Then don't, let's talk about the game.

>>16193442

Wow, did you literally admit that we don't even talk about vidya here?

Played this for about 4 hours, felt kind of shallow.

Combat is terrible, progression is tied to arbitrary tasks like build 5 of this, make 100 breads etcetera.

Wouldn't recommend.

>>16193449

That's a shame to hear.

>>16193447

Go back to 4chan.

Dawn of Man was the original working title for Age of Empires 1. I wish the game was more like that - AoE I somehow gives me that weird itch that most other games won't scratch.

Might be the soundtrack, coming to think of it.

>>16193432

Heard about this months ago, might as well try it. And OP, you can just post A06FF7C6CC5C7A8BD0D4A83018D1A9BDFB8A02A4 for the hash, copying everything is an eyesore.

Does it work in Wine?

>>16193432

it is fun. I wish I could force breeding. my old man Khahahahahda deserves to make sweet love to khanananandera.

Pass.

is it just another bad banished clone?

>>16193853

Only beta males are afraid of strong women.

>>16195033

Nobody is "afraid," just sick of this stupid cliche that has been pushed because of SJW politics.

>>16195060

I haven't seen any niggers, if that's what you mean.

>>16195033

>>16195033

Ironic considering only beta males are into strong women

Also

>IGG-games

Gonna pass till there's a non-aids version

so what is grain used for besides bread? Im on the third tech tier and I'm producing tons of grain (mostly for straw) and all I can do with it is trade it since baking is tier 5.

<we dont gonna talk about shit games

<we

>implying

From my perspective that's mostly what you talk about.

>>16195050

>It's inconceivable that in a hunter/gatherer society a woman could ever have participated in hucking spears at wild game

>IT'S TEH SJW AGENDA!!!

You're funny.

>>16197031

I mean it is inconceivable

>>16195033

Why do you commie faggots always try to conflate disgust with fear? Nobody is afraid of "strong women" or homos or trannies. Normal people are simply disgusted by them, because they are disgusting.

>>16197031

Yes, it is inconceivable. There's a reason it never happened anywhere at any time.

>>16197031

Except it never happened you retard and to pretend it did is just you being a flaming beta cuck. Women didn't fight in battles nor did they go hunting with the men

>>16197338

Magnet links are a tool to confirm that you're not a shill.

>>16197031

>t. someone who played Far Cry Primal

>>16197156

>it never happened anywhere at any time

>We have documented evidence of tens of thousands of years of humans and proto-humans, and never once did a woman ever do any hunting of any kind not even a mouse!

I mean, you could have made the claim that it was RARE, but this is just nonsense. You're being fucking retarded.

Can someone please upload the patch?

>>16197338

Wrong, safety in numbers. If 10 guys pirated, those 10 would get locked up in an instant to be used as a propaganda tool about how "We'll catch all you evil pirates". It's because of the fact that millions of people pirate that we are able to get away with it because you can't incarcarate half the population. If everyone pirated we'd have a better world and AAA companies would go bankrupt. Pirate all you can. Say how you're a pirate (obviously, not somewhere where you are indentifiable), and teach others how to pirate.

>>16193442

Please fuck off back to cuckold chan

>>16193432

I am really busy, but I try it later maybe.

>>16193442

Are you fucking retarded mate?

Meh.

It's so aesthetically unpleasing to have nothing but mud huts and loncloths

>build one flint spear

<Thank you for playing

Banisheds base game is pretty shallow. Can this one be compared to it?

>>16193432

>makes city builder about cavemen

>city

>cavemen

right. Developer should've known that most humans were nomadic up until the late Neolithic and even then only Egypt, Nubia, Syria, Minoa and Sumeria had cities of some kind. Most of what this game is depicting is Bronze age for Europe.

Core game doesn't really cut it, you've probably seen everything in about 8 hours. Here's hoping the modding community makes it better.

A shame, I was looking forward to this.

Fucking based.

>>16210349

I've heard somewhere that even during bronze age, common people only had stone tools because bronze was so expensive. You would have to import either copper or tin since they don't practically co-exist in same region (or worse, both.) Early iron was in many ways inferior to bronze but was so much more common that people started using it and eventually found ways to make it better. Supposedly at one point in Roman history officers/elite troops had superior bronze sword while more common footman carried iron swords (possibly made from something we'd call cast iron or pig iron these days.) Eventually steel would completely replace bronze in most applications.

>>16197637

The phrase isn't literal you actual autist. Sure, once every decade or so somewhere on the globe a woman hunted an animal, I could believe that

>>16211857

Its pretty much only called the Bronze age because of Sumeria and Egypt anyway. They were using it but everywhere else had to wait.

This notion that Europe was hyper developed is a fallacy of modern times. Europe was very backwards thinking compared to the Levant hence why it only got Agriculture and walled cities far too late (the levant had these as early as the late Mesolithic (stone) period. Coming to its adoption during the Agricultural Revolution.)

Throw Dawn of Man onto the pile of games that got it wrong along with that god awful FarCry Primal game.

=WE WAZN'T? SHIEET==

Funny thing with that is that the late stone tools look like copper and bronze tools because humans are vain and want to look like they have the latest tech even though they can't afford it.

Europe first started growing at the end of the iron age with Charlemagne's feudal reforms. It was thanks to them that the continent united itself and innovation was fostered.

Since the lords were directly affected by the gains of innovations and were expected to keep their subjects mostly happy it meant that agricultural and technological progress skyrocketed.

My feelings after reaching bronze age.

>you aren't actually nomadic at the start

>this means that sources of food around you will both sustain a large population and replenish relatively quickly

>unlocking wheat domestication is instant win

>unlocking animal domestication is instant win x2

>entire neolithic age sets you up massively for the following ages

>it takes annoyingly long to build walls around your village

>can't build walls into the water so that the enemy has to go into the water - rivers aren't natural barriers

>watchtowers are made out wet paper

>hunting is simplistic, but serviceable

>except if you want to hunt/catch something far away from your village, then you have to babysit your people or else they'll die from starvation/thirst/wolfs/old age (yes)

>combat is too simplistic

>wooden and bone tools are okay-ish, but they are very similar to one another

>flint tools are your workhorse until bronze

>copper tools are 'exactly' as durable and effective as flint tools, thus not even worth making

>first iron tools are better than bronze tools

>copper and tin are lying fucking everywhere

Either the whole game is like that or the "baby's first run" is way too long and forgiving.
