But those same major events are the only way to squeeze out any challenge in the late game: without them, you just end up steam rolling everything.

From Reddit:

Eh, its not really broken: the side missions are easier because they need to be quick, while the main missions actually require a semblance of planning.

Why would anyone gamble their life on the purity of a random drug they found? That’s even dumber than talking about selling drugs on a public forum.

The Spy is way too slow, and there are far too many shooter angles for that to work.

Yuri Lowell is so popular they had to take him out of the polls; beyond that, it’s a list dominated by protagonists and jerks.

He’s 24, so he’s probably starting to feel the pressure that comes from loss of APM due to age: even in SC 2, players older than 25 start to drop in rank, and many ‘retire’ (a fair number still end up streaming or playing in online tournaments) as a result.

Dick size does actually get mentioned in the French fabliaux stories (basically, french poetry from the middle ages that’s overwhelmingly dirty): 

It IS called “Aliens the Ride”, so that’s probably deliberate.

That’s half true: the jump scares themselves are fairly stock, but they also aren’t unexpected as it’s theoretically possible to avoid all of them. There’s also a *lot* of genuine horror in the 8-bit parts and the story in general, so the series doesn’t deserve to be dismissed out of hand.

The tonal shift was bad, but what kills it is that the story itself is a horrible mess: story events happen with no connection to each other, character stories are completely unrelated to both each other and greater events, a weak country suddenly develops super weapons without the actual government noticing, the…

The game is literally about social outcasts crusading against society, so the game kinda goes out of its way to violate social norms.

To an Orc, betraying someone *is* a sign of friendship: it means they respect you and want to be like you.

Precisely because it isn’t new: this is already part of an extremely popular mod called Frostfall, which synergized itself with a camping mod (sadly forgot the name) that added in campfire/shelter building elements. Survival Mode doesn’t list itself as having those elements, so it’s outright inferior to the free…

There are several fairly strong reasons the two games feel so different (sorry for the essay):

Dawn of War 3 is so painfully average that it has no identity whatsoever: very little in the way of cover mechanics, the buildings barely have any reason to exist, and the campaign is boring mechanically AND plotwise.

The scythe did actually give rise to quite a few weapons, since the hook proved useful for grabbing people and cutting them all to hell.

The only logical reaction upon being granted that glorious figure: “This war is already won! NOTHING CAN STOP US NOW! HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!”

His face just screams, “I’m having an unpleasant realization...”

I had the exact same thought: Irresponsible Captain Tylor is one of maybe three anime I’ve been able to show damn near anyone (who otherwise dismiss anime entirely) and get them glued in an instant.
