People who are wise know there are far worse things you can waste your time/life on than games.
And there's a difference between a Competent Man and a Competent Player.

Real time, RTwP, or Turn Based: that's not what determines what is a good game.
A Competent Player can play anything.

Yet a wise player will not.
Camel A wise player implies a wise person. You wouldn't understand.
Wise people don't play videogames. There is nothing wrong with RTwP too. :smug:

Proof of the particular does not imply proof of the universal. You nailed the proof of the particular though.

Get with the times grandpas, it's RTSRPG, not WTwP.
I prefer "tactical strategy" games.
Too bad all we have are these strategic tactics games.
You mean Baldur's Gate?
so far all i see is more and more disco furry clones.
bg only impact on industry was more bestiality and faggotry. zero impact on game systems.
actually, it was opposite - everyoone cried "we are just poor aaa studio with thousands of developers! we are not trained for this kind of violence! you can't expect another bg3 from us!"

Ratings should be for paid members only as they encourage lurking.


The Codex wastes all of its energy yelling and screaming at The Woke instead of becoming the change they wish to see in the world (Tyranicon, Prosper, et al...)

Action mechanics in RPGs are an improvement for the genre and an objective step forward.
Action RPGs, such as Codex GotY 2022 Elden Ring, are certainly a vast improvement over outdated, obsolete RTSRPGs. +M
Action RPGs are gimped action games where the programmers have purposefully put gay ass block on your character's actually intended capabilities. It's like playing DMC and being only able to jump like 50cm. What the fuck nigga.

:hmmm: Admittedly a bold position on the Codex to denigrate character progression and customization.

Character progression applies only to kids. When you are an adult you are supposed to be fully developed and at your peak potential.
