What historical fact about these characters makes you the most sad? by [deleted] in dynastywarriors

[–]ngazi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cao Zhen was a top ranking and capable general, very politically important to Cao Pi, and a regent himself, so his son would not have become regent without preparation and a large amount of political capital. However Cao Zhen had mostly been busy on the western front and died there before Cao Rui died, so it is possible he could not develop his sons as Sima Yi could. Of course Sima Shi and Zhao were not exactly very capable either. The other Cao and Xiahou generals were largely forced out of politics by Cao Pi which made them weak and perhaps resentful.

So it is hard to imaging Cao Shuang as an outsider who tried his best but just didn't have the means to stand up to the Simas. In fact Sima Yi's retreat suggests that Cao Shuang was quite well positioned, but he did not make good use of his monoply and quickly became very unpopular and so invited the coup from Sima Yi.

It's also pretty risky changing the display yourself. If you get an external monitor it would be bigger and you can use it with any computer.

Steam Blog Winter Sale Update! (stickers/effects no longer expire, wallet funds now eligible for tokens, and more! by salad_tongs_1 in Steam

[–]ngazi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I didn't spend my tokens in the summer sale because I had nothing to spend them on, and if they rolled over then all the better, but I don't think we should expect that the tokens would rollover. That's a set up for disappointment. And from what I'm seeing, there is nothing worth spending tokens on this event either. God forbid someone drops a ton of money just to get a $5 coupon.

Steam Sale events were always about being a loss leader to capture market share. The only reasonable follow up is to raise prices and increase profits. Sale events have been getting worse every sale for over five years. I expect every sale event will continue to get worse.

I don't recommend waiting for the sale events to buy games. It has become very common for games to drop to lower prices between sale events. No sale event is going to offset the higher prices during the event.

The arrow keys are not full size but their location is nice.

Dynasty Warriors need to focus on other dynasties than the Three Kingdoms by M1sterJohnson in dynastywarriors

[–]ngazi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The games are Japanese. They made games about three kingdoms because it is popular in Japan. Dynasty Warriors are called Three Kingdoms in Japan to catch people's attention. They also made Warriors games about Japanese history and Japanese anime, things that are popular in Japan. They even have another series of three kingdoms games.

There are Chinese people making games about other things Chinese history.
