I'm not buying Rise of Republic

[Stratigeni]

I've bought nearly every game & DLC that CA has produced for TW.
But, There are way too many women in the game now. It looks plain silly.

Yes, I know ambitious woman made their mark throughout history.
But, they weren't as prevalent as the game suggest.

Empire Divided Spams women as if all ancient nations were ruled via matriarchy.

Call me what you will, I could care less! Ima keep my $$ this time.

SavageSavant actually got banned for his actions in another thread (along with a couple of others), but having looked over this thread I'm confident in that decision. This thread isn't quite as much of a garbage fire as that one but it's not far off.

Firstly, I'll say it again: Total War games are historically authentic, not historically accurate - if having female units upsets you that much you can either mod them out or just not play. People saying they won't buy the game because there are too many women in it is fine with us - if that's their reason, we'd rather they didn't anyway.

Reasonable, civil discussions don't get locked. Discussions that spiral into personal attacks and prominently feature words like "cuck", "SJW", "feminazi", and any directions are locked for a reason.

Just be nice to each other, guys. That's all.

Mock me if you like, but whether I say it to your face or, from behind a PC ....I could care less how you feel about it.

What the left doesn't understand is the freespeech protects hatespeech. Freespeech protects all speech regardless of how foul it can be. I bet many people in Europe are wishing for a first ammendment right now.

And what people on the right don't understand is that First Amendment protections ONLY apply to the government. The government can't make laws regulating speech. Individuals and private corporations can respond to your speech however they want, provided they don't break other laws in doing so. In other words, your hate speech does in fact have consequences.

Well i can confirm that this thread did indeed get nasty haha. As for me i never said that i didn't like women. Infact at the start i said it was ok because the women in factions do make sense in the factions they are in. It's to bad things got nasty.

No need to beg for forgiveness. She probably read all our posts. She has the most objective view on how we acted

you honestly sound pretty stupid. If you don't like our game than screw you dont buy it. Even though you've probably been buying them since the very first total war. LOL what a way to kill your player base. People buy the historical games because they want them to be historically accurate. we don't need you feminazies bringing todays politics into historical games. If you want to be like EA go for it lol the amount of hate they got for B5 was incredible. If you want that kind of backlash from your fans be my guest. We will simply save our money and move on to bigger and better things.

Even with female generals, Rome 2 is still more historically accurate than Rome 1.

I didn't clarify to avoid a warning or misunderstanding. I now what i said and i simply told her a what i said. i enforced what i said.

Well i was on here looking into the DLC (female commanders etc do not bother me) over zelous mods do though i saw just as much mud slinging from supporters of the female castings, yet only he gets blocked. So if we dont like a feature we get banned il be giving this a miss as well shame as it looked ok.

Lol true but rome 2 had the least amount of play time of any TW game on my list i was looking to see what was added to make it more interesting Warhammer TW and Medieval 2 cake walk Rome 2 for me. and as stated above the female commanders do not bother me however im not supporting a company employeeing overzelous mods.

Whether you agreed with that guys perspective or not (personally i find the idea strange but interesting from a how it could have been perspective) i saw nothing there to get him banned that other people throwing personal insults around had not done just as bad. To me it looks like a banning based of 1 mod not liking the fact someone had an opposite oppinion.
