In Which the Civ 5 mod Vox Populi has balance issues...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this post! Wish you a happy Friday, and an excellent weekend that is to come next! How are you? How have you been across the week? As for me, I am okay, overall. The weather on my end has been more consistent, as the days have been relatively hot over a number of them. Not ideal, I hope for more rain to cone at some point!  I, for some reason, decided to take the dust off Civ 6, and play it a bit. I trust this is due my Civ 5 current fatigue. Is it my favorite civ? Absolutely. But that said, as I already saw what I wanted on the vanilla, I did mention this time and again, I have since shifted towards mods such as the big Vox Populi one. That gave this entry a rich afterlife with me, specially as Civ 6 fail to sit well overall.  Alas, this mod is not a silver bullet to revitalize a game that I have play more than enough at this point. I am happy to still try it, but this particular mod has a huge issue concerning wars, which is borderline...

In Which Age of Empires III is about to get a new expansion!

Good morning, dear reader of this post, and happy Friday (the 13th), how are you? How are things? I do wish you the best and hope things are okay! Here, the weather keeps getting more bearable, one step at a time, as winter and the cooler rains and winds are coming, I'm happy for it! Corn season is also arriving soon, which is crazy, considering we were celebrating Easter just some days back! In spite of the college hardships, that for many reasons, including many self inflicted, and some bills to pay, it should be a better one, May was better than April that was better than March. I am happily waiting for my shoes to arrive here, cannot wait to take pictures of them to share with you all, and most importantly, I can't wait to wear them and see they are comfortable and pleasant! On that steam of things, I also hope to do some drawings, and speaking of which, I started to retrace a plan to get an iPad, so I can start digging into digital art, somehow! It is definitely a plan for the future, we shall see how it goes! And I also should do some drawings in the traditional paper and ink as well, now that I have a perfect desk that makes me so happy! In fact, with this desk is another reason to get an iPad, as now I have extra space to do what I want to do!

Speaking of plans, I'm so excited because Age of Empires 3 is coming with a new expansion soon, which I already pre-ordered it. I normally wouldn't pre order it, but this one, covering the Mediterranean, adding civs such as Italy and Malta, new maps in Europe, finally, everything seems really exciting so far!

It's fun how fast I lose the grip on writing, like, I was here, then I get distracted, then now that I'm back I seen to have lost some purpose. I know when I say it seems like the new DLC for AOE3 seems little, but really, I am very excited to see how it will go, and it's delivering some features I've been waiting for in a while! It was enough to make me super excited to the point of preordering it!

In other news, I need a haircut, but I also need to pay off my bills, don't want them to grow further this month, I have a drawing to finish, I like the looks of it and I hope I may soon revisit it! Got discouraged somehow recently, as some say they look the same. But... I dunno, I like to draw what I draw.

The post is getting a bit on the longer side, but before I wrap things up, I was again thinking of featuring some drawings here yet again! Who knows? I may deliver it! Anyway, now it's the point of me wrapping things up, and I must say thank you for being here, for reading, means the world to me! Wish you the very best and I see you again real soon!
