I've been to Hallstatt this summer. If you have time I recommend visiting the place. Next to it there is Königsee which is a UNESCO heritage site. Königsee itself is a tarn and you can literally drink from it. For this reason they only

Good point. Do you have strategies which you used to convince your friends to start using Telegram?

I am not representative because I had only 3-4 experiences with developers from India but my two cents include a dev who was not aware how a checkbox works, an app which was written by devs from India and they used a "secret" key

I will definitely try SC:FA. For some reason I skipped it after the SC fiasko and SC2's non-flow economy was a no-go for me. Thanks for the info!

I've already said the problems with SC. It was a very bland and plain successor. They recognized this and tried to bring it up to the level of TA with SC:FA but it is not as good as Total Mayhem or TA:Escalation. Try them out and you w

The main problem is the resource management. In TA there is a continuous transmission of resources so you will build (albeit slowly) even if there is an outage. SC:FA on the other hand works like Red Alert. You buy something (like if you we

I own Planetary Annihilation. It is a horrible successor to TA. No use of terrain, boring units and terrible UX. I currenlty play Total Mayhem (TA mod) and TA:Escalation.

I am still waiting for a strategy game which gets near to the Total Annihilation experience (the most satisfying strategy experience I had so far). I am waiting since 1997 (20 years)! What I would like to see is real use of terrain features

You obviously haven't played a single game. I feel sorry for everyone who haven't played games like Mass Effect or Half-Life or Dwarf Fortress even. Playing the right games is way better than watching a movie or a series. Not to m
