Britons are Celts not British
Akshually they'd be the Angevin Empire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angevin_Empire But necromancy of a two year-old-thread aside, even many of the new civs have names that don't make sense (Italians, Dravidians, Malay, Hindustanis etc) so I think they're just going with broader / generalized...

How to Change username
I tried changing my name from my current one to Sobek_Cataphract before searching that name and seeing that Sobek is already a used name by a player in tournaments; I also forgot to put in a reason for the name change. Having such a similar name may make people think I'm him so I don't want that...- Jaydev

Has Frost Giant solved the RTS monetization problem with Stormgate? (aoe2 monetization)
Paid mods ended really well, for Bethesda that is. They were pushed back in their first try and they succeeded in the second try. Fallout 4 and Skyrim Speical Edition now have the ''Creator Club'' where players can buy user-created and Bethesda-vetted mods for credits bought with real money...- Jaydev

Has Frost Giant solved the RTS monetization problem with Stormgate? (aoe2 monetization)
Except most people besides ''please make more DLC'' drones would be happy with having a stable, fun and balanced game whose value won't expire when the next patch or DLC screws everything up.- Jaydev

Has Frost Giant solved the RTS monetization problem with Stormgate? (aoe2 monetization)
So much corporate money-speak is just more evidence that AoE2 as it once existed is dead. The game being sustainable shouldn't be a concern of the players. Its fun to discuss and all but they don't care about player feedback unless it touches their bottom line. Lets take the example of...- Jaydev

Toxic players list (Devs ban these people pls)
Oh the irony of people defending character assassination as free speech. In your ideal world, is free speech in the hands of a biased mega-corp that plays favorites for money over principles?- Jaydev

Indian Dynasties DLC Best Civ?
Gurjaras look anemic. No RAA, no Parthian tactics, no blast furnace, no battle elephant, their highest damaging unit is their 2HSwords with 12+2 attack and they have almost nothing to show for it. Their tankiest non-siege gold unit has 4 PA when fully upgraded while still costing 800G to...- Jaydev

Tracking Hera's progress on LOL (or lack of thereof)
There is a difference between people who want to be famous and people who just want to share their passion. ''Famous'' streamers a bit like wannabe celebrities and are people who stream every aspect of their lives and talk about personal stuff in (too much) detail. I'm sure you know the type...- Jaydev

Tracking Hera's progress on LOL (or lack of thereof)
Look at it in reverse, is it part of anyone's job to follow a streamer's stats in a game that he's playing on the side and gossip about his alleged lack of skill / improvement / luck? Its like being the paparazzi; what purpose does it serve?- Jaydev

Tracking Hera's progress on LOL (or lack of thereof)
You're going to give him anxiety or something, just let the guy enjoy his hiatus. Imagine everything you do being gone through with a fine-toothed comb by strangers on the internet. Imagine not being able to stop it because playing games online is your job. Imagine not being able to talk about...- Jaydev

AOE-II Who will win Nations Cup IV? (+150.000$ 4v4 RM tournament)
Don't be sad man, I'm here and plenty of others here know you post stuff lightheartedly or in jest. Earlier we could just post what we felt like and everyone, or most people here at least, would understand both the post and also what we felt like when we posted it, and take it in the right...- Jaydev

How I got banned on Twitch
I'm not saying you should do this but I've heard twitch mods can be bribed with feet pics. Seriously though, hope they reverse it soon. 2nd EDIT: you should try contacting them publicly on twitter, that may speed it up or at least bring it to their attention if its been put aside.- Jaydev

New Civ Trailer, What's Your Favourite Reveal? Feudal Camel?
All the elephant stuff means the game will always be in a state where at least 7 civs are either useless or overpowered. At this rate its better to call AoE2 a subscription service than a buy-and-play game.- Jaydev

New Civs Leaked
Wow the announcement came on a date this is New Year for many Indian states. I wonder how the elephant balance will be handled now since 8 civs now have elephants. From the TT it looks like the new civs will go through a lot of patching before reaching a final state of balance, especially since...- Jaydev

New Civs Leaked
Thanks! Some of the discussion on reddit seems to be analyzing whether this could be a fake and who would go to the trouble of creating such game-appropriate assets if it was. Validity aside, adding more elephants when they are still so shaky balance-wise seems like a recipe for messing up a...- Jaydev

What's the source for this? Hindustanis seem to list Ele Archers as their unique unit but display a pokey-boi instead next to their Imp Camel.- Jaydev

Do you consider AoE2 Pros as "Stars"?
I consider them to be great people because they display a high level of dedication, focus and strategic thinking. I never understood being starstruck but it would be great to meet your favorite players and talk about their game philosophy, life philosophy etc and maybe get a photo with them...- Jaydev
