>>498802169Anon when you arrest the fishman soothesayer you have to disable consumption of all needs, complex food, clothing, and service. There's a button in the top right where consumption control is available. If you do that, he won't be able to kill anyone. Fishman soothesayer is one of the easier forbidden events to do because you can essentially get no negative affect from it as long as you don't have those needs to begin with. But if you do, you'll just have to deal with a temporary resolve issue, but that shouldn't be a real problem for 5m

Death to the alien, and to the traitor.
>>498811218There are traitors in xcom?
>>498811941In X-Piratez you're aligned with the Mutant Alliance who generally represents earth's civilian populace (due to centuries of genetic manipulation from multiple parties, xeno-interbreeding, mutations from biological and radioactive WMDs, and good ol' genocide, what is and isn't "human" is a very fuzzy line) and acts as an insurrection against the Star Gods, who destroyed XCOM 600 years prior and has held earth in occupation ever sense. Traitors to the cause are Bad People and fuck things up for the ~500 million people left, so killing them is good cash.
>>498813424Oh, it's a mod, okay. Can't open up picture, so stuck with thumbnail.
You are a retard if you think EU4, VIC2 and HOI4 are not strategy gamesthey should be allowed here.t. XCOM2 guy

I just want Banished with slightly more depth, why is that so hard?
A new city building is out and no one tells me?/civ4xg/ is truly dead.https://store.steampowered.com/app/2603020/Citadelum/
>>498879867it looks like shit is probably why
>>498879867Looks like ass.
That translation is ass. I have a take a lot of liberties to make it appear ok.
>>498879867Looks fine but nothing beats Ceasar 3 and Pharaoh.
>>498882114Holy shit, you actually did it.Welp, I'm off to gen some Kumo then.
>>498780218Okay, I gave up on the alien speak in that one, so they just speak in an even more alien language to hide the fact it's all gibberish.Also, no fucking clue what the last line is.
>>498780428I give up. The translation for the last page is just too mangled, I can't tell what's an actual name, what's just badly translated, or who's saying what.
>>498780428All I got about this is that the tiger swimsuit girl represents an Horatio'd earthling with 80% of her genes changed. Hence the legs. And the Federation crushes them, but I'm not sure why, if it's just out of anger, or to rebel against the Awakened Empire, or because there's that war between two empires.
>>498884148You still did great work.And as promised, here's my a.i slop.
>>498884590I tried, but I'm uneasy editing the text I'm given.Thanks, the Kumoko is just right.
>>498884673It's ok, I felt like I was taking sanity damage while tossing those korean lines to translator and getting some weird shit in return.
>>498884815Yeah, we need an actual Korean.
>>498884865Could we poach one off of Starcraft general?
>>498884950You can try. I saved the .clip files, so I can reedit them easily if you get a better translation.
>>498884995I forgot, Starcraft general has been dead for ages.
>>498890668Then we do be outta luck lmao
Since Long War was too dumb for me and I really can't get into XCOM 2s gorrila warfare shtick I'm back to playing EW, this time on classic.Gonna start in Asia and try going for SHIVs since I didn't use them at all in my last run.Well, and also on English because I already changed the language for LW and now I might as well stick with it and see how thicks Valens accent is gonna be
>>498892492Good luck lmao.
>>498892715The first few abductions were easy but the first shot down UFO went a bit sidewaysHopefully it won't be that long until I can replace these meatbags with robochads

Anyone play Farthest Frontier? I’m a huge fan of Banished w/ CC mod but I don’t hear people talk about FF much so I haven’t picked it up yet. I also have Manor Lords via family sharing but I haven’t played it yet, heard it’s a disappointiment.
>>498892492It’s okay to admit you got filtered by the XCOM 2 overworld screen. I will admit it’s a bit of a clusterfuck for beginners.
>next rookie promoted into my second sniperOh yeah, I know who's getting her limbs chopped off and put into a mechsuit
>FIFTEEN damageDamn, fusion bombs are GOOD.Why can't I have one in Boltgun? I'm stuck facing a Duke of Change AND a Great Unclean at the same time.
