Just a small bit of the insanity of The Sims Medieval:

[Monk]

What're your thoughts on Sims: Medieval, Kekvit?

I'm of two minds on the subject and completely torn.

[Kekvit Irae]

What're your thoughts on Sims: Medieval, Kekvit?

I'm of two minds on the subject and completely torn.

Pros:
Having a real, clear goal is a refreshing change.
Only need to manage two needs. The rest are intigrated as optional activities to gain Focus.
Elves.
Each Hero actually feels like a unique profession, unlike Sims 3 which felt exactly the same no matter what career you had.
Replaying a kingdom with Sims that have different traits can lead to different experiences.
Whale Ate My Parents.
The ability to evolve a crippling Fatal Flaw into a Legendary Trait in specific quests.

Cons:
CAS is more (to coin a Bioware phrase) "streamlined." Accessories, make-up, and mix-and-match clothes are gone.
When you complete one kingdom, you've completed them all. Only the overall kingdom goal is different.
Gluttany. AVOID THIS FLAW.
Daily Responsibilities gets to be a hassle when playing quests with more than one active Hero. ESPECIALLY if one (or both) of those Sims have the Diligent trait.


So while Sims Medieval is a very good game, it suffers from some glaring flaws. Never the less, I've been playing it constently since I bought it.

I agree with pretty much all of those, especially the one about daily responsibilities. When controlling one sim they're fun, a way to establish that you actually have things to do in your career. With two or more sims? God. Help you. Micro hell.

I was also disappointed that I couldn't figure out a way to play my sims without first being on a quest. I had to accept a quest then I could go to the town level, otherwise I was stuck at Kingdom. I don't know if there is a way, but it really hurt the experience. Sometimes I just wanna hang around town laughing at people in the Stocks.

Even Koreans have epic fail moments.

Just started a new game in Silent Hunter 4

First Fuso Battleship sunk of this career.
My porpoise sitting off to the side a few hours after the initial attack. Almost died to some destroyers but i got away.


An up close of the ship before the final blow, you can see the torpedo moving in.


The final blow has been struck and the Beast begins to sink. 4 Torpedoes it took, only cause a destroyer got in front of the 3rd one, it didnt survive long.

Even Koreans? Homefront's alternate reality notwithstanding, North Korea is probably the biggest epic fail in human history.

I had a half stack that just finished a battle. This was against 2 full French stacks one led by Napoleon himself. I lost my army but destroyed theirs in the process.

From M2TW:

When I saw this I was pretty shocked, I must say.




I have a feeling that this Pope is violent to make up for other things...

[gaelic cowboy]

@Hooahguy

Is that a mod of MTW2

Yea, its Stainless Steel 6.4.
Its really good.

[gaelic cowboy]

thanks must check it out sometime

[Hooahguy]

thanks must check it out sometime

You should. I just got my rear end handed to me by Denmark, France, the Papal States, Poland and a bunch of others when the Pope excommunicated me. My only ally was the house of Castille but they, of course, were of no help. I even purposely killed off my faction leader in the hopes that the Pope would reconcile with me, but it didnt work.
On the battlefield they are also pretty impressive, compared to what AI usually is.

So I just started a new campaign as England, Ill see how that goes.

[Veho Nex]

What the heck...

[Ibn-Khaldun]

Perhaps he got the M2TW trait "Secretly female"?

[Veho Nex]

Someone stopped in the perfect spot right when round ended.



Cpl. Sung and I tanking. We only died once and we took the whole left flank pretty much solo.


Just riding along and I guess I lost my head.
