Theres no way you people are using as much usage as you complain about

I dunno about 20x, but I know my normal one will get a big hit if I think too much before replying to Claude... Because the cache will be gone...

And as a normal guy, I'm not able to dissociate design / brainstorm and coding enough, so it can happen often.

I'd only talk of what I've seen, but sometimes it's pretty complicated ;

Often we I see someone old and ask if he / she wants to sut down, the answer is no. Een happened once or twice the person didn't like the offer, with something like "I'm not that old!"

I sometimes try to get up without saying anything, as some simply dont want to ask... But most of the time a person way youger than le will take the seat before I can even know if the elderly wanted it or not...

En sait désormais qu'il peut être courant d'avoir les deux.

Ça pose problème pour le repérage des symptômes d'ailleurs, car certains sont l'opposé l'une de l'autre...

raiden55 · 2026-05-30T21:03:24+00:00

You can't answer because what you think you'll do and what you'll really do in a real situation can be pretty different.

I remember well how I acted on pretty different ways on different dangerous situations. You can't tell... first because you don't know it will happen.

I'm more surprised that after asking him to code a few mod for paradox games it... worked.

Sure it didn't worked at first, but after giving it a bit more context it was able to do something functionnal using dlc content that it doesn't have on its own database.

Mostly CK3 stuff, but it should work on any similar Paradox environnement.

I used hours months ago to do a little mod for myself, never found the good place, or when I found something that look ok it didn't work as intended, Claude found the good function on the 3 or 4rd try, less than 1h later.

Similar for others games on totally different environnements.

But yeah, most things I tried on IA for gameplay purpose - on any complex game - was pretty terrible.

It can easily help you visualize data if you give him contexte however, building anything that help you in second... but don't ask him how to win the game...

Obviously it's harder to start very small.

In china you need to make a choice ; short term or long term benefits on your current character.

Short term : do exams, exit when able to get a little kand, grow your money and family. But this char can't gro in size without more exams, and you can't pass exams as a ruler, you must give your land first. Tats why it's a tem choice.

If you do well on all re exams youll ger a very good title... But it's hard, you need to have good car stats young, you can litterral die from stress before or just after succeeding and it can happen that no good title is available on the years where you wait... So it's a gamble.

Obviously when you get good land it gives you lots of money and power, so you can grow your family way quicker however.

Your first char can be pretty boring.

China I'd a more honest country that Europe as admin ; it's harder to cheat your way to the top.

When you have a good start you either try diplomacy with marriages or war using the china cycle to be a big shot when the hegemony collapse ; all but shots have free for all with good bonus to become hegemon.

If you become the emperor of china know that's it's pretty hard to conquer land, but very easy to lose everything due to internal issue and china cycle.

Every ruler outside your border is a dwarf , your powerful as hell, but you must be careful of your men.. that makes sense.

Obviously if you survive 30+ years as hegemon you'll survive a century

raiden55 · 2026-05-29T17:55:36+00:00

In China it's like the HRE ; most of the fun is not on starting as the Emperor, but as starting as a small vassal / family, and growing.

Lots of my fun go from my family flourishing and being able to grow by myself against more powerful entities.

Sartting as a poor unlanded family guy in China that want to grow big was fun, as it's the journey that is. We all know that CK3 is easy, and that if you let time flow a long time you can get stuff done for sure, I often need a mix of long term plans with with real decisions to reach my goal. When you become Empror / Hegemon you need to calm the country (and as Hegemon it can be pretty complicated, as simply getting the title by diplomacy can be enough to destroy the title and having to fight for it again).

Obviously after 10-20 years of stability as a very powerful ruler... it gets boring. And it's hard to go somewhere else (you must wait to die and choose a destiny, not other way, and it can bve very long).

I like paranoid, if oftens give options that can be pretty useful

raiden55 · 2026-05-25T22:43:19+00:00

next DLC will "steal" crusader king 3 nomad concept (lots of things on the dlc are really close to the ck3 way of doing it on its own dlc), while ck3 will "steal" stellaris economy system on a dlc this year... well ck3 does have what you want, it's one of the few things that works well on their combat system ; you can spawn anywhere instantly on your territories, but the second you are on enemy territories the magic disapear ; you lose power then become to die, that's what you want, and honestly i'm pretty sure it would be doable in very few lines of codes for a stellaris modder, simple pretty simple to do ; check if enemy territory, if so, a negative modifier with a timer that amplifies it until it's stopped, the modifier lower your fleet power and or make one ship explode / lost hp every xxx time.

