Yes, you did mention. And I acknowledged it.
And to your second point.
This whole discussion started as me defending YodaIamm who thinks pros criticism is unsufficient. I agree with this view, I think that amount of positive attitude expressed by pros is hugely disproportionate to the amount of...
A lot of unrelated things influence your game performance, especially at this high level. Stuff like real life stress, uncertainity, overworking, slight sign of ilnesses, breakup. Could be milions of reasons.
Seriously? I can show yout at least three videos from at least two top players praising new DLC's (at least one of them in early access) stating how exciting it is, how it is great news for every aoe2 fan and so on. If I gave an effort I could find much more. Can you find some decent video where...
Where I made statement they said nothing? You misinterpret my words. I have been critical mostly towards YOU and LowEloNobody for being critical against YodaIamm who merely expressed opinion that pros are being meek in their criticism. Which I whole heartedly agree with. In light of their...
As YodaIamm pointed out, my point is not as much about them being silent but rather that their "criticsm" is disproportionate to the seriousness of isses and the fact that many of these pro players have been complicit in hyping and promoting DE since its realease and many years later. Also...
That is true if by "impact" you understand views. But views on its own change nothing. It is also arguable, that making funny videos undermine seriousness of these issues, hence do not help at all.
I mentioned Survivalist, did not know about Viper discussion. I do not count youtube shorts or tweets as critique.
EDIT: This was the video I had in mind: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apKc3Q1xQyE
This is something I would call honest and direct criticism of current pathfinding issues.
Pro players use their channels to bring attention to game and themselves. Not the real issues such as pathfinding. Obviously, more players AoE has, better for pro players who live from tournaments. I have not seen any pro player making youtube video of pathfinding issue. Only one I saw was from...
No, I expect sarcastic comments such as yours on internet forum.
Or perhaps, just perhaps, not buying another DLC's unless issues are fixed (is one of the way). Or if someone is not willing to go that way, I personally would appreaciate a bit of honesty and less of fake hype everytime new DLC or...
Right. I can absolutely believe that they "mentioned" it. Apparently mentioning something is not enough. And by the way, pathfinding and other stuff was messed ever since realease, you can not revert it three years back and be done with it.
Not that I want to defend or attack anyone but not long time ago if someone complained on aoezone about bad pathing, balance and other questionable moves of developers, people defended them saying "Oh this aoezone, devs do not read aoezone. Go report to their official website.". Now people are...
Players in tournaments pick these "unique/innovative" maps precisely because they are gimmicky. They can prepare one or two strategies in private and execute them in tournament to oponent who might not have figred it out. You can not do that in Arabia. Everyone knows Arabia well. It is arguably...
It is hard to quantify really. There was a lot of knowledge among top players. A lot of knowledge that was not publicly available/known. I remember heated discussion once when Storm_Country massed aztec champions against cataphracts because he believed that it is simply much better than just...
We had this discussion in past when people in 2012, 2015 or 2018 thought that they are much more skilled compared to 2000's era players. I always thought that it is merely an impression. Times change, build orders and balance change, mechanical aspects of game change too but these are all stuff...
Lately I have been spending some time playing team games here and there and I gotta say this game never fails to disappoint me and piss me off. There is so much wrong with this "Definitive Edition" that I genuinely ask myself why do I even try enjoy it. I told myself to refrain from ever talking...
