    GalCiv2 is one of my favourite games of all time. GalCiv3 made me so angry, FRICK Brad Wardell. They removed everything from GC2 and sold some of it back as DLC.

      3 was a huge let down, stardock's rep took a huge hit from the star control fiasco and there was virtually no marketing.

      2 is a serious contender for best in genre. ignore all other games from the developer.

    Gal Civ 3 was literally just two with pretty graphics, and half the game split off into DLC. So I stopped caring about any new games they put out.

    Never played much GalCiv2, just a few hours. Did the same with 3 and literally couldn't tell the difference. So if that is any indication, I don't see why anyone would find 4 worth buying.

    That, and like others here I hadn't heard 4 had come out either.

    I enjoyed Distant Worlds and that was extremely similar in GalCiv. Maybe that's why I never got much into the latter. Might be the same for others. Just not distinct enough of a game from competitors and predecessors alike.

    Just because Stardock took awhile and 2 expansions too make GC3 fun too play. So everyone learned too atleast wait for GC4 too be completed. A lot of people simply wont buy games that you know are waiting for DLCs / expansions too be good games.

                Damn i had forgotten about her. What a bizzare case. I've wondered if the data she provided in the facial abuse video is real:
                >she claims she lost her virginity at the age of 14
                >she claims she has since then fricked around 3 guys/month
                >video is filmed 5 days after she turns 18
                >if we assume she lost her virginity halfway through her 14th year, and has consistently fricked ~3guys/month, this means by the time the video is filmed she has had a body count of approx. 128
                that's impressive.

                Realistically what do you even do if you're the father and some Ganker anon sends you a video of your daughter choking on wiener while vomiting and being instructed to not let the dick head out of her mouth at all costs, all while receiving a few not-so-light slaps for good measure?
                Because thats EXACTLY what happened to her father. The only viable course of action i see is murder-suicide

                wow. Once I saw the pic on the left I knew I saw one of her videos. The dopey expression was a total dead giveaway for me. This honestly is a rare case though. Most israeli or half israeli women always have israeli mothers. I can't recall a time when a half-israeli woman whose father was israeli did stuff like this. He must have had some super beta dna to pass on the spirit of the israeliteess through his sperm.

    You thought wrong. I love GalCiv 2 but the entire series is janky as frick and tends to be the kind of 4X I play a frickload of then forget of for a year or two. Also GCIII was incomplete for like 5 years, so I'm not touching this shit even to pirate it for awhile.

              They're nice visual novels with terrible writing, so, above average for a visual novel, and a lovely way to promote modern propaganda about women being the best advisors and leaders in the early modern period, or that Aholf Schmitler and his goons never had that one flag nor did a genocide, or that multiculturalism is assimilation such that literally everyone becomes white and the Victorian era involved sustainable mass immigration similar to modernity.
              My favourite part was when Native Americans and Aboriginals became playable and competitive, and for the longest time had broken balancing that wasn't strategy, it was just a mess.

                the police unit that arrested tate is totally funded by the US government as part of a bizarre scheme to invent "sex trafficking" victims out of thin air
                this is actually, factually true, but the media refuses to mention it and preferred to fixate on some inane bullshit about a pizza box and a parental abuse victim swede with fetal alcohol syndrome

                I do not agree with Tate on many things, but the stuff he says about women and how men should focus on their careers is all true.
                He promotes promiscuity and produces pornography. I support him against the charges, but no one should be defending those specific things.
                He also promotes a very base and almost cartoonish worship of materialism. However, this appears to be tongue in cheek for comedic effect. He obviously rents most or all of those supercars he takes pictures with.
                That being said, people just outright denouncing him and even celebrating these charges against him are very misguided. Pretending that women who signed up to be camgirls are somehow victims is just dumb. There are likely millions of women on OnlyFans voluntarily.
                Producing porn is a dream job for women. They make a lot of money and can focus on sex, which is the only thing they understand.
                Pretending that women are innocent angels corrupted by bad men is funny because it is so silly, but it is also extremely harmful.
                If Romania had a strong government that was charging Tate for doing camgirls, then of course I would think differently. But that is not what is going on. They are charging him based on trumped-up sob stories, and the entire prosecution is political.
                I am never not going to stand by a political figure being persecuted by the state for their speech against the current world order. The fact that I disagree with some of the things he said is irrelevant.
                I don't like talk of "nuance," but it seems to me that anyone should be able to look at this rationally and say that though not everything Tate said/did was good, he's being persecuted because what he said that angered the system, and that is bad.
                You should pretty much never find yourself in a situation where you are siding with woke leftists. If you find yourself siding with them, you need to seriously analyze the situation, because literally everything they say is wrong.
