In Which Civilization has a SimCity moment, a bad omen

Hello there, my good friend, kind reader of this post! Happy Friday! Hopefully another beautiful day, maybe we should indeed give it the benefit of the doubt! How are you, my friend? How have you been? I have not write much these days, alas... It is that thing of having some stuff in my head but not being able to take them out to my satisfaction. I mean, we could as well be seeing the collapse of the Civilization franchise, for example. I think I wrote it before here, that I am not optimistic about this title, that their heart (if at all) is in the wrong place for this entry... I could smell the miasma, but now it is clear: reality is even worse than the predictions and projections of before. The Steam consensus, this morning, got as low as 33%, an absolute catastrophic number for the franchise, it is a snapshot of the bad User Interface, the lack of customisation on the game, its mechanics ossifying the main building, or ot is what is implied on even the milder of reviews.

In which we talk about a beautiful porcelain sculpture!

Hello and good afternoon everyone!! We're here on the beginning of another week, and I hope everything may be great for all of us! To celebrate this, I wanted to share with you all a picture that will bring us to the year of 2017!

But, this picture I'm talking about was taken before the storm, in the end of my vacations. I just graduated from school and was about to start college, it was a mild period of my life, with some anxiety moments because I had no idea what college would be like, but overall not bad at all! Here's the picture I'm talking about:


This is probably my favorite picture I took in 2017 and portraits this wonderful porcelain sculpture of two amazingly dressed nobles from the 18th century having a relaxed moment. I just love Rococo and the art from the mid 18th century, and this definitely sounds like it, which pleases me way too much. At the background we have a garden, which I think fitted the moment well. Those sophisticated carefree moments are indeed something to be celebrated, as are memories of past vacations of life. 
And here we are, at the end of another post! I'm so happy to have you here, reading this! I hope you liked it, and I see you soon for more!
