Eh, both the Civ and Settlers series was pretty good until and cluding their fourth iteration. It's with the fifth version when both wrecked themselves (Settlers V was a plain Age of Empires clone and I don't talk about Civ V ...) I do wish they had a remaster for The Settlers III (including the Amazon expansion). The singleplayer narration for that game was sassy as f*ck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WG fix your forum & 1 hour ago, lup3s said: Yes, or the Scrubs will revolt! I guess that's not the fault of stronk russian programming but of inserting too many ponies into the forum. Everybody knows, that a forum can only take a certain amount of ponyism before it's program starts to degrade. Even when they manage to get it working again, each further ponypost will be just another step to forum ponygeddon... I also had a strange game today. Played my Bismarck (for Yamamoto Missions) and ended as usual in a T10 battle. Spoiler So right at the start I declared on public chat: "T10 battle with Yamatos? Well, at least nobody will be bothered when I play like a female cat (only that I didn't used "cat" but another word of the same meaning...)" It was a domination game and I started on the right end of the map. So I slowly made my way forward past that cap, using islands staying out of sight as good as I could. After a couple minutes I could lauch some shots at a Mogami lurking at that side.. and evaded too direct contact with a Großfritz by keeping an island between us... In the end, when our team already had taken all three caps, I turned around the island I had used as cover and faced the rest of the full force of the enemy... The Großfritz, a Currywurst and a Minotaur were the closest to me. Minotaur had tried to surprise me with some torps, but only one did hit. Then Minotaur smoked up and started AP'ing my Bismarck. As we already were close to winning and just because I didn't give a flying eff about maybe getting sunk, I just went straight ahead at the smoke and fired my front guns "blindly" into the smoke to the spot the AP came from, getting rewarded by a citadel hit on the Minotaur... My secondaries started shooting at some DD 10 km to my right... and at a BB 8 km to my left.. and when I turned on the hydro the Minotaur had launched some more torps, missing me... it was still outside of hydro range and my Bismarck took an awfull shelling from all the ships ahead of me. I didn't get another hit on the Minotaur then... but soon the smoke evaporated and I had that little scumbag right in front of my in all it's glory. Revenge time! Didn't take too long to shove some AP into the Minotaur's flank and to sink it... And just as I tried to focus my sights on a Großfritz down to 10% HP in front of me the battlecounter reached 1000. Ended with about 60k damage done, 1 sinker and a place in the middle of my team. We had lost four ships... the enemy had about four left... and my Bismarck had survived, which I hadn't expected... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You would like us germans to use the german word Rechner for it instead. Sometimes we even do, but Rechner isn't the proper word for what a computer does. Rechner is a way more fitting word for an mechanical or electronical calculator, and for these the word is commonly (and properly) used. A Computer does not only calculate, but compute stuff. With calculating being the more basic process of getting sums and computing being the act of using complex formula to achieve a result. At least Rechner for PC is still more logical than the Finnish word tietokone, kone = machine and tieto = information/knowledge. PC has no knowledge of its own, it can do nothing before man tells it to count 0 and 1 in order. So our word for PC is even more stupid in that sense. 3 hours ago, Deckeru_Maiku said: Do you dislike them, too? Like what the **** honestly? I know you're not stupid, so I'll just assume that you want to try and bait me deeper with this "you hate this and that loan too? :))" nonsense. From start I was referring to special cases, i.e. officially changing native words that has been used for decades, into something totally foreign. Sorry if I didn't make it clear enough from the start, and as a non-germanic language native here, it's so easy to forget the linguistic relationship between EN/GER which makes it easier for those two to swap words together (as using pure english words in Finnish would sound so stupid). But still my point here/opinion stays that I find it sad if the nation-state that is supposed to preserve the native language of said native people, officially replaces a native word used for long time with something completely foreign. And that is what I dislike. And I have already explained it, but you still insist that I'd dislike every word that has some sort of loan roots. Like what the f*ck? 3 hours ago, Deckeru_Maiku said: Do you dislike them, too? If futanari refers to a hentai category, then we use word futanari as we have no native word for "japanese hermaphrodite p0rn". And that is fine, as we have never had native word for that. Lolicon falls into same gategory, we've never had a native word for that thing, so we use lolicon as well. And again, that's fine as that thing has always been known as lolicon here. (i.e. those words didn't replace existing words as there was no existing word for them before.) I don't really understand this baiting by twisting words and throwing bullsh*t claims. I never said I'd "hate" every loanword and refuse to use them, but if you want to insist thinking like that, feel free to do so. Auf Wiedersehen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Uhm... seems I'm totally on the loss here. How would a "nation-state" (had to check wikipedia for that, as I don't ever thought of Germany as being one... with Germany being full of people originating from all countries of Europe around it since the Medievial Age... and only being Germany for a bit more than 100 years and before that an assembly of many small different countries with different local dialects...) "officially replace" a word? Well, yes, that's what was supposed to happen with "Nase" and it didn't even work then... Also the concept of "native germans" is quite weird to me. We have Frisians, Bavarians, Suebes, Thuringians, Saxons and Nethersaxons and.. and... and... all living in Germany. Many of them have been invested with more than a drop of "foreign blood" over the centuries. If one would check, I bet theres a lot of roman blood in great parts of the southern germans. And - depending on the distance to the next neighbouring country - also dutch, belgium, danisch, swedish, polish, russian, french etc. etc. etc. blood. The "german language" - germanic - wasn't even a language spoken in all of germany for quite some time in history. All the different tribes had their own dialects, and some even have them now. When a frisian meets a bavarian and they both speak their regional dialects, it is as if they were from different countries... Add to that, that over the centuries all the time new words have been added into the german language, sometimes replacing older words, not by law, but because they weren't used any longer. So we have latin bits... since napoleonic times quite a bit french and since WW2 a lot of english injected into common german. Some of these "injected" words are then later replaced by a germanized version. Again, not by law, but by common usage. As I wrote already, only the french would be stupid enough to do this by law... Then there are the words, that get kinda re-injected into the german language. Like the "Hamburger". The word "Burger" isn't an english term associated with a beef patty. In fact, before the americans "invented" the Hamburger, there has been a "Hamburger Beefsteak" as a local dish in Hamburg (the city) for quite a while. Germans took that recipe for a steak made from chopped beef to america and the americans added ketchup, salad and a soggy bun to it and after WW2 re-imported it as a novelty to germany. So hamburger is more a german than an american word. AFAIK there is no "Record of Officially German Words" that keeps people from using words not being in that record by punishing them. We have the Duden, but that is only a dictionary... okay, it is used as vocabulary and grammatical base for official papers and stuff. But all the time it gets upgraded by including words that rose to common usage. So it's not the state changing the language - it's the public by using new or different words.
