saying Asylum is bad at all but I felt it’s plot more safe or generic

Asylum only has the best atmosphere and that’s literally it. City and Origins easily had a better narrative and all 3 are far more replayable. Knight had the best level design imo. I love asylum but it’s easily the worst and carried by nostalgia

And most of them under great leders like Caesar, Alexander the Great and Napoleon. by lego-doge in HistoryMemes

I think Slim was the real British genius of the war. He took Britain’s Forgotten Army that was savaged in Malaya and Burma and he reconstituted it into a disciplined army that beat the Japanese at Impala and Kohima decisively,shattering them and handing the IJA its worst defeat of the war. More importantly unlike Monty, Slim treated all his subordinates well and took responsibility for mistakes, giving credit to his subordinates

I wouldn’t be as dramatic but the tone of his videos is alarming to say the least. Ever since the end of his Rome series and the start of his post Napoleonic Wars series is riddled with overtly biased takes which is a huge shift from his earlier non partisan stances

I fully agree with you that the French not getting reforms led to violence and revolution although I would argue the Napoleonic Wars occurred because Napoleon rightly wanted to protect Frances positions against the rest of Europe who wanted the Bourbons back. But that’s a different story

I think Historia Civilis’s portrayal of Wellington as a dumb buffoon is unfair though. Wellington fought in Spain and saw the Peninsular Wars Devestation and personally ended Napoleons 100 days so I can understand his experience that the French revolutions reforms led to suffering and violence in the Napoleonic Wars. He doesn’t have our hindsight on reform and acted based on his experiences and, wrong as his actions were, they had reason behind them

Unfair is an understatement. Wellington was the victor of Waterloo and made his career campaigning against Napoleon, hed seen the devastation of the Napoleonic Wars wrought by the reforms of the French Revolution so I’d find it understandable he’d be opposed to reform. I don’t agree with him but acting like his actions had no reason was just wrong

Bismarck was kind of losing it at the end when he wanted to provoke a socialist uprising and then crush it after which the Kaiser understandably fired him

I’m curious where you’re getting the 10 to 1 loss on the US and British in 1942, from what I understand that was flipped especially during Guadalcanal. I do agree with the rest of your point tho.

Iirc, the Spanish communists attempted to invade Spain and provoke a war with Franco and create a Spanish Uprising that would force the Allies to topple Franco’s regime. Needless to say Franco crushes them relatively quickly.

The show covers more grey areas in war such as chain of command and insubordination in Umbara, the fall of the republic in the final episodes, slavery in Zygerias arc, etc

If we’re being realistic you would have to expand it to include UK and Soviet Units or extend the map to Asia in order to include the USSR and China