>strangle bot decloaks next to the entire team>all of them are in overwatch>all of them missIs this XCOM, baby?
>>498911964Welcome to XCOM.
>>498912474Yeah I just got my first council mission, and I learnt to fucking hate thin men. Low cover might as well not exists against these niggers and if you have everyone in high cover they just spit at youWhat a cancerous enemy
>>498914334Because they don't use plasma rifle, they use light plasma rifle. I think they give +10 to accuracy.Get as many of these as you can.
any short-ish games that go for like 20-30 minutes a pop?
>>498892492Man you really missed out on Long War's Newfoundland. Vanilla is bad, real bad if you're new, but totally manageable if you know what you're doing and prepare. Long War's will pull your testicles out through your dickhole and speedbag 'em.
>First terror mission>Still only 4 man squads>Barely squeezed in two laser rifles>no assault because the starter one died and my rookies refuse to become assaults>shivs not operational yetThis is gonna suck
This could've gone a lot worse, I supposeAlso had civies just randomly drop dead right before my eyes. Nothing shot at them, they just dropped dead at the end of the turn.
>>498897109>Deadlock 2.Anon you madman Deadlock 2 is shit compared to Deadlock 1. Just like Missionforce Cyberstorm 2 is shit compared to Missionforce Cyberstorm 1, which there's no connection between those games other than past-me being disappointed in picking up two sequels to games he played the absolute fuck out of and then they felt like rushed garbage. At this point I don't even know how true it is, it's been so long since I tried either sequel maybe they ARE better, but it is in my nature to rant about them. In fact it's been so long since I played Deadlock 1 I'm almost afraid to pull a MoO2 on it and ruin my memories by trying it again nowAlthough you rolled Gladius and that's a cool game. Take this song that was hidden in the audio of the Deadlock 1 CDhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j19mg4ci69A
>>498926020Maybe. But I like Deadlock 2 after finding it on an abandonware game. I just regret being unable to take screenshots and having to use the same every time.
>XComWhat about Xenonauts? Any good?
>>498926516Good question. I remember everyone being over it when it came out, then the hype died almost instantly.
Is this game any good? \is it replayable or is it one of those ony city and done type of games
>>498926020Oh good lord that song is a fucking blast. Getting flashbacks to the Secret Bonus Room from Skullmonkeys.
>>498926020>DeadlockI hate that there are so few games about space colonization and even less of them are worth anything..Such a great topic for a game and no one touches it...
Well you can't see it, but the Tarth defenses crumbled, and my fusion tanks are GLORIOUSLY slaughtering street militias.
>>498926382Might be worth pirating a GoG copy, did some quick searching and found someone who was having the same/similar issue and supposedly the GoG copy worked fine with screenshots. I know there was a clusterfuck with the first game on Steam because the Steam release was apparently just some half-assed dumping all the files out which just made it run as the demo, while the GoG installer works properly. Sounds like the Steam copy of Deadlock 2 may be similar to the abandonware site's in that it runs but has issues with screenshots but (Supposedly) the GoG one doesn't
>>498934452>Steam release was apparently just some half-assed dumping all the files outSounds like everything Steam.But not like GoG is perfect either, I still can't play SEVEN KINGDOMS 2 and I'm still sulky about it.
Was i hallucinating or was there some remade newer version of Knights and Merchants posted here recently?
>>498926784I got a couple hundred hours in Banished with CC mod and I just picked up Farthest Frontier. Seems like they were trying to make Banished+ and incorporate combat and some Anno elements. Only played a couple hours so far but I’m not really sure if it’s worth $20 if I can just play more Banished.
>>498934981Maybe you saw Diplomacy is not an option and it looked similar?
>>498938293Absolutely not.
I don't get it, all my diplomats are giving maluses to the relations despite the text indicating otherwise.
>>498943067What the hell?
Should I buy CIV 7 or EU4?
>>498943525>Yeah he's a great guy, love 'im. Helpful, reliable, just all-round a swell dude really. Never even roofied anyone either.
