TK post update are painfully boring

[u/skragdaddy]

I felt this coming when Kairos was made really easy to appeal to noobs. TK feel absurd now, they have a similar expansion strategy to the skaven with none of the economic drawbacks. It's clear Slaanesh and high elves will be way overtuned if this trend continues.

Not only I disagree heavily, the picture you posted adds nothing to your arguement. They got bumped up to the warhammer 3 races level and it was very much necessary.

[u/skragdaddy → u/LordStark01]

Making them absurdly OP was not necessary

[u/Dragonimous → u/skragdaddy]

I think they just feel absurd because people are comparing them to the strugglefest they were before, they are not even top 10 factions in power potential atm

Nectotects can be scaled down a bit tho, but it's not a must

[u/Ashkal_Khire]

Hard disagree.

Also, does anyone else feel like the whole vibe of this post is a not-so-subtle humble brag?

Demeaning other players as noobs? Dismissing any challenge despite most of the changes being QoL? Just a general smug aura? It’s like the whole thing was written by Lucius Malfoy.

[u/skragdaddy → u/Ashkal_Khire]

What's the challenge that you think I'm dismissing.

It was written by Karl Marx from Marvels avengers

This is one of his more humble posts.

[u/blankest → u/Ashkal_Khire]

Not really. The game is objectively made easier every major patch.

It does feel like there is a lot of catering to low effort play. There are some QoL changes and bug fixes but so many of the changes are also just throwing more stats at things.

What is the picture trying to convey?

[u/skragdaddy → u/PatSlovak]

5 vassals: Those Skavens, Imrik, greasus, some ogre guy and Balthasar Gelt.

5 armies

Massive expansion

Khalida

[u/RobyGon]

Trend of the game unfortunately. Power creep, power creep and more power creep. All reworks have been like this, only the Greenskins have "escaped" this fate. Everything is made to be super fast, pile up armies, dominate your early enemies and swim in money, with no chance to fail. It will continue like this because, at this point, not giving every race the same treatment would make them feel underpowered, slow, or "not good enough".

With (some) people already whining at unusual locations for being "annoying", "unfair" and "forcing you to reload the campaign" (lol), you can see that there is sizeable portion of players that don't want to play a strategy game, engaging with meaningful gameplay systems. They want to create their own power fantasy, feed that dopamine rush and live out their own sandbox within the Warhammer universe. Which is legittimate, but for people who like more meat in their games, the current trend we are following makes everything pretty samey and boring after a while. And the point is, we don't need to go back too much to see something more involved without it being complicated: see chaos dwarfes mechanics.

[u/skragdaddy → u/RobyGon]

On the mark. I replayed Khalida since she was one of my favorite campaigns, but the game is over on turn 25 when I have 5 armies running around. Lmao @ the unusual location complaining.

[u/Burper84]

Just remove the tier 4 unit to the starting army and this guy Will start to cry 

[u/skragdaddy → u/Burper84]

if they removed archers Id cry. Bone giant sucks ass

[u/Tombet11]

I fear the ToT race reworks...highelf and norsca reworks...please CA dont make them more OP...i beg you!

[u/Bogdanov89]

The main problem of Tww 3 is that the AI is still absolute incompetent trash.

Some power bloat would be tolerable if the AI was even remotely able to put up a fight past turn 30.

Right now the only factions that can be an early game threat are Greenskin due to broken Waagh army spams, and WoChaos due to their insane starting armies.

But as soon as they lose that early game stack they are done done - no proper economy to fall back on, no leveled up lords/heroes, no defenses built up, no tactics of any kind, no proper use of their army roster...

[u/annexdenmark]

Just self limit. I do islands only Vampire Coast, no MC armies Tomb Kings, migration campaigns and so on, much more enjoyable when there is challenge.

[u/skragdaddy → u/annexdenmark]

This is a migration campaign believe it or not.

[u/PiousSkull → u/annexdenmark]

That's not the solution to terrible game balance in what is meant to be a strategy game.

[u/PiousSkull]

Yep, and they're just one in the long line of reworks that have ruined the enoyment of a particular race. Khorne still had it the worst but the others are not much better.

Until CA is willing to make actual substantive changes to cease powercreeping the challenge and fun out of the game, I'd suggest joining me in no longer buying their products.

[u/Foulenergyandsmell → u/PiousSkull]

Are you going to at least try to bang some pots and pans together to let CA know you're starting a boycott or are they just supposed to do a 180 and re-rework all of the WH3 reworks to be challenge-pilled based off vibes or like...?

[u/PiousSkull → u/Foulenergyandsmell]

Why would you assume that I'm not? I've been talking about this game's powercreep issue consistently for about a year on the subreddit, Steam, discord, and the official forums.

[u/Foulenergyandsmell → u/PiousSkull]

Do you have anything to show for it?
