Apparently, mine was Neverwinter Nights 2 : Platinium. Didn't played it much, compared to NN1. Then it's an overly long list of CK II and EU III DLCs
For all those rushing to ask, yes my first Steam game was Left 4 Dead, and it did indeed define my identity for a long time.
Someone posted a question about the history of Steam; the rumble you hear in the distance is a landslide of Redditors whose identities are defined by which 2000s-era videogames they played on their way to leave a 2-3 sentence anecdote about how much they hated Steam when it launched.

This week on the blog: Coins! Contrasting historical coinage with the vision of ancient coinage presented through 'gold' in fantasy fiction.

What were coins used for, why did much economic activity remain non-coinage and what do you use when you aren't using coins?

This week on the blog I want to take a brief detour into discussing historical coinage, particularly in the context of modern fantasy and roleplaying settings. In particular, the notions I want to …

I celebrate Xmas by family tradition, but as a military historian of the Hellenistic (c. 300-100 BCE) Mediterranean, Hanukkah is the holiday that falls within my professional bailiwick.

So, a Hanukkah themed military history 🧵

Frankly, one of the Great Articles and a useful one to just have in the mental file drawer at all times.
We Do Not Know the Population of Every Country in the World for the Past Two Thousand Years.

Open access. Really good.
And I appreciate journal articles with blunt names.

Y a-t-il un "techno-féodalisme" ? Cette comparaison est très présente en ce moment...
Petit fil pour montrer 1/ pourquoi le concept est peu pertinent scientifiquement et 2/ pourquoi cette comparaison s'inscrit dans une histoire longue du médiévalisme ⬇️ #medievalists #medievalsky

They say all roads lead to Rome, but these #History pathways branch out. @jibec.bsky.social wrote up a fantastic thread on the #history of roads in Gaul, how they compared to their Roman equivalent, and how they would eventually be subsumed into the growing imperial network.