>>498943525Yeah, according from what I've read it might be due to some event i got (I do remember an event giving -x "diplomatic units" that I had no idea what that was).
>>498944250Neither. First one is going to suck. Second one is not our turf.
Why does everyone hate Humankind 2?
>>498918802XPiratez
>>498934621Oddly enough that appears to be one that does run on Steam. Took a quick glance at the discussion for it and saw someone having issues and running it in Windows 7 compatibility mode straightened it out, so it may be worth trying on your copy if you haven't already>>498949207I still haven't really played Humankind 1. Despite being fond of Amplitude and the Endless games and despite owning it I just haven't felt like it yet. To be fair I'm down on a lot of 4x in general, but eh
>>498953747Dammit. Will do.
HAK HAK HAK

>buy Gates of Hell: Ostfront because Men of War 2 is a mess and I've played Assault Squad 2 to death>It's basically a carbon copy of AS2 except better in almost every way besides lack of factions and lack of gibsAmazing. Shame the DLC is so outrageously expensive.
>>498971126The DLC? Like, singular?
>>498971396All of it is expensive. The base game is currently cheaper than any of the DLC.
>>498971664Is it published by Paradox?
>>498767412Why do you have beef with /gsg/ they are a peaceful general
>>498971921I hate game screenshot general. Thread turns into 3 people having a let's play at once.
>>498972428Yeah, what a pain to post in it.
>>498972428Yup just looked at the posts and it's all low effort slop
>watch Mandalore's review of Empire Earth>"it covers all of mankind history, but you're better off playing games focused on these eras"Okay./civ4xg/, what are some good Romans/Japanese Medieval and WWII RTS?
>>498976089Ignore semantics about RTS or RTT. The below are good strat games.>RomeRome 1 and 2 Total War.>JapanShogun 2 Total War>MedievalAoE2, Medieval 2 Total War.>WW2Men of War Assault Squad 2, Gates of Hell, Company of Heroes 1 and 2.As an aside, Rise of Nations is much better than Empire Earth. A real shame we never got Rise of Nations 2.
Okay /civ4xg/, has anyone used GOG? is it worth buying games there? CIV 4 is there and I want to buy it
>>498976405I remember trying Rise of Nations, and absolutely hating it. I remember hitting the ressource cap constantly, and the AI just putting waypoints on my army and constantly training units.And also, any game for Rome or Japan that aren't Total War? I remember Banished having Japanese buildings, maybe something like that?>>498976503Usually, yes. EXCEPT for Seven Kingdoms 2.But GoG offers you the choice between GoG Galaxy, who is its own client, and just downloading a setup, so it's handy.
>>498976567>Usually, yes. EXCEPT for Seven Kingdoms 2.>But GoG offers you the choice between GoG Galaxy, who is its own client, and just downloading a setup, so it's handy.Hmm, is there any benefit over Steam? it doesnt seem to be very popular as most game forums there on GOG are pretty abandoned
>>498976689>Hmm, is there any benefit over Steam?Pros :- games are (usually) fixed to actually work, instead of just being dumped,- can use GoG Galaxy or can just download the setups to install on another computer,- your money goes to Poles,Cons:- catalog is fairly laughable, mostly focused on old games and indies.
>>498976804>- your money goes to Poles,lol
>>498977117What's better? Poles, or Gabe Newell's arteries?
>>498977141>What's better? Poles, or Gabe Newell's arteries?To be honest I am really scared of what will happen to my steam games if Gabe retires or expires
>>498977415Same.
>>498976503DRM-free downloads alone make it worth it, in my opinion. If you don't actually care about that, however, I don't know.You have to keep on your mind that Steam is always right over there. A digital download service on PC has to have something special that makes it stand out when Steam is already a thing. For GOG, that's DRM-free downloads. Once you download an installer, it basically can't be taken away from you as long as you don't fuck something up.
>>498977415>Steam depends entirely on the goodwill of Gaben's successorGrim.
>>498977415>>498978212His son will inherit everything, he's pretty much Gaben 2.0 already minus the fat. Or rather he is perfectly 2.0 since Gaben himself lost a lot of weight.
