    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    "Rule 34 Economy" as a parent tag to "Waifu Catalog" is viable, because WC grew directly out of that initial scene. I was there, as you might be able to guess. But several individual fics that were actually WC were only tagged as "R34 Economy" (or related) and not "Waifu Catalog" (which they...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    A lot of "r34 cyoa" "r34 economy" "economy cyoa" etc. from Q1 and Q2 2020 will need to be merged into "waifu catalog" but that does not apply to the entire tag. Those were the early days, when there just wasn't a generally-agreed-upon tag in use for WC.

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    Ideally, MGE would have two tags, one for fics that at least give lip service to the canon material's tone, and one for the grimdark western fanon. But even on QQ, even in the series's ideas thread which IIRC was created specifically to try to create some separation and cut down on this, the...

    (Partially) fixing the tag system

    "company fucks everyone" and its associates (inspired, passingly related, etc.) are not Waifu Catalog, despite its proponents' insistence that they're the only Waifu Catalog, and should not be merged into it. Don't forget House of the Dead, or (eventually, soon enough) Highschool of the Dragon.

    Is it just the Restoration of Erathia story arc, or does it have the Armageddon's Blade, Shadow of Death, and Chronicles arcs too? "RoE only" is why I never bothered with the Steam version of original HoMM3.

    Yeah, the US didn't become the naval power until... really WW2. The US Navy started to really come into its own during/shortly after WW1, but the Royal Navy was still on top at the time.

    Endfield has factory gameplay as well as the standard Genshin-WuWa style of action-adventure. That alone should make the materials grind much more tolerable.

    Video Games General

    It looks like they actually added new issues by overcompensating. The difficulty is very low, partially because of how all movement tech is available from the start (which also makes the game much shorter bc less backtracking), and the note-door equivalents weren't adjusted to account for the...

    I mean... that's actual war. But in the context of a videogame, yeah, it's bullshit.

    Dyson Sphere Program is third-person, but the map size is technically limited. (And the spherical nature of each planet means that space is an issue on the small scale.)

    Out of the entire series, I only played the first few hours of FC3. That sounds like an easy DR 4 or 5. Make a build for DR4 first on intensity 5 and then check how balanced it feels.

    Not planets but try Anno 1800? It's the most complicated entry in that series until 117 comes out. (I personally prefer 1404 and 2070.)

    When you're buying a regular Ishtar or Ereshkigal, what you're actually doing is placing a Rin in your shopping cart and applying the respective perk before purchase. Same thing for Muramasa or Jaguar Warrior or Sitonai or any other Pseudo-Servant. Space Ereshkigal and Space Ishtar are separate...
