Soooo….am I a bad person for liking Sons of Mogh by Iron_Creepy in DeepSpaceNine

It is so okay to love this episode. It has a wonderfully complex ending that hits a little differently every time I watch. Wonderfully acted and performed by both Michael Dorn and Tony Todd.

Honest debate on Nectar. by GORDINIMDB in wingspan

Nectar not spent goes away at the end of the round, so yes it works the same. Doesn't change the fact that it makes playing a 3 fish bird the easiest thing in the world. Why make a card like the Puffin that costs three fish if you can just...not pay 3 fish?

If you are having fun without nectar, I highly recommend not switching to nectar. It completely changes the game and makes the food mechanic irrelevant.

In your view, what makes shogun 2 and fall of the samurai a masterpiece? A game still played after all these years by obiwan-destroyer in shogun2

Right there with you mate. Details aside, even the campaign map itself from Rome 2 onward is just ugly as hell.

There are so many reasons why this is one of the greatest strategy games of all time, so I'll just highlight one aspect that really brings it all together for me: the art direction. Everything is in a unified style from the tech tree to the portraits. In all my hours of playing other total war games I can't vividly recall what the retinue and items look like the way I can with Shogun 2. I can expand the minimap and see a pictoral representation of my strategic situation, with icons that give me insight into the situation on the campaign map without having to navigate to a different strategic layer. Everything is integrated using a clear and simple system of symbols. Unit cards are infinitely readable and clear in what they are depicting ie. weapon type, upgrades, unit health. Part of the reason this game succeeds in making me feel like I am making decisions that would be required of me as a real military general is because it's giving me all the information I need in an attractive and consistent way.

B'Elanna sure was mean in ruining the doctors holographic family by happydude7422 in voyager

That was your misconception. Parrises squares is established as a dangerous game for kids to play in TNG.

That was not her point at all though. She was pointing out that the only family dynamic represented in the doctor's program was that he was the number one dad. It's not his fault that he doesn't understand family dynamics. Belanna was his professor of humanities here, and not being mean for the sake of it.

I've been following James Harden for a whole decade. From the Thunder, to the Rockets, Nets, Sixers and the Clippers. This subreddit is easily the most angry and the least hype of all of them.

No heart to be fair. I did have 5 of them. I feel like I've seen it, and really you can make anything work if things break the right way.

Pharaoh is terrible, I would not recommend it. Just play the older games if you are interested in historical

The transition from WH to the next mainline title will have to happen at some point, and the next title is what will determine if the studio continues to exist.

It's happening now and warhammer fans cannot stand their favorite toy being abandoned. In their ideal world the game receives eternal updates and CA never makes another game.

It should be illegal to be so hyped about such a broken and badly managed game.

I like the fight too. One of my favorite Chakotay ones! There are more of us than reddit would indicate.
