In Which I like Birthdays and Dislike Late Afternoons

I want to wish you a good morning, dear friend, reader of the present post. There has been a difficult set of days. Immense anxiety, and agony that is quite hard to explain. Self doubt has been a constant. I wrote the apology here, and just opened up my heart over the woes of the mind and what was lost in translation, towards Adam, and the fact it was a good thing, I think, it also caused in me immense anguish. I want to say that he is an immense and extraordinary human no matter if I never get closure on my end or not. Sadness is no excuse to ever naysay anyone. But sadness there is. That wall of deep fog, the one that is a wall, a blank curtain that allows for no continuation. That is how I feel. And the desperation of the void. Perhaps one could tell as depression, I do not desire to use the clinical language here. Just quiet desperation. And lonely melancholia.  That said, today I am, for some hours, okay.

In which we talk about the Soundtrack of Anno 1800!

Hello everyone! Happy Saturday and Weekend! Wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? I hope all is well! How is the weather where you are? Here it is hot, hot and hot, wish it was fresher, but no, unfortunately the weather has other plans for my region, and so be it, well I have my fans, wish I could turn on the AC but I guess it's too early for it, anyways, I have something to share with you guys today! It is about Anno as well!!!



So, the soundtrack of this game, in contrast to Anno 1404, is less progressive in terms of how you build your city, which means it doesn't change overtime, so being more static, but even so extremely beautiful and cinematographic, in fact I think this was the objective of the whole game, to be both cinematographic and a videogame, which is a tendency these days, much more than it was in Anno 1404, which is fine, the games are different, even if they share similarities, I love them both, I'm just sad that Anno 1404 is so poorly optimized, always crashing on computer, even on my new one, that is better than my old one, anyway, back to the soundtrack, it is calm and formal, gracious and discrete, just like the victorian aesthetic of the 19th century, a century that valued dignity, discrete behavior, politeness and everything related to it, the same for this Soundtrack. And it doesn't stop there, it has some latin vibes to it too, inches and hints of it here and there, which is more than amazing in my opinion! Definitely worth the try! Anno has such a wonderful soundtrack, I should write more about it in the future if I can! And well this is what I have to offer for today! Thank you so much for being here dear reader, you are the very best! Hope to see you again next time! Happy Weekend to you!
PS: Here is my Anno 1800 Logo, isnt it cute? I love it so much!!!
