Not our war to fight.

>why can't a RPG made in 2011 for consoles support 9,700,000 sprites!
Fuck off.
Anthony Williams
Mod it, that's the answer to every Bethesda game.
Anthony Miller
Why aren't wars fought like this anyway? Imagine if instead of butchering millions of men in WW2 axis and allies just picked a 1000 gigachaddest warrirors on each side and had them decide it in an open field.
Jayden Richardson
This
Not a single 3D TES, even Any Forumss beloved Morrowind, is made to scale.
If you care about scale, play Daggerfall (the only good TES)
Connor Green
Not good for business. War needs hundreds of millions of customers to profit from.
Jeremiah White
Realistically scaled environments and set pieces are unfeasible with console technology in mind, and also generally not very fun to explore either because it is near impossible to put enough meaningful content all over the now massive game world.
Henry Sanders
They shouldn't even try to make cities and battles if they can't manage to make it feel even half-believable. I don't know why but Bethesda keeps doing this, trying to make epic moments, and it just comes off as pathetic.
Because the losing side would have no reason not to just keep fighting after, especially if a lot is at stake. Such duels did play a part in warfare though, but it was most prominent in small-scale tribal warfare where tribes that didn't have manpower to spear did not want their men dying in great numbers. Or if men just wanted to look very chivalrous.

I never saw a war in my Skirym playthroughs
What do I do
Jayden Sanchez
Why don't the presidents fight the wars?
Nathan Collins
the game still gets released today
they kept on reselling the same trash game for a decade now, they could change something

Because the elite will now and forever exploit those beneath them for their own gain. Why risk your life when Timmy the high school dropout enlists because he likes call of duty?
Ryan Myers
Too much at stake and you can't really enforce it. If Putin wants to use ballistic missiles then he's going to use them. You by proxy then have no choice but to invest in such weapons unless you want to get curbstomped in a future war.
Brayden Bell
Dude I just realized having simulated army battles in Daggerfall's framework would be sick
Isaac Turner
In regards to the scale of a whole ass country you clown. I can't believe I even have to clarify this.
Jaxson Brown
>shouldnt try to make battles if they cant make it believable
This game has dragons in it, retard
Adam Wilson
this is just the ole "lets just let wrestling tobblers decide the wars" idea.
Brody Garcia
Are you wondering why a 11 year old game can't handle 9,700,000 NPCs on screen?
Eli Smith
But why do they always send the poor?
Austin Turner
Until they make Elderscrolls games with the same scale as Daggerfall(1996) view all of the smaller scaled continents as romanticized and consolidated forms of the Elderscrolls world. I suspect that in the future we'll be rolling around in Mount and Blade type of fast travel interfaces (with the option to actually hoof it across Tamriel but like Daggerfall it'll take hours to maybe even days to reach your destination). I expect things to get pretty interesting in Elderscrolls 8 or 9.

>dumb faggot tries to be smart
if they start launching dildos out of their ass it will be jarring even if you would enjoy it, dumbfuck
Juan Rodriguez
because we haven't had a president of serving age. biden and trump were both in their 70s

Says the retard who said games shouldn’t even try to replicate things from the real world if they can’t get it 100% accurate

Whatever I just live with my minotaur wife in peace.
Luis Campbell
I think you have a fairly tenuous grasp on language, and the entire concept of fiction in general. The whole purpose of fiction is to draw you in, and make the location, no matter how much it may differ from this reality, feel believable. If it isn't internally consistent, anyone who isn't a complete halfwit will notice, and his enjoyment will suffer as a consequence.
Hudson Perez
>games shouldn’t even try to replicate things from the real world if they can’t get it 100% accurate
Yes.
Levi Stewart
It's about how the NPCs are designed and how resource-heavy they are. Skyrim's NPCs are badly designed and that's why they weigh down the whole game.
Josiah Nelson
moments like these will always ruin games for me
Nolan Adams
Why doesn't every nation just send their strongest guy to fight the other nation's strongest guy?
David Nguyen
behold, the midwit
Camden Rivera
But what if our guy loses?
Connor Jackson
im sad i dont get many reasons to use these anymore

>bu-buh its and old game
Shogun 2 came out in the same year and it had massive battles with thousands of mens.
Bentley Hughes
In that screenshot from AC Unity is probably as many NPCs as there are in the whole of Skyrim
Gavin Garcia
>USA population: ~300,000,000
>number of people fighting in a territory "war" between two gangs: 10
Same thing. Why would most people care.
Eli Phillips
Shogun is an rts
Sebastian Ortiz
unironically kill yourself
Daniel Anderson
unity was pretty good
Caleb Wood
and? that has no effect on performance.
James Gray
Because that's how you get Idiocracy to happen. People would vote in their favourite wrestler instead of anyone who knows what they're doing with the country.

Total war didnt have a problem in 2010

Why do they even have to fight? Why not just an arm wrestling competition? Best out of 3.

Whatever country or city you're from, there is very likely a war or some tension between the two leading syndicates happening right now. Go fight.
Brandon Clark
user, the map size in game is scaled down, in lore the map is much bigger.
Austin Bennett
It's also not the middle ages and whatever country I live in is likely to not have mandatory levies or conscription like the middle ages you absolute fucking braindead faggot.
I repeat: kill yourself.
Joseph Baker
I don't remember Skyrim claiming they drafted the whole population.
