The xp mechanic was there from the beginning and herdables in general are not a core mechanic, but rather a secondary one. Also the xp mechanic is not necessarily OP. I would overall rate it good to very strong depending on how many herdables are available. Probably OP in team games only.Cometk wrote:I think we need to enable Indian villagers to eat cows and remove the fact that their livestock generates XP.

Really getting so sick of this PC bullshit, man I'm so glad I don't live in NA. You guys really have issues.
Historical context matters. This change was made to native civilisations because they're almost never correctly represented, as opposed to the Europeans, in literally any kind of mass media content. It has taken Native Americans centuries to break just some of the stereotypes and misrepresentations that the "anthropologists" and racial theorists of the 19th century and earlier imposed on them, and they're still not fully free of it by any means. So yeah, this change might not be a big deal but I'll take it.
Also, it boils down to who is marginalised and who isn't. Europeans aren't marginalised. Native Americans are still some of the most marginalized people on earth. Really surprised that some of the best players at a historical game can have such deep ignorance of history and its present day consequences.
Also, yeah, America is a truly fucked up place when it comes to race, but get off your French high horse. Racism is extremely prevalent in France even today. I never feel unsafe for a minute in New York because of the color of my skin, but a semester in Paris was filled with horrific incidents. Not to mention you guys went headlong into this whole colonialism bullshit back in the day.

Re: Aoe3 DE Gameplay Interview
European settlers shouldn't be able to mine from plantations.
They enslaved black people so that they would work in plantations for them, and this historical accuracy is offensive for the black community.
I hope DE will fix that and remove plantations from Euro civs.
If you disagree you're racist.

Re: Aoe3 DE Gameplay Interview
I wasn't arguing, I just can't believe I really got called a racist for that shit... Do you really also think not caring about these historical inaccuracies makes me a racist?

While we're on it, using the word "rape" should be totally fine. Every word can be offensive to someone, but we can't just stop using them. I'm not gonna let people dictate which word I can or can't use just because it might offend some person I don't even know. It's just words, and I'm not purposefully using them to hurt people. I'm sorry if it does hurt anyone, but I won't take care of the whole world's sensitivities cause it's impossible.
Everything is misrepresented in this game, seriously? It's just that NA feels guilty cause their "history" is built on the massacre of natives. I really can't see how not having iro/sioux mine gold will remotely help in any case haha, this is just hypocrisy.

Caring about that stuff IS the actual racism.

I'll add that people calling everyone and their mom a racist for no reason are actually helping the true racists. Cause these guys will be able to use it as an argument, they'll say "PC people pull the racist card whenever they disagree with you". Really sad to hand to actual racist people some real arguments like that.
It's the same as these feminists who claim that if you're a man you must be sexist, or whatever bullshit. These are helping the actual sexist people, cause they make feminists look like fools.

1. I can argue with you on everything else, but honestly how dare you think "I'Il rape you" is a funny thing to say to someone. It says a lot about you as a person.
2. NA feels guilty. Yes. I agree with you. My point is that you should feel guilty too. Where do you think all the splendour of Paris came from? How many natives in Africa and Asia died for it? Don't try to absolve your own history. Western Europeans everywhere were the same when it came to massacre and plunder. And lmao, you guys were there brutalising natives in North America too.
3. Im glad you know about the racism in your own country. That was entirely my fault for misunderstanding what you said. Ill concede that.
Re: Aoe3 DE Gameplay Interview
I am pretty excited for the change, adds something new for me and I have always like the historical context of the game.
Then again if it changes the balance I can see why the top guys wouldn't like it too much.

If you disagree you're racist.
Prior to about 1619 the colonist did the work themselves, largely with the help of indentured servants. That had to work off their debt.
then 2 cases began the rise of actual slavery. (to my knowledge)
One was when 3 indentured servants tried to escape 2 were white and 1 was African. The 2 white ones punishment was to double their service for another 4 years. The African one was ruled to serve indefinitely.
Another case was a half African man, who had an indentured servant (full African). He served his term and found a job. but the master then sued somehow and won in court that ruled he could have a slave of his own race. He soon had 68 slaves and became the 3rd richest man in the colonies. It became so profitable laws eventually changed to let him sell some of his slaves to others and that was the start of it. Then the economies were so locked into the prices to make selling their tobacco and other products they had to use it.

Funny? I never said it is. All I'm saying is it's just a word I'm using, like I could use another. I could use "molest", "annihilate", "destroy", "fuck you up" instead, for example. Are these offensive too? Maybe to some people, idk. I'm not going to change my way of speaking because it may offend a person, like I said it's not even possible.

Re: Aoe3 DE Gameplay Interview
Well I don't see problem if the people working on the plantations are black. Ofc it probably doesn't make sense for all the people working on the plantations to be black though. Slavery is generally depicted faulty in the media today. Because people don't seem to fully understand it or are blinded by the victory mentality of the nothern states. Just take the movie amistad for example. It is full of historical inaccuracies concerning slavery. It doesn't make sense for a slave owner to treat their slaves especially bad. They even vaccinated the slaves and gave them more than enough food. On the amistad they had too much food.[Armag] diarouga wrote:European settlers shouldn't be able to mine from plantations.

I mean, sure, I can't stop you. However, you've always come off as a smart dude and I hope you can see how using that kind of language so flippantly normalises and trivialises something that shouldn't be normalised. Its like the N word. Both words signify oppression, bodily ownership of another, abuse etc.

I said what I said because you were making the argument that NA people react to everything because they feel guilty for the fact that their country is built on oppression. I was just reminding you that yours is too, and that you should perhaps channel your own guilt into a similar reaction, rather than trying to criticize everything as "PC bullshit" etc.
I have nothing against you. I love your streams and I've learned a lot as a player from you. The rape thing always bothered me a ton; perhaps I should have PMd you privately about that, but now seemed as good a time as any. I just hope you can see how accurate representation might be more important than 'balance' to some. DE developers worked with tribal consultants, who clearly said this was a change that needed to be made. People should at least have the right to ask to be represented accurately.