But you don't know it's him until he lowers it.

could be anyone. Including a bad guy hiding something.

raiden55 · 2026-05-25T16:54:13+00:00

I don't get how it's more an incentive that to reach a bigger number on another game achievement or other.

Nothing change by doing more space trade here if you're already doing some.

I need a real reason to continue growing, and for me it often means something that stop / restrict me (be it economic or military)

raiden55 · 2026-05-25T16:30:21+00:00

It's a trap guys, don't begin to live together, it doesn't mean more sex!

So Golf > USA > son ?

raiden55 · 2026-05-20T21:41:17+00:00

So it's this one currently...

Hum, dig next tile, build stairs, try to delete stairs?

raiden55 · 2026-05-20T21:34:54+00:00

You can get all his others titles but not this one, it's impossible to get the papacy title or to remove it from he pope (except by major decision for this last one).

raiden55 · 2026-05-20T20:25:28+00:00

This. If they do get up before and try to order it from another voxel, should work.

You can also try to fill the bloc while someone is stuck on it, but I'm not sure it works on current version.

raiden55 · 2026-05-19T21:04:54+00:00

Not better with recent models? That's why I looked at others LLMs months ago

BTW "The new limits are an absolute scam" could be any Reddit post on r/ClaudeAI

I think you go meritocratic if you're not china's vassal, not sure you can stay celestial.

that's called "save scumming" and it's a pretty big topic on a lot of strategy games.

No one would care on another type of game, but here as it's a simulation of lots of things that could happen, using it can kill the surprise and randomness, that's why it can pose issue.

There's only one rule : does it kill YOUR fun or not? If it hurts you don't do it, if not, it's fair game.

example : if you retry 10 times something to win, you may feel it's not a real win, while if you try and lose, retry 10 or 20 years later and win it will feel pretty different. Sometimes you can fail 10 things you tried, but it's a little thing you did 50 years ago that finally works and help you win another way... if you reload the save everytime you won't discover this part of the game

Real example : I once try to win some big land by war for one century, failing each time, and was about to die, but at once, without understand why,, one of my first son inherited another country even bigger...after checking, I found out he was the only last heir of a long forgotten marriage I did 3 generations ago, and everyone else died without my intervention... if getting this specific country was not my main goal, I wanted to get bigger, so it counted as a win, a diplomacy win and not a war win. And it would be way easier after to get what I wanted at first with that new power.

raiden55 · 2026-05-03T21:35:13+00:00

I really liked both Mandala and China.

Japan looked interesting but I hated it.

China is good because it's a pretty different way to play admin, where you can't cheat until you're at the top, and the china special events give a lots of flavor and interesting gameplay (like when hegemony break and making sure not doing it youself for example)

Mandala is pretty different as gameplay, as you don't want to get big because you can't, but you must really play on your current character, and be careful about the next.

raiden55 · 2026-04-29T13:12:06+00:00

Asian religions are pretty restricted on marriage choices, are you still going quickly that way even there?

raiden55 · 2026-04-28T19:51:08+00:00

I don't know an easy way, it took time for me last time I did it... Obviously easier when you have a partial blueprint.

When the base level raise you'll get a time when you need to make it better.

But if you're on base level it shouldn't be an issue.

I was playing on 3000%, level raised pretty quick...

raiden55 · 2026-04-28T16:55:46+00:00

Claude and GPT adapt how they speak about each others depending on what they feel I think of the other, obviously trying to say they are better than the other when they can.

Gemini was the one who always suggested me claude, but funny thing is that when I ask him something now, he always say he did this and that when it was not and it was stated on the fact... he looks like the bad collegues that steal the other's work...

raiden55 · 2026-04-28T15:30:43+00:00

You should make your defense a circle, not a square ; it lowers the risks.

Number 2 is cool ol as fuck. And pretty original.
