The carpets you can make in this game are sick
>>719814054Wait until you discover the UA mod.
lmao
>>719814763the eldar are israel?
>>719815060no, the eldar are actually the good guys
>>719814561>the UA modDamn, I can bomb Donbass children even in the grim darkness of 40k?!
>>719815060>>719815256how are they the good guysdid the israelis create a demon which is now one of the biggest threats to the world including them through their own degeneracy?
>>719814054Miss games doing blood and corpses and debris. I get it its more child friendly and better for performance, not like modern devs know shit about optimizing.
>>719815438yes
>>719815438the israelis would've done so deliberately and not just by accident
>>719815438arent the regular eldar the ones that didnt?
>>719814054where are your units' healthbars?
>>719816603they weren't on by default in definitive ed but I decided to just keep em off anyways because it looks more cinematic, there's no reason to metagame the campaign that hard desu
>>719816090actually the regular eldar are the the dark eldar, the craftworld eldar were were monastic self deprivation eldar that were by far the minority of their race
>>719816643really, even in the unit selection menu at the bottom?
>>719816792Defintiive edition is a meme that shouldn't exist and created a mountain of new bugs in a game that was remarkably bug free at the time (because post-launch patches weren't a thing so they made sure to fix as much as possible)
>>719816792oh idk whats up with that usually it works
>>719816995OH MY GOD THE IGNORANCE LOL
>>719815060Dark Eldar maybe. Jews worship demons on purpose though.
What is it about DoW1 that is so good? What's the secret sauce?
>>719818039lost genre of rts not trying to be starcraft/dota
>>719816090No. The “regular” Eldar saw the degeneracy that had overtaken their race and tried to do the opposite of that, but they were a tiny minority. Most Eldar by the time of Slaanesh’s birth were Dark Eldar. It’s just that anyone that wasn’t on Commorragh was instantly consumed.
>>719816090>>719818609regular eldar are basically like the amish/sect niggas of their race? Hm
>>719814763saving this screenshot it looks cool
>>719818039a lot of different systems working together under the hood that are individually simple but intuitive to play around combined with good, flavorful voice acting to help set the tonesomething as simple as a ranged unit being forced to fight ineffectively in hand to hand when its engaged in melee instead of being able to just keep on shooting was relatively novel in vidya at the time and is honestly still not very common since blizzardshit doesn't do it so 95% of post 2008 rts games dont do itstrategic points provided a very natural way of combining map control with power projection and resource generation and something as simple as building listening posts to reinforce the point goes a long way to providing a little more push and pull to make it so you need to actually invest time in taking or defending a point, which hilariously is one of the main problems with DoW2the game is far from perfect but its generally a well thought out translation of the tabletop's concepts to a vidya format that isn't a 1:1 turn based hex game but most importantly >>719818217
>>719818907sure m8 im honored
>>719815438>did the israelis create a demon which is now one of the biggest threats to the world including them through their own degeneracy?Yes
I'm probably gonna get hate for this but feel like the gameplay side hasnt really aged well. It feels like 90% matches have just been turtling until you can deploy one or two huge murderblobs to wipe the map. Stuff like unit abilities and transports never felt particularly necessary. The charm carries it though. Ideally for me DOW4 will be dow2 gameplay with dow1 basebuilding and army sizes, however it seems like 4 is going to have even larger armies which is probably just going to result in even more uncoordinated murderblobs.
Did they fix the performance?
>>719815374you can kill ork boyz in the base game, you don't need a mod
>>719823271No
>>719823214that sounds like a map size issue. turtling is cool to defend your main tech structures, but would ideally also have plenty of poorly or not at all defended economic points of interest.the low player count maps are a completely different game than the big maps.
>>719824247im just talking about my experience in the campaign, especially stronghold missions
>>719818039The voice acting
>>719815374>>719823821kekd
>>719818039>>719824523the VA is a big part, just the grandiosity of it, it feels sovlful, analogue and badass, DoW 3 feels sterile though I haven't actually played it just seen gameplay and such, unless i get bored plan to go through all DoW games
>>719826741btw sturnn definitely likes eldar a little too much for an imperial officer
>>719826808if they werent all fighting for their lives and or souls they would have the time to make friends.
