World War 5 was the best one imo. Every one after that became a cheap, buggy cashgrab
I mean, you can only really do the whole nuclear holocaust like once every few thousand years or it'll get old.
Yeah I mean after the death of general W. P. war wasn't the same.
Yeah but it was kinda toned down from World War IV: featuring Dante from Devil May Cry.
Wow, not only anticipating that there will be another 9 world wars, but that we will even reset our dating system again to start counting the years later.
This is like Star Wars. The others are prequels
This should actually be written as "WORLD WAR XI".
Outchie (if real). I also find the wording super weird, it's not like they're sad that ww "11" is dead/over, I hope? Sure "In memory of the lifes lost in WW2" is longer but ...
Pic is from 2016 or older... So, it's not AI art... Could be photoshopped, but I don't think so. Found it on an old hard drive yesterday.. Wording is maybe weird, because it may be located in Germany. At least, that's where I'm from and I got that pic somehow....
Easy fix: ' + '
An interesting read if you're into that kind of thing, there have been multiple global conflicts that didn't get the title, but could be considered a "world war"
I heard people calling the Cold War WWIII which wasn't as cold as the name might suggest, at least outside of Europe and north America.
I also like the idea of calling the War Against Terror that or maybe – since WWI was call the War to End All Wars – it could be called the Second War to End All Wars.
Besides the numerical error, who says in memory of ? Do they miss it ?
time travel makes recording timeline events difficult
They presumably wanted to write World War II with Roman numerals, but needed to use uppercase i's in this particular font
World Wars 4 through 9 were quick little spats, mostly regarding food customs disputes such as pineapple on pizza.
