>>12595832The point and click?
>>12595809I like that movie.
>>12595961the set and production design were insane. the dialogue was absolute fucking trash though. talking like they're in a play written by some 19th century playwright
>>12595809
>>12595809Sometimes this game pops in my mind, I never finished it (legit without cheats), I played at a time when all my games came in the game magazine and many of those game I always played them because I didn't have any better and because I bought them. Maybe I'll relay this game I saw it on steam and maybe it's not a bad RPG
>>12595809drakan: order of the flame
>>12596056also this one
>>12595809Man of War II
>>12596059I remember this one I had a Demo game with it and I replayed that demo a fucking lot and it wasn't even a special game it was just ormal I was jsut fun of Lego and playmobil at the time
>>12595809The movie is equally awful... and fucking LONG.
>>12595973>talking like they're in a play written by some 19th century playwrightRead any letter written during the civil war.
>>12596108the gettysburg movie is much much believable on the dialogue front. doesn't make sense what changed since it's basically the same people that made/wrote both films
>>12596080the full game was actually rly fun, in general, nvm for some literal who licensed gamehilarious VAing. rly big world too with a ton of reactivity to its time travel mechanici remember i found a glitch where if you tabbed out of the game while jumping, then tabbed back in, you could get this super long jump that could sometimes clip through walls or OoBs
>>12596139This is the way jackson wrote.https://jessicajamesbooks.com/civil-war-love-letters-from-stonewall-jackson/Considering gods and generals is basically the stonewall jackson movie, the dialogue they gave him makes sense.
Played this at my mom's office on take your kid to work day. I think it was included in a Verbatim Sampler or something.It was pretty fun.
>>12596162Man what I wouldn’t give for a qt southern belle gf to write love letters like this to
>>12596175It was OK, but Challenge of the Ancient Empires is the absolute best of the Super Solvers series.I had the CD-ROM version of Ultimate Domain/Genesia. It got a 1/5 from CGW, but I had fun with it. Brutal learning curve, then it becomes piss-easy to dominate the AI. If you get balloons first, it's all over since you can carpet bomb all opponents out of the game.Also had fun with a demo of Army/Campaign, a little DOS shareware game by some random guy. Turn based strategy civil-war style game where you used dice rolls to determine how many spaces you could move.
>>12595809nigger are you watching me in my house?i just finished watching the extended edition of this movie
the best way to enjoy the Stonewall Jackson’s Shenendoah Valley canpaign is picrel. Not Gods and Generals.
>>12596139Stonewall Jackson was dead before Getrysburg. General Jackson wanted to go on the offensive using the monentum of his crushing success in the Shenendoah Valley. Gen. Lee and Pres. Davis held him back. Andrew Jackson was an autistic genius when. A rags to glory story that should inapire us all
>>12595809I finished watching this film only last Sunday. Even if you put the controversies aside, it's a very bland film that doesn't improve on the experience of going to a re-enactment in person. There's not a single arc in its 5 hour plot, if T.J. Jackson's death was shown at the start of the film the non-contribution of his subplot to the story wouldn't be different in any way (even he argued it was the brigade that was called "Stonewall"). If your response to that is "ACTUALLY his subplot shows his private life and participation in the Civil War, it's more than a re-enactment" then you will have to answer to the controversies because, for example, the film completely leaves out the fact that he owned slaves (and was known to be a strict master.) His death is also boring, he just got shot by his own for no reason.Even Gettysburg has an arc - R.E. Lee is shown to be at the peak of his powers at the head of an invading army and proud of it, then he make mistakes and his man management lets him down, he gets angry at his subordinates, before recognising a military defeat on the field and asking his men for forgiveness. We know that after that battle he was on the backfoot for the rest of the war. That's an arc, it also wisely focuses the entire film on just one battle rather than force the viewer to watch a misleading depiction of Lee's private life. Also Martin Sheen played the role significantly better than wooden Duvall.Anyway I heard G&G the game also sucks.
>>12596361>t. Yankee Bitch
>>12596361you correctly described why the movie sucked. The main reason SC Gwynne wrote his books is because Shelby Foote and Jeff Shaara’s books are so fucking bland. SC Gwynne really captured the subject matter in his books. His books are just that much better.
>>12596462Southern born here. Visited every battlefield. Spent my 10 year wedding anniversary in Natchez and Vicksburg. Visit the Shenendoah Valley once every two years. The movie was not good. Yet I still watch it because it was the best one ever made.
