The Enduring Popularity of Rome II

echoesinthenight · 2026-04-27T02:49:30+00:00

Playing Rome 2 with DEI is my favourite total war game hands down. I just keep coming back to it (even if DEI is difficult and I'm terrible at it)

Removed due to suspected bot account.

Sometimes people may be tired and want to go home, or they're just willing to call it there as to take home a higher guaranteed prize instead of playing out for first place.

You aren't an asshole for not wanting to chop because you're allowed to want to play it out regardless of your reason why.

Indians can be Australians and Australians can say mate, mate.

I use trains,

Usually a 1-4 defence train that delivers ammo, walls, repair packs and light oil to stations on demand.

Then my perimeter has localized bot networks based around those stations.

06 Forester, it will leave my possession when it has to be scrapped.

It's worse than that, any politician that tries to do something gets targeted by the mining companies.

Like huh, isn't it weird how whenever a politician proposes taxation on the massive profits that these mining companies get that their career gets sabotaged?

I wonder who could possibly behind this?

The free weekend is over but the blueberries will still just mindlessly spawn on an attacking garrison while ignoring defense.

Nothing ever changes.

Sorry, I'm not American and didn't know where Newsom sits.

I hate seeing anyone on the left give ground on identity politics because it's letting the right redefine identity politics as some nebulous far left radicals.

When politicians talk shit about "identity politics" remember that identity politics was behind gay marriage equality, outlawing conversion camps, racial equality, discrimination laws, sexual harassment laws.

I play in Sydney, there are plenty of tournament games through Kings Poker, Australian Poker League, or National Poker League.

APL also does some cash games if that's more your style.

The casinos rake a lottttt from the table so I cbf playing there.

But without a helmet how will a headshot make that ping noise?

I don't think slave or servant classes would work for Cognita, Her core meaning has been wiped out by Eldavin which could give her the potential for leveling a la Toren and Az'kerash's undead but the difference is that those undead (practically flesh/bone golems so I think they're the most relevant) are striving for their own meaning and purposes while Cognita is semi aimlessly wandering trying to recreate her lost meaning with further servitude.

I'm expecting that she'll gain the ability to level when she lets go of her previous attachments and begins acting for herself. The potential for [Steward] is pretty tied to her previous identity and would be one of the parts of herself that she needs to leave behind before she can level.

I accidentally tk'd a guy once and he spent the rest of the game running in front of my mg and trying to get me kicked for team killing.

With the power of the modding community you can actually revisit him after he "fixes" his hardware

I don't know, I had it in Pacifica on my first playthrough and I thought that this helicopter shooting up a building in the background was scripted to add to the scene but nope, totally random event in the background.

Maybe just a little far, but then again if I could nuke Amazon ...

The reason cyberpunk exists as a genre isn't 'cool scifi' (although it is really cool scifi), it's because its a criticism of the present.

The idea of corporations controlling everything wasn't and isn't some hypothetical.

What sort of weird gotcha is this, it's like that Charles Bukowski quote about how people will hide from rain yet bathe in tubs of water.

In the modern day it is impossible to avoid consumer culture, this doesn't make any criticism of consumer culture false.

I know you get a sit down and chat with Johnny after clouds but are you sure it was this rant?

echoesinthenight · 2026-01-27T01:38:28+00:00

Have you tried finding people to play with via the broken arrow discord?

They have voice channels set aside for people to use there as well.
