>>1883340Doom is still a good game and it will remain a good game regardless of how much artificial tedium modern games introduce.
>>1882986I’m out then, I only play games with navies
>>1883408Just invert the map colors and take over ocean countries
>eu4players think their game is somehow a shelf above 'risk games'
>>1883415it is thoever. and I'm not here to shill eu4, it's shite
i want to play some form of 3d rimworld to satiate my autism where i can simultaneusly see my colonists or characters or whatever get high mood or money or whatever numbers but not have some specific objective to fullfill beyond creating an ever more complex and aesthetically pleasing base with more and more and more detailed stuff like furniture and manufacturing and jobs and basically instead of seeing numbers rise see more and more i get off to the idea of people not living in a third world shithole like in real life here can i do this, i got tired of lag in rimworld, i would literally just learn to 3d model or make dioramas if i could
>>1876111Noble fates is the best one atm, ever since gnomoria died, keeper rl if you want to go around questing
>>1876111You can work for the city government
>>1876111there's a little demo called Metropolis 1998 that might be up your alley

Victoria 3 or Meiou and Taxes

>>1878834Shady Imperium

>>1881828Arigatou, Kanko Maru-chan!for me, it's getting your first copper-plated ship
>>1882167yeah and i didn't know that so i was building the good ships idk the name but the big ones and the kotetsus>>1882862i would literally never train copper ships because by the time i've decided to build a navy i just rush steel ships
I've been experimenting recently with 2 Kasuga 4 Kanrin fleets, ironclad of course and the speed of them works very well. I used to use Kankos, but they always seemed disappointingly slow.
Okay but what if you... actually want to fight the naval battles
>>1883255Naval battles in fots are really not good particularly against the ai. The kotetsu class uniquely has longer range which means it's necessary to bait out your enemy into taking the first volley. Cannons do so much damage in fots so setting up your broadside and launching it first basically means you've won and the fire rates are fast ontop of explosive shells setting fires.
I have already played all of the Kremlingames studio games and generally liked them (even though their mechanics are often obtuse and with weird translations because they are made by russians), I also tried ''Suzerain'' but I didn't really like it, felt too stripped down where the economic layer was pretty much non-existent
>>1876421>his extreme ideaslike what?Not imposing austerity while your country and union is in a fucking banking crisis?Years later and you can watch how key infrastructure gets cannibalised.
There used to be a multiplayer game on kongregate where you were a MP or something and the player base voted laws and stuff
>>1874074Your pic makes me remember the Guild 2
>>1874074I thought that was Vince McMahon LARPing as a venetian merchant for a second.
>>1874333What's the "gameplay" in that thing? You just create your nation and then what? There seems to be nothing to do
is it finally engooded now?
Tried it for a few minutes, feels really clunky.
Old thread hit bump limit. >>1756158What are some fun advanced infantry nations that aren't BOS or Enclave?
why tf do map game mods always fall for petty drama?
>>1876740autism
>>1876740Motivation to work on a retail product is for moneyMotivation to work on a mod of a retail product is for personal satisfactionWhy would you bother working on something that is for personal satisfaction, if it doesnt give you personal satisfaction, because it involves having to deal with someone that in your view is giving you a hard time?Its not just map game mods its mods in general for any game
>>1876740map games attract autistsmodding attracts autistswhen you mix autistic modders into an already autistic gake you get autism overload
BoS is really fun with submods. It's like playing as France in Kaiserreich with all the wars you have to manage.
Is this paraslop any good?
>>1881500there is a ck3 mod that is like the spiritual successor to this https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2253278582ck2 versionhttps://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=333442855
>>1881500It's okay.I downloaded it (for free) and played it once. couple hours of entertainment. it is very obviously just a barebones ck2 set in Japan though.
Just play the sengoku mod for CK2 (haven't played CK3)It's just way better and has more starting dates as wellSengoku was just a beta test for CK2 and a way to cash in on the hype from Shogun 2 TW
>>1882947is there anything besides 2h gameplay and call it a day? gog it for free on gog.com, might check out since it's been sitting there for like three years
>>1881500EU5 will be a better Sengoku
>game features battles and factions from Sumerian Bronze Age till Viking Age>timeline expands to 15th Century Europe if you play FoG 2 Medieval as well>that's 3500 years of pure ancient and medieval warfare kino>game features shitloads of historical battles and campaigns>pretty much any major faction is represented in the army lists>there's mods that adds asian factions as well, like indians, chinese and japanese to add to the mix>battles are chaotic and can go wrong instantly if you're not careful>AI is pretty smart and will use whatever trick it has to put pressure on your units>units look straight out of Osprey unit model booksI really hope the devs are working on Pre-Columbian Americas or Renaissance next
>>1878881Misconceptions that ancient/medieval warfare can be unpredictable and chaotic?
>>1878441the ai sucks at the game, play against people it's the entire point of the game you fucking mongoloids, its not meant to be a single player game.
>>1878992I wish I had friends to play autism strategy games with...
>>1878441I hope so too. The Field of Glory games and their precursors really have the tabletop feel nailed down.
>>1881292you dont need friends
You haven't been automating your formers, have you anon?
>>1873853I haven't done a single turn since this post, that's how much PTSD I got
I enjoy micromanaging.
>>1877827understandablemay Planet have mercy on thy wretched soul
I enjoy
Diedre was right
What do people here think about Age of Wonders 4?I played it recently and found it pretty fun, the race customization stuff was really engaging for me, as coming up with neat ideas for factions and their quirks and then playing them out worked pretty well.My only major criticism is probably the ultimately simplistic tech progression and the fact that barring the final tiers of magic tomes, you can basically unlock every magic tome if you play long enough. I feel that opposite element tomes/affinities ought to start blocking each other after signifigant enough comitment to a element.
Terraforming blasted hellhole is really satisfying. I think I will even choose that terraforming related trait for my next playthrough and base campaign around it.
>>1885166Yeah. If you want to get into multiplayer and don't have friends who are into AoW there are several Discords where you can find matches.https://discord.com/invite/age-of-wonders (official)https://discord.com/invite/S8rgKX7https://discord.com/invite/wXvfEsmdv9
>>1885253I love terraforming spells, but the terraforming society trait isn't that good IMO, since it wants you cover multiple terrain type instead of just changing everything into your ideal terrain.
Is this a good alternative for someone too ADHD and anti-social to git gud at dominions?
>>1885680Maybe? They're not really the same at all.AoW4 should offer a better singleplayer experience though.
It's been sitting in my steam library for a while now, finally decided to give it a go>dead game?Also, the AI sniped every single settlement spot on Mars because I sent the probe too late, and now I don't have any resources for ships.Am I fucked, or is this salvageable?
>>1881756>projectiles have different healthwell that would have been GREAT to know about
Yepp, it's gaming time
>>1881839brother your empty quiver events?the second i load a single nuke i get like 6 empty quivers in a year and my capitals keep blowing up

