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 I say Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, dear reader of this post, and good afternoon! How are you today, on this wonderful season that now reaches its peak? How was your day yesterday? Did you eat much, like I did? I mean, it were some slices of cake, and a lovely lunch, so probably not that much, but maybe a healthy amount... Did you get anything interesting? Let me know! My friend Nik gifted me Humankind, a game I cannot wait to try it out when it is released on April 22nd of next year (hopefully it won't receive any delay). I also got the earbuds I talked about! I made some Christmas cards also, that I shared with you guys already! And I managed to sénd some time with grandma and family, so it was a perfect Christmas, even if, unfortunately, Grandpa is not around. I have a lovely painting to share with you guys, one that I found on my researches this morning, talking about the history of ice skating in Russia! We should jump to it!


This, I believe, is a scene of recent days, according to the clothes people are using, still is a lovely piece, reminds me of the art of Anno 1800! I remember going to ice skating on the mall when I was a kid! Since I am in the tropics, it wasn't in a natural enviroment, of course, but still was quite magical! I miss ice skating, really, though those skating boots are super uncomfortable! I wish I could roller skate as well, reminds me of the disco days, but I don't know if I want to go out of my way for some nostalgic trip... I've been called a grandpa for keeping a blog, apparently this is so out of fashion now, on a time where people don't like to read much (Okay, I will admit, I used to read more books than I am at the moment, BUT, one thing that I learnt is that even with audiobooks and stuff, the real important thing is just to get some knowledge). I mean, witht he grandparents that I have, I will take that as a compliment! I envy my grandma, she even got some art this Christmas, gifted from her sister, my aunt! Such a lovely piece! I want to rest a bit further today, so this post will just be a small Merry Christmas and let's have a quick chit chat one. I appreciate you so much for being here, reading my words! I hope to see you real soon, maybe even tomorrow, even if I'm not settled on writing this Saturday. One thing is for sure, this month has been a better month than November, for my life and for my blog! So yea, cheers to that!
