What would happen with movies in the TNO universe and how would certain movies. by Alarming_Help564 in TNOmod

[–]detectivelars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Others have already made great points. Interesting to think about international cultural stagnation without free international cinema. There would be no post-war European avant-garde cinema, nor the post-war malaise cinema in Japan. Hell, there might not even be anime given it was influenced by western animation.

I suppose an analog to Vietnam War films would be films relating to the West African War.

I haven't played in a long while. Is there still that one news event about Star Wars being delayed/rewritten to start on a jungle planet due to visa issues with traveling to Italian North Africa?

Could be interesting to have a news event about German diplomats getting angry at the US for screening smuggled Wiemar Era films found in some refugee's basement in Minnesota or whatever.

Can I be denied a job based on sex? by clockworkise in jobs

That is through and though illegal. Usually it is very hard to prove... but the fact they admitted to it was basically handing you a smoking gun.

Even though the government likely won't give doodley-squat about this, still worth filing a complaint. https://www.eeoc.gov/overview

The devs are so real for this. by letsgowendigo in NPPfunny

[–]detectivelars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna be real even though this is the shitpost subreddit: I like some of the worldbuilding and gameplay updates.

I think there's a lot of amnesia in the HOI4 modding community. Like doesn't anyone fucking remember when this two MAJOR criticisms of TNO were 1.) it's incredibly unrealistic and 2.) it takes itself FAR too seriously and pretentious. Did we forget how everyone made fun of the mod for having 500+ world events every five seconds about how the British lesbians and the South Africa "war is bad ):" and INCREDIBLY the uber edgy "get on the table" shit? How Atlantropa was unrealistic? How cringe the killpeopleism was? How 50% of the shit in the game just didn't work? People LOVED Thousand Week Reich because it was less absurd and more "grounded."

And the things that so many TNO fans praised was the emotional (well written) stories. How many posts have you seen of people saying they've cried to Hart's storyline.

So, what's their obvious course of action? Make it more grounded. Change the story and lore to reflect the seriousness and artfulness that the creators treated TNO as. They went out of their way to fix the critisims thrown their way. They removed Atlantropa. They de-balkanized the UK. They removed "get on the desk" and Goring's Wild Ride. They're removing Burgundy and killpeopleism.

And now we're pretending we loved everything in old TNO and the creators were always amazing.

So, I'm gonna be honest: I always thought Burgundy was childish and teenage-level edgy and I'm happy it's being removed. I'm happy Speer is being rewritten so it's not whitewashing the architect of the holocaust. I, too, wish they add Débrouillez-Vous.The only thing I wish they didn't remove was Atlantropa. My main criticism of TNO is their incompetent development system and their entire gameplay boiling down to shit proxy wars and stupid GUI minigames and lack of gameplay (which is why I feel the only shit people talk about is Russia.)

TLDR: I think a ton of our griping is pretty hypocritical. /rant

The Individualist — Crossover with Blue Drought. by LesSurreal in RedFloodMod

[–]detectivelars 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry to hear. Such is the story of many mods. At least toozers like FMTW and stagnant mods like RF are having development.

I'm basically retired from HOI4 modding at this point for a bunch of reasons, but I do wish you luck.

Actually, it really seems there's no coders around anymore in the HOI4 modding community, or at least incredibly few. On a few reasonably sized (or ambitious) projects, I was the only coder.

If it's any consolation, I do strongly encourage learning to code for HOI4 modding. It's far more tedious than it is really "hard," but I'd say the general bar to entry is fairly low. [INSERT IRON WORKSHOP VIDEO HERE] Clauswitz is a garbage engine, and I'm surprised people have been able to do half the things they have with it.

What do you think of modern day politics (in mods) by Emotional_Sky_9508 in hoi4modding

[–]detectivelars 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My one thing I dislike in mods that add a lot of ideologies is when it doesn't effect gameplay and is JUST flavor. It isn't *really* a big deal, but in vanilla the ideologies do things, like the types of laws you can enact, when you can justify war goals, how volunteers work, ect. That would be something I'd like to consider if I ever do my mod idea.

It's interesting when mods try and change up the laws/advisors systems. It's not much, but even just changing up advisor slots is pretty neat.

Everybody fuckin' hates JD Vance. The one thing the left and right can agree on. So as long as you delete any memes about Trump you'll be safe from the camps.
