Total War: Survival of the fittestI unironically would prefer a game about the bugs of Ra than about black-washed Bronze Age warhammer-heroes.Imagine playing with the genetics of your bugline to create the BUG MASTER RACE, also CA would make a lot of money with all the species DLCs.BULLDOG ANT SUPREMACY.
i dont want to play as antsssssss
>>1447622Ok mate, np, there are other million of bug species, choose the want to want, perhaps a sigmachad scorpio finding his way in life.
>>1447622Little reminder that Achillesbros, the Myrmidons, were ants.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrmidons
>>1447620WE WUZ BUGZ 'N' ZHIT!!!
>>1447620I've had unreasonable amount of fun playing Swarm Assault even if that was just some shovelware.Post more games about bugs.
Ant-tila
>>1447620>He doesn't know
>>1447768More likeWE WUZ BUGZ ROLLIN SHIT
>>1447776Cool name.>>1447796I know about it, but we need a 2023 version.>>1447882Kek.
>>1447620Who are you going to main bug bros?I'm going to main Order Odonata. Maybe Genus Toxorhynchites if the Mosquito DLC lives up to expectations.
>>1447934I'm going to enjoy the broken mid-game event
>>1447908>but we need a 2023 version.i don't see how making the ants gay helps anything
>>1447620Play empires of the undergrowth
>>1447940many locusttogetherstrong
>>1447946I get it.
>>1447949Not enough violence and blood.
we're all gonna make it one day bugchads
>>1447620Total war chose a literal dung beetle and a sub-Saharan negro to be the face of their new flagship title.
>>1447774Based that game was key. Fuck waspniggers though
>>1447620>>1447774>>1447796>>1447934>>1448196>>1448224BEHOLD!
>>1448247Glorious
>>1448247Masterpiece.>They are even in formations.
>>1448254>>1448258Gentlemen of culture.
>>1447620Total War: Poo Pusher
>>1447620they don't really have good ideas at CA. they need to keep making human vs human games because making animation skeletons for insects and animals is really hard :(. plus they need to be super serious with their games, none of them have the capacity to think up of a grand campaign involving different factions of bugs taking over someone's backyard, i don't think any of these even know what Army Men is so they wouldn't even be able to have fun with the idea of a miniature war.
>>1447620Why is 3/4 of the trailer of this game fucking bugs. I agree. This Bug Total War.
>>1447620Scarabs are not dung beetles
>>1448552And why is the other 1/4 a ball of shit?
Everyone would get mad at the fact total war isn't doing historical themes. But idrc what total warfags have to say lol
>>1449671It's a good historical time period it just has far more overlap with other more recent Total War titles being in the ancient period. Where a return to European medieval or post medieval historical setting would be refreshing again.
>>1448544>because making animation skeletons for insects and animals is really hardMe watching dragon/scorpio/sphinx animations of Warhammer, gifrel.
>>1447620unironically would enjoy a total war: insects as a super weird creative fantasy setting over whatever slop they'll put out next
Praying Mantis doomstack is completely broken. Game is honestly just boring once you get them because they steam-roll everything else.Waiting for the arachnid dlc to break the game. At least it might be a challenge
>>1449846>It's a good historical time periodNot really. Poor historical records + low unit variety (e.g. only Assyrians should have proper cavalry in this time period) + primitive weapons and armor intensifying the aforementioned low variety (your heavy infantry and cavalry can only be so heavy in an era before lamellar/scale). It is a much more appropriate era for a more peacetime-focused game than it is for Total War which is still ostensibly a wargame at its core. What's the point of a historical game where all the gaps are filled in with TW Troy-tier loosely myth-based fanfiction?
>>1450196Wait to see Total War: Caveman.
>>1447620Why do brainlets keep calling them bugs and insects as if they are arbitrary when dung beetles/scarabs are a huge part of symbiology in Egyptian culture and religion?
>>1450045>Me watching dragon/scorpio/sphinx animations of Warhammer, gifrel.Nobody tell him
>>1447620>black-washedhow the fuck is this black washed
>>1450344bold of you to assume fantasytrannies know anything about history
>>1447622>i dont want to play as antsssssss>sssssSnek snoot boooped this post. I would say we don't take kindly to your kind around here, but snek total war is acceptable.
>>1450346Ok now post the main guy that the trailer focused on
>>1450434theres nogs in the trailer, the main guy is noticeably more tan than them this isn't the same thing as cleopatra anon
>>1450458Cleopatra is a pointless comparison anyway since she wasn't Egyptian to begin with
>>1447620You joke, but as a kid I once fantasized about an insect RTS in the vein of aoe/empire earth after seeing shit like A Bug's Life and Antz. I think I even had a tech tree scrawled in some school notebook.
>>1450458>flared nostrils>protruding teeth>huge lipsyeah I'm sure it's just a coincidence and he's not actually supposed to look black. it's all a misunderstanding!
>>1450346>>1450458>>1450547We wuz Sunz uf Yakub-Azen-Rah un zit!!
>>1447620>ree
>>1450344I never even watched the trailer. I just like the idea of an insect total war game
>>1451793We need more gore/blood, tactics and RPG/emerging narrative.
>>1451793REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>1450259>no Gombe Total War yetVidya games suck.
>>1451793>See roman numerals>Immediately assume they are agesDamn you AoE!
>>1452734The world is not yet ready for monke warcrimes
>>1452734>>1455949When Total War: Emu Secession or Total War: Goat Revolution (250k goats vs Ecuador)?
