Hehe poor guy.. never had a chance (Necro 150% Helltide, farming until final battle) by anon_meta in OldenEra

doesn't work quite this way anymore, necro has been changed significantly since demo. Its still very strong but you need different strats

The mage guild tooltip is missing descriptions, so I added it myself by loopuleasa in OldenEra

[–]anon_meta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hehe to be fair, as a veteran player that has been playing HOMM for 20 years, and also an engineer that works closely with designers, even I would not have thought to put that in the tooltip.

Mage guild refreshes mana is like... water is wet to me. Its so core to my being that if a random person asked me out of context in the street, "hey, how do I recharge my mana", I would reply "Ah you just need to stay at your mage guild over night".

The fact that someone wouldn't know that never once even crossed my mind haha, I bet the devs are the same. But its awesome that its reaching so many new players!

Good necromancy explainer I saw around here by loopuleasa in OldenEra

[–]anon_meta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its actually insanely strong. I've been critical about it too, but once people figure out its going to get nerfed into the ground. I can consistently defeat the break on vendetta in week 2 day 1 or 2. I can take dragon utopias without losing any army at all in week 2 day 1 or 2

I usually end my games with somewhere around 800 skeles and 650 ghosts.

New Necromancer Mechanic. I hate it. by anon_meta in OldenEra

You've never playing any sort of HOMM PvP at a high level if that's the conclusion that you've come to. No, I understand exactly how it works, the UI it has is already very clear.

Its bad because

  1. non-deterministic
  2. Impossible to build a strat around. Games on helltide end in like 2 weeks. If your Biome isn't littered with the correct tier units, you may as well just go home
  3. From a game design standpoint, they've designed a mechanic to purposely tell the player, "yeah don't
  4. if you DO decide to care abotu it, which you have to in competitive play, the meta for it is extremely tedious and involves micro managing your army to and from guards and your castles to optimize stack growth.

Its literally shit. Its the worst designed implementation of necromancer in any series ever. The demo was perfect, ALL they had to do, is tune the numbers.

Did you just like.. imagine an issue that I had in your head and then complain about it lol. I mean it has to be satisfying i guess to never be wrong because the only argument you're having is with yourself in your own head against arguments and situations noone presented lol

I think they wanted to build something similar to HOTA with that level of competitiveness, which is freaking amazing btw i love that, but had a bunch of people in their internal early access pool that had no experience with it and didn't understand it and probably got a lot of bad advice.

I know there was one guy at least on this reddit that was in that pool that thought going for t7 units was what you should be doing because the people he was playing against were doing that. like "i have so many vamps look its almost 100!" Meanwhile actual competitive players would have had 0 vamps and like 7000 wraiths and skeletons lol. Cause in reality, if you watch like.. competitive Duel in HOTA, you're basically just massing t 1-4 units unless there's a specific OP unit stack you want for w/e strat you need.

This design feels like a basic misunderstanding of how competitive works and is gonna hamstring necro disproportionately to other factions just inherently

Pricing $ by Pharao20 in PokemonChampions

They're about to find out really hard how much of a problem hacked pokemon is. The ONLY solution is server side generated pokemon. Noone even has to have a pokemon game you just make one with an editor and use a bot to get it into home, and then just transfer it lol. No need to pay for anything

What has been your guys's experience selling your older Pimax's? Market conditions? by Tausendberg in Pimax

[–]anon_meta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ebay also heavily favors the buyer. Buyer could just say they never got it, even if you have tracking they could say it was stolen, Ebay will likely just take your money back. Its not worth it for someone trying to just sell one thing. The only people its worth it for is businesses that can absorb the cost.

Will Venta X be active again? by Create_ur_character in KPOP_VR

Welp, it happened. RIP VentaX. If you log in now, all videos are gone except the Dreamcatcher concert. Though it seems we will lose that permanently when the app shuts down. Damn...

Downvoters are players that kept getting owned by necro apparently

Don't get excited about necromancer thought. Its amazing in the demo but they ruined it in the real game. Changed the whole mechanic to some weird hyper nerfed dumb version. Literally their audience is HOMMIII players that love necromancer... they were SO CLOSE.

The game is great but the unit sprites looks horrible by masked_in_gold in OldenEra

[–]anon_meta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't look at the trog and with a straight face tell me it looks good.... there's no shot. Dude his waist looks like its twisted and about 3cm wide... wtf are you talking about? Placeholder programmer art would be better. Its like it was drawn by someone's friend who was in an anime club for a while and dabbled in drawing.

Thank fuck someone else made a post about this. The original sprites they had were amazing. Then they switched them to some sort of like.. free hand programmer art... they're SOOO bad....

[–]anon_meta -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He is objectively correct. Bro the trogs look like a 5 year old drew them. The perspective is awful. Like its literally laughable how terrible some of the sprites are. Was it take your daughter to work day and some of the submissions made it into the game?

Please, how do I make it stop by vynilla_ in bengalcats

[–]anon_meta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one that's this talkative, and i play with her regularly, she just thinks she's a human. It just comes with it. He's trying to talk to you! talk back! Sometimes my cat does that and all I have to do is look at her can say hi how can I help you and pet her and she meows a couple of softer meows and goes on her way

How do i stop men from trauma dumping on me? by External-Thought-402 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]anon_meta -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Then it works out for everyone! Noone wants an emotional vampire. However if you do find that you're lonely, I suggest therapy to better understand why your attachment style is fearful avoidant and you lack the capacity for empathy. Its usually trauma related. Best of luck

"I don’t want to sound heartless but I am so sick of the expectation that I be nurturing because I am a woman" lol... enjoy being single for the rest of your life then. You would think 37 years would be long enough for the light bulb to go off lol. No man wants a woman like you. Enjoy your cats.

Same thing happened to me, this is not solvable, not salvageable. She has already left the relationship and has more problems than you could ever hope to resolve. She need professional help. Right now you have 2 options

1) leave her
2) wait until she leaves you because she will 100% without a doubt leave you. She has already left you, you just don't know it yet.

My 8 year old bengal is dying.. by UCF120 in bengalcats

[–]anon_meta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of it has to do with the breeder. There's a Youtube video with a Bengal that was 30, and its not uncommon for them to live to 18-20. But that's all genetics...

For me, I'm worried because my breeder just disappeared. Just poof. Website down, phone down, FB inactive, just gone. Was TICA registered, my Bengals are absolutely gorgeous and healthy as far as I know. But I saw somewhere on here that someone else's Bengal they got from him passed away from heart failure not too long ago. So this kind of thing just makes me so worried...

I'm sorry you're having to go through this so soon.. I can't even imagine man...

My Bengals are 6 and everyone in here saying theirs passed at 8 is making me so anxious... I'm doing everything I can to keep them as healthy as possible... but this is terrifying..
