Civilization and 4x games Anonymous 37609[Reply]

I love Civ 5 so much.
Amazing visuals, extremely comfy music.
It's not the best mechanics-wise but the devs basically released all the tools needed for modders to fix it.

What we think about civ 7. Everyone's chimping about the gameplay, I watched gameplay of it and it is strange. It strays from the usual selection system.
I've exhausted my fun out of civ 6 so I will try civ 5, you influenced me nona now I will have to put a halt on being a functional human being.

I honestly liked the changing civs gimmick, but I guess it'd be better off as an option in a campaign and not central to the entire game. It'd be even better if they gave you the option to change leaders instead imo cause that just makes sense.
I kinda like how they added Machiavelli.

I recommend the Vox Populi mod for civ 5. The original civ 5 is barebones and the expansions slightly improve it, but Vox Populi adds:
1) vassalage
2) monopolies
3) smarter ai that you can't just bribe to wage war on anyone you don't like
4) important: better unit upgrades cause the original ones suck
5) improved culture trees. made warring even more fun than it was. the original made tradition too good
6) improved civ abilities
I think that's about it

Thoughts on self shipping? I don't dislike it or like it, it's cute that they're happy I guess but it's still strange to me. Especially to the point where people 'marry' fictional characters. It isn't real connection, so I guess I wonder how these sorts of 'relationships' work. I say it isn't a real connection because rather than loving a whole person with flaws and interests, that you have to coexist with, you only love the image of them that you have in your mind. I don't know if there are any studies on whether or not it's unhealthy or not so for now I'm on the fence about having any firm beliefs. I have also had obsessions in certain characters but never to the point where I 'married' them

i recently found out that a fuckton of the people i hang out with on this game are women too. why are there so many on this game in particular? it has really surprised me and it's been super nice because i have no other female friends (that i know of) and i've known some of these people for years without ever realizing they weren't moids. if you roleplay, tell me about/show me your characters? i have a theory about what characters moids play by the way alphinaud is best boy

Do you avoid romance media because you're lonely nona? Anonymous 37872[Reply]

I like romance but I can't watch it without feeling miserable about my own love life, so I avoid it. I wondered if any of you felt similarly.

It's just stupid and they're all cash grabs without any sincerity. I tried a couple times thinking maybe just maybe I'm wrong but every time I came back realizing I was right all along, as always.

Anonymous 38208

Straight romance media is either a snoozefest or makes me roll my eyes every 5 seconds or so, I find yaoi and yuri more interesting on average.
So essentially I do avoid straight romance, but can tolerate it if its not too obnoxious. I like yaoi and yuri better but romance isn't exactly my #1 favorite genre so I usually don't go out of my way to find it. None of this is because I'm lonely, however.

Anonymous 38252

I avoid straight romance too because I hate how women are written. Can we name any straight romance where they show a future shot of the old and gray couple and they're just happily hanging out and never had children? That's a big part that fucks me up. If I like a female character, she's usually a cool adventure lady, and to see her fate as being demoted to pregnant and/or nurturing just ruins the whole thing. Kids ruin adventure and romance, I don't want to see anything to do with the topic.

This usually doesn't happen with the gay male ships. Though with the trans stuff in the past 10 years, I've seen more art where they turn one female and she ends up pregnant anyway, so I can't even get away from it that way anymore. I've learned that I don't hate romance, I hate contrivances and unequal relationships that are treated as normal.

this reminds me how a lot of the time the mc in otome games is an amorphous blob. she's often timid, lame and lacks initiative.

I mean it makes sense, MCs in romance are often like that so the other characters have more space to shine, but I just think it is lame. I want something like female Rance

Anonymous 38285

i like looking at romance media with rly abusive relationships - not that i want them irl lol. it just makes me feel better about myself and its on the same entertainment level as true crime

"older" internet Anonymous 216[Reply]

remember when, before social networks got huge, everyone had their own little website? a custom made corner of the internet to display your interests and personality? gfx sites with paint shop pro tutorials?

the only comparable thing I can think of today is Tumblr, but it seems like personal websites have died out.

FF7-Original-Yuffi…

Popular characters that you hate Anonymous 26855[Reply]

We already have a "hated" characters that you love thread so I thought why not do the opposite?

Anyway, mine is Yuffie from FF7.
She used to be mainly hated but now she seems mainly loved so I think she counts.
I will never forgive her for stealing my materia and her design is lame too. She's just annoying for no good reason, but annoying characters seem to get a pass if they're a "cute" girl. You can make a character energetic without being annoying. If Wutai was completely run down and shabby maybe I'd have some sympathy but not only does it look completely fine, it's quite pretty and in way better condition than Sector 7 was. Actually it seems better than where I live irl lol. She adds nothing to the story or cast and is actively mean to Barret too.
Tifa is by far my favorite in the OG and Aerith is by far my favorite in the Remake, she barely felt like a character in the OG. But yeah, Yuffie sucks and her fans go rabid if you dare dislike her cuz she's so quirky teehee
Only talking about OG Yuffie I haven't played her Remake DLC

Hinata from Naruto

Not her specifically- I actually think she can be cute- but what she represents

I hate the fact that the author basically created her to be the male fantasy (submissive and simpy, giant tits) so that weebs could contrast her with Sakura (who is bad because she is flat chested and uppity apparently) and all the moids goon over how "waifu tier" she is

Have you tried Clojure? It has access to the entire Java standard library (due to being a JVM language) and is still Lisp-based. You may like it if you prefer Lisp but want the power of Java.

I haven't watched G-cucks because I hate Tomino but that aside and responding to this, are you genuienly dumb?
Gundam Wing, Turn A, SEED, 00 and even IBO (which I wish I could delete from existence) exist. They all appeal to women and I'd dare say even have them at their forefront in mind.
Gundam Wing was literally all about exploiting the boygroup craze of the 90s, Turn A is structured like a soap opera, I even showed it to my mom and she only grew up with shit like Heidi and she loved it, SEED is all about showing off how cute Athrun and Kira are while having girls show off their asses so that boys aren't embarassed to watch it and IBO was the most blatant pandering even if it was shit.

Read what you quoted from my post carefully. Gundam always is among male dominant franchises in Japan. Even after that lesbian anime came out surveys still show moids take up about 70-80% of fanbase
>They all appeal to women and I'd dare say even have them at their forefront in mind
Women are very easy to pander to, since women are willing to consume a lot of things aren't supposed to be made for them, plenty of women read shounen and seinen mangas for example. Come on now
