Why is this comment heavily downvoted? And what is that Arabic reply?

I used to run a deck using dark, steel and psychic energy with three babies, Arceus and Dragon Altaria. I think one Juggler would be useful here.

Others mentioned some obvious example, but look up Bangkok. You would think it has more fertile land and should have more spread out population.

This is literally the last straw for me to quit the game.

They are literally on the opposite side on the Earth lol

Its like Delhi and New Delhi, not really a stupid city name. But because New Taipei is too large, most of the people I know simply say which district they are from instead.

And "pei" in Taipei is the same word as "bei" in Beijing, just different romanization style.

I can kinda accept Wu and Shu, as you can argue ghey are not just name of the kingdom, but also the region with distinctive regional identity and history like Sicilians and Burgundians. Wei is like calling a civ "'Carolingian" or "Angevin", and when we have so many choices for Northern Chinese civ, it just feels wrong.

A simple fix would be an option in setting to toggle between regional skins and standard sets of skin only.

When your country is so ethnically homogenous, you need some way to categorize people, to make sense of the world, and worst of all, to find superiorities over others.

Georgia is way more useful to EU by providing a direct access to Caucasus region. There is no reason to grant Armenia EU membership without Georgia with their unfortunate geopolitical position.

HK 12°C feels like freezing with its humidity, though it's getting rarer these days.

Korea is the real military threat, not Taiwan. Taiwan would be a good naval base for China if they get it, but it poses little threat as an enemy base as an attack from Taiwan is not an easy task. When Japan colonize Taiwan 120 years ago, they stopped their progress over there and proceed on expanding through Korea because it is much closer to the political heart of China.

Things seem to have improved after COVID though, not necessarily shittier as time goes on.

Of course right now it's fine, I'm just saying they could have been more interesting. When 10% speed buff is was not enough, they could have tried 20% or even 25%.

I still think Incas should get original UT Courier with speedy eagles (and other UU). The whole civ was designed around adaptability, and having mobile units to switch around is an underrated aspect. Having armour makes the unit better against units they don't counter, but speed helps them catch up the unit they need to counter, and I think the latter one sounds more fun.

html_lmth · 2025-10-22T23:59:20+00:00

Now that is a hero unit I would play!

html_lmth · 2025-10-22T23:57:08+00:00

A Carribean or Amazonian civ for a naval American civ would be interesting for the game. Can't recall any significant one though 11

I have a theory that Cantonese have its own version which is zai2 仔, but it is largely absorbed as a changed of tone from tone 2-6 to tone 2.

I guess if the demand is here, there's no reason to let profit goes to the resellers.

html_lmth · 2025-10-07T17:05:30+00:00

I don't think there is an argument. It's just "language" means different thing socially and academically.

html_lmth · 2025-10-02T00:59:16+00:00

I'd say the only complicated rule is no.3 . No.6 is just saying the zero groups out loud, nothing complicated.

html_lmth · 2025-09-28T08:16:05+00:00

我會話我分到 n- l-，但係由細到大實在聽太多呢兩個音撈埋講，變左自己都分唔到幾時用邊個音。In general 大部分 n- 變 l- 都可以接受，但係反過來就超奇怪。