The game that filtered vstlets
I need the most meticulous, tedious, complex /vst/.
>>1873835It's just called Command: Modern Operations now
>>1877138You're not getting any adaptive self learning ai for your single player game because it requires a super computer to run. You might get a save state where the ai plays the same everytime but its still good enough to beat most players
>>1882364somebody has been asleep the past 5 years.
I’ve been playing this shit for a long time. We had Under Fire for the Apple IIgs when I was a kid. Played the fuck out of Panzer General. My dad brother and I would have axis and allies and sid meiers Gettysburg tournaments. I was an army officer and went to a military college known for over the top hazing… we played a lot of age of empires II back then. I’ve done the Gary Grigsby games, back to Steel Panthers thru Wite2. The best, most enjoyable experience I’ve had wargaming… ever… has been the… wait for it… Unit of Command series. Fucking criminally underrated. Operational wargame that requires operational planning? YepLogistics underpinning everything? YepAsshole AI that will ruin your shit if you make the slightest mistake? YepSimple yet robust mechanics that are easy to grasp but challenging to master? YepEvocative graphics/sound? YepUnity of Command does it all and does it all very well. The only criticism laid against it is that each battle generally only has one or two approaches. This is largely true - offensive directions are largely going to be dictated by the terrain and logistics. Does it model differences between KV1 and KV2? No, but nor should it. You’re commanding divisions of mixed armor formations. Your infantry divisions can have armor assets attached. Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>1882370wheres your ai then fuckwit
Any casual city/base-building games like Timberborn?Preferably with humans, and the ability to select and control units instead of having them be assigned to a workstation.No combat, just like in Timberborn.(what's the difference anyways between city-building and base-building games?)
>>1878012>Does it matter?Yes, you're gay
>>1878158Really interesting game, i wonder how feaseable a region base maps would work.
>>1882556forgot my pic.
>>1882561weird comparison, though the game already has districts, they were obligatory at first but now more like something to improve your logistics though with a big enough map you could have fully fledged cities
>>1875634dude.. drop the porn
Whats the best spell caster / spell or your favorite spell caster / spell that you have used in an RTS Game?I think the Defiler from BW is one of the best spell casters in RTS Games. Unable to take damage from most attacks with Dark Swarm. Reduce Health down to 1 with Plague. And can recover all that energy with Consume. Shit is broken.

>>1875955I can find nothing about this, did you dream it?
I like the WC3 shaman because his hood is really cool
