jokes posted:Are you new to the TW community? The Pontus meme isn’t even an exaggeration This. Current WH3 complaint list (by no means comprehensive): - UI is "too red" - Race-specific ruins colonization art is gone and this is game-breaking somehow - The fog of war on the 2d map is ugly and this is game-breaking somehow. - 9th LL isn't established and the world is now doomed. Pontus meme is a meme for a reason.

Despite all their complaints in the past CA still just released normal-rear end spearmanii game after normal-rear end spearmanii game and we all gleefully played them. Total warhammer is so far and away above the other total war games, it’ll be a blast no matter how much people complain. Just make turn times even faster motherfuckers

Not for nothing, but I don't remember people throwing a fit when Relic created the Blood Ravens whole-cloth for DOW and they went on to became tabletop canon, so it really does sound like the complaints are from the TW side not the W one.

The relic games were a traditional RTS game for the most part with a general story in a tiny part of the setting. Total warhammer by contrast is essentially Warhammer Fantasy's swansong.

Gamers always forget the time before they were catered to. Dawn of War was an awesome game and omg WH40k IP and omg it's a good game. Now TWWH3 is clearly a rush job piece of poo poo even though it's already twice as big as launch TWWH2.  I can't believe I thought the griping was over

My god, you are exactly right. What is more warhammy then gluing random stuff from your bits box together to make your own character? Nothing.

This complaint seems extra dumb because part of the appeal of WF is that everythings so big so you can insert your own homebrew dudes into it. There's like 300 imperial cities and 5000 Dwarven holds and 10,000 ork tribes so you can come up with whatever cool colour scheme and backstory you want for when you paint your little toy soldiers.

"B-but I need lore on all 10,000 of those Ork tribes so I can lord it over the 12 year olds I crush down the games store!" Seriously, GW's always encouraged DIY lore and subfactions and army schemes and all those super minor 'colour scheme, name and a blurb' Space Marine chapters etc etc are literally there to provide a starter for players to basically adopt and make their own and yet so many nerds are so loving addicted to minutia that anything that isn't official lore (or even then, official lore that doesn't fit their meme-poisoned preconceptions) is basically haram.

All Gnoblars with piggy-back rider cavalry and a multitude of different dumb variants of Gnob.

It's insane that people would be mad at the build-a-bear daemon. From the start giving players the freedom to invent their own backstory and lore for their army, as well as painting them silly colours, has been the core of both Warhammer's. It's like showing up to a 40k tournament and being mad that someone painted their Space Marines as anything other than one of the canon chapters.

Well the tournament officials would get mad in that case  Believe the rule is if you're running a specific Space Marine faction/subfaction in general, you have to run them in the specific faction colours for readability purposes.

"I want other people to imagine for me, and I want to spend all my time exploring the intricate details of their ideas" is a core attribute of a certain kind of nerd and they will be forever at war with "I want to use other people's imagination as a jumping off point for my own." I am stupidly excited about DIY LL. I wonder just how far we can go.

Build-a-Lord is perfectly fine in campaign, but it really doesn't belong in MP and I suspect won't be present there. There might still be an Undivided faction in MP at launch with generic lords and possibly Be'lakor (similar to Sarthoreal being available in MP for WoC), but that's about it. In campaign it can be fun to take a step back from the normal options and just do your own thing since balance doesn't remotely matter, but balance is rather more important in MP - particularly since CA seems to be trying to capture interest there - and completely custom lords for a faction are never good for that. edit: Among more reasonable concerns regarding the UI change is that the colors they've chosen are actually really bad in terms of readability for certain forms of color blindness. Presumably CA has considered this and has some sort of accessibility option in the settings, but they've not exactly confirmed that.

I actually agree with that complaint, but that is since I had eye surgery dark background with white text royally fucks with me. Reading it for too long gives me a headache and if it's a thick text some massive bright afterimages from the text. The TWH3 aren't that bad but for example if I want to catch up on some lore on https://warhammerfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Dark_Elves I have to read it with breaks. Seeing them right next to each other like that, for me the TWH2 one is so much easier on my eyes. edit: Thread is moving fast, was responding to Sasgrillos post

I gotta say the CA should be ashamed of the rivets in the new UI, there's nothing in the Warhammer universe that would suggest rivets or screws are frequently used and this just destroys player immersion. What's next, a little tech priest that tells you about chaos spells in the FANTASY setting??

Pretty sure Blood Ravens didn't have that kind of response because that was 2006 and outside of perhaps NMA people hadn't realised that they could be caustic assholes without much being done about it.

Also while I like the WH2 map design a lot I've come around on the new one, I can see how it's better. Surprised there wasn't much of a fuss about that big a change, though.
