What beautiful play on shadows and reflections! Didn’t know this artist, but it’s awesome

At this point I wonder if there are some internal politics that want this project to fail and be over. 70 price tag, live service but only on ubisoft platform, ignoring the most demanded features, etc.

It’s like they are tired of a project that was a money black hole for years and they just want to pull the plug.

I love Sufjan Stevens, but I don’t see the comparison. While I really love his lyrics (one of the few I actually like them, I usually find most artist lyrics to be plain and way too cheesy), his music is very simple compared to a behemoth like Mozart.

Mozart was able to write highly complex music very fast, that went from deep themes to silly ones, and enjoyed popularity from both critics and public, which is something quite rare.

I don’t which one would be the closest today. Maybe something like Williams or Ennio Morricone.

Messiah was actually part of the first dune in the original design, although Herbert later splitted it.

Children is something else, even if it shares the characters, it’s very much a setup for God Emperor. It has very different themes and style. Same with Heretics.

IMHO Dune is better seen as three duologies: Dune+Messiah, Children+God Emperor and Heretics and Chapterhouse.

Haven’t tasted olive oil from Turkey, but Greek oil is very good, stronger than most Italian or Spanish. But it’s very expensive, and it’s suffering more from droughts and fires.

Portuguese is the same as southern Spain, mostly Picual variety. However it’s not really much cheaper despite what the article claims, unless you go for shit quality.

IMHO go for the cheapest in your area that is extravirgin certified and the variety you like.

That’s the traditional italian way. Instead of using hard dry mozzarella that can be grated, you get super soft fresh mozzarella and slice and put on top.

That’s sick! There are many fantasy ranges in 3d that imho are even better than GWs, and they are gonna explore im popularity with old world. Last Sword are my favorite, so much character.

Not to mention, Pomegranate in Spanish is Granada, literally Grenade. It’s also one of the more famous regions in Spain, and it exports a lot of that fruit, which, as is usually the csse, has both Spanish and Portuguese on the labels to reduce costs.

No one in Portugal should jump to that conclusion unless they are ridiculously xenophobic.

The texture healing technique is technically brilliant, but imho looks weird.

I will stick to Source Code Pro.

3.0 and 3.3 were big on optimization iirc.

They also moved to the custodian system which makes stellaris easily the most polished and stable of all of Paradox games