>>12595809Monte
>>12596106Wir haben SWAT Drei zu Hause
>>12596507What's the best civil war movie in your opinion? The battle of the crater sequence in Cold Mountain was pretty neat
>>12596674Not that guy, but I always like Glory as a kid. The director even reused scenes from it to make The Last Samurai. Other than that, Outlaw Josey Wales and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly make pretty good use of the Civil War as a setting. Even though they're basically just Westerns. Cold Mountain's Crater Sequence is probably the best part of the movie. The rest of it is a pretty grim "O Brother Where Art Thou." Everything made after 2009 is Agit-Slop.I've also seen The Horse Soldiers and Major Dundee. I like that Major Dundee touches on the "Albion's Seed" theory that the Civil War is just a continuation of the English Civil War.
>>12596725Glory? damn you must be a nigger loving billy yank
>>12596791Fraid not. I liked that they portrayed how the North thought the regiment was a gimmick and refused to give them socks and or pay them full wages. The war in recent years has been re-branded into the 1800's version of Anti-Fa vs. the Nazis. It's to remind people that the North and South weren't that far apart on that issue. If it were made today, there would be a sassy girlboss telling Col. Shaw what to do. And the battle for Fort Wagner would've ended with Denzel's character saying Black Lives Matter before suicide bombing the fort.
>>12596481i want an empire of the summer moon book so fucking bad...it'd probably be the closest we'd get to a blood meridian
>>12595809I like that Russian made WWI RTS from 2002 even if it was a bit jank. Fuck, what was it called again?
Unironically.All my friends were too occupied with Diablo, Total Annihilation and Q2.
>>12595809Fantastic game, I highly recommend it. It's half rts half tower defense. It's abandonware so you can get it easily and it installs pretty much fine on a modern system.
>>12597690Damn I didn't know they made that. Is it good?
>>125961591942: The Pacific Air War was way better
>>12595809I remember not liking it back in the day. Didn't feel like a real Tycoon game but more puzzle game. I should give it a second chance. I have a bunch of other games from the tycoon genre like Oil Tycoon, Ski Resort Tycoon, Moon Tycoon to name a few.
Chaos continuum
>>12598203Never replayed it. But back in 1997-1998 I liked it very much.Also one of the last games (or the last one) in which Sid did lead-designing and coding.
>>12598208>1942: The Pacific Air War was way betterNow ya tell me
>>12597690I played the hell out of that.>>12598203For years, it was the best civil war game. American Civil War games are a relatively newer thing, there has been a resurgence of interest. Even then, the overwhelming majority of them are absolute shit. Gettsyburg! and Antietam! are still on list of best war games to this day. I would say they are still worth playing if you're a wargame fan or wannabe grognard.
>>12596175played this a shit ton
>>12599349>>12597690Are these RTSs?
>>12599362They are real-time, yes. There's no basebuilding, if that's a question.
inb4 troll. Nobody actually played this.
>>12599541Yeah, that's me. I've played every Civ and always thought Alpha Centauri sounded cool but I've never played it or even seen it in-game.
https://warosu.org/vr/image/4YUY1EhB8K7SOve8299bDAreally makes you think
>>12599602i want to post Battlezone (1998) but i checked the archives and doesn't seem that obscure here. i still think overall it's a very overlooked game. most people know of Battlezone from the original wireframe arcade game, but the 1998 game, despite having no subtitle, is not a remake and is very different to the original game.it's one of the earliest games i can remember playing where you could actually get in and out of vehicles (i think the first for me was Interstate '82, which might qualify for this thread as well). mix in RTS elements as well and this was a very unique game, at least as far as i knew at the time
>>12599541I've tried installing it a couple times in the past year but it shits the bed on my system too much.
>>12595809Oi oi oi lads
>>12595809I’ve dropped so many hours into this game it’s probably disgusting. I wish I could play just one multiplayer match just once in my life w someone of comparable skill.
>>12596725One of the wildest thing about the good the bad and the ugly is how sympathetic they make the South feel. Almost borderline disrespect the northern army in the next to final scene w the drunk commander but he’s just literally going insane over the situation. Top ten movie for me.
>>12596725>Civil War is just a continuation of the English Civil WarFor me is British Civil War (1776-1783)
>>12599741always makes me laugh when americans point out australia was made up of "criminials from england" when they themselves are literally also criminals from england, if not worse since they chose to be so
>>12599107Tell me the name of this game.Now pls, sir.
