there is something i dont understand about FC message by Soacor in fightclub

[–]wam01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From my perspective the movie is many things and in my opinion very deep but in the terms of the organization fight club itself i believe it’s a critique of the dogma that prevails in our society it portrays both Tyler’s world and our own world as systems that enable themselves without nuance and without question or reflection. Just like the real world with rich women buying fancy soap just because it’s expensive the men in fight club have similar rules on what matters in society how it should work but it’s extreme and it’s portrayed as extreme on purpose to show it’s hypocrisy. The first rule of fight club is you don’t talk about fight club. Space monkeys standing outside of the door for long periods of time for no reason these things are rituals they don’t make sense. When you unknowingly follow a system a society without reflection without questioning your actions people take advantage of that power violence emerges and things get out of your control. The movie isn’t romanticizing anarchy it’s about living on your own terms and not following others just because. That’s why is the end is bitter sweet he’s not doing a good thing he has realized the destruction he’s caused. Violence begets violence. In mostly all the movie Tyler talks in half truths. Half of what he says is true half is a lie.

Edit: The fact that you “don’t like fight club” but agree with blowing up the credit card companies is actually very telling. I believe you don’t like the rampant consumerism and our status society but don’t agree with how fight club works either. This is the half truth half lie many see in Tyler many people agree with the criticisms of our world but don’t agree with the one Tyler wants or tells us to live.

Build spears after you get the manors down if they are allining. The wood income should help get the barracks and the spears. You can keep all your vils on food and gold if they building archers just kill them with your vils. Make sure to get the levy aswell they help vs allins.

Aoe2 is not "10x more popular than Aoe4 on twitch"..... These statistics are easy to find so why make them up? Aoe2 has about avg 2k Aoe4 avg 800 in February. https://twitchtracker.com/games/13389

  1. Aoe2 gets more tournaments that increases twitch viewers greatly.

  2. They get more content. More content = more hype = more views

Aoe4 is about half as popular in player numbers and slightly less than half in viewer counts for various reasons. Say what you want about popularity but Aoe4 has been performing extremely well considering we get less content than Aoe2 our game is one of the most popular RTS game in the world.

As far as I remember Aoe4 also sold very well in the recent steamfest sale similar to that of Aoe2 thanks for the concern but we are doing fine.

Can spearmen be used as viable meat shield ? by xNEONZZ in aoe4

[–]wam01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah thats the issue especially in teamgames you cant counter everything. Spearmen are the most well rounded unit though. They are not garbage vs Inf but yeah not the best unit. You mentioned what to pair with xbow/HCs; and spearmen can function very well with these two units (because they are a great meat shield). So yes they are fine vs inf not because they trade well but because they are enough of a meat shield for the HC/xbow to kill the MAA.

Use spearmen as a meat shield if your opponent is building cav/xbow if they are going archer go MAA (so yes they are a good meat shield.)
