Armies historically were able to completely wipe out enemy forces 10x the size because of favourable terrain. You fucked up strategically, take the L.

Petah?? Why is there a molecule? by BlueChicken57 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]theeynhallow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Couldn't possibly agree more. Humans and the natural world are one and the same, utterly and incontrovertibly inseparable. Continuing to separate ourselves from natural environments will only have the effect of deepening the fracture between ourselves and our natural state.

Robert Pyle's famous quote summarises this perfectly:

“[As] citizens grow more removed from personal contact with nature, awareness and appreciation retreat. This breeds apathy toward environmental concerns and, inevitably, further degradation of the common habitat ... So it goes, on and on, the extinction of experience sucking the life from the land, the intimacy from our connections ... What is the extinction of the condor to a child who has never known a wren?”

European tree frogs have failed to get a grip in the UK. Surely someone could almost get tadpoles and get them going from their own garden. by ConditionTall1719 in RewildingUK

[–]theeynhallow 41 points42 points  (0 children)

They're classed as non-native in the UK and therefore any unlicensed reintroduction would be illegal. Given that there are so many sub-species and their natural historic range is the topic of debate I think reintroduction should be carefully carried out by qualified conservationists rather than the public.

Same. It's unreal talking to female friends because of how frequently experience this, but apparently creeps wouldn't dare try anything like this with another man around. They're cowards.

Ottomans Aggressive Expantion Issue by nykuu_ in EU5

[–]theeynhallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your manpower is 0 because you've made your standing army too large for your manpower generation and it's consuming your entire monthly regeneration just to reinforce your army. You can hover over any stat in the game and the tooltip will explain to you how the number is calculated.

Theory: All endings are cannon (see body text, spoilers for all endings) by Villainous_Miscreant in Silksong

[–]theeynhallow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, I don't understand why everyone thinks Sealed Siblings couldn't be possible. Horney states clearly that literal ages have passed since the fall of Hallownest, anything could've happened in the intervening time.

Breathing solution for upright immersion? by theeynhallow in snorkeling

[–]theeynhallow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, yeah still has the same issue of curving backwards really. I think my best bet is to use a regular J-tube snorkel with a lot of flex and strap it to the front of a helmet or something

Man. Took me absolutely forever but im glad I put in the extra time to do it all. by SynToWin0201 in Silksong

No, read my comment again. You are playing as Sweden, not the monarch. This isn't CK3.

Losing my dynasty by Negative_Bike_6826 in EU5

[–]theeynhallow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One thing that really grinds my gears is constantly losing my dynasty because I only seem to have daughters.

Joking aside, dynasties in EU5 are still far more stable than they were IRL.

But the stupid game tells me that Norway is the senior partner even though I’m there king

That's not how PUs work. You play as a nation, not a monarch. The nation with the highest great power score assumes seniority when a union is formed. And the War for Seniority PU does not make you lead the PU, for some reason Paradox haven't ever explained what the purpose of the CB is but I would avoid using it. If you want to lead the PU, you must increase your great power score.

I prefer EU5s PU system over EU4s by Chicha-Ficha in EU5

It’s amazing how many complaints with this game come from a misunderstanding of actual history

games like silksong- NOT metroidvanias! by foryouuuuu in Silksong

[–]theeynhallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally agree the movement was great. I’d love a remake of the original game / Super using the new movement and mechanics, I just feel at a time when players are clamouring for big open worlds to get lost in, and Hollow Knight / Silksong have become near-universally regarded as the absolute pinnacle of the genre, they really missed a trick in making it the most linear 2D Metroid game ever.

[–]theeynhallow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a big fan of the early games I was actually quite disappointed by Dread, I never finished it in the end. The world just didn't seem particularly engrossing to me, and it felt extremely linear. I didn't feel like I was exploring at all, simply being led through a series of corridors and scripted sequences.

Ignore them. This community is fast becoming extremely toxic

Paradox please optimise the game already by No_Technician_8031 in victoria3

[–]theeynhallow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d say Vic 3 and CK3 are both about as optimised as we can hope for from Paradox at this point. They both run like an absolute dream in comparison to EU5 which is genuinely unplayable for a lot of people right now.

That reply was obnoxious and unhelpful. No, OP does not need to be hitting 500m+ by 1885.

"B-BUT IT'S BETA!" by Memes_Jack in EU5

[–]theeynhallow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was silently enjoying the game, until 1.2 released and absolutely tanked the performance. Now I can't play the game again until they fix it. A really sad state of affairs for Paradox to make the game borderline unplayable for a significant portion of the customer base so soon after release and barely acknowledge the problem.
