We're about to start the third chapter, which I'm dreading a bit as a GM, any advice?

there's also the energy demand and the environmental implications. Not that these arguments would tip the scales of the discussion in our favor, since we've been dancing around climate change for fifty years.
Fuck me, what a shitshow of a time we live in.

I’ve spent six years learning three languages and train as a linguistic mediator, just to be told such drivel, and to find almost no jobs in my field.
God fucking damn it.
God fucking damn it.

In Italy and in France it was used to teach kids in middle school latin, since the original names are all puns in latin or literary french.
It's also full of little digs and satirical stuff on Italian culture, case in point: the permit A38.

So true, CA it’s not a perfect company but it’s one of the better ones, at the very least with their employees.
I don’t know how much they pay their community managers, but it’s not nearly enough.
The amount of entitlement and vitriol these basement dwellers spew is truly astonishing.

I naïvely thought it referred to the 4 or more resources you have to juggle in these games. Also, as non-native English speaker, that definition by alliteration wouldn’t really make much sense.

It doesn’t help that I’m a huge fan of Endless Space 2, where the fun resides in being an awful living being.
The busillis lies in the fact that even trying to win morally and with the best intentions, you’re often forced into committing atrocities in order to be efficient or to defend yourself.

The board game abstraction never made me realise what kind of colonial monster these games transform you in. You made me notice it, and since then I feel awful after a few turns.

It might be a workaround to avoid clipping with the cheekbones during the facial animations.
Btw, love your videos, you completely ruined Civ and other 4Xs with your dissertation of Civilization 5 for me.
Keep up the good work!

In the 12th century everyone joked about priests and viscounts having more children than anyone. Not to mention the surname Esposito, which was given to orphans left to convents and churches. The repression of sexual expression was never a thing back then, at least not until the Victoria Era.

Also, in the Southern Provinces (which is a great melting pot) there’re siege shock troops sporting wing-suits that speak like RAF pilots. Scale has nothing to do with narrow representations.

What you’re saying is true, but only in the collective imagination for Warhammer Fantasy, since the lore is old and obscure. Every province of the Empire has its accents and dialects, and you can go nuts with it. I always imagined Hochlanders speaking like gun-toting Texans.
